Come to think of it most of the things said here are based on opinions and not fact...

But hey saying that i also dun know much about what the hell is going on with these two politicians that is also causing waves in perception of the local populace about the others country.

Indeed, it is well known that LKY contributed a whole lot of stuff for S'pore prosperity. He saw stuff that during 1965, people would laugh at and most possibly curse and swear at. And yeah he brought some success...

The same can be said about Tun Mahathir. During his reign, there was the wawasan 2020 thing that i saw. I still don't know what the hell thats about, but its attempting to make malaysia into a developed nation. The gameplan sounds, and he gave what at that time seems abit impossible, a vision for a better future. He is a visionary. Sadly, I've not heard what has been successfully carried out about this.

Both men have an influence, hence any word that comes out of them is bound to churn out its fair share of feelings.

Hence, when i read through some of the postings, i feel that some people mention stuff like war between the nations and etc...(you get the idea). I really don't think that is what everybody wants. Come on, do we need one when we know up north somewhere near A VERY BIG country, some dictator's threatening to blow up nukes? sheesh

Also back to this thing about the marginalising of The Singapore Melayu...

Aku Anak Melayu Singapura...(Translated: I'm a Singapore Malay)
Why is this topic coming up?

Its abit tiring to listen about this all the time...

I mean, so far, as a malay youth growing up in a predominantly chinese nation
I've been given an opportunity to study, have a good education...(currently waiting for Uni entry Mr. Green )
I'm given access to all forms of facilities and services that the government offers...(Medisave, Medishield...Any chinese medisave or medishield? No right.)
I'm allowed to practice my faith without interference or fear
...It'll take too long to type everything

All i am saying is i don't feel that we are marginalised in any way.
SO why all the ruckus?

But saying all that perhaps all you other people can give me examples of how you think we are marginalised. Rather than just shoot that we are, I'll be more than happy to clarify it Very Happy

Enjoy!!!

Addition...

Also, it must be noted that the feeling of marginalisation comes from the people itself maybe not so much the government...

The government can only do so much...

SINGAPOREANS

Are we willing to change ourselves and not use race as a criteria for stuff...(Jobs requiring Mandarin language, Mandarin Ads on English tv...)

No offence to singaporeans, being one myself, but the government knows racial harmony and tolerance is essential for our survival...But are the people in sync?...

Smile For 17 times when the Malaysian politicians made remarks about this there were no sound from Singaporeans. Your clarification here is late but better than never. Thank you very much indeed. Smile Smile

The dictator up north that has actually blown up a nuke is not from a very big country. Fortunately, there are other very big countries up north to keep the power balance. As far as we are concerned, it is good to clarify those unfounded opinions used by politicians for their own agenda, before those opinions are taken as facts, by people also with their own agenda. Twisted Evil

i would like to defer bro....he does bring alot of succes to country.....tho not all of his project are succesful....(Bakun, Perwaja, proton to certain extent...) but other development he brought does bring succes......the economic growth of an average of 10% from 86-97 does speak for its self.....so if u do not herd before...now u herd from me....
