Singaporeans should say, 'No, Thank you very much.'

Published September 20, 2007 YESTERDAY IN PARLIAMENT We need CPF changes to stay viable: Eng Hen Govt not leaving citizens to fend for themselves, he says... Dr Ng emphasised that the government is not leaving Singaporeans to fend for themselves. 'We will spend at least $1.1 billion each year to build up their CPF savings through Workfare and higher CPF. We will provide up to $1.2 billion in deferment bonuses. These changes are real. They will see their CPF accounts grow faster after these changes.' Singaporean should say no to the billions that the govt is going to put into their CPF. The govt should use the billions for the annuity schemes and not to change the withdrawal age of the CPF. Thank you. Please don't meddle with the CPF scheme. We are very happy with the way it is.

    Even if they did (which they won't), it wouldn't make a difference. The government sets the agenda in this town—just like a small-town sheriff in an old Western.

    The opinion of the people (SoS—Sheeple of Singapore) is as effective as an erect cock on The Pope —— you may have something "useful", but you can't use it!

    i have nothing against papal. i only disagree when the govt thinks that it can plan the people's lives with the people's money, depriving them from getting to use their money.

    i really feel very sorry for the pathetic ah pehs and ah mahs whose only savings are the $10k or $20k in their cpf. many will not live to touch them or to pamper themselves with a few nice things in life.

    everyday of postponing the withdrawal age will mean a few more will not live to enjoy their hard earned money. and when this is extended to a few years, my goodness, how many will be cursing and regretting.

    this is kindness singapore style. or cruelty, depending on whether you happen to be a victim of this kindness.

    So why give a shit?

    These dumbos kept voting the PAP in for years because they "believed" that the govt will "look after them".

    The People Get The Govt They Deserve.

    There is a widespread belief in the human species that "someone" will save humanity.

    Damn good joke, I must say. especially when so many bloody fools believe it.
