This is a very important thing as it concerns all Singaporeans. Please continue reading if you are a Singapore citizen (and not those who migrated here). Bukit Batok grassroots organization is holding a Water Festival event on 18 April to celebrate the cultural festival for foreigners from Thailand, Myanmar, Laos etc
We should always remember that it is important for one to celebrate his cultural festivals. However, doing it at the expense of taxpayers' monies is absurd. Why is our money used to "sponsor" such an event when it can put to better use like helping the needy? If we go to America, we do not expect the government there to celebrate Mooncake Festival or Deepavali for us right?
Since kindergarten, we were taught about water conservation and how precious this liquid is in our country. Singapore is the only only country in the world since independence that needs to buy water from another country so what is the point that the government is trying to make?
Welcoming foreigners and making them settle down in the local society? Wait long long. You will never see a Burmese mingle with a Fillpino, these foreigners are always together in their own groups, creating a din and making a nuisance of themselves in public like they are at their own land. Having this event for them will further make them take for granted that this is their land
This one has really gone too far that I must stand up and broadcast it to everyone. Please spread the message around to create awareness
If you still have a heart and care for the country you own (and the money you and your family pay as taxes), join the Facebook event "GATECRASH WATER FESTIVAL" here to pledge your support
Do not have to be worried. Soon, you will realize that there are many kindred souls fighting it together with you. For the sake of our country (and money), stand up now!
