Wasting time lah. After the weekend: no change, life as per normal.

Stay home watch porno and masturbate -- much more "productive"!

After weekend --- same result as attending the futile "protest", except people who attended the protest bang balls, but you -- at least you managed to shoot cum all over the place and put a smile of contentment on your face. ;-)

Got pah chiu cheng?

Rb, base on Chinese astrology, Sat morning should be quite warm but subjected to 7th month weather, the "folks" need start go back as next day is the last day of their 2014 "holidays" .

Afternoon maybe cloudy and may bring some light rain before and after lunch. Weather could be quite cooling in the late afternoon between 5 to 7 pm. Still subjected to 7th weather as they may have to make it conducive for the "folks" to make it back avoid the "massive jam " the next day which is the last day of 7th month for 2014.

Overall, weather should be breezy and more cooling than the 9th Aug afternoon. So likely a conducive afternoon to attend the gathering unless the 7th month weather takes precedence. A good lazy afternoon to sip coffee and chit chat before the gathering at 4pm at level 2 Hawker Centre opposite HLP across Upp Pickering Street ( Between Chinatown Pt and Fook Hai Bldg) .

For oldies who prefer a light lunch, the porridge at level 1 is quite reasonably priced and one of the better ones in SINKIELAND.

The Bak Kut Teh store next door also not too bad.

Could we see a record turnout?

There could be 2 extremes.

Less than 2,000 or more than 6,000.

With recent development, it could be the later.

This may be the last chance for the older sinkies to make themselves heard before the "cosmetic proposed tweak " announced is cast in stone.

Even if it rains knives, so be it.

Otherwise CPF really stands for "Collect Post Funeral " for many, many oldies, retirees and older sinkies?

Everyone will be affected.

With changing goal posts, the worst may be YET TO COME?

Pek Kim or gambling chips for experts?

Have your say and make your stand

Even a cornered forest rabbit would put up a fight for its life with the hunters.

How can human be worst than a small forest rabbit?

For those without a job after 55, in poor health, how to survive till 65 under current and recent proposed tweak?

Would the recent announced tweak makes any difference if retirees are too ill health or out of work between 55 to 65?

Heard about a Chinese saying?

"远水救不了近活"

Water 10 miles or 10 years away CANNOT SAVE the fire burning RIGHT IN FRONT RIGHT AT THIS MOMENT.

By then, many will end up " kena burned until chow tar liao "

No?

When water ($$$ Cpf - collect post funeral ) finally arrives, the house already burned down lo!

Too late!

Too little anyway!

Would not have put out the fire.

Imagine putting out a big burning fire with water gun?

OMG!

Ya, don't waste time with the pak chiu cheng king. That's what he does best.

The hawker stall you mentioned is where I headed with my kakis for kopi or 'Yu kai mei fun' ie fish chicken rice noodle. Actually it is fish noodle but the fish slices are thick like chicken pieces.

Hope to see some of you on Sat and Speed. And our resident geomancy forecasted weather is cool, maybe some rain. Not bad. And it is good to do something than do nothing and be led to the slaughter house.

Cheers.

That's right RB.

All "under one roof".

Good kopi, good and reasonably priced food, good pals, good camaraderie, good discussion to safeguard sinkieland's future ( hopefully but no high hope, either it will sink or it can be rescued but in the circumstances it sinks, the new sinkieland to be rebuilt is not likely to have present leegime involved. So, technically, the leedeship should thank the oldies and all for rendering a helping hand in the event it is rescued.)

Rb // And it is good to do something than do nothing and be led to the slaughter house.//

Tiok.

Somehow, things on the ground SUCKS BIG TIME.

山高皇帝远! High mountains, faraway emperor!

But Sinkieland so small ( 715 sq km ) and the highest point is the miserable Bt Timah Hill which a fit athlete would need less than 10 mins to reach from foot to hill top.......

The IVORY TOWERS must be 800 STOREYS high otherwise why things and situations are deteriorating unabated on the ground?

To "wake up the asleep keeper", the Chinese call it:

"敲山震虎"!

Its pointless. There is only one way to withdraw the cpf - emigrating. This two youngsters should start their emigrating process instead of going against the people voted gov before it is too late. Majority of the people elected this gov and the rest is history. The people get what they asked for. This is democracy.

Maybe many more thousands will be ar HLP this Saturday 23 Aug 2014.
BUT PAP WILL NOT BE BOTHERED FOR IT KNOWS THAT AFTER THE GATHERING, THOSE FOLKS AT THE GATHERING WILL BE BACK TO WORK AS USUAL.

PAP KNOWS THAT AFTER THE HONG LIM PARK GATHERING, THE PARTICIPANTS WILL FORGET ALL THAT WAS SAID AT THE EVENTS. THE FOLKS WILL NOT HAVE FOLLOW-UP ACTION. THEY WILL ALSO HAVE TO LANLAN COMPLY AND CONFORM TO ALL POLICIES.

Han Hui Hui HLP rallies are wrong time, wrong place lah.

She must learn from Teochew Lau Ah Hia, who only hold rallies at election time and hence got crowds many times bigger than HLP rallies. Only then will PAP be scared.

Or else she and Roy are just fighting losing battles every time lah. Only the daft 40% Sinkies will attend their HLP rallies.

Hahahahahaha.

RB 1:21 pm

Sutchi fish fillets?

If yes, and yet u are impressed, that shows u did not do fish shopping at NTUC and other supermarkets.

If it is cod fillet, then different story and of course just a matter of $$ for thick slices.

Rb. // And our resident geomancy forecasted weather is cool, maybe some rain. Not bad. //

According to Chinese geomancy, the position of the stage plays a contributing factor.

If sited at the wrong spot, it can make the turnout and success less phenomenal.

But many geomancy practitioners may charge an arm and leg in view of such a big site for their services. A typical 5 rm flat layout consultations costs 4 figure upwards for a good and reliable geomancy master service.

The organizer may want to read up some fundamentals on geomancy to avoid certain "less lucky " spot to mount the stage.

Furthermore, some local geomancy practitioners may not want to take up such job to avoid unnecessary limelight.

ANSWER:
This is the older generation way.
The younger generation votes OPPOSITION to withdraw cpf money.

Now ... that is democracy.
And the younger people know this.
And that is why I think LKY once said he does not understand young people.

The Last Gathering on 9 Aug, Matilah was enjoying orgies at Oz when Rb invited him 4 kopi at HLP.

Will Matilah make an effort to meet up wth Rb and Company on tis 23rd?

Ha ha ha

Mb rb shud extend his invitation to his poster MOM-MY boy to HLP.

CPF directly under his purview.

Time for him to meet the ground and collect feedback.

Isn't this the true One People, One Nation, One SINKIELAND spirit?

MOM-MY boy, if rb invites u lim kopi, wud u give face?

Anonymous said...

If tomorrow Rb's poster MOM-MY boy announced CPF partial lump sum withdrawal age move forward to age 55 with immediate effect and lump sum withdrawal amount set at between 40% - 60%, then many oldies might not turn up on Sat.

But based on past precedence, it is almost zero chance.

Thus, many are likely to proceed to register their strong "unhappiness" with their CPF life savings being withheld without their consent or against their will.

@1038:

>> CPF life savings being withheld without their consent or against their will.

CPF is administered under stat law "The CPF Act". The law requires consent from no one.

Do you really believe that a few rag-tag "protests" are going to change the law?

Hope you enjoy smoking your weed, because I think you guys are really HIGH :-)
