• What are the positions of the different political parties?

During PAP(people"s action party) 2006 the votes were 66 percent.But now in 2011 the total votes were 60 percent,this shows a 6 percent(40000) decrease in percentage of singaporeans voting for PAP.This also showed that more and more singaporeans supported the opposition party!What exactly is happening to the voters? I will tell you later on.

WP(worker"s party)have increased the number of voters since 2006 to 2011.This year 2011 ,they made a history!They won a GRC seat in Aljunied area.The reason for the voters to vote for the opposition party is due to the politics!Let"s go to the main idea of what exactly is happening to this society.

Firstly is cost of living in Singapore .You know last time ,around 2005 one bowl of chicken rice cost $2,but now in 2011 it cost $2.80.An $0.80 difference makes a lot of changes.


Secondly is due to immigration.More and more foreign workers come to singapore to work.Singaporeans cannot do anything if all the job vacancy is being occupied by the foreigners.

Thirdly is due to the housing.Last 10 years a 3 room flat cost $100,000 .now it cost $300,000.Most of the couples find it hard to afford a house.

Fourthly is due to healthcare and ageing.All people will go from young to old.For the older"s ones,they are worried about the cost of medical fee when they age and how to cope withe their financial problems?

Lastly is due to jobs and income.Normally foreign workers come cheaper than singaporeans,resulting in a ceiling on singaporean"s salaries.Can we have a minimum wage so our salaries at a level that allow us to keep up with rising cost.
