A Monolingual Singapore. Better Growth. More Prosperity. Better Unity. More Harmony.

 A Monolingual Singapore.

Better Growth. More Prosperity.

Better Unity. More Harmony.


Singapore will become a monolingual state after the passing of Pioneer and Merdeka generations.    Is this possible? Is this good or bad?  Will it help us to achieve more economic growth as there are savings and productivity gains from using only one language?


Single language use will also foster more unity and more harmony in society.  One language makes direct communication and less misunderstanding through translations and interpretations. These advantages will then transform more prosperity, growth and money.


Is this a possible dream that even the USA can’t reach there? Wait a minute, where is the intangible essence in this dream?  Do we really need different cultural intangible assets to unite Singaporeans?   To achieve harmony?    


The Asian Century is coming.  It is a process that even the West has recognised. What it really means if Singapore becomes a monolingual state.  Will smart technology and AI drive Singapore into a monolingual society? Growth over essence? No wonder today’s PAP is different from the past PAP.

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.

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 inserting a single c
