Gatepost Discussions

I have just had an hour long chat with housemates in front of Mugs, discussing the future of Singapore and what the gahmen can possibly do to help. Ignoring the fact that nothing significant can happen until the Old Man (an utter bastard, but without doubt OUR bastard) kicks off, I can only say that I have never been happier.

I've had these political discussions before in New York, with Singaporeans about Singapore, with Americans about America and with Singaporeans about America. I had never expected to be so glad to be able to talk in my country with my fellow citizens so plainly about the future of our country. The immediacy is excellent.
