Cooling Day

Today is Singapore's Cooling Day for tomorrow's General Elections Polling Day.

The sun shows no mercy like as if Mister Sun is casting millions of raging fiery flaming missiles down our backs with a smug on his face.

Not at all a cooling day.

After nine days of campaigning from all of the political parties, it made me realize one clear and unmistakable strategy the opposition tends to adopt during their rally speeches.

MONEY. *ka-ching*

"Why are the ministers' getting $15,000 a month?"

Upon that question is being asked or made, the audience will jeer along with it.

The opposition consistently uses money to instill antagonism into Singaporeans. In fabricating their mindset that the party is able to apprehend the true lives of Singaporeans.

It feels like they understand that what we want is all related to money. If the government spent billions on something, we would get all upset. "Why not help the poor and the needy with that amount instead?" We would all question.

With the oppositions emphasizing on how they can make a better Singapore, to help Singaporeans and not leave anyone behind - already won the hearts of many.

With the PAP emphasizing that they are willing to transform to a better government, to provide more accountability within the parliament - already assures the unease for many as well.

All I can say about our dear Singapore is... Do not solely get your news feed from the local news. It is just all cover ups. Though, it has improved throughout the years, the media still is biased.

OPEN UP your eyes, Singaporeans, especially those 35 years and above (yes, that includes all the Ah Ma and Ah Peks). Time has changed and politics methods will inevitably have to tweak according to the society.

Mindset changes with time.

=============

Is money, really everything in life?

I do not get it.

I always believe in this: Air, Water & Sun - The most important things in life are free.

Stop and smell the flower but do not get stung by the bee.
