[[ The video starts off with a boy asking what he would be when he grows up, to which his father responds: “In Singapore, you can be anything you want to be.”
But the boy later asks: “What if my dreams don’t come true?”
“As long as you don’t give up and take care of your dreams, Singapore will take care of you,” his father replies.
Mr Shanmugam added: “I'm certain he will achieve his dreams if he gives his best in Singapore.” ]]
With respect, I disagree that "Singapore will take care of you"
I believe that Singapore is reluctant to implement and provide financial assistance to the poor senior citizens, mentally and physically challenged, and those whose health made them dependent on medical and surgical interventions as well as reliance on medical prescription drugs.
At the risk of being considered unreasonable, I believe that in Singapore, an individual may not realize his dream to be an astronaut, test pilot, and someone who wishes to speak his mind.
