I just got back from a nice vacation with T. And read that S377A is still around. Am I surprised? No. Is it typical? Yes. Do I want to comment on it and on PM Lee's remarks about it? No. I have said all that I can say. Since the PAP doesn't care two hoots about anything else except their re-election possibilities (amongst other things), there will be no change until their "iron rice bowl" is threatened. That is something I believe will never happen (and they know it too). Maybe I'm being too pessimistic but then again, having a sword of Damocles on me is not something that will make me have any feelings towards the PAP or have any positive things to say about Singapore in general, so pessimism it is. And so far (since I've started this blog), the PAP has never failed to re-enforce my pessimism.
As all have been said, the PAP is always pro-money. Any decision they make, if it doesn't involve money, would not be taken seriously and thus they would used the typical replies that "Singapore is not ready for it".
Do I really care? Not anymore. I'm just glad that I can live in a country where I'm not treated any differently in the eyes of the law (regardless conservative/fundamentalist attitudes) as over here, the individual rights is as important as communal rights.
Good bye Singapore. I'll never be part of you every again.
About Me

- Melbourne, Australia
- I'm a gay Singaporean currently working in Melbourne, Australia. I have been happily attached and monogamous (I added that in for the fundamentalist Christians) for the past 4 years (we are having our 5 years anniversary this year). I love Singapore but really hate the PAP. I'm planning to be a permanent quitter (as MP Goh put it) for I'm planning not to return, why be in a country and contribute to it when it hates you so much?
