The government is slowly changing into authoritarian regime. Its a shame to call our own country “democratic”. And here we now, the regime has ban and disallow this and that. What a great day!

Walkovers – As long as the People accept.
Films act – As long as the People accept.

And they seem to have for GRC system and Walkovers and they accept not able to vote when walkover.

This is one of the real reasons that is why the system still stands, imho.

I am left with skilled migration.

It makes us all feel like we are frogs in a pool of gradual boiling water. I think this nation is marching towards enforcing marshal laws in the guise of terrorism up surging. What’s next in line? Am I seeing a repeat of the 1949 revolution in the brewing? What a pity. This time round, it’s all white though. White uniforms, White notebook, White scarf, White hair, White-house? Oh well, why bother anymore. Time to move on to better pastures. Damn, it reminds of the Willy Nelson’s “On the Road again”.

Beggining to feel some light touches?
After a few more months of touching, elections will come on – say around October 2009.
All those who bare their teeth on the web – get ready to put your money where your words are if you dare to be true to yourselves.

Strange government. It allows its own mainstream media and media companies to report and show protest oversea whether the protest is legal or not legal, but yet don’t allow that to happen locally ?

What a double standard !

The determination of legality is usually the preserve of the judiciary, not the film makers. Hence the new amendments to the Film Act shall effectively stifle the non-MSM coverage of political criticism and dissent.

This is clear evidence that the government does not respect the rights of the People.

It is a very sad day for me as a Singaporean.

The Asst Manpower Minister is saying that 70,000 citizens are unemployed. Many are professionals. That means that probably more than 120,000 people (citizens and foreigners) are unemployed. This is the highest unemployment in Singapore’s history. Is the government anticipating unrest? Are they thinking of quelling the unrest quietly?
