actually, singapore trade unions can play quite dirty one. I remember at the last place my mom worked before she became a housewife, the management got into some disagreements with a bayi who happened to be some ranking union official.
the company got hit again and again with one sort of audit after another, when before that, they had zero trouble ......
but what does NTUC do anyway? in terms of collective bargaining, NTUC only have limited rights.. and the effing secret ballot process under the claims of democracy.. everyone knows thats the people whom you're gonna vote for is all planted by the pap.

singaporean chinese are no longer the biggest race in sg..... all singaporeans are now minorities here i tell u -_-"

Well I think the 66% from the last election should have worked but it didn’t.
And I certainly do not want to see something stupid like what is happening in Malaysia now
I think there will be more vote spoilers than people voting for any party

Don't go against. Choose your battles carefully.
Its like..if you know your prof is a homophobic then never submit an essay advocating gay rights

unlikely .......
put it this way dude, these sort of subjects, they are all bullshitters, there are no right or wrong. If you're a historian or political scientist of any other flavour of bullshitter AFTER graduation, you make a name in academia by going against the flow. Write something outrageous and sensational and you'll sell a lot more books and get a lot more speaking engagements.
But not while you're a student. When I had to clear my arts elective, my poli science prof was a typical US and Israeli hating pantsy canadian liberal, those type who also smoke weed and believe in gay marriages, so I just went along his line in all my essays, I got an A, so so what if I think he's been spouting bullshit ?
