Are you a retard? You went to Chao Yang?
Even if everyone in every political party here has recited the SAF oath in their NS days, it doesn't mean when SAF soldiers recite it, they're reciting to all those parties. Are you an idiot? Why are you born so stupid?
If out of 1625363 Singaporeans who ever took the Cambridge O level paper, 7 of them went to form the JI and became JI regional heads. So it means the rest of the Singaporeans who ever took it before and subsequently took it after, were actually connected to the JI? Did your parents disown you cos you are a retard?

A) Ruling parties or opposition parties, once the election is over, the one with the majority vote wins, meaning they have the mandate of the People to rule. They are no longer 'ruling party' or 'opposition' parties.
They are Singaporeans and the Government of Singapore, the sole and rightful administrators of the country and the voice of the people represented in the PM by the cabinet. It is the duty of every citizen to rally and unite behind the people's choice.
The only 'ruling parties' or 'opposition parties' are the legislatives, who have no power of authority to administer saved for the hearing of citizen's views, debate of laws and policies, to be approve by the cabinet.
B.) In the event of civil crisis, MAKE DAMN SURE IT WILL NOT EXISTS. So choose your MPs wisely. Such a situation MUST NEVER, NEVER occur. The pitting of brother against brother, families against families, citizens against citizens, must not happen no matter how divided we become on issues. We still have the freedom to vote, to determine a mandate.
But some stubborn ones will ask, what if. The truth is that it had never happened before, no armed soldiers were used to roam the streets saved for the manhunt for a dangerous terrorist, for the past 44 years, despite what many claimed had been authoritarian rule. But what if it happen one day? ( READ POINT B. AGAIN)
The day, IF it happens, will be that the elected MP and his grassroot organisation had failed in his duty either to listen to his constituents or explain a govt policy effectively to the people, which is no excuse for our county is only small and comms is never an issue.
While it may not be possible to please EVERYONE, at least the majority will accept policies if effectively put across reasonably and logically with compassion if needed. It will only be a minority who may not be pleased, but then it is only a minority, and that's the job of the police (home affairs) to maintain order, not soldiers whose sole duty is defence.
Therefore, our oath is to the military defence our country, which is made up of our People, everyone and everything IN Singapore.
Well said and one of the few people in this thread with a normal IQ.
