Tang's case was definitely filthy.
When its filthy, I say its filthy, I'm honest and balanced.
Do we want to see our leaders resorting to this kind of underhand
in election - making unfair accusations against political opponents
and then sue them to bankruptcy with mareva injunction for the
slightest innuendos made in the heat of election.
Not all the law suits were bad. I agree with most of them,
especially Chee.
I think politicians shld be responsible with what they say.
In the same way, can we believe our leaders when they say that we
the people should pay leaders the highest pays equated to
boss-category of highest income earners in the industries to
prevent or avoid temptations to corruption.
I fully agree with this policy. It will help prevent corruption.
Just look at what is happening in the US.
Our own local talents were kept out of contributions to the
political maturity and the country's economic and social progress
and vibrancy. That is why we have so many capable people migrating
away to other countries to seek better prospect for use of their
talents..
What rubbish!
If we have this kind of leaders, how can we the people trust them
with all our future and our children's future. Think again about
your previous views which tantamount to : "our leaders are always
right and can do no wrong"
No govt is perfect, but ours come close.
