1. Plastic bag charges unpopular but necessary
This sentiment was reported in CNA uttered by a NGO on fighting waste in Sgp.
Given that plastic is one of the biggest waste created, logical no-nonsense Sgp would hv done away with this many years ago, if the government is decisive n determine.
Alas, the fact that many nations had done this while Sgp is still hesitating n meandering reveals that there is no political will to do this simple but unpopular measure.
Why is that so I hv no idea. Maybe the government feels it is not worth their troubles? Maybe they r concerned unenlightened voters may vote against them in the next GE?
To me, while it may be unpopular, it is the right thing to do. Otherwise we will continue to c plastic waste for years to come!
Of course, other measures must be implemented at the same time. e.g. bring your own shopping bag, shopping "cart", etc.
2. Chinese papers mocking the US Presidential election given the waves of scandal accompanying mainly chief clown Trump n to a lesser extent, cold-maiden Hillary.
Can u imagine a communist country's newspaper mocking the world most advanced democracy?
Does anyone need any more convincing that it can only be down from here whoever become President?
Will the vaunted private sector comes to its rescue given that the public folks obviously r corrupt in their own ways n totally untrustworthy?!
Let's wait n watch the tragedy unfolds. It is any time now with 8th November barely 4 weeks to go!!
God save America. Not that I m a religious person.
