People's Power Party New Year Message 2019
People's Power Party New Year Message 2019
2018 is a terribly challenging year for Singapore’s Democratic development. Although 2018 is coming to an end but we believe the Democratic situation will further worsen in 2019.
The Online Citizen and The Independent have been targeted by the PAP Administration and its proxy, NTUC, which has claimed to have “symbiotic relationship” with PAP. On the other hand, while we would support the Prime Minister to sue States Time Review (STR) and its editor for the criminal defamatory report which it has put up, we have reservations over the use of the Administrative power to geo-block the site altogether. This has created a precedent for PAP to geo-block any site which is critical of it. We also have great reservation over the Prime Minister’s decision to sue someone who has been misled by the report and had mistakenly shared it. The Prime Minister should take legal actions against STR and its editor instead.
We believe that the various acts are aimed to send chilling fear to Singapore dissidents and opposition supporters to curb their sharing of legitimate criticisms and anti-PAP commentaries. PAP’s intention to pass the “Fake News” law in 2019 is also an attempt to curb freedom of speech and expression. Any narrative that is contrary to PAP’s version could well be classified as “Fake News” and this law will give PAP the power to charge anyone who dare to put up such narratives!
On the other hand, we are also extremely concerned of the competency of the 4G leaders of PAP in dealing with important and sensitive diplomatic issues with our neighbouring countries. The recent unnecessary over-reaction to the sea boundary dispute as well as the dispute over airspace control has exposed the pure diplomatic incompetency and potentially dangerous political posturing of PAP’s 4G leaders. While Singaporeans understand the need to close rank and stand united when we face external threats but we will always want to stand on the higher moral grounds. There is absolutely no necessity to fan frenzy Nationalistic feelings when such fire may get out of control and translate into mindless agitations on the ground which in turn result in irreparable damage on bilateral relationship.
It is well known to the world that Singapore has the strongest arm forces in this region and there is absolutely no necessity to flex our muscle in demonstration of protest towards any surrounding country over any issues. Diplomacy has always been the pillar of our success as a small Nation in establishing a network of strength and support in both mutually beneficial economic and political development with other countries in the world. The 4G leaders of PAP must be reminded that our military might is established to prevent war and provide stability instead of starting any war or for bullying others into submission.
Looking forward into 2019, we hope that PAP will garner the wisdom and help from people with more experience in diplomacy to deal with bilateral disputes with Malaysia.
We do not expect PAP to change its strategic attempt to curb Freedom of Expression on the New media but we believe that only a good beating of PAP in the coming General Elections in 2019 or 2020 will send a strong message to PAP that it doesn’t pay to do more harm to the Nation’s Democratic development. PAP’s broken promise of “Light Touch” on internet chatters has turned into “Deadly Touch”.
We also foresee a dark economic cloud over the horizon for 2019 but under PAP’s rule, cost of living and business cost have increased tremendously over the past few years. They have just increased public transport fares despite of lower fuel price and the millions of indirect subsidies given to public transport companies! Singapore has remained as the most expensive city in the world for a few years now. This is the result when Singaporeans gave PAP too much of a mandate in GE 2015.
We believe that a combination of High Cost and Economic Downturn will hit Singaporeans very hard if PAP doesn’t change its High Cost policies soon.
Singapore is going to face a very challenging time ahead in 2019. We hope that Singaporeans will stand united and keep PAP in checks in order to get it on to the right path of Democratic and Economic development for Singapore.
Wishing Every Singaporean a Happy New Year 2019

But then how do you expect Singaporeans to vote opposition like you into power when the opposition is not even united and ready to be govt? Such a govt voted into power will be even worse than PAP, don't you think so? Singaporeans are basically choosing between the lesser of 2 evils, even though PAP is also no good, which I agree. In fact I also more or less agreed with the bad things you said about PAP.
Happy New Year! 🎇
Since people in cold climate spend more time inside their homes, therefor the Scandinavian are
famous for furniture designs. Similarly it make sense that people in warm climate eg Italy
is renowned for apparel design as they pay attention to how they appear outside.
Those protesting at the pet boarding home @ B. Panjang exceeds 5 people. Isn't that classified as unlawful assembly?

Here's something we observed with significant forces in play- the two extremes.

Freedom of speech- it benefits if civility prevails in exchanging ideas that is doing the greater good.
Freedom -of speech- it encourages public mocking and belittling of people. Causes chaos.

A leader of good judgement gives stability.
An exploiting leader leaves a trail of waste.

The mark of a good leader is loyal followers.
Leadership is nothing without a following.

Leadership has its benefits. One can bend the rules along the way.

Most rulers are just books and exams smart. They lack hands-on and practical experience. That's one of the reason the country is in a mess now.
It will even worserer in future if lee loong is not in picture.

Ask yourself which apply to you.
*Do you think you are the one who is qualified to be in charge?
*Do you believe that rules only apply to others?
*Do you think you can do everything by yourself?
*Do you think you are more important than all?
*Do you think you know it all?
