Pa is not link.. but why should.pa exist even in the first place?? And why are they still exosting if the people are not reached.

then why should I make a difference to volunteer if pa is not there to serve it purpose

if u guys find the current grassroots so horrigible.. why not join them, just to make a real difference?

My boss was commenting last week, his plc RC 100% run by this grp of PRC.. he's just submitted his volunteer form. If a true blue local dun step in to try to change things, leaving a grp of PRC to do as they wish, w/o even realising that they are bringing their culture into SG.

If all positions are held by new citizens... coz local citizens all dun wan 2 make a difference, how den to put the black sheep into their right place?
when u joined them.....you are to do what you are told and not the other way round....it still don't make any difference at all.

Exactly. But the more such behaviour they resort to, the more ppl will vote against them in frustration and disappointment. The more we hv ppl who rather vote for a road sweeper from non-PAP than a scholar from PAP camp.

The more they want to tekan, the more it reflects back upon them.

These actions just created a school of voters who "Vote Against" them. Very playground politics
