- “Two Singapores” may emerge if more is not done to fight against inequality, Singapore's Leader of the Opposition Pritam Singh told Parliament on Wednesday (Feb 22). Kicking off the parliamentary debate on the 2023 Budget statement, the Workers’ Party (WP) chief called this potential emergence a threat that has "loomed large on the horizon in the last few years", and one that may become reality.

I am so worried about my son with learning disability.
How he is going to survive after me.
He could not even tie his shoe laces. Yet they made him do NS.
Was bullied there. Now he is on medication for depression. Has ptsd.
Cannot get rider for hospitalisation.
How stupid can the system be to not recognise a disability because it is not Austism or down syndrome.
He was diagnosed with a high disparity between verbal IQ and performance lQ.
Reports from 3 clinical psychologist and yet thrown into NS.
Now will they take resposiblity for his condition and take care of him?
Of course not.
Really sorry to hear your situation. I humbly do request you to take this matter with your MP during a MPS session. Maybe they can definitely make some sort of arrangements for him.
There are smaller systems in place, besides the big mammoth system for the majority, that caters for SN children. One is SN schools. Another is where parents study SN ways of grooming their kids to facilitate their learning. Some working companies do employ SN staff with on-job learning like Hans restaurant, McDonalds, etcetera.
You have to BRING your case heard. Go to your MP & also to the Opposition Parties. It is only fair for you & your son AND FOR THEMSELVES THIS WAY. It is Justice involved here.
Wow he is really on the ground as connected.. that’s what I get from this speech
On the ground
Not on lofty mountain
He should know soul tongue school ppl hard life, colonial tongue school ppl hard life
Wow, Mr Singh, you have impressed me. Too bad we are unable to vote for the WP in Choa Chu Kang GRC.
Excellent speech by Mr Pritam Singh👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. Glad to hear alternative views.
4:06 true, inequality begins in our schooling system, specifically by the PSLE streaming 12 year olds based on 4 subjects, prematurely, and failing to recognise their natural abilities & talents. For example, those who r weak in English or math, may hv brains that incline toward design, digital, verbal expressions, leadership quality etc… condemning hundreds of thousands of 12 yo normal streams is demoralising.🙁
That's an important point. When my son joint primary school, I was taken by surprise to learn they have literally only 4 real subjects. We detected in terms of general knowledge, such as science subjects, geography and history he was way behind the German school at the similar grade. He visited a German school as a guest.
Even now, at S2 level, he is literally years behind in certain subjects. When the German kids learn about the world, Chemistry, Physics, Biology, etc., he learns about Poton Pasir and Temasek. And arts is replicating a certain task which is given by the teacher, but nothing much creative.
I understand now a lot better why Singapore's international schools educate what the local schools claim, i.e. broader general knowledge, holistic education, thinking broader and ahead.

@@tonykiang9052 One of my son's friends had AL22, which is "normal" stream (note: 75 % have express stream, so it is quite bad). Nothing done for extra points, no CCA. With other words: A lazy bugger.
His parents bought him into Hwa Chong. I did not even know such is possible.
@@krollpeter Wow! Its "miraculous" bro
This is the kind of Alternative Parties we want more in Parliament.
Singapore needs more of this kind of politician (MP) to stand up and speak up for the people of Singapore. 👍❤️
It is bold for Mr Singh to speak on two Singapores. To my observation, two Singapores already formed years ago. The core question is wp ready and capable to lead one of two singapores or resurrect the "one nation one singapore" again. Otherwise, whatever said here is just wishful at the end of day!
Hey! Small Singapore cannot go separate like big USA. How about, chop off the head of the tree with strong roots so that a new head can re-grow? Keep the strong institutions, the pm office can be overhauled. Institutions stay relevant by constant self-upgrading -- sheer hard work of responding to multitudes of feedback from ground operations.
This was an incisive, well-researched speech. PAP should take notes.
We already have two Singapores, its called Johor Bahru.
👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you Mr Pritam Singh! The PAP has a long time lost touch with the people.
he is for the people
No leh, quite often there are groups of people coming around hdb flats checking the needs of the people or their satisfaction with services provided...
Pritam the real G have to love him

The gap is widening
Yah, the hardworking contributors & the lay flat complainers! 😜
It's Already 2 SGs
Just Look at KOM CORRUPTION Case Fiasco
the govt is full of crap, and just biding time and hoping no one will say anything about cost of flat.s meanwhile, KPIs will be ticked off, getting huge bonuses, because these were the exact things that happen early on to Singapore.
AWesome job to our earlier ministers, now retiring in comfort while your residents are suffering.
No Thanks to the PAP, the Sunshine Bread has increased from normally $3.30 to today I noticed at $3.90, a whopping $0.60 cents increase or 18.18% increase which can be attributed to the multiplying effects of the recent GST hike of 1%.
So the Pertinent Question is;
When the PAP said GST Hike will not hurt the poor, were they basing on the 1% hike OR the Overall multiplying effect on the Price?
These days, its getting harder to trust anything they say.
Hike of 1% from 7% = over 14%. Then with added "legalize" profiteering practice ended up 18%. Now buying overseas online also need to pay GST tax. Does the tax dollar goes to the government or those overseas merchants? What stop those merchants under reporting and keep the remainder.
Next year another hike, another increase. Good luck.
Wow are you serious?Things are so bad in Singapore already to this point already. A loaf of sunshine bread cost $3.90?! How is your people going to survive in Singapore like this.😲
Yes, you are right, in the real world the prices do not increase by 1%, there is a multiplying effect, and it will almost certainly overcompensate. The GST vouchers payouts are too low because it treats GST increase as a technical calculation rather than taking into account real life increases.
@@Niatnuom_Esiotrot For Clarity, The Multiplying Effects imply the GST Hike applies on everything for example on the ingredients cost example, 1% more on sugar, 1% more of soya sauce, 1% more on Electricity, 1% more on Rental, 1% more on oil, 1% more on Petrol, 1% more on transport etc to prepare the food. ALL THESE REVENUES ARE COLLECTABLE BY THE GOVT, not the Seller, So it is NOT 1% but multiples of 1%. The easiest to compare is to compare with equivalent Johore supermarket price for example [NOT NTUC].
@@ttkoh123 I understand what you are saying. We are talking about different types of multiplication, but eventually the conclusions are the same, as in the price increases is not 1%. Your multiplication is via snowballing accumulation of increases. What I am saying is not just that it is accumulating, the increases per time has a minimum value, and this minimum value might exceed the technical value of 1%.
Perilous times
Life is bleak in Singapore, there is only work & work for a salary that is increasingly getting weaker due to rising inflation. "Affordable" housing is now a lifelong payment commitment, after paying housing loans, and various other necessities, we are only left with a pittance amount of money that can be put into savings and investing, making a dignified retirement a hope for many rather than a feasible reality. What used to a strategy of owning several properties for investment is now no longer feasible for most, investing in local properties is now only for the rich. This gap will only continue as the government focuses on making Singapore an attractive place for the rich instead of making it a place where average Singaporeans can be proud to call home.

If the gov housing policies is so great why the flats in Seng Kang still go up
Govt can control the hdb price and provide and protect for true born here citizens not those who walk in out if nowhere in the middle if their age
As someone who supports PAP, I appreciate Mr Pritam's suggestions. He made some really valid points and should be considered into policies. Man I came to this video from Mr. Leong's speech in the parliament recently. In terms of IQ, its like moving from Freezing Temperature to Boiling Point in a sec! LMAO :D 😂😂😂😂
This is like free consultancy for the working government. If only an open-minded learning stance is poised by the people in positions of influence.
Yes. One buy HDB resale flat with subsides and another that buy HDB resale flat with 1 million dollar cash.
In town area, a 50sqm 1 bedroom private condo will cost around S$2 million after adding in all the costs.
So, how developers should price their 3 bedroom private condos in other parts of Singapore? S$2 million per unit?
So, you're going to sell your HDB 4-rm flat below S$500k?
Reversely, will you sell your 3-bedroom condo below S$2 million when HDB 4-rm flats are selling above S$500k?
The bad news is that all home owners know that Singapore is facing a serious housing problem and that property prices will continue to cheong up.
Ha ha ha!

there is this design philosophy in game design... the higher your character level up, the harder in nature and more in points to accumulate to up level as the level up goes on (for eg 500pts to level up from 1 to 2 but would need 40k around level 30 to 31). should everything be uniform, the gap between starting players and old players would get uncontrollably wider and nobody new coming in to play it anymore and the game dies. The widening of gaps would still be there but it will give better incentives for people behind to catch up.

Grow up, is rich and poor
Untalented rich is stil up in the sky then talented poor
Best bet on meritocracy, though it is not perfect. Then again perfectionists are extremists.
With the current ruling government in Singapore, COE, HDB prices, food prices, petrol prices, GST have all increased and it's hurting everyday lives of Singaporeans both in the short term and long term. I think we need to change something here because doing the same thing over and over again but expecting a different result is just irrational.
The debate is on 'affordability' of the young. Besides financial affordability, what about social, mental, generational, spiritual and other 'affordabilities' in order to live on with some humanistic values?
Singaporeans, especially in light of the escalating cost of living, some from the People’s Action Party (PAP) have expressed concerns about the country’s fiscal room in the future.
But don’t the PAP MPs seem to be missing “the elephant in the room”?
It should be noted that S$19.58 billion of Special Transfers, including Top-ups to Endowment and Trust Funds, are being charged off as one year’s expenditure when they are meant to fund spending for many years into the future.
If you expect the opposition to sit back and say then means u want the opposition to have no teeth!!
Well said, Pritam!
PAP, wake up!
Easier said than done. One way is to see Hougang, Aljunied and SengKang managed into shining humanistic wards given limited resources -- by tapping into the initiatives of people with more free wills and voluntary efforts.
Tiny island also got division

In a scarce natural resource country, there's no escaping the need for individuals to improve their skills above and beyond the rest for a better quality of life. There will be many Singapores, not just two, as each individual is unique. Politics of envy will not cut it as high flyers will be high flyers and they fly away easily to where there are opportunities and quality. Harping on inequality will only encourage envy and dissension. The focus should be on incentives for betterment quietly.
His assessment is 99 percent accurate that SG will be divided into 2 in the future.

Inconvenient questions for the govt and WP:
1) Govt, what and where are the feedback connections from previous initiatives to new initiatives?
2) WP, what is your alternative for each initiative you are commenting on?
Two Singaporeans started when are all can afford to eat Fast Foods and Bubble Teas.
You all can comment like grandfather and grandmother stories here but it will not make a difference. The better way is to give feedback at Forward Singapore or join talks with the minister. It is easy to criticize but to govern the country with no natural resources is definitely not easy.
Glad that PM Lawrence Wong has taken over.
I am sure he heard you already & would work closely with all, over these widespread wights by surfacing from a pocket borough.

I think the Grant "could" signify the intention of the MIW to inflate the Public Housing Price further at our expense because the Grant flows back to them and I would suspect the purpose is to prop "growth" to substantiate themselves, all at our expense. Or Someone of you want to tell me the Grant comes from their Personal Salary?
There’s only 1 fast way to drop the resale prices. Make it harder to buy. Cut financing, increase tax.
But to the cash rich, it wouldn’t matter, those who are cash strapped would be impacted more.
The grant is only granted to first time hdb buyers. Private owners can’t buy hdb resale for 15months. So it is really targeted.

Brillantly said
Wow he mean pap waste money and nvr produce results for job creation? Then where did the $ go?
Good luck two singaporeans..
A few days ago I made an observation that Singapore is not lacking in terms of news and views from another perspective. The good oppositions and non partisan Singapore pap haters work relentlessly on all pap msm to made sure Singaporeans are not brainwashed and poisoned by doctrines.
What Singapore lacks however is a prominent face and figure. Someone who the nation can immediately recognize and think of if people want to overthrow pap.
For years the nation of Singapore and her per people can't move past the stage of being under the grasp of the pap because they have no one else in life if they abandon pap. That is what they think and believe all these years.
Singapore needs a revolutionary leader to step up to lead the people out of the darkness.
This Pritam Singh has that potential.
Anyone who is willing to stick their identity and face out while exposing pap wrong doings is a strong candidate for setting Singapore back on its correct path in life.
First of all mr pritam himself will disagree with you. Secondly, revolutionary leader needs more than just able to talk and debate. Thirdly, there is no need for revolution. There is peace and low crime in Singapore. There is meritocracy in singapore. Lastly, opposition even if they win all their seats, cannot form a govt and that shows a lack of political credibility. If you want a revolution just because you feel sian, thats not gonna cut it
@@yusufbest4475 No you are wrong. In Singapore you need a face and identity so that Singaporeans can know where to find you when they are in trouble.
The problem with Singapore's political landscape is there are a lot of ghost writers with the good 9nes being able to accurately point out pap wrong doings in life but they are of no real help to the people in reality at all because people can't reach them nor can people have a trustable figure to turn to.
In Singapore if you think about appearing only when general elections are coming and you can win people votes over this way you will be very disappointed. This is an ineffective method as past electoral results and patterns have shown but you all keep doing the same thing over and over again.
Not to mention the pap will go full force using their media and grassroot to fix the oppositions during elections as well as send moles and saboteurs into all parties to cause sabotage to the parties reputation and credibility.
Every five years you all can see these easily for yourselves.
You need a brave person who cares strongly about Singapore to stand against pap onslaught and the dirty tricks they throw at your direction to prevail.
A hard battle I know but it cannot be avoided. Only this way can sing5and her people can be saved from the tyranny of pap.
@@anglo-saxonconnor817
i think you dont know the definition of tyranny.. Singapore is not the ideal country but it is far away from tyranny. It is just a small country that has find a way to survive despite lack of natural resources and a small pool of talent. Yeah, political freedom can be improved but its not too bad. There are pros to those limitations as well such as the curbing of radicalism and disharmony. As I say, there is peace, low crime, there is meritocracy, there is a lot of conveniences like mrt, good drinking water.. the reason most opposition failed is because they are not credible in the first place. Yeah PAP is a giant and if you want to challenge a giant, you have to be a giant or bigger. Can pritam singh unite the opposition or call pap ministers to join his party? I dont see that happening so.. I think that it is a delusion to think of tyranny or revolution when it comes to singapore.. maybe improvement..anyway, im just a common singaporean and this is just my 5 cents :)
To summarize your line of thinking and value. You are accustomed to the way of life as a commoner in Singapore and as long as there is food,safety and meritocracy in Singapore you can live with pap most of the time. At most you will only ask for improvement but whether pap as they grow stronger will listen to it is another story together.
You are not wrong actually. You are just used to staying in your comfort zone. The environment and way of life that pap has built and created for you.
There is only one flaw in people like you. The inability to see once meritocracy and political power is secured by what they can use from that point onward to take themselves upward.
Aka as apathy in life.
For decades pap ibs have used this trait to groom and train people in order to keep them under control. You are the result of their social conditioning.
I want to see a revolution in these areas which they have monopolized for years. This is the difference between you and me. Because you don't see the seriousness and worth in these issues.
But those are big money and power. Both which can be fairly redistributed to make Singapore even better not just for the pap affiliates but for the whole instead.
We are not quarreling here. I don't see you as a ib isee you as a real person so that's why we are having this exchange here. I understand where you are coming from and likewise I hope you will understand where I'm coming from too.
If you can try to look beyond that comfort zone and see how they are living and using what kinds of means to sustain it. Much of the cracks that are appearing now in sg are because of this rot. It might not seem serious and apparent enough for you right now but when it does it might be too late to stop it.
If a rot can be nip early on it shouldn't be left to advance.
Anyway your likes in your post will eclipse mine. In Singapore pap see worker party as their biggest threat in life and when members of wp names are mentioned in a good light the attacks and votes of no confidence will pour in strongly. (The ibs will always look down on wp and remind everyone they are under investigation even though they are not guilty of any charged verdict.)
I don't take offence in your post as I find it reasonable to certain extents but your post and beliefs will help those who will use it to further cement a lasting negative impression on opposition parties and members in Singapore resulting in minimal changes in Singapore political landscape which is what they want the whole time.
I give you an example.
We must never let oppositions get into parliament.
But some of them have already made it into parliament meaning our control over the populace has weakened. We cannot let them grow stronger anymore.
Any prominent and visible names not belonging to the pap side will be regularly smeared to attack on their growing popularity and credibility.
This is what is currently going on in your country Singaporeans. If I can see it there is no reason why you all can't then.
Good luck Singaporeans. Maybe some of you think I'm over stressing on pap flaws more than their merits the whole time but to me Singapore is just too small. If you allow pap to continue to simply use foreign influx to solve your country domestic problems away at a surface level all the time instead of doing a real structural change then in the end it is you yourselves who suffer in Singapore.
It's not a joke living and ageing in such a small city state with millions in it. You could have a choice to avert and change this if you are willing to exercise your citizen rights more often in life.
That is how I see things in life.
Two Singapores?
The Great Asia didn't tell you that Singapore is ONE-COUNTRY-TWO-SYSTEM?
Divide the population of the country into two halves, let's call the first half the "Landlord", and the next half the "Peasant". The Peasant works for the Landlord and makes them richer. The landlord then uses the new wealth to acquire more lands. What do you think would happen to the children and grandchildren of the Peasant?
More than 50% of future generations will be born in HDB-4rm flats and trapped in HDB 4-rm flats for life.
In the past decade, PAP has built so many little HDB flats and condos. There will be a huge angst from Singaporeans who are not able to upgrade to a bigger living space.
Imagine a population density of more than 10,000 per sqkm, and people living in compact spaces in perpetual.

But not judge the rest of the rich and wealthy who got them by fair means of sheer hard work, maybe with luck and rich parents too.
Let's not "throw the baby out together with the dirty bath water".
It is in opposition parties' interest to see a "two Singapores". Since PAP has a simple majority of voters at the moment, any fracture in society has the higher chance of it coming from their voter base. Every split in their voter base reduces the chance of PAP winning another election.
I urge all opposition parties and anti-PAP Singaporeans to do everything in their means to fracture the society and split groups. The more polarized the better. Onward Singapore.

What is "could" ? It has already emerged long ago already and it's not just two Singapore made up of poor and rich. There's also little china,little India,little Burma,little england,little blah blah blah as well already.
God knows how many Singapore are within Singapore itself by now. Lol😂
Yah, the poor man keep shouting that his rich & the rich man claiming that he is a humble working class! 😜
@@鲁焚化炉 I only have to give you one reply no matter what you say and how many times you come into my threads.
I am a landed resident. You are not. I don't care how hard you scrub pap balls hoping for some help up in life or whether you are some migrant bringing some savings over to Singapore and hole yourself up in a condo over there thinking you have made it in life. Such achievements are insignificant in my eyes. Just what is mine alone is enough to made you very envious already. Not to forget I have the backing and inheritance of an entire family clan behind me.
I am rich. I stand with the house of Commons. And I have more than you.
What else more can I say and ask for in life. It's natural people like me will attract people like you.
Just Look at KOM CORRUPTION Case Fiasco
It's Already 2 SGs
Our riches come about because we once started out as working class too. There is nothing wrong to remember our roots and to defend the working class.
Only those who have cut off their past and those without conscience will laugh at the working people.
Your words reveal your values and character. 🙂
Enough said.
Pooooor guy always have to shout that his is rich 😜
Talk a lot do a bit
Talk less, do more. Show more, tell less. Teach less, learn more. Self-learn, heed more, seek less.
Mt Pritam Singh, you too naughty lah!
Please don't tell the king that he is naked lah!
Ha ha ha!
Only the naked man thought that others are naked! 😜
I think PS then is naked

Atam is rude. His household probably uses the CDC 300 voucher as well and yet he mocks or insults SG Budget.
Should review the Silver Support Scheme qualification rules. Many work hard in their younger years only to be punished in their older year and reward those who slacked
when they are young. This rule of $140,000 in their CPF account when at 50 years is absurd. Thus, those who don't contribute to CPF automatically qualify for the scheme.
If you focus your mind sufficiently, you will realise that the main beneficiaries of the scheme are: 1)Housewives (no formal work, no cpf). 2)Disadvantaged/persons with disability (cannot work or low pay). 3)Micro business self-employed (for example hawkers), some successful ones do make good money, but these are already excluded by other qualification rules. None of these people are slackers and their contribution to nation building cannot be zero.
@@Niatnuom_Esiotrot "3)Micro business self-employed (for example hawkers), some successful ones do make good money, but these are already excluded by other qualification rules."
What other rules? Do you really know what are the actual qualification rules for the SSS. Can you find them in the first place? Many give up after much searching. No joke. Unless they use the search function at the website. Why so sneaky?
I have met plenty ppl with class-war mentality, whatever the poor gets they want it too, because the poor closing the social-economic gap on them irritates them. The vast majority getting silver support are not slackers, it's disrespectful to make such an argument.
@@balloonbuster The information is openly available on the internet. 1.Self-employed are assessed by their incomes from age 45-54, it has to be lower than a certain level or they will be kicked out of the scheme. If one is really successful, they will reasonably want to buy larger houses and investment properties to grow their wealth. 2.If they have an investment property, the private property rule will kick them out of the scheme. 3.If they own 5-room or larger hdb, the 5-room or larger rule will kick them out of the scheme. I hope you are not thinking the civil servants who devised the scheme have an IQ of 70.
They are not being slack. In the past the job market was not as developed as today standards and many people do work that did not have their employers contributing to their cof accounts which is very common in door sales,renovating,plumbing,packing jobs etc. Society back then was just not as well developed and monitor as now to be frank which causes some people to become overlooked and marginalised in latter years. Don't be so hard on them.
No one can afford not to work and slack into old age to receive handouts in Singapore.

The government is good in wasting money.
You mean churning money? $1 in a bank can be churned into $8 economically. Then distribution by equal opportunities by sheer hard work both physically and mentally would ensure more acceptance.
WHEN A COUNTRY WORSHIP ONLY $$$$$ ALL EVIL COULD FOLLOW AND WAIT FOR WHICH UNFORTUNATE GENERATION HAD TO FACE THE ADVERSITY AND SOME PAY WITH THEIR LIFE. 😱 BUT THOSE POLICY MAKER HAD ALREADY DEAD WHEN POLICY BACK FIRE JUST LIKELY FAMILY PLANNING POLICY IMPLEMENTED 45 YEARS AGO. 😹😹😹
How do you add on non-economical aspects of living like social and spiritual pursuits without throwing away the pragmatic economic necessities? Even religious institutions are thriving on economic terms. For example, try religious study in hot humid SG without the comfort of air-con procured by economic means.
i believe everything LEE HSIEN LOONG says and all his actions
I will be mean to my siblings and their spouse after my dad pass away
You can tackle the behavior separate from the person.
If all cheap cheap sell, cheap cheap buy...ppl think 🤔 why no value, waste money 💰.
If all inflate as "planning", citizens have to work harder and spend more.
GDP can go up, more global status.
Meritocracy society demands this methodology... LOL 🤣🤣🤣
LKY direction of sociology adaptations do make SG the first class global state that PAP vision and pioneer for 55yrs of nation building. 🤔📢🫶😅💲🏗️🏦🌇🫂🇸🇬
