We Haz Freedom K?

My friend's boss at AP was interviewing Singapore Minister of Defense, or something like that, on Singapore's political system. He went on about how Singaporeans have more freedom now. Initially, the government simply gives people HDB flats (Singapore's government sponsored housing). Now they give people the freedom to choose from different coloured HDB flats. Who says Singapore is totally totalitarian and lacks freedom? You can pick if you'd like to live in a green HDB flat, or a blue one, or a red one.......sweet!!!!
