Insider's Report

Well, its official folks. The government has gave the greenlight to establish a casino here in Singapore after almost 1 year of deliberation. For the past few weeks, there was really a big hoo-haa amongts local Singaporeans whether or not it is a good idea to have a casino in Singapore. There were debates a plenty regarding moral standards and economical impact of having the casino. But in the end, it was decided yesterday in Parliament to go ahead with the casino project.

Eventhough the decision came after hours of serious comtemplating among the Member of Parliaments (MPs) and the politicians, thankfully I knew an insider who exactly what happened and how they came to the decision. Below are the excerps from what transpired yesterday afternoon between 2 MPs behind closed doors.....

MP1: Eh, the ka-shi-no issue an cua ho?
MP2: Absolutely not! Having the casino will only result in social and moral decay!
MP1: Aiya....mai thu liau.....we got no more time....people want this issue solve fast fast.
MP2: Buts its perposterous! Just think of the social impact. Gambling has always been a bane to society and we should not encourage our younger generation to indulge in gambling! (tucks his wallet into his pants with a 4D ticket sticking out)
MP1: Don't kau peh, kau bu la....You keep on think of the negative nia....You got think of the positive meh?
MP2: Positives? Rubbish! No such thing as anything good coming out of having a casino.
MP1: Hai.....kambling cannot control wan...You see, every day also people buy 4D. And how many kena? We government earn also wat....
MP2: But...but...
MP1: Then you think la... if many many people go ka-shi-no, Singapore can get money and also attract tourist right???? Hai...kong ka liau....we win wan. Some more, now Singapore difficult find job. This ka-shi-no can train people pun pai....maths can also improve wan....You got play chor ti or not? I count until siau you know? But in the end, we gerenti Huat ah!
MP2: True....it does have its benefits, besides its idiosyncrasies.
MP1: Hamik eng si?!??!!?!? Walau! Your mouth si beh suay! But heck care la....how?
MP2: Erm.....well, in a way....what I'm trying to say....ummm...ok la, ok la....On! On!
MP1: Steaaaaaaady!!!!


So, there you have it. An insider's report and the rest is history. Personally, I have no idea what may come about having this casino in Singapore, only time will tell. Still, its good to see the government taking a risk once in a while and invest in pop culture. The whole idea of high society with perfect morals and values are getting kinda stale. Everyday, you can see in the papers sensationalizing drama, classical music, arts and culture; which is fine by me. But seriously, after a while? What the?!?!! Enough is enough!!! How much of this I have to take!?!?! Bring on the money!!!!!! Bring on the sleaze!!! Bring on the fun stuff!!!!!! Wahahhaa....bring on the best things in life.....its fun doing bad stuff.

Anyway, I better get going. Its getting late and I wanna go clean up abit before my god-sis arrives tomorrow. =)

Oh ya? I didn't mention? My god-sis and her friends are visitng me from KL tomorrow!
