Many people don't know that the PAP and its crony the HDB's secrets. Those who lived in HDB flats do NOT own that flat. They have only paid the rent for 99 years or the balance of that. HDB is the landlord. Yet you have to pay for any upgrades. After 99 years, its worth zero for the "owner".<br /><br />To come out on top, move out of Singapore or have nothing to do with the HDB. Collect all your CPF. Singapore is truly run like a company. Do not think for a second that the PAP is concerned for your wellbeing. <br /><br />You remember the movie "The Matrix"? Well to the PAP, you are the battery! You are only there to generate wealth for them! And they don't care about you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081742307252789733.post-33555165401336172462010-07-15T13:24:55.152-07:002010-07-15T13:24:55.152-07:00A foreign talent that will be welcomed.

"...To the Anonymous (Wed Jul 14, 09:55:00 AM)<br /><br />"other countries do not grant citizenship easily"<br /><br />From the Singaporean viewpoint, you will need to do some research work and understand that countries like Australia, the UK, NZ work differently from Singapore. Dealing with Singapore, you can never work out what the outcome is going to be. In Australia, the UK, NZ, these countries spell out what kind of migrants they need. As long as you meet their requirements and stay within their quotas, you will get your visa and after a period of time, become a citizen.<br /><br />AS for USA, you are already spoken to Mr Nair who is an Immigration lawyer. http://www.us-immigrationlaw.com/<br /><br />If you want to escape from your "jail", better act fast.

There are already many hundreds of thousands of Singaporeans all over the world today, and very soon, there will be more Singaporeans outside Singapore than within. They are being replaced by recent human imports from the Peoples Republic of Communist China, resulting in Singapore having an entirely repalced population or a foreign population within the island.Gopalan Nairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15399145588654603667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081742307252789733.post-24318095929421592132010-07-14T14:42:41.537-07:002010-07-14T14:42:41.537-07:00To Anonymous Jul 14, 0955,

Of course countries such as Australia and Canada require qualifications and skills before they let you in. If you do not have the skills, you can always gain it to move out. If you want to get out, you will be able to. I am sure of that. If you need some specific help, call me. <br />Good LuckGopalan Nairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15399145588654603667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081742307252789733.post-39761661029558690622010-07-14T09:55:27.255-07:002010-07-14T09:55:27.255-07:00Dear Sir,

Consider this comment ...<br />"Obviously this Swiss citizen did not follow the laws of Singapore. It's your decision, but the perception in our country is not a positive one because for a long time, we have moved from such penalties to other than physical punishment," said Swiss President Leuthard.<br /><br />Next, Internal Security Act.

A monument to one man's inferiority complex and overweening hubris. You are correct in pointing out that the place is inexorably emptying of smarts and they're being rapidly replaced by dross. The very best and creative minds clear off just as soon as they can afford to, taking their families with them. Apart from a few brave souls, few intelligent people with any self-respect would willingly choose to spend all their lives in a cage, even a gilded one.The earlier less-brainwashed generations are ageing and dying out. What's left in the general populace is, to be honest, what might fairly be described as the losers. But no matter, the native Singaporean species is expendable anyway, soon to be replaced by native Mandarin speakers.<br /><br />150 years of a slowly evolved, uniquely local patois which contained elements from all the local languages and united the different races was consigned to the dustbin of history by control-freakery and an overpowering urge to play God. Frankly, setting out to create an over-armed, prickly Chinese-speaking fortress smack dab in the middle of a Malay ocean doesn't exactly strike me as the best way to win first prize for friendly neighbourhood relations. I suspect it is more to do with ratcheting up the xenophobia level in order to keep political power than it is to do with national security. One day, a price might have to be paid for the sabre-rattling but of course not by the original perpetrators. Certain Westernised Oriental Gentlemen would long since have fled the scene of their crime to enjoy their ill-gotten gains in comfort and safety elsewhere - in an English-speaking bolt-hole, I'm willing to bet.mycroftnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081742307252789733.post-23946712594132466762010-07-12T04:00:24.810-07:002010-07-12T04:00:24.810-07:00It's the trap of any tyrant.

He knows his reign should end but he's powerless to quit. <br /><br />Intoxicated with power, wealth and self grandeur he will persist fully aware that all he could do is buying time for the inevitable regress of the society and country he's controlling. In the end he would stop caring for his own citizens simply because he would be unable to do so and put the wealthy investors and executive foreigners at the forefront of every business in Singapore, basically selling his pots to the foreigners and hoping they would continually support his regime.<br /><br />RenaldiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
