Our gahmen seems to be getting more and more paranoid as seen
from its more and more repressive laws. This is one of the results
from being in power for too long; it just too afraid to lose the
control.
The PAP regime is quite obsessed with power and control.
In our ASEAN region, they are one of the more repressive
regimes.
They want to control every aspect of Singapore life.
I think one reason could be due to the minority status of the
old dog.
He is of minority hakka/baba group, but Singapore majority is
hokkien group.
He feels insecure ruling this hokkien group as they won't truely
follow him, an anglo dog.
The only way to control this group in the dog's mind is through
repression and mass propaganda.
That is probably one of the factors why the dog destroyed the
chinese schools and imposed ang moh on hokkiens.
He wants to weaken the dialect groups as he feels that they are
a threat to him.
Turn all the hokkiens to become anglo dogs like him, weaken
their culture, so that they will more easily follow him.
A bit like the policy of Russification:
Russification was the
name given to a policy of Alexander
III. Russification was designed to take the sting out of those
who wanted to reform Russia
and to bind all the Russian people around one person – the
tsar.
Russification was
first formulated in 1770 by Uvarov. He defined three areas of
Russification – autocracy, orthodoxy and ‘Russian-ness’.
Of the three,
Russian-ness was the most important. Before Alexander III,
Russification meant that all the tsar’s subjects, whatever their
nationality, should be accepted by the tsar as being ethnic groups
in their own right provided that they acknowledged their allegiance
to the Russian state, which included the government and the
church.
Under Alexander III,
Russification took a new turn. He believed that all cultures
and nationalities within the empire should be wiped out (though not
physically) and that all the people within the empire should become
‘Great Russians’. Russification had no time for small ethnic groups
that were more concerned about their culture at the expense of
Russia’s as a whole. To be loyal to Russia and therefore the tsar,
you had to be a Russian first rather than, for example, a Kazak or
Cossack.

Turn all the hokkiens, teochews, hainan, cantonese etc,
westernise them, make them study ang moh in school, destroy their
dialect culture, turn them into anglo dogs.
All cultural morale become weak, so easy to control,
won't rebel, go follow anglo dog regime.
One flaw in this plan is that by weakening and
destroying local culture, the local identity becomes very weak, no
roots, so the migration rate will increase.
If so, it would appear that the dog's way of solving
this problem is to import more foreigners which leads to more
destruction of local culture, so the cycle continues.
