Watch It!! The Government is VOTE-BUYING!!

I smell that the Gahmen has been trying to buy votes for the past 5 years! 

Don’t believe me? 

Here is the evidence!

1)  Cooling Measures for Property

Remember how we complained about the cash over valuation and how it was really expensive for first timers to buy a flat? Guess what? They purposely impose property cooling measures to lower housing prices so more people can afford a home. 

Confirm Gahmen is buying votes from young couples!

2)   Medishield Life

    Government has insider information that Singapore’s population is aging, some people could fall sick and some will need to be hospitalised. So, they quickly introduce Medishield Life which will cover everybody including those with pre-existing illness.  

Confirm Gahmen is buying votes from older Singaporeans!

3)   Downtown Line 2

     You know how the MRT breaks down and causes delay ever so often these days? So the government quickly open Downtown Line 2 this coming December, ahead of schedule to reduce load on the current lines and let us get to work and home faster. 

Confirm Gahmen is buying votes from the working class!

4)  More healthcare

The opening of the 700 bed Ng Teng Fong General Hospital and 400 bed Jurong Community Hospital will almost certainly benefit the us who live in the West. 

Confirm Gahmen is buying votes from people living in the west!

5)  Pioneer Generation Package

Seniors aged 65 and above are now given the title of “Pioneer Generation” and they get so many goodies, from discounted health care to priority queues at NTUC Fairprice! They get special treatment everywhere they go. 

Confirm Gahmen is buying votes from the elderly.

6)  One-year road tax rebate for Singaporean drivers

Because of higher petrol tax, the government introduced a one year road tax rebate for petrol cars.  20% rebate for cars, 60% rebate for motorcycles and 100% rebate for commercial vehicles. 

Confirm Gahmen is buying votes from car owners, motorcyclists, private bus drivers, etc!

7)  GST Vouchers

The Government introduced a permanent GST Voucher to help Singaporeans offset the GST that they pay each year. And as if this is not enough, they even went to the extent of increasing the cash quantum by $50 this year! 

Confirm Gahmen is buying votes from 1.6 million Singaporeans who will benefit from this!

See, see, see! So many goodies dished out by our Gahmen. If it’s not vote buying, then what?!

Lai, lai, lai! Please continue to throw goodies at me and buy my vote! But I can’t promise I won’t complain hor :)
