小便宜,大麻烦。

黑白程序虽然合理合法,

信任、道德危机却不可免。


几年前,房价平稳,以为捡到便宜,租到殖民地时代的豪宅黑白屋。今天,房价高涨,人民怨声载道,即使合情合理,也造成执政者的信任和道德危机。

土地局认为,两位部长租到政府豪宅是‘完全按照程序执行’。因此,很难说他们在法律层面,有什么出错;甚至,利用职位图利自己。

问题出在,当年的小便宜,在今时今日天价的房屋市场,小市民高喊负担不起廉价、津贴组屋的当下,变成一场情何以堪,信任和道德危机。当年,好心为政府分忧,租下空置多年的豪宅,今天却成一个烫手芋头。

什么人可以负担今天天价的豪宅,部长的年薪可能不够,国际大公司的执行人员,大老板,大贪官,大毒贩,或许才能做到。这种贫富不均的困境,很容易把小便宜变成大麻烦、大危机。

不明白,为何这两位部长,不像其他部长一样,没有投资有地房产自己住。几年前如果投资房产,今天可要笑逐颜开了,赚到天天开香槟。或许,他们有更加好的投资机会?

人民行动党是一个讲法律的政府。就像不提告吉宝行政人员那样,因为,证人不愿意出来作证。因此,不是政府不要提告他们,而是苦无证人。有一天,证人愿意出来面对法庭,检察官就会提告。

就像李光耀的代表律师被告发一样。有证人,有证据,李光耀的代表律师被罚了一万三千元。连李光耀的代表律师都出问题,更加不用说其他的资历不足,经历不够的一般人、一般律师。

从第一代到第四代行动党领导层,国人对于他们的信任,和以前一样,还是有所减少?对于他们的所作所为,是否合乎国人的期待?有没有说一套做一套?

行动党口口声声要人民信任他们,要团结新加坡向前迈进,携手共进,未来美好的新加坡。取信于民,难道就是出钱,寄望支持的媒体,在建国方面扮演一定角色?媒体在捡到小便宜后,会不会给第四代领导层带来更加大的麻烦?

Sub-standard PAP and the Singapore education system

I make a 'policy shift' when I hear the debate of right politics, constructive politics and sub-standard opposition. My original aim is to discuss about “Su Dongbo, Zhang Juzheng and Singapore education system”. The discussion will end with a sub-standard PAP, in particular from the assessment of the quality of PAP potential candidates. Another policy shift is to discuss it like a play, a drama and make it more entertainment rather than a sub-standard political discussion. Act 1 Gangster’s demand Imagine a sense in the Hong Kong's gangster movie (or a godfather movie), the gangsters' master is shouting at his poor opponent and demand him to give a price for his wrong act. The poor guy without any resources can only offer his body or his service to work for the master. Back in his own chamber, the master is still not satisfied and continues to shout 'don't play, play, you think you are hero, you think you are tiger, or superstar or acting ...

EBRC objectives: Stop “Out of Aljunied”, Stop SDP Breakthrough and “Negative-Asset” Ministers.

First of all, we have to congratulate the Electoral Boundaries Review Committee for creating more competitions, especially, multi-cornered competitions in the East. When making changes, EBRC aims to achieve 3 goals: To prevent “Out of Aljunied” for Workers’ Party.  This is the most important objective. To prevent Singapore Democratic Party making any breakthrough in the North and Central.   To look for a solution to retire “negative-asset” ministers or reduce PAP damages. From the reported claims from different political parties, we will expect multi-cornered contests not only in single constituencies but also in group representative constituencies. The PAP hopes to have a repeat of 2011 Presidential Election. Then Tony Tan won the Presidency when he got only 35% of the votes, a narrow win.However, a win is still a win. He did in even in the very last minute, after recounts of votes.    How to achieve multi-cornered contests? By i...

Is Prism Project Another Central Planning of the PAP?

There are 3 scenarios under the Prism Project#1 of Institute of Public Policy.  However, it looks more like the central scenario planning of the People’s Action Party. From the instructional menu of Prism Project Primer #2, participants were guided to a situation in 2022 and they have to imagine, within the Primer framework, to come out with 3 possible scenarios in Jun-Aug 2012.  2022. What a coincidence! Not long ago, PM Lee declared that he would like to hold the prime minister post for another 10 years. The other coincidence is the similarity between the 3 scenarios and the candidates of PE2011. How competitive and sustainable are the 3 scenarios to the people of Singapore and to the PAP?   Will the scenarios produce competitive and sustainable Singapore, Singaporeans or the PAP?  Perhaps, as what the Chinese say: planning cannot always catch up with changes.   And planning sometimes turns out the wrong, bad and unexpected results, espec...
