Don't be a lemming.

(I have since had an "update" of political views, please go to www.fivestarsandamoon.com for further reading)

The time has come to elect again.

I'll give you a little hint on my vote...it rhymes with Verkers Barty.

They've done a good job with Hougang and i'm sure they'll do a good job with another
constituency.

Even if they don't win it, i've at least done my part in giving hope to future contestants.

Yes, our current government has done a nifty job of running an island. Yes, things are going dandy. But if we continue to think this way, we might as we well be using fax machines instead of emails, Nokia 3210s instead of PDA phones, Windows 3.11 instead of Windows XP. "If it's not broken, don't fix it" is a tagline for the dying past.

I'm sick of several things:

- Media domination
- Restriction of expression
- Non-transparency of national budgets
- Living in an artificial city where everyone does as they're told
- The banning of cats in HDB estates.

Living in Singapore is like living with your parents. How do you have fun and express yourself when your grand-daddy is always breathing down your neck?

How do you live a real life instead of being a machine bred to grow a nation's economy?

I shouldn't be commenting too much. Just my two cents worth.

But if you don't like it. Stop voting for it. And if you do, don't complain about it.

Just don't be a lemming.
