At the previous election, I was very impressed by the Workers' Party and its candidates.
I thought I shouldn't always be just sitting down and complaining about things but to do
something useful
And I joined the Workers' Party hoping to contribute something.
I fear that my three small children, one 7 years old and in Primary 2 and twin babies 9 months old.
I'm afraid for their future, whether they will have a bright future.
Not only for me, but for all other Singaporeans too with small children.
I worry if they can get into University with all these challenges.
I worry if they can get a job.
I worry if they can afford to buy their own HDB flats, twenty years on.
Although the PAP has gotten a passing grade over the past five decades, it is beginning
to lose touch with the people that it is supposed to lead, and care for.
Everything is measured in dollars and cents.
Speeches by Ministers, the GDP growth figures prominently. I feel that although money is
important, people are more important than that.
I want to bring the Government's attention to people, and to remind the Government that
people come first.
Thank you.
