Sleazy Singapore?

Well, today is a not so good day for me...went to work as usual...waking up half an hour late...lol...but I still made it on time...amazingly...=P

Anyway, my sis told me about an event where women pose topless and wash cars in Singapore. I did not believe her...so I bought The New Paper when I knocked off and had a look myself...well, it is true afterall. There is no point denying it myself...it is all over the front page of the New Paper today. I am disgusted, truly disgusted. So now we have free porn as advertising gimicks?

Perhaps I am not in any right to judge the organiser and the "models" who went for it. First, the organiser just wanted to give his company a boost in the limelight...and since SEX SELLS, why not...and second, since there are WILLING GALS, why not!

BUT...what about ethics? What abt law? Are there still law and order in the society concerning such things?

Quoting from the New Paper, Oct 4th, page 3:
"In Singapore, a person who appears nude in a public place or in a privare place that is exposed to public view will be committing an offence. Offenders can be fined up to $2000, jailed up to three months, or both under the Miscellaneous Offences (Public Order and Nuisance) Act. The Act also refers to persons dressed in a manner that offends public decency. Any person found guilty of indecnt behavior in a public place can be fined up to $1000 or jailed up to a month, for a first time offender."
Unquote

So, in this case, whereby "models" wash cars in their topless gears....is it a crime? Lawyers said that it is. But they are not the ones to judge, for they are just puny little toy soldiers in the battle. Lawyers said that the judgement of whether it is a crime will depend on public reaction...and when that happens, it would be up o the Attorney-General's Chamers to make a stand....I wonder what kind of stand that would be...if it happens....and if it WILL happen...

Will Singaporeans be willing to stand up and say that is quite enough, thank you very much. Or will they just shut up and pretend it never happen? One person standing up is not good enough...and it is of no use to stand and say, I HAD ENOUGH...and the rest sit quietly and watch u die...so in my opinion, nobody will... even me...yes, I am a coward too...only dare to rant here...but would not dare to stand and fight...

Then again, what is there to stand and fight anymore? Is Singapore still a place for real true-blood Singaporeans, whose forefathers came from all over the world and settled down here and build a home? Or has Singapore become a sleazy country, an easy country to come in and become citizens, enjoy all the perks that are paid for by the taxes of the real Singaporeans, made money here, and go back to their HOMELAND to march in their parade?

It is ironic...how our government seemingly supports all the foreigners and nelgects its own people? Why are the foreigners getting citizenships so easily? Why does our minister say that the foreign import is necessary because our citizens are not reproducing? How can we get married and reproduce when everything is soo expensive that there is no way we can afford? How can we get married when we can't even manage to get a flat? And why are the foreigners getting free education? And WHY do our new citizens have the luxury of not having their children to do NS? (I think the reason given is ridiculous! Scaring them away! What about us? Are we supposed to take it as a compliment? Coz we are not being scared? Coz we are not COWARDS?)

Things are changing rapidly in the society here, and one thing I am sure of is this...the "benefits" given to this bunch of FTs (I prefer to call them FW or FS personally, but for sake of decency, shall use the team FT in its most basic function) will only make us Singaporeans angrier than before. Admittedly, there are good and honest true FTs around, working alongside us Singaporeans to make society a better place, but these are rapidly disappearing, as they move on to other places after Singapore gets more and more degraded with the influx of the fake FTs around.

These so-called FTs which are left, are the ones who will talk as loud as they please in public transport, even when it is 6am in the moring...they are the ones who will seduce the men out of their CPF money, they are the ones who will go around leering at girls, they are the ones who will snatch the place of your kid in "good" schools, they will snatch even the bed of the hospital when you want to give birth...(oh, but I forgot, we Singaporean women REFUSED to give birth...sorry, my bad...) and they will also be the ones who will populate all the shops, restuarants, offices and what's not and snatch away your jobs...

Singapore is no longer for us...it is a land for the opportune. No longer is it a safe haven...but a place on a verge of collasping upon itself....
