2 Days to "Say No To 6.9M" - Singaporeans Are Not Fair-Weather Wimps!

If Valentine's Day is named as a day to celebrate love of the romantic kind on 14 February all over the world, how should we name 16 February in Singapore this year onward? "Love Singapore Day", "Save Singapore Day, "Stand Up For Singapore Day" or simply "Singapore Day".

With the time spent updating daily the blog and the running around taking monstrous pics at street corners to create vids [Link] my wife wonders on this Valentine's Day if I'm tempting another heart attack? Fortunately, like me, she is grateful for the bonus time I have since my last heart trauma. We both know well that if it is time to be fedtothefish then it is time to go in peace.

Despite 17 hours of rain, when the first election rally of WP was held at Punggol East [Link],  thousands with feet in the mud [Link] turned up to support another alternative voice in parliament. As it's been raining dogs an cats these few days, I hope the weather will be kind this Saturday when we gather at Hong Lim Park at 4pm.

Whatever the weather, I'm confident that Singaporeans who care enough are not fair-weather wimps who are afraid to get wet or get their feet dirtied. I hope to be In The Moment again in Hong Lim Park with a much bigger crowd.

To be part of a gathering to show the world that we are not so 'daft' as to allow a government to let foreigners invade us is to fulfill an important item in my bucket list. Without the need of "spurs in our hides" we will dress up and show up this Saturday.

As I so often mention, bitching, talking, blogging and forwarding emails and is not enough.

Come rain, shine, thunder or lightning, we must all stand up for Singapore, for our children and their children. Get your umbrellas, your ponchos ready!

Singaporeans aren't Quitters!
Singaporeans aren't Fair Weather Wimps!
Singaporeans aren't Pushovers!
Singaporeans aren't Retards!

The Singapore Pledge is not an Aspiration!
The Singapore Pledge is now a Call To Action!
On 16 February 2013, Singaporeans will gather at Hong Lim Park at 4pm to BE, not pledge, not aspire, but 

TO BE ONE UNITED PEOPLE,
REGARDLESS OF RACE, LANGUAGE OR RELIGION 
TO BUILD A DEMOCRATIC SOCIETY
BASED ON JUSTICE AND EQUALITY
SO AS TO  ACHIEVE HAPPINESS, PROSPERITY AND
PROGRESS FOR OUR NATION

TO PROTECT OUR CHILDREN AND OUR GRANDCHILDREN
FROM BEING INVADED BY UNCOUTH FOREIGNERS
WHO SO ARROGANTLY TAKE AWAY 
OUR JOBS, 
OUR HOUSES,
OUR LANGUAGES,  
OUR LIVING SPACES AND 
OUR RIGHTS TO PRESERVE OUR WAY OF LIFE.

3 Days To "Say No to 6.9M" - Why PAP Ministers and MPs are Perpetually at Street Corners?

I just come to understand the term 'Publicity Whores" and I think PAP makes the worst kind!

The ubiquitous banners with faces of MPs and Ministers in every PAP constituency in Singapore is pretty telling. They are there at every celebration - Banners wishing you 'Selamat Hari Raya", "Merry Christmas", Happy Deepavali", Gong Xi Fa Cai" and everything else.  Why do PAP have to cheapen themselves for publicity?

I do not see the faces of WP MPs in banners in Alunied, Hougang or Punggol East at their street corners. Residents there are blessed that they don't have such publicity whores staring at them. 

Is it due to the fact that WP MPs walk the ground more often and their residents know who they are. Hence, there is no need to advertise themselves at street corners?

Maybe PAP MPs should get out of their ivory towers and get to know their residents too instead of outsourcing their jobs to the CCCs and RCs.

Why such monstrosity at their street corner at every festive occasion?
Every street and corner
You will see their faces
Make you very nauseous
These useless selfish leeches
How they A.I.M. we cannot see
Screwed we are by PAP

To endorse the White Paper to import foreigners to increase Singapore's population to 6 million in 2020 and 6.9 million in 2030 is to screw up the lives of my children and my grandchildren.
I feel strongly that if I let them ride roughshod over me now without a whimper, I would have failed in protecting the interests of my children and my grandchildren.
Please help me and join me in telling the PAP that
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

4 Days to "Say No To 6.9M"

Instead of 4.30pm, the Event will start at 4pm on Saturday 16 Feb 2013 at Speakers' Corner, Hong Lim Park.

Below is an update from Mr Gilbert Goh, organizer for the Event.

"We wil be starting the event earlier at 4pm due to the sheer number of speakers we have and other performances. Please try to spread the word around if possible. 

I am also seeing Reuters corrspondent tomorrow for a short interview and BBC has also just contacted me. It looks like the event has garnered worldwde global attention which is phenomenal. 

Many people have asked me what is the dress colour code for the day and obviously its black in colour. Black is the universal protest colour. Do bring your own placards and handheld banners to protest peacefully at the event. 

We should be able to confirm if we can do livestreaming by Thursday so that 200,000 overseas Singaporeans and million others worldwide can watch the event live on the internet. It will be a spectacular event so don't miss it Singapore! 

Let us bring our displeasure of the population white paper to the world attention!"

The music I heard when I asked a couple to join us this Saturday:
Husband: "Let's be at Hong Lim Park this Saturday to support 'say no to overpopulating Singapore with foreigners'"
Wife: "Yes, but we have to send our daughter to her art class this Saturday at 4pm"
Husband: "It's better to miss one class than to let her miss a whole future!"

5 Days to "Say No To 6.9M"

Pics extracted from PinkDot.sg [link] showing thousands gathering at Hong Lim Park last year

Is the LBGT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender) community more passionate and courageous than a community of Singaporeans who disagree with the parliamentary endorsement of the White Paper to over-populate Singapore to 6 million by 2020 and 6.9 million by 2030?

I urge all Singaporeans to be with me and my extended family members on 16 Feb 2013 at 4.30pm at Speakers' Corner Hong Lim Park. I have to be there to let Lee Hsien Loong know that all is not well. He, Khaw Boon Wan and Teo Chee Hian amongst the 77 PAP MPs' refusal to listen to our plea that the over-crowding in Singapore is messing us up is equivalent to "sticking their middle finger" at us when they pushed through the White Paper!

That shows the respect the 77 PAP MPs (especially ministers) have for Singaporeans! If they refuse to listen why waste taxpayers money and time on a NATional CONversation?

All of us know that the only way to stop this atrocity committed by PAP is to do what majority of Aljunied, Hougang and Punggol East citizens do. Vote PAP out! However, 2016 may be too late. The damage done by then may be terminal for Singapore. Meanwhile we must stand up as Singaporeans to let PAP know that artificially importing citizens to this 710 square kilometre of land is creating much unhappiness and will lead to madness and perdition! 

I'm very sure that some members of LBGT are reading this blog. I hope you good folks can help stand up for our kids and our kids' kids. Please don't let PAP continue to encourage foreign strangers to take away the little breathing space that we now have.

Please be there 16 Feb 2013 at 4.30pm at Speakers' Corner Hong Lim Park for our selves and our children and children's future survival. [Link]

Regardless of race, language, religion, age, gender, Straight or LBGT, please be present at Hong Lim Park on Saturday, 16 feb 2013 at 4.15pm. 

No dress code required but black will be nice.

6 Days to "Say No to 6.9 million"

May this Chinese New Year bring you joy and courage to be at Hong Lim Park on 16 Feb 2013 to bring peace, prosperity, progress and well-being to you, your children and their children.



While the above video may lighten us up, in a more serious note, Hazel Poa of NSP (National Solidarity Party) has written to the President and Prime Minister of Singapore requesting for a referendum to be held with regards to parliament's endorsement to have a population of 6 million in 2020 and 6.9 million in 2030. [Link]

Knowing Tony Tan and Lee Hsien Loong, we the citizens of Singapore know what the outcome would be of NSP's request. The President and PM can choose to ignore or come up with some excuses that the referendum will be detrimental to Singapore. We shall see.

Meanwhile, while the "Say No to 6.9 million" has gathered much steam in some msm [Link], some commentators are scaring concerned citizens who wish turn up at Hong Lim Park on 16 Feb 2013 that "ang chias" = "red police vans" (intimidating black marias) will be there. It is a shame that male Singaporeans trained in the military NS and doing reservist training can be intimidated by "ang chia" when the future of their descendants are at stake. Or are they not aware of the legitimacy of "Speakers' Corner" at Hong Lim Park for people to gather without fear to listen to speakers speak as long as it does not incite racial or religious sensitivity?

We do not break the law when we gather at Speakers' Corner to show the PAP rulers that having 6 million (in 2020) and 6.9 million (in 2030) when current infrastructure is incapable of supporting 5.3 million is suicidal. Insufficient infrastructures like exorbitant housing, clinics and hospitals, public transportation, school and university places and open spaces are the stuff that bug Singaporeans. The demonstration at Hong Lim Park is a show of solidarity that we love Singapore enough to not let it go to the dogs!

Please hear my plea: [Link]

To the more than 1,100 people who said on a Facebook page that they will or may join the demonstration on Feb. 16 at Speakers’ Corner, please be there.

To the 9,300 who  have also “liked” another page that calls for a stand against the government and “Say ‘No’ to an Overpopulated Singapore.” come rain or shine, thunder or lightning, please be at Hong Lim Park at 4.30pm on 16 Feb 2013 to show our solidarity to have a SINGAPOREAN SINGAPORE!

Bitching, talking, blogging and forwarding emails and is not enough.

We don't want 6 million in 2020 or 6.9 million in 2030!

KEEP SINGAPORE CLEAN (BERSEH)!

7 Days to "Say No to 6.9M"

I cried when I read PM Lee said, "Immigrants have been critical to Singapore's success and over the years, many have embraced Singapore's cause, and made important contributions to Singapore, being the fiercest defenders of Singapore and the most able propounders of our cause and pushing our story worldwide. Rajaratnam was one of them. That's how we become a shiny red dot."  I cried not because he was able to stir my sense of nationalism for my country. I cried because I was offended by the insult he brought to our former ministers like S Rajaratnam. To compare Singapore's founding generation of leaders like Rajaratnam to the mass importation of foreigners now by PAP with open legs is an insult too much to bear.

He went on to say,"So we will watch the numbers. But the Singapore core is not just about the number, it's about the spirit, and when I talked about the spirit earlier and if the spirit is strong, we can manage, and I think it's critical to imbue the younger Singaporeans with the Singapore spirit. We will always put Singaporeans first and make sure that the benefits of population in our population policies flow to Singaporeans" If the PM always put Singaporeans first, why are we suffering now? Why are we crowded out by foreigners who takes over our HDB flats, our cars, our buses, our trains, our roads, our social mores, our decency. They have even taken over our rulers who cares more for them than us!

"But let me add also that at the same time Singapore cannot afford to be just here for the ride- passengers. We are not an oil state, where citizens can live on oil wealth and no citizens do the work. For Singapore to thrive, we Singaporeans must always stay lean and hungry. If we lose our drive, we will lose out" PM Lee has to be mindful not to add insult to injury. Average and poorer Singaporeans work without seeing the 'Blue Sky' to make ends meet. It is audacious of him to insult us like that. I may be wrong but I guess the only people living like they have oil wealth are millionaire ministers and their connected cronies and partners.The rest of us cannot even afford to pay for a $8 for a heart bypass operation!

Instead of PAP MP  Lim Wee Kiat asking Low Thia Khiang to turn on his "hearing aid", it is time for PAP to "turn on its hearing aid" to touch base with reality. They have been in their stratospheric ivory towers for far too long! [Link]

8 Days to " Say No to 6.9M"

Dear readers,

I would appreciate if you read the comments written in this link and this link Not so much on what I wrote but more on what was written by the readers. The anonymous commentators 'do good in secret' what every Singaporean should do this 16 of February 2013.

Anonymously, without declaring who we are, we should just be there in Hong Lim Park at 4.30pm, come rain or shine, thunder or even lightning, to register our frustration at the way PAP rides roughshod over us. You should not worry as the faces of Singaporeans in this video [Link] shows what human rights and democracy is about and what Singapore should be. It is about the right for us to take a stand, to show our joy in doing what is right for our country and our loved ones without fear!

The fear that some Singaporeans have about offending PAP is so ridiculous. Try this:
In a crowded hawker centre or food court, find a table occupied by others with one or two seats still vacant. Ask politely to share the table. After sitting yourself down, say, "Hey, thanks for the seat. Do you think PAP sucks?" The first thing you notice is that the occupants will turn their heads, look behind their shoulders to see if any "PAP ghosts' are around. If you are lucky, they may share their like minded thoughts with you. More often than not, they'd think that you are a crazy nutcase on a path of self destruction. They would then excuse themselves or finish eating as fast as possible to get away from you. Ahem, this is one cool way of clearing seats for your friends in our damned overcrowded hawker centre and food court when you wish to eat at the same table with your friends and colleagues during lunch hour. Try it.

I'm feedmetothefish. I'm just fishfood after I die. I have with the consent of my children and the approval of my wife and my mother (I would have seek my Papa's permission if he is still alive) will that when I die, my children should not put my cremated remains into any urn nor rent a condo in any columbarium to crowd out the little Singapore that we have. Just throw my ashes to the sea and feedmetothefish. A few years ago, when I sent off a dear buddy who walked off before me, we took a boat ride from Pasir Panjang jetty costing $500 for his sea burial. With inflation, I wonder how much PSA would charge for the service when my time comes.

Though I'm anonymous to my readers, I'm sure the power that is knows who I am. Those who love and care for me ask if I'm pushing the envelope too far in blogging the way I do. After reading books written by political detainees like Teo Soh Lung [Link] and Dr Poh Soo Kai [Link1] and Tan Wah Piow [Link2], they worry that "accident" may happen to me or I may be hauled up by ISD in the early morning hours or be slapped with a lawyer's letter for defaming some millionaire PAP politicians.

A couple of my friends in the legal fraternity who care and love me enough took the effort to pass my wife and kids their contact numbers just in case something untoward happens to me. I am most grateful for their kindness, foresight and protection.

If you live the life that I lived, if you love your kids and grandkids the way I love mine, you will do what I do, telling it like it is without fear or favour... and be at Hong Lim Park on 16 Feb 2013.

With PAP's plan to add another 1.7 million people over the next 17 years to make it 7 million by 2030 in Singapore, I cannot, for the life of me, do nothing to protect my offsprings and their children from being raped by a government who cares not for the interests of Singaporeans but their own GDP figures that correspond with their salaries and their political longevity.

On Saturday, 16 February 2013 at 4.30pm, I must be there together with those I love and those who love me at Hong Lim Park to register our contempt for a PAP government devoid of responsibility, sincerity and human kindness.They are neither fair nor just in their governance. As I so often mentioned, the day PAP ministers paid themselves millions, they made a mockery of national service. Not unlike mercenaries, they appear to be serving themselves more than they serve the people.

Dear readers, I need your courage, love and compassion to be with me and my children and grandchildren on 16 February 2013 at Hong Lim Park so that they will have a Singapore in 2030 that they can live with pride, love, joy and dignity. Otherwise, they will be trampled by foreigners who will despise us for the reckless stupidity committed by an irresponsible PAP Government originating from the White Paper of 2013!

Thank you.
