Compare the Singapore airport to the USA dumps: LAX, Laguardia, Dulles.
Remember when they caught an American boy spraying graffiti on buildings, I believe? The uproar over his sentence of being “caned”? An embarassment to all of the US, when people jumped onto this punks side and claimed it was cruel. Guess what? No graffiti, and a safe and ordered society. I bet he is still alive, and no worse for the wear....... stay tuned......
I guess once a punk, always a punk. He probably was treated like a hero once he was back to his padded and protected life.
Singapore should be denounced as the authoritarian totalitarian state that it is. But there was a thread a few months back where FReepers generally agreed it would be better to live in Singapore than New York City.
“Singapore’s prime minister emeritus stares at ‘woke’ concepts in America, utterly stupefied at its idiocy”
Him and a couple hundred million Americans.
Singapore's prime minister emeritus stares at 'woke' concepts in America, utterly stupefied at its idiocy
Anyone with a brain is utterly stupefied at its idiocy.
I think I am ready to have the trains run on time.
The Singaporean Way
Can you imagine what this country would be like the Singaporean Way??
Join the club buddy, most of us are stunned by the idiocy as well.
My ship visited a couple of times in the late 70s/early 80s. I enjoyed the heck out of it. One night a cab driver would not take us back to the ship I think because he didn’t want to have to come back empty. We argued, and I got out and slammed the door. The driver jumped out and said he was going to get the police. I realized where I was and all the fight left me in one second because I knew what could happen. I apologized about 500 times. The police do not play in Singapore. He did not pursue it.
