The PAP Govt always like to think differently, away from the norm, and relishes being the non-conformist in the public eye,
crazy about galloping GDP growth at all costs, even at the cost of losing the nation's identity and soul.
The speedchanging social and physical landscape have made us the local born citizens very lost and unhappy, since the gradual demise of the oldguard politicians, there is no one to rein in the younger politicians dewy eyed fantasies and create policies that affect and upset the people.
We have to keep a nervous and suspicious mind on the large cohort of neighbours suddenly swarming our place from nowhere, making us question "Are we in Singapore".
Just imagine feeling lost in our own country.
