2011 Coming Election 1
Monday, May 2, 2011

When I’m still a kid, I had no idea what election is all about and I find it not just boring but troublesome. As I grow up, my mindset changed. This year will be my first time voting in an election and I’m happy that I’m able to participate.

For the past 5years, I personally think that spending 283 million more for YOG (total cost about 387 million) is really too exaggerate. Of course, there's a lot more stuff which you guys can go read up at yahoo news, e.g., "There are now 1.3 million foreigners living and working in Singapore, making up one-third of its population of 5.1 million". Some of the foreign students told me that they don't like Singapore at all. They are treating it as stepping stone and they will be moving to somewhere else if thing get worse here. Yet out of 116,000 jobs created last year, more than half were taken up by foreigners. Well, cost of living so damn high, how to accept a “low pay” job? Unless really No choice…But now, letting in of so much foreigners has now come fighting "low pay" jobs from us too, tell me what is it that’s left for us? It's making our life even more difficult. Putting the job issues aside, I really feel that Singapore is getting kind of overcrowded !!

Moreover, I feel threaten as LKY said Aljunied voters will "pay a price, the hard way" if they voted for the Opposition. Everyone in Singapore is paying taxes please, if we have an Opposition as our MP, we get no upgrading? Is this fair? How to get a positive comments or response if you speak something like that to us? We are Singaporean and we have our rights. I know their contributions to Singapore in the past till now, from village to a modern city, it's really great, appreciated.

But the past 5 years, we really should see what they had did and start to think, who is the right MP we should vote. Vote for the group whom you think are better and more capable in our respective GRC area, not just because you simply prefer “Oppose” blindly and not vote because you're a hard core for people wearing in white too. We can't just vote because of voting but vote wisely! Let’s do our part and stop complaining you have to vote on 7th May. Ultimately, we are voting for the country, our country.
