he dares?
of course he DARES with an american citizenship in his pocket...
in truth, he is a COWARD!
Since when has the Singapore
Government given any special treatment to ''an american
citizenship'' - when the maximum that they bent for President
Clinton's appeal to the Michael Fay's case was a reduction of one
stroke of the cane ?
Is He is a 'COWARD' on the basis
of your spelling it in CAPS ?
Try not to trip over
yourself in your haste to plagiarise the parallel MM
LKY's way of foolishly offending the Myanmar Generals by publicly
calling them fools ?
At least he has the credential of
a First World Leader - what have you ?
he is a talent?
brown nose american ass... that's truely a "rare" talent, but in
the WRONG country, he should have stayed in america where there are
plenty of american ass in need of his service!
At least he had the talent
of getting himself into places that you can only dream of,
and spitefully belch out your hollow ostentatious
emotional outbursts.
What have you to offer beyond the
derisive words towards those that attempt to open doors and allow
light to get in ?
political rights for singaporeans?
he aint no singaporean anymore, he ALREADY ABANDON singapore,
his pink IC has already went into the shredder liow! Let me repeat
to your thick skull one more time....HE IS AN AMERICAN CITIZEN!!!
not your buddy singaporean anymore!!!
Was MM LKY a Myanmar Citizens that
qualify him to speak out against the Myanmar Generals'
brilliance in creating a crisis from their mis-management of
Myanmar's internal political affairs ?
How thick is your own skull that
you can forget so quickly what Goh Chok Tong said in his
2001 National Day Rally speech ?
Green harvesting of bright students is a common practice in
America. It shows how hard top companies try to recruit top talent.
We may lose many Singaporeans this way.
Other small countries face similar problems retaining talent.
New Zealand is a good example. Many New Zealanders work overseas,
in Australia, Britain or the US. So many New Zealanders have
emigrated that newspapers write about "the flight of the kiwis",
even though kiwis cannot fly.
Recently, an eminent professor from the London School of
Economics, Professor Robert Wade, spoke at a conference in
Auckland. He said:
"Once a threshold density of skilled people is lost, the rate of
out-migration is likely to accelerate, companies and organisations
will have increasing trouble meeting staffing needs, the quality of
public services will decline, the tax base will erode, and so
on."
Professor Wade also spoke of how overseas Taiwanese and Koreans
are offered considerable incentives and subsidies by their
governments to return home. Even China is now doing this.
How much more critical must
it be for Singapore to attract talent from around the world, and
to retain our own
talent?
Was Goh Chok Tong being
selective in who he is targeting amongst the Singaporean
who have migrated that he would like to re-establish connection via
Singapore Outreach being set up in all the major cities across the
Globe ?
Who are you to claim whether
others are more talented than you ?
and finally...
can you forsee with absolute CERTAINTY (are you GOD almighty??)
if our leaders or their offsprings will stay with us in harsh
times... that you are so quick to make such claim??? is that an act
of maturity??
Is anything CERTAIN in life -
except the certainty of
Tripwire's biggoted emotional immaturity in dealing with
issues concerning the MIW ?
Can you claim with any degree of
certainty that they will stay with us in times of crisis, only to
return when calm is restored ?
As matters stand, billions of our
Reserves are squirreled away with purchases of real estates that
stretched across the globe, in almost evey continent, and all kept
secret and unaccounted even to an Elected President and to
Parliament.
With most of the Ministers
given their Million $$$ crutches to prevent them from being
corrupted, they have been able to afford to send their children
overseas - some of whom have taken up residentship.
Are you being mature in
preferring to trip up on this issue ?
BUT dont worry... you dont need to be GOD to know that......
GOPALAN has already JUMP SHIP ALREADY!
wake up lah dude.....
Do you need to be GOD to find out
that Gopalan is a Singaporean who has given up his Citizenship
?
You must be quite a dud to believe
in your own statement.
It looks like you should be taking
your own advise instead of telling others what needs to
be done.- Dud.
