I was one of those fooled. Searched and research into David Widjaja case and you will find out how dangerous it is to live in the city. An innocent foreign student a non activist could be killed and everything and everyone in Singapore would conspire against his case.

Righting a Wrong

Prof Lee Wei Ling’s article on ‘Righting a wrong comes from the heart’ (The Sunday Times 18th Jan 2009) seems to talk about me. haha….

If I know there is something wrong, I will try to set it right whether or not it is my business to do so. At my age, I have not lost the fire in my belly. But such a busybody trait has got me into a lot of trouble because I’m not Prof Lee Wei Ling, who is the daughter of MM Lee Kuan Yew and sister of PM Lee Hsien Loong.

I was threatened to shut up. My son’s life will be in danger if I continue to set things right. My son has a hard time in schools.

I have many personal experiences with MOE, which is very guilty of not setting things right. They allow teachers and principals to abuse students. Their educators cheat, lie but such cases were covered up. MOE condone wrong doings of their staff. One of their PR officers even threatened an editor against pursuing a case I was complaining.

I have an extremely hard time with the Immigration and Checkpoint Authority (ICA) recently. I find the officers very KL, making things more difficult for me after I complained to Minister Wong Kan Seng. Many people said I deserve it. For setting things right?

Even in a government hospital, my son and I were not spared. I wrote to Minister of Health Khaw Boon Wan but sigh…… Luckily, I would be meeting Prof Lee Wei Ling. She has agreed to see my son.

It’s our duty to right a wrong when we see one……. and you don’t have to be MM Lee’s daughter to do that.

Another one who spoke up. A Singapore police officer making a death threat to its citizen:

Gary: He said to me at the lift lobby 90% of the exact words – ”Mr Tan,if you walk out of here tomorrow,you might get killed.You might meet with a mysterious accident,you might disappear and nobody will know what happened to you! Mr Tan, some things and people in this country you cannot offend! Some people are above all things! You better make sure you know this! Mr Tan,we can arrange for things to happen to you.You understand or not!”

The guy was threatened to be locked in mental institution and now undergoing trial on shoptheft probably with false witnesses too.

“”Three women were brought to the Singapore General Hospital, each in the same condition and needing a blood transfusion. The first, a Southeast Asian was given the transfusion but died a few hours later. The second, a South Asian was also given a transfusion but died a few days later. The third, an East Asian, was given a transfusion and survived. That is the X factor in development.”

More tyranny exposed at http://leewatch.info/quotes/

As for the middle class Singaporeans, taxi drivers n such, $$ will never be enough, no matter which society that adopts capitalism. Look at the UK, governement welfare schemes proved to be unsustainable even with the rich wealth inherited through to the great Victorian age, and needed the iron lady Margret Thatcher to save them. Wait… but while saving them she created a huge gap in the economy of the UK. I see Rolls Royce zooming pass the streets of London, with beggars (British citizens) staring blankly as it goes by. Gladly we dont have that in Singapore and why? Thanks to Lee and his old guards.

Well, not awarding him an honory award is creditable if the Dons and directors of ANU feel that he doesnt deserve it, Margret and Tony Blair were refused honory from their own University Oxford. Oh wait… Cambridge did not reject LEe…. ANU is better in human rights research and Asian political science than Cambridge???

all i have to say is, singaporeans are not as laid back as the aussies. nothing bad about that but i certainly do not like to be called laid back aka lazy, slow poke etc etc for nothing. haha!

It is obvious that the people in SG are quite backward even though their country had paced in development – ppl in their are total aliens to the human race, lack of humor, do not know how to continue a decent communication … more like robots pre-programmed, compared to the japanese, which i found more social.

It is noticeable that the middle class are not very much satisfied, the cab drivers often are dissatisfied and talk about unable to cope up with the high prices and taxes.

Overall i think SG is a good place to do business, no the best place to have fun.

please allow me to explain why LKY was a “tyrant”. During his regime, Singapore was NOT A SAFE COUNTRY.. there are riots (malaysia + singapore), strike, communism threat, british control, starvation, economy unrest, etc etc… in order for this country to survive, the only way out is to have a well organized government… there is NO democracy at that point of time… do you want a communism country or a strict ruler who can lead well? and furthermore, he does not really rule singapore as prime minister for so many years, he should not be blamed primarily for the current affairs of singapore..

protests in singapore is against the law.

also, we voted for PAP not because that he forces us, but there is no competitive opposition TEAM. pardon me for saying… because PAP had be active for so long and maintained a good record.. some opposition members are good too and PAP does not object to that.

Chee, has far as i can remember, uses oppose PAP tactics only, I don’t even know what are his plans for future singapore at all..
