This blog is about the political struggle I am engaging in Singapore. The title "Singapore Alternatives" is chosen because my only political dream is to build a true alternative in Singapore. Alternative to PAP government, of course. As the Alternative, the political party must be able to have the visions and policy insights to lead Singapore. I will write on various policy views and personal beliefs that I think is crucial in building up the Alternative. All constructive comments are welcome.

PAP's Core Value --- Greed
Greed has no boundary. Oil prices dropped by 40% since June this year but look what Singaporeans get:
1) Pathetic "token" decrease of pump prices by the cartel and neither CASE nor PAP government say anything or do anything about it.
2) Well, as if that is not enough, electricity tariff controlled by government didn't decrease accordingly as well, giving crap reason that our power station run on gas, not oil. But the last time we heard when oil price increased and gas price was stagnant, they increase the electricity tariff anyway, giving crap reason that the gas price is pegged and hedged to oil prices! Win liao lor!
3) As if all these are not enough to squeeze every bits from Singaporeans, now they want to increase public transport fares! Last time they increase fares citing increasing fuel cost due to high oil prices but now, when oil prices plunge, they give other excuses to increase fare despite having very healthy and high profits...
Guess it is not difficult for anyone to conclude that Greed is PAP's core value from all these happenings.
Goh Meng Seng
Mr Goh,
ReplyDeleteI really cannot understand how Singaporeans like you came to the conclusion that the Government earns money from you. Does the PAP own Shell or Mobil?
This sort of rethoric only makes you appear to distort the truth for your personal agenda. Much like how the Worker's Party believe that civil servants cannot do their jobs in a fair and just manner.
Greed is a bottomless pit which exhausts the person in an endless effort to satisfy the need without ever reaching satisfaction. See the link below for more info.
