Talking points..


Now tat i hve put yesterdays ill fated event behind me,let me start of my new post with some political issues.. As u guys noe,last sunday we had the national day rally.. Some issues were brought up by our PM or should i say changes,of course the hot topic would be the Cpf withdrawal age... Yes,one of the new changes brought up by our PM is the increase in the Cpf withdrawal age from 62 to 65 now .. Why is it raised ? Apparently the government thinks that Singaporeans are living longer den they used to which is absolutely absurd if ur ask me.. New diseases hve reared its ugly head n we still are hearing abt the more common ones like dengue n hmf virus,pple are mysteriously dying in their sleep.. We are not talking abt old folks here but youngsters who hve no medical history but they just end their life while sleeping.. 16 year old boy knocked down while crossing the zebra crossing .. This incident by the way happened few days after the national day rally.. Stupid fucking drunk drivers causing mayhem on da road ,killing innocent road users .. Maybe the so called government should open up the Obituary page every single day n count the number of pple who lose their lives .. As it stands now we will be receiving a certain amount of OUR cpf money every month from the age of 65. Why dunt we hve the right over our own hard earned cpf money,instead we have to depend on the government to give us an amount they seem fit to give.. Maybe i can understand the point when they claim dat if we are given full access to the cash, the faster the money will be spent.. On the contrary,its our money anyway so we hve the right to do wad we want with it... Lets say im 65 now n the government is giving me cash every mth from my cpf,wad if something happens to me the following year.. I worked so hard to accumulate all this money n if im just gone like dat,where will my cpf money go to ? Will they claim it as death tax n take dat away as well .. On the outside promises made can seem assuring but if we think carefully n evaluate the options its not all tat it seems like ..

Vasantham Star 07 had 10 contestants prior to tonites show n after the show it got down to 9.. I had this feeling in my gut when i saw that sms voting counts for 50 percent of the entire judgement n tat would be half of the total judgement n of course the other half coming from the judges.. Ok kudos to the ten contestants todae who performed n once again im not a sexist but i felt that the girls didnt perform as well as they can for wad i feel nervousness could be da factor... The judges once again gave a very good account of themselves but i feel they have been let down by the sms voting which i repeat is 50 percent but when i saw the results n the way it was judged upon it felt like the sms voting held a bigger bearing on the outcome den the judges call.. It was said to be tat since he or she performed better in the sms voting he or she will be ranked higher.. Wheres the 50/50 thingy dat was suppose to be ? Lol Devarajan in 5th spot when he had the second highest score among the judges n Vijayan who was the best singer on the night clearly but wasnt top according to the sms voting.. Ear dead audience again or popularity factor cos apparently being popular n hving alot of friends seems to the key in this sms voting bullshit rather den true talent n ability.. Haaa..The true value of such talent shows will onli be established when things like the dubious sms voting gets axed... Cheerios.. I have made my say n its up to u to respond.. Nitey nitez..
