Our govt has delivered…the Olympic medal

The people’s cry or yearning for an Olympic medal must have reached the govt’s ears through the feedback channel. And the govt has worked very hard for the people, to bring a medal to satisfy the people and make the people feel proud as a nation. And the govt has succeeded, just like the Swiss standard of living. Once the govt has promised, it will deliver.

This National Day the people will have another reason to celebrate, to feel proud as Singaporeans. The table tennis team has done us proud. And they could bring another medal in the ladies team event to make two if they have not lost to the Japanese in the semi final.

At the National Day Parade many Sinkies would likely be asked if they want more medals and to kee chiu. The govt would definitely want a confirmation from the Sinkies and if the answer is a resounding yes, more elaborate plans and budget would definitely be in the works for the gold medal in the next Olympic in 2016.

Those who want gold medals must kee chiu. I think even without a show of hands, the govt already got the answer it wanted and would be working towards it. The feedback machinery must have told the govt that the people want more medals and better still a gold medal to do us really proud. What ever the people asked and wanted, the govt is listening and will deliver. And don’t forget the World Cup.

Be prudent and spend within your means

Khaw Boon Wan has again repeated the call to the people to spend within their means when buying a home, He even pointed out to the 50 year housing loan offered by the banks as a gimmick and discouraged people from taking it up. He also reiterated that he would continue to build more flats to cater for those who have been badly affected by the cock policies of his predecessor. Many have been caught without a flat caused by the curtailing of the building programmes and ended seeing their salaries exceeding the HDB ceilings and thus no longer qualify for public housing. This is the group that are being forced into the private market with income that appeared to be high but would be precariously stuck with a huge housing loans should they buy private. Was his predecessor concerned about being prudent and not spending beyond their means?

Now, would Boon Wan go all the way to undo the damages and harm that his predecessor had caused to the young home buyers and undo the wrongdoings by allowing those affected a chance to buy public housing? Forcing young people to buy their first home from the private sector is simply wicked and definitely contrary to what Boon Wan said about being prudent and spending within their means, not over extending themselves on a big mortgage to service for 30 long years.

Let’s see if Boon Wan would walk the talk and do the necessary to help the young people buy their first home after falling victims to his predecessor’s bad policies. Or would it be another case of ‘It happened, what to do?’

The making of another tragedy

The govt is going all out to convince the people that bigger and bigger population is good for the country and people, more lively, more alive, richer, vibrant and prosperity for all. And for the sake of this glorious future, Sinkies are encouraged to have babies for all the wrong reasons. The primary reason is economics, to support the ageing population.

When the reasons for having babies do not include whether the parents want the babies, love to have babies, can afford to have babies, it baffles the logic of any reasonable and caring man. How responsible it is to ask people, with no regards to their emotional and psychological needs and financial ability to go and make babies?

Babies that are born not out of parental love and needs but to serve the country and nation are simply the products of a tragedy, a misguided logic for their existence. And this tragedy or pain is hundreds of times more than the two years of NS and 20 years of reservist liabilities. The commitment and responsibilities, including having the money to give these children a decent life, start the day they are conceived and would not end till they are financially independent. What about those who are not gifted to struggle successfully in this highly competitive city? Who’s responsibility to provide for them?

It is not a joking matter that can be talked about carelessly. It is a very serious commitment on behalf of these babies that do not asked to be born. The govt are committing these babies by coaxing their parents, to shoulder the welfare of the older population and the country. Would anyone want to bear such a huge responsibility as the reason for his birth into this world? They are already indebted, heavily indebted to the oldies and the country. The oldies are waiting for them to be born to support them. They are not the loved child, to be born to enjoy living and to start life with a clean slate, but with debt already piling up for them. And the current generations are waiting for them to carry on their shoulders.

How tragic can things be? Who is going to pay for their growing up expenses and needs, and to prepare them to shoulder these heavy burdens not of their own doings?

Hillary the hilarious

While China is trading and investing in Africa to the tunes of hundreds of billions, and even offering cheap loans to the African nations, Hillary Clinton is lecturing the African nations to trade with more responsible European and American powers that respect human rights and democracy.

Is Hillary advocating for the return of European powers to colonise the Africans once again in their responsible ways? To loot these countries of their resources as if they belong to these European powers, as colonies, and the people as subjects of the European powers? Or is she telling the Africans that letting the responsible European powers back into Africa to hunt down the Africans as slaves for the cotton fields all over again?

I think the African slaves might be very thankful and grateful for the opportunity to be treated humanely as slaves in America and to enjoy the democracy there with all the rights of slaves. And they would get an education too, and later became Americans, and may even become the President of the USA.

The irresponsible China would never be able to do what the Europeans powers could do to help the Africans. They would not be able to take their resources for free to be processed and sold back to the Africans. They would have to pay cash to the Africans. And the Chinese would not be able to hunt and catch African niggers to be slaves in China, and to give them citizenship and protected under the laws of democracy and human rights 200 years down the road.

So sad that the Chinese are so irresponsible and could not repeat what the responsible European powers did in the past to the Africans as responsible powers. The African nations must be praying daily for the return of the white gods, the responsible powers that will give them freedom, democracy and education. It is so hilarious!

And the Americans are attacking China for setting up a military garrison in its own island while the Americans have set up thousands of military bases around the world for decades, in other countries. The question to be asked is why Australia, New Zealand and so many islands in the middle of the Pacific, Atlantic and Indian Oceans belonged to the Western Empires. And why North America and Canada belonged to European powers? Compare them to China’s claim of islands in the South China Sea, it is like comparing a mountain against a mole hill.

The UN may want to hold a discussion and make a resolution for the return of all the land and countries seized by the used of military force since the time of colonialism and imperialism and western expansion and conquest of other native’s land and countries.

Would Hillary like to do another hilarious act and bring this topic up to the UN. UN Resolution 2012, proposed by the Secretary of State of the USA, that all land and countries seized by military powers to be returned to their native owners!

Inner Consciousness

This is a very interesting piece of rar art. It is a face that opens up right in the middle to reveal an inner consciousness in the form of a smaller face with one eye opened and one eye closed. Those who are familiar with the concept of the Third Eye could relate this as the third eye seeing while the normal eye is shut. This is one of my favourite abstract pieces.
