Michael Aw is arrogant to launch this campaign. His campaign
must be defeated.
Chinese people must stand up to defend their culture against the
likes of Michael Aw.
Chinese culture in Singapore has been under assault for quite a
long time now, chinese schools destroyed, nantah destroyed,
dialects suppressed.
If we continue to act passively, people like Michael Aw will
take us for granted.
Tang found himself not merely participating in politics, but
running for election. His reasons for this decision were very much
based on his concerns over what was happening to the Chinese
community and other minority communities, in Singapore.
Non-English speaking Singaporeans, including Chinese, Malays and
Indians have, he says, been discriminated against unnecessarily
under the PAP policies, particularly, for example the
Chinese-educated, the Buddhists, the Taoists, the Hindus and the
Muslims.
The discrimination, he says, takes various forms:
Nanyang University was restructured; there is no Chinese-language
business paper; there is discrimination in the intake of university
students, in the engagement of university lecturers and school
teachers, in the manning of positions in the army and police
forces, and an absence of representation of the
non-English-speaking Singaporeans in the decision-making process
and in many top government posts. These
are just a few examples.
"It
is obvious that Lee and his family have already amassed vast amount
of wealth. But nobody dared to speak up.
They are very powerful in Singapore.
To maintain their high positions and
wealth, they must have a monopoly of power. LKY has his relatives
and cronies in the army, in the police force and everywhere. They
have their fingers everywhere.

Endangered species?
For goodness sake, Lee Kuan Yew practically filled the
entire cabinet with inbred Peranakans.
For the last few decades in Singapore, the top
positions in civil service, statutory boards, armed forces, GLCs
have all along been going disproportionately to the Peranakans.
That is one reason why Singapore has been run to the
ground.
Lee
Kuan Yew worked with the Japanese Kempeitai and later the British
colonizers to suppress the non-Peranakan
Chinese.
That's
why he has always been wary of non-Peranakan Chinese and could only
entrust power to his own family members and his other Peranakan
cronies.

Michael Aw's campaign must be thoroughly defeated. He cannot be
allowed to succeed.
