In a democratic political system, the people are given the right and power to elect their representatives to Parliament to look after their interest, protect their interest, speak out for their interest. And the elected govt is supposed to do the same, to look after the interest of the people that elected them to be the govt.
What if the elected representatives are more interested in speaking up for those that did not elect them as their representatives instead of the people that elected them? What if the govt is always thinking and planning for the interest of foreigners other than the citizens, the people that elected them?
It is disgusting to see how vocal and zealous of MPs wasting their time and effort speaking out for foreign workers, we understand their plight, as if these are their main responsibilities, not the interest of their constituents, the people that elected them to Parliament. Likewise, some are speaking out for animals, accepted that animals also need to be taken care of, but what about the people that elected them for the very purpose of looking after their interest?
Similarly, what shall you say of a govt that have been peddling to the interest and well beings of foreigners and not the citizens? Jobs for foreigners, good jobs for foreigners, shitty jobs for the people that elected them? Free vaccines and freebies for foreigners?
Why elect representatives that think your interest is less important than those of foreigners and dogs and cats? Why elect a govt that panders to the needs of foreigners and make you grab drivers and food delivery boys and girls?
Might as well don't vote for them. This is misplaced trust and misplaced priorities when there are so many issues and problems facing the people but they chose to talk and speak out for people that did not vote them to represent them. Animals are more important to them.
How outrageous!
What do you think?

Official stats, 5324 cases on Wednesday. Unofficial or stay home cases not included.
What would be the next high?
Next high will be 10,000 infections per day.
The three Witches of the Most Terrifying Fiends (MTF) have spoken. That is to prepare the people psychologically to swallow that figure that they have deliberately planned for it to happen:
Cleansing of the population, getting rid of the old folks who have become a burden to the PAP's image, a pest in the stomach of PAP leeders.
The three Witches are evil in disguise. Their appearance and existence bring misfortunes to everyone except themselves.
They are not Multi-Ministry Task Force. They have been transformed into the Most Terrifying Fiends, their actual selves.
don't worry..1 of the 3 stooges already said they are prepare for 10k/day..so we are only 50% nia..still got room for more..
an old man (80yrs old) under public assistant who live near my place keep kpkb about the situation here but when asked him why vote for miw, he said no better option..try explaining to him about the bad things that miw created..but give up.
he will sure to vote for miw again nxt election.. this is the dad state of singaporean life..given a chance to change gov every 5 yrs..but just wasted it.
To the PAP's self-indulgent and self-centered and self-praise and self-enriching using taxpayers money Millionaires Ministirs, the People's interests are not PAP'S SELFISH INTERESTS.
To the PAP leeches and parasites, the PAP'S INTERESTS ARE THE ONLY NATIONAL INTERESTS.
Kena stuck. If don't vote for PAP, it will benefit the do-nothing Pritam Singh! If vote for PAP, the frustrations continue.
This is called chronic disease of the weirdest kind. Most countries citizens are suffering the same chronic disease. Even in USA, their citizens vote either Democrats or Republicans. But both are left and right arm of the same Ruling Body. The same Body that enriches itself using taxpayers money and lobbying money, and their elected leaders get richer and richer over time, while the citizens get poorer and poorer.
I know I'm largely preaching to the choir here but when someone around you talks how "vaccinated people get sick and die too!" - show them this chart.
Maybe that'll help? Though I'm not optimistic.
Singapore in particular has become a victim of its own success - but it's not COVID that's killing people in the city-state right now - as I explained in my latest for the month in the Vulcan Post: https://vulcanpost.com/767461/singapore-worst-killer-is-not-covid-19/
"What’s really sad is that out of 169 deaths reported in the first 3 weeks of October, 30 were of those who received one dose of the vaccine. This suggests that they got scared some time before they ended up contracting the disease and went to receive their shot, but did not survive long enough to complete the two-dose cycle and develop necessary immunity."
[...]
"Instead of 200 to 300 fatalities recorded in the past three months, there could only have been as few as 20 or 30. The remaining victims were not killed by the virus, but by lies and misinformation of fools and crooks."
The five thousand mark was reached faster than anticipated. Rest assured the ten thousand mark will be quick and easy.
Now they say they are studying how the surge is so sudden. What kind of study are they talking about when tracing to sources is no more with home isolation, except for sporadic watch on some areas like childcare and old folk's home.
But as always, there is one area they can always push the blame on to, and that is the unvaccinated and children. This will surely lead to vaccination for children below 12, becoming the next priority, if not already so.
Ever wonder why they did not make vaccination compulsory, just with a stroke of the pen as with other issues? Oh, please do not talk about the Government caring about human rights which is illusionary.
"Official stats, 5324 cases on Wednesday. Unofficial or stay home cases not included.
What would be the next high?"
My take is that the actual case could be 15,000 per day if included home case. MOH know the actual figure should be around that since anyone who get the virus need to call MOH and then stay at home for recovery (and the virus infect other family members as well), and the fact that they conceal this information from daily case already tell you something that number could be way, way much larger.
Now no more free hotel stay or resort unless you have someone 80 or above at your home, so everything under your own expense, pushing all the responsibilities back to you. The chance of getting the virus is 50% going by that rate.
Good luck, Sinkies and you are a great government indeed. Absolutely shameless and disgusting government, and still can go happy-go-round.
"Ever wonder why they did not make vaccination compulsory, just with a stroke of the pen as with other issues? Oh, please do not talk about the Government caring about human rights which is illusionary."
If they make vaccination compulsory, then the government need to be fully responsible for any liability and death relate to the vaccine, and been a government that running a business that means a loss of money. By making it volunteer (and yet come out measurement that make it no difference from compulsory), the government does not have to take full responsibility from the negative cases arise from vaccine (they know that people almost 99% need to take it voluntarily given those extreme measurement and inconvenience) . The government is not stupid and just want to push the responsibilities back to you.
Hahaha
Like brothers, Malaysians, particularly non Muslims, are also being screwed by UMNO for close to 60 years. Now that UMNO is in by the back door, I believe the euphoria of a new beginning in 2018 has totally faded and is back to square one.
Same same no shame!
Malaysian non-Muslims have no choice. Sinkies have a choice. Yet Sinkies have been throwing away that choice every 5 years. That's the difference. Not same same.
Don't talk about shame. Led by shameless leeders, Sinkies don't even know what is shameful anymore.
Our Mediacorpse is so concern about China's COVID19 infections, paled in comparison to Singapore, that it occupies the first item on the news bulletin. Our 5,324 infections comes some ten minutes into the bulletin, after reporting on China, New Zealand and Australia's position. Trying to divert attention away from our own trouble?
Even if they put all the Unvax in Tekong, they will still say its the UV fault. The strong winds came from the South China Sea, went over Tekong, caught the virus from UV and then penetrated our defenses at Changi.
Risks of non-fully vaccinated Covid-19 patients becoming seriously ill or dying ‘at least 8 times higher’: MOH
The risks of people becoming seriously ill or dying from Covid-19 is at least eight times higher for non-fully vaccinated people than fully vaccinated people, the Ministry of Health (MOH) said on Thursday (Oct 28), as it explained a new chart that it has introduced in its daily update of Covid-19 cases.
“We understand that there have been some questions about the effectiveness of the Covid-19 vaccines in reducing the risk of serious illness. To address this, we introduced a new chart in our Covid-19 press release earlier this week,” the ministry said in a Facebook post.
The new chart, which has been included in the daily updates since Monday, shows the seven-day moving average of the number of deaths, as well as those who are critically ill and intubated in intensive care units. The chart includes the breakdown of cases who are fully and non-fully vaccinated.
“By calculating the seven-day moving average of critically ill cases and deaths per 100,000 population, we can see that the risks of non-fully vaccinated cases becoming seriously ill or dying is at least eight times higher than that of fully vaccinated cases,” MOH said.
The ministry added that the risk is higher for those aged 60 and above.
Associate Professor Kenneth Mak, director of medical services at MOH, said during a press conference by the national Covid-19 task force last Saturday that an unvaccinated patient has a 10.4 times higher risk of being placed in an intensive care unit or dying compared to a vaccinated patient.
The relative risk of dying from Covid-19 is also 11.7 times higher for an unvaccinated patient.
“The evidence is clear: Vaccination protects you. Please get your Covid-19 vaccination and booster dose, and encourage others to do so too,” the ministry said in its post.
Muslims in Malaysia are now also suffering, more than non Muslims. The problem is more severe for them, as they are too reliant on special treatment by the Government, that they now find it difficulties in coping when thrown under the bus. Government resources today to help them is already exhausted. Remove the crutches and they do not know what to do.
Chinese and Indians have all the time been left to their own resources and they have inculcate the ability to survive without little Government help. It is said that these two groups of people can survive anywhere they go. Not those that live for decades on crutches.
This guy's words cannot be trusted anymore. He was one of those who advised us not to wear mask if not sick. Wear masks only when sick.
Mediacorpse news cannot be trusted. They are very bias. Tilted towards a absurdity for those its editors want to slam and towards covering up for those that it supports.
That is pure propaganda to demonise the unvaccinated. Nothing else. The daily relentless onslaught against the unvaccinated is very telling.
The idiots can simply declare Vaccination Compulsory, yet they refused to do it. Why?
Vaccines must have long-term effects issues, isn't it? They don't want to shoulder the responsibility and are now pushing the responsibility to the unvaccinated and blackmailing and blaming the unvaccinated, in order to cover up their sins of deliberately "murdering" so many oldies of Singapore.
You don't understand. They do fight for citizens, the new citizen. They fight for new citizens to bring in more new citizens. That's how the regime is surviving.
One case of Delta COVID subvariant AY.4.2 detected in Singapore: MOH
Singapore has recorded at least one case of a Delta coronavirus subvariant, believed to be more contagious than the dominant strain currently circulating here.
In response to media queries by Yahoo News Singapore, the Ministry of Health (MOH) confirmed that one imported case was infected with the subvariant, also known as AY.4.2, but added that there is no evidence of spread to the community.
"AY.4.2 is not a new variant, but a subvariant of the Delta variant. While its effects are still being studied, AY.4.2 is currently expected to be similar to other Delta subvariants in terms of transmissibility and severity of illness," said the MOH.
The ministry did not elaborate on when the case's current status or when it was detected.
According to data aggregator site outbreak.info, one case with the AY.4.2 subvariant, yet to be considered a "variant of concern", was first detected in the city-state on 8 September.
The site extrapolates information from the Global Initiative on Sharing All Influenza Data (GISAID), the world's largest database of novel coronavirus genome sequences.
Deputy director of Taiwan Centers for Disease Control Luo Yi-jun had also made reference to the subvariant being present in Singapore during a press conference, according to a Central News Agency article published on 22 October.
Now what? A second booster shot is possible. Endless possibilities now!
Since vaccination is the panacea for all, it makes sense to make it compulsory. But that will upset the applecart with no more avenues to blame for further spike in infections.
In the transition to endemic COVID-19, 2 extreme positions have been taken - to lockdown or to open up.
Both extreme possibilities have major risks and downsides. They carry both intended and unintended consequences, including loss of lives.
The way to move forward has to be calibrated in response to many factors, including the following:
- People. For example, dealing with vaccinated and the unvaccinated people,
- Place/Activity. For example, managing more vulnerable or less vulnerable place/activity, and
- Situation. For example, responding to different situations depending on the RO value of Covid-19.
Case in point, the potential and possibilities of the rise or decline of transmission depends on three major scenarios.
Scenario 1: RO is less than 1.
In scenario 1, each infection causes less than one new infection. In this case, the disease will decline and eventually die out.
Scenario 2: RO is equal to 1.
In scenario 2, each infection causes one new infection. The infection rate will stay flat and there won’t be any major outbreak and increase in infections.
Scenario 3: RO is more than 1.
In scenario 3, each infection will cause more than one new infection. Covid-19 will be transmitted between people and if nothing is done, there may be a major outbreak, resulting in more people suffering from severe symptoms or losing their lives. The healthcare system may become overstretched too.
Judging from the above-mentioned factors, it’s impossible to have a definite plan. The most effective plan, therefore, has to be flexible and adaptable to the changing RO, and targeted to achieve optimal results.
The Covid-19 pandemic is constantly changing and posing unprecedented challenges. With every attempt to control it, new problems would rise.
In an article published on Harvard Business Review, Professor John C. Camillus posited that in such a situation, there’s no ‘exhaustive describable set of potential solutions, nor is there a well-described set of permissible operations that may be incorporated into the plan’.
Such a challenge can be defined by Horst W. J. Rittel and Melvin M. Webber, two Berkeley professors as “wicked” problems that require ever-evolving solutions in response to both expected and unexpected consequences over time and these solutions have to be constantly adapted and adjusted to achieve desired objectives.
To illustrate, a spaceship with all its technological wizardry doesn’t fly in a straight line. It is either moving to the left or to the right of a straight line between the launching pad and its final decision. Along the way, it adjusts accordingly to reach its final destination.
On social media, there are many pseudo experts in infectious diseases. They condemn the authorities for every surge and deaths but have no viable alternative solution to offer. Except to call for Ivermectin to be used instead of vaccines.
Those who shout, “Open up the economy!” have no idea how to handle more cases and fatalities by an overstretched healthcare system.
Those who shout “Lock down!” have no idea how to deal with job losses and business closures to the detrimental effects on livelihoods.
There’s hardly any better place to live in during this pandemic than in Singapore.
I hope they will learn to give credit where credit is due, and be grateful and thankful for how our authorities are managing our small but sparkling red dot.
