Ten reasons why you must resist the Filipino celebration of their independence day at Orchard Road:- 1. Its our country, our land and though we allow foreigners to celebrate their national day here, it must be done discreetly and preferably indoor. The real show must always belongs to Singapore only. 2. There are at least 10,000 people reported to be dropping by the event so theres the issue of security and crowd control. Other tourists will also be inconvenienced by the massive crowd. By the way, whos paying the tab for the event? 3. If we allow Filipinos to celebrate their national day at Orchard Road, who will be next? The Indians, PRC Chinese or Malaysians? Will Orchard Road be turned into a play ground for foreigners only to wave their own national flags? 4. Its a open secret that our government is courting new citizen votes and the PAP will go all out to appease the foreigner demand to stay in power even at the expense of angering its own people. 5. The government has sold us out by bringing in foreigners to replace us at the job front and new homes are specially build to house them. We cant allow them any ground any more else we become second-class citizens in our own country. 6. Many Singaporeans have complained that they are reporting to foreign supervisors now and we are routinely being replaced by their own kind at the work place. We need to fight back before we scrap the bottom of the barrel. 7. Filipinos tend to group among themselves and there is hardly any integration with us locals. There are already close to 300,000 Filipinos among us and thats enough! 8. The Prime Minister has called us names when we objected to the national day celebration at Orchard and this has as a result created great animosity between the locals and the Filipino community. We apologise for this uniquely- Singaporean phenomenon whereby politicians will criticise its own people routinely so that foreigners can have easy access to jobs, homes and education. 9. We dont hate our Filipino workers but when our sovereignty and national rights are being compromised, we will fight back aggressively with our lives for this is our country. 10. Singaporeans worldwide celebrate Singapore Day in the host countries and not our national day and its mainly confined to parks and not downtown shopping tourist belt. Please dont be fooled by our Prime Minister.
