This is the first time I am blogging, took quite some time to navigate on how to use it. When I read some news, I always have some thoughts and don't know where to express so I think blogging is a good way to do it.
This is also my first post, not sure what to start with. Maybe I will start with the current hot topic on the Population white paper. This is already a very sensitive topic so I think PAP did a wrong move by naming it as Population White Paper, leaving the impression that it producing a research to justify its policy to increase population. They should come out with something like a Singapore Future white paper and research on how popluation planning can contribute to a better future. I will come out with an alternative "white paper" of my own that focus on a better Singapore Future in my next post.
I also just read a remark made by PAP MP Teo Ser Luck. Here is the extract from Yahoo! News:
"On Tuesday, Pasir Ris-Punggol MP Teo Ser Luck told reporters that the building of more childcare centres in Punggol East would be ‘difficult to facilitate’ as PAP are no longer the representatives for the area, having lost the seat to WP’s Lee."
It is very shocking to me that he made such comments. Setting up Childcare centres is one of the paramount factors in improving child birth so government should do it wherever there is a need, regardless of which party managing the constituency. I am sure WP MP will be very willing to cooperate if the government is pushing for more childcare centres in Punggol East. Is this a sign of the character degrading of PAP MPs?
