This piece must surely take the
cake at being the most skewed opinion laced with shameless
effrontery.
Is it accurate in comparing Chee's sitting alone for 5 days with
the memory of a jam packed Hougang field supporting the WP during
the 2006 election ?
Do you seriously believe that the lack of Singaporean presence with
Chee at the Istana is due to a lack of support for his politics; or
is the lack of presence due to Singaporeans' fear of being tangled
up by the MIW unethical methods in abusing the legal process to
persecute any Singaporean so as to prevent legitimate expressions
of grievances against the MIW Government ?
Is it not a common selfish feature of most Singaporean to play it
safe, by allowing someone - who dare to speak openly and who is
more articulate - to do so, rather then expose themselves to
similar persecution.
After more then four decades of being subjected to the ruthless
political methods employed by the POWER OF ONE in dealing with his
detractors - whether from the legitimate bodies such as the social
activist groups, political parties, trade unions, or even the
religious organisations - Singaporeans have become more circumspect
with open display of support to any political cause, even if it is
for their own benefit.
Do you seriously beleive that Chee has no supporters
?
Sylvia did very well in saying we do not need outside interference
- which is also the truth. Which country on earth needs outside
interference, besides despotic regimes like Burma and African
countries?
Whose truth are you referring to
?
The propagated truth as espoused by the MIW that you picked up from
the controlled media that you are exposed to as a daily diet
?
Why will you believe that Singapore do not need outside
intereference, but will advocate that Singapore and the
International Community can interfere in Myanmar and other
countries in Africa or anywhere else in this Globe
?
More importantly, notice that it is the people of Burma, the people
of Darfur, the people of despotic regimes which called for UN and
US help.
Then ask ourselves: Are Singaporeans calling or even think we need
UN or US help?
Are Singaporeans given any
opportunity to express themselves in the same manner as the people
of Burma or Darfur ?
Obviously you believe that the citizens of North Korean are a happy
lot, since everyone is seen worshipping their leaders as their own
Fathers, with tens of thousands synchronised in unison dance and
waving of flowers whenever the Kim appear in
public.
Get real, SDP!
That is the problem with Dr Chee and the SDP. Always shooting the
wrong target. Go out there and ask Singaporeans: "Do you support
foreign intervention or interference in our domestic
affairs?"
What do you think the result will be?
Get real, SDP ?
What do you think the result will be if the North Koreans should
also be asked if they support foreign intervention or interference
in our domestic affairs ?
Why did you conveniently leave out this very happy lot of people
that are kept well fed from so much food aid from the World
Communities ?

Sylvia did the right thing with just one sentence:
1. She understood what majority of Singaporeans don't want.
2. She distanced herself and the WP from the extremism of the
SDP.
3. She articulated a sensible position.
Well done, Sylvia!
With one sentence, Sylvia had
aligned herself with the MIW Government and clones in justifying
the use of the Law to terrorise and subjugate Singaporeans from
excercising their political rights in public.
Sylvia's statement has given legitimacy for the MIW to continue to
bastardise the Singapore Constitution and abuse the Constitutional
Rights of Singaporeans through continuous amendments that change
the true spirit as intended in the original text of the
Constitution.
Did Sylvia conduct any independent poll to obtain the political
feelings of Singaporeans - who are politically concious, or did she
simply expressed her own personal feelings on this subject ?
Did she seek the opinions of those Singaporeans who were political
prisoners for more as long as 30 years, simply based on some very
personal opinion of the POWER OF ONE - without any evidence
produced, and continuously tormented by psychological pressures to
submit themselves to admitting the false accusations, in exchange
for release without any further political rights ?
Is Sylvia's position sensible when she will tow the MIW line of
allowing Singapore to interfere in the internal politics of
Myanmar, while refusing others to interfere in our own ?
Even more mature and bigger countries - such as China, Russia and
India - have advocated non-interference in Myanmar's internal
dissension, yet the puny MIW Government of Singapore will have the
shameless chutzpah to believe that they have the moral authority to
interfere in Myanmar's internal politics.
