The importance of social media to Singapore politics

Writing on sociopolitical websites bring forth ideas and information about Singapore politics and conditions and it is good to share opinions, information and how ministers becoming billionaires while most Singaporeans are worried sick about the CPF, retirement and medical costs.

However, there are many who are still being hoodwinked especially those who rely on state media for their information which is highly skewed and censored. Hence the hope for a political change with PAP reduced to the role of a opposition and a ruling party with narrow majority so that it couldn’t amend the Constitution to its own advantage and to pass any policy without participation of the opposition as what Singapore has for the last many decades with PAP doing what they damn like and approving what they want including the huge salary, bonus, medical benefits and benefits in kinds.

GCT withdrew medical benefits from Singapore workforce on his warped rationale that with medical benefits, Singaporeans will not look after their health while unknown to the populace he maintained a extremely generous medical benefits for the ministers and god knows who else. Khaw in his nfi way revealed that his repair of his rotten heart cost him only $8 in his response to Singaporeans on high medical cost in Singapore.

Yes, it is necessary to bring this awareness to as many Singaporeans as possible before the next GE. This can be done by talking to fellow Singaporeans whenever possible at kopitiam, while waiting for bus or taxi, wherever when opportunities to talk with other arise.

The opposition parties are still dormant and have not maintained regular contact with Singaporeans. It should not matter which constituency they will be standing as the boundary get change every election. They should mingle around with Singaporeans as often as possible to make possible for Singaporeans to identify with them. Otherwise talk of VTO is just pure talk.
