SINGAPORE: When Leaders Are Without Sight

 

We have a bunch of leaders without foresight, oversight and hindsight,

Who are clearly blinded by the glitters of gold until they've no sight.

The only sight they may think they have is actually in their backside.

Their forefathers built Singapore from third world to first, tediously.

They make Singapore from first world to third, very quickly.

Instead of protecting their citizens' livelihood, they speak for the foreigners' side.

Instead of honouring their own countrymen, they labelled them as Xia Shuay with delight.

So, having leaders without sight has really become a national plight.

Now, we often ask: they are on whose side?

Ya! We do not have the luxury of the benefit of hindsight! We are on the foreigners' side! So what! If you can, you vote us out of office! Don't you dare criticize our pet foreigners, else we'll charge you as racists. You are screwed, many times! So what!

So what?

So you must choose leaders with foresight, hindsight and oversight.

Do not choose arrogant and jia-liow-bee leaders to lord over you.

Do not choose leaders who only care for their $million salary and annual bonuses.

Even at such a difficult time, during a Pandemic, where millions of people suffer economic and financial hardship, they still pay themselves bonuses, instead of cutting their pay like many other countries. The is the type of leaders you have now.

So what?

So, in the next GE, you should know what to do to protect yourself so that you won't be screwed again and again and again and again and again.......

You need a shift of at least 12% votes in every constituency in order to replace the PAP leadership.

When leaders become arrogant, conceited and complacent, and only paying lip service to the problems of the daily life of the masses, it is time for them to go.

They lost NOL. SPH also gone, SIA also on the way. DBS don't know how long before it is taken over by India. Now Sembawang Marine is also going to turn turtle.

When it is time to collapse, everything will go down, all the decisions will be stupid decisions and will make things worse. They think they have succeeded in the fight against Covi19.

Wait for the island to go kaput.

Covid19 is making them to empty the reserves. And every monkey is still collecting millions. Where to find the money to pay the unproductive millionaires?

[Goodbye SGX, Goodbye Singapore]

I have traded or invested almost 100% in Singapore markets for 12 years since I was a a young teenager. Made some, lost some. Only in 2021 I started on US Markets and Crypto and my conclusions are as follow:

1. SGX and MAS are jokers and sleeping on their job.

2. In SG, bar Banks and REITS (which I feel are for jokers or boomers), the rest is shit.

3. Singapore is on a slow but sure dive to the bottom (SG will cease to exist).

Solution: Plan for a Life without Singapore.

From jokes of $Sembcorp Marine(S51.SI) to $SPH(T39.SI) to $Hyflux(600.SI) to $SIA(C6L.SI) , how many of these GLCs or Ah Kong backed too big too fail monopolies LOST Money for Boomer Shareholders? I can name many more btw.

Then there's the Blatant Acceptance of Illegal Acts and Flouting of Rules by $Aspen(1F3.SI) (SGX approved their Mainboard Listing recently) to $Medtecs Intl(546.SI) (for those still holding, for ur sake, please cut) to $Eagle HTrust USD(LIW.SI) to $No Signboard(1G6.SI) to $SunMoonFood(AAJ.SI) how many of these people did illegal things or flout rules but SGX just let them or has done nothing. Yet yearly, SGX gets awards. SGX as a regulator and platform is a joke. MAS is no better....

The same for US Market, $PLTR imagine the CEO is Alex Karp or $TSLA Mr Musk or $SOFI Mr Noto or $COIN Mr Armstrong. Even our special import star $DBS(D05.SI) Gupta is NOT even fit to carry the shoes of the 4 mentioned US Ceos. Much less SIA's loser Singaporean CEO or SPH Mr Umbrage Army Joker. Then there's Sembmarine.

Over-confidence Is The Main Cause Of Singapore Leaders' Downfall

In other countries when leaders become corrupt and when their corrupted deeds have been exposed, it is time for them to go.

In Singapore, because amassing wealth by the leaders has been legalised through the Parliament, it is very rare to hear of our leaders being corrupt. Therefore, in Singapore, when leaders become arrogant and cocky, it is time for them to go.

Why?

Because arrogance and cockiness are the products of over-confidence. Over-confidence leads to misjudgement.

Misjudgement leads to errors, mistakes and blunders.

Errors, mistakes and blunders not accepted and/or admitted lead to cover-ups.

With such a huge government apparatus and complex machinery at their disposal, cover-up is chicken feeds. Nobody will be the wiser.

However, when too many cover-ups have been engineered and produced, just like false flags, they will inevitably be discovered, un-earthed or experienced subsequently.

Once cover-ups are exposed, it is hard for the people to trust the government again.

Once the government lost the people's trust, the leaders have to go.

Why?

Because it is the leaders who have made the various decisions to cover-up so as to deceive their people - the country folks, village pumpkins, urban gentlemen, fashionable ladies, modern housewives, and the techno-savvy youngsters - everybody, and the world at large.

So, instead of being arrogant and cocky, make amends: strive to be humble, patient and compassionate. And, most importantly and significantly, stop talking down at your people by saying idiotic unthinking things such as "I take umbrage", "Xia Shuay" and "free-riders". These are offensive and degrading expressions, the by-products of arrogance and cockiness. They hurt really bad. They hurt deep into the bones and they will never be forgotten nor forgiven. They will definitely go down in the respective legacies of the leaders concerned, vividly without doubt.

However, despite of doing all the above, you still cannot get rid of your arrogance and cockiness, unless you get rid off your over-confidence first.

The problem is that your over-confidence is very difficult to get rid off because it has been built up over a very long period of time - due to a series of continuous successful endevours. Some are your own. Some are collective teamworks. Most are bandwagon hitch-hike achievements planted to fruition by the old guards and you simply rest on the laurels of their efforts with impunity and euphoria, oblivion of how much labour and pains the pioneer generation had collectively put up and put in, despite receiving very little monetary rewards.

Yet you have made yourselves multi-millionaires overnight without conscience, without shame and without regards to the majority of the country folks who are struggling to survive in one of the richest and most expensive countries in the world; always boasting of how many millionaires and billionaires being created every year!

That's why over-confidence is so hard to undo. Therefore, you have to try even harder and hardest.

For a start, my advice to those arrogant and cocky leaders is to voluntarily cut off at least 50% of your pay and bonuses, and freeze your pay increase over the next ten years. That will definitely bring down your over-bloated ego and undeserved pride. And you will be hugely humbled. And your over-confidence will automatically disappear like magic. It always works. For your own good, do it!

Do it immediately, instead of still wanting to receive that megre amount of bonus to satisfy your urge to pat yourself on the shoulder.

Good solution? What do you think?

Extract from the State's Mouth-Piece:

"Singapore's 86,000 civil servants will receive a 0.3-month mid-year bonus, while those in more junior grades will receive an additional one-off payment of $350 or $700, the Public Service Division (PSD) announced on Friday (June 18).

This comes amid an improvement in the economic outlook this year, though downside risks - such as an uneven pace of recovery across various sectors of the economy - remain, the PSD said in a statement.

It cited how the economy expanded by 1.3 per cent on a year-on-year basis in the first quarter of this year, a reversal from the 2.4 per cent contraction in the previous quarter."

Notes:

1. Civil Servants has always been used as a cover for ministers to increase their pay and receive their bonuses.

2. Ministers' pay and bonuses are included into the Civil Service pay scheme.
