Hougang declaring independence

Well, some of you may get a shock when you read the title, but don't worry, it's not true...

You see, recently, Kosovo declares its independence from Serbia. And this was widely supported by 18 members of the EU, and the US, while Cyprus, Romania and Spain have done the wise and right thing by explicitly refusing recognition of this illegal move.

Well, think about it. If one day, example Hougang, gets tired of being part of Singapore and decides to declare independence from Singapore, what will be your reaction? Can you imagine trying to visit your grandparents in Hougang and having to pass through customs? Or having a whole new set of rules over there?

And the disgusting part is Uncle Sam supporting that move and putting in humanitarian peacekeepers to keep up that independence even though nobody thinks it is legal? How will you feel? Well it's certainly not a good feeling, even though Singaporeans might just ignore it and let the govt handle the matter.

Oh well, why don't the whole world come together and support say California breaking off from the United States of America next time...
