I’ve seen spirits hovering beside me as I dig their grave, heard them whisper to me ‘Ah Tee’ (young man), please don’t move me.

But I guess the dead won’t be resting in peace as long as the PAP Government prohibits them to withdraw their CPF when they are alive.

I guess this article is about the rapid urbanization of Singapore with little regards for anything else. Global warming is at hand. Mother Nature is being fired up. & yet, PAP continues to build at a pace that would put Sim City to shame.

To some or perhaps most people, especially the PAP, economic gains through urbanization are so much more important than Mother Earth’s well-being. That is disturbing.

For all you know, sooner or later, Earth could be rendered unable to support human life or a giant comet could hit Earth & destroy it, & what do humans have to show for? Apart from great inventions & advancements that benefited mankind, also mass destructions of nature & animals with urbanization. Humans are defacing Earth.

Homo sapiens have over-thrived & are now threatening the rest of Earth with their existence as long as they continue to compromise the natural world for the creation of the urban world.

Ghosts aside….why cant they leave that patch of teochew cemetary in peace, there is very few greenery left in singapore. that piece of cemetary land is also part of our heritage, our roots and why cant we let our forefather rest in peace?

I dont know much about the outside world but when it comes to destroying the local eco sys, u know who that is. What is so ironical is when they have ads of poly teens telling us to be eco friendly, ha ha,,,,,, when large plot of land, our historic buildings, our old flats are demolished to build condos for the rich while the poor and those who cant afford it are sidelined. my pri sch is now an expensive hotel for foreigners while those living near boon lay centre are driven from their hdb flats and then those are in turn rented out to other people.

money money making money, is that really so impt, can u bring that into ur grave someday. if u are able to have a ok life and sufficient money to see urself through old age, money to see the doc when u are sick, what else do the big elites want, MORE?
