Parents do not have enough for retirement. Do these young people even have the money for retirement or see retirement when their time comes? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Showster Twincharged August 29, 2018 Share August 29, 2018 We are a metropolis with very little options. If we had chosen the Bhutan path then we would not be where we are today. No matter who you change to, the outcome is the same if they have the same mindset. Real change is only possible if you choose someone like Mahathir. But do you seriously want that to happen?

Showster Twincharged August 29, 2018 Share August 29, 2018 Any change will not adjust the pain one bit, but runs the risks of deepening everybody's pain. Think Brexit, think Mahathir and PH, or Australia PM... Only mature democracies that are LARGE (won't be overrun forever) and are used to change like US can cope with regular change.

Go read Animal Farm. Animal Farm ........ reminded me of this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b52xVnZBs7E yes yes , agree any change has risks for the better or worst . All depends on the nature of the leaders and their true objectives. I dont think SG need to go their such big change to realise the change. Fascinating , how Animal Farm and me have the same idea .......... Pig and politicians can no longer be distinguished . not forgetting the easily fooled fellow animals ↡ Advertisement 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
