Attention Singaporeans! Time To Wake Up!

So, what do you expect? The people to rise in armed insurrection like how the Communists in China kick Chiang Kai Shek to Taiwan except the current ruling party has no way to run.

Sorry, been busy with my work so finally got time to come back to this thread, thanks for all the response whether positive or negative. Personally, I posted the article for you guys to read so that you can analyse the writer's thoughts yourself. By no means am I trying to force anybody to believe in every word the writer said. I believe if something is a fact, then it doesn't matter who the writer is, well known credible people, even genius scientist such as einstein have been known to make mistakes, some well known korean scientist even mislead others delibrately or accidently into believing something, and needless for me to remind you guys, that the media in Singapore have been made to mislead at times the citizens mind here in Singapore, so please use your brain...

For those who keep asking for sources, wah lan eh, I cannot remember where I got it from so what did I do? I just copy the front few words of my own post and pasted into Google and search, viola, the first result reveals the source is from http://www.geocities.com/hkhemlock/mus-sin.html

Next time, rather than arguing about the source of this article, why not do abit of homework and GOOGLE it yourself!!!

Thanks, appreciate your effort in posting the article here for all to read. It is impossible for paper to cover fire, isn't it? Please go on to educate people that the local media is being made use of to brainwash the minds of the locals. My Myanmar friend was happy to come that I am the only one he met that doesn't believe all about the local media. He is disappointed that the locals he meet are all so dumb to believe in the local media.

He is disappointed that the locals he meet are all so dumb to believe in the local media.

Not dumb, but mis-informed and ill-formed and bombarded with propaganda on a daily basis on all fronts.

Singapore used to have a lively political intelligentsia in the 1930s-1960s.

All that is gone now after almost 50 years of one party PAP rule.

Catherine Lim criticises this in her article:

We must rebuild the intellectual life in Singapore to save Singapore.

This is why I advocate creation of a lively and vibrant media industry to stimulate the population and not a controlled media to act as a mouthpiece for state propaganda.

The above is only possible when PAP and dictator lee are gone.

The only way save the intellectual life in Singapore is to limit the powers of the government to only what it is allowed to do while people are free to do as they like, not the other way round which is the current situation, (hence there is the everpresent 'fear' her letter is refering to) and to limit(if not remove) the government's hold on the media.

Writing the letter to PM won't help much as she is still thinking within the premise that the Government should 'consider what can be done to remove this fear' and then do it. When it is precisely the overpowered government that the people are afraid of. By writing the letter on the premise of entrusting the government such powers we will still be at square one. Unless the letter will cause the government to be enlightened and limit its own powers which is highly unlikely Laughing

That's why i advocate minimal powers of the govt. and the freedom of people to assemble in society as they wish so long as they don't infringe on the rights of other people

Which is probably part of the reason we have such an imbalance of power btwn opposition and ruling party Rolling Eyes
