The last Christmas present for the year
HDB households will get up to $190 in utility rebates starting in January 2011. A second tranche will be paid in July to offset the hike in electricity tariffs. 1 roomers could get as high as $190 while those in Executive flats will get $45.
Interviews conducted show that HDB dwellers are very thankful for this money falling down from the sky. Not many countries in the world will have govts giving money to their people to offset hikes in prices of goods or services. I believe this will go down well with the people and will be a good point to raise in the next general election.

Grateful? Of course..u should see me doing the new "Papaya" dance
I am so touched.
But no need to give me anything. Just don't jack up prices in 2011 by being the catalyst and giving the excuse to Ah Ter in the fish market to raise prices because he will always say, "bo bian, cheng hu ki, wa ma ki!"
WTF.
Ya...can quoting from 2007 Budget:
Ms Irene Ng : “incredibly generous”
Dr Amy Khor : “Good intentioned” and “Made in Heaven”
Mr Ong Ah Heng : "..the generosity ...is possible under the stewardship of the ruling People’s Action Party."
Mr Inderjit Singh : “This is one of the best, if not the best ..., I have seen.” and “Wonderful”
Ms Lee Bee Wah : “Pang sai ka che jamban” (Want to take a dump then look for toilet).
And all time favourite :
Dr Fatimah Lateef : “Let me share with her that nowhere else in the world can you get ... which includes love and compassion in abundance as this one.”
Yahooo...let's all do the PAPAYA DANCE
Indeed, our leaders love the people very much, just that they love our money more!
$1 for you, $100 for me, $1 for you, $100 for me.....
“Is it better to take your medicine sooner or stretch it out? Take medicine once or two times? I prefer to make (sic) my medicine early, why? This is something we need to do, once we have done it, we can move on..….” - Dr LEE
I can feel the 'papaya' dance in my Hougang constituency too. The papaya representative gave each household a calendar, with his compliments, to remind us that he is still there and election is coming. This is the first time in my 25 years stay in Hougang.
As for the utility rebates, well, chicken bones and feathers for you, chicken drumsticks and cutlets for them.
After the coming election, it will be payback time with GST increases, salary increases for ministers and MPs etc.
patriot wishes everyone Gooder and betterer years and betterest leadership ahead after 2010!

Good morning everyone in a crispy new year. Slept too early yesterday, at 2.30am! Just woke up a while ago. The wind is blowing mightily and slamming my windows shut.
Happy new year to all.
And yes, I don't ban anyone, especially agongkia! There many intrigues happening in cyberspace. My most vocal anti American fren is having a very tough time posting and even emailing his articles to his frens. He smells a rat.
