All my a...Dear Mr. Good,<BR/><BR/>Thank you for your comment. All my articles provide concrete ways to challenge the Lee Administration. One of them, for instance, is to protest.<BR/><BR/>As for my returning permanently to Singapore, this is not possible. I am no longer a citizen of Singapore. I am a US Citizen. However that does not make me any less of a Singaporean. I was born in Signapore and spent nearly all my life there including National Service. I care about the fate of Singapore, just as any other Singaporean should do.<BR/><BR/>I think we all can contribute to working towards change in Singapore, including me from the US. The contribution of each and every one counts, even if it was in a small way, like writing my blog.<BR/><BR/>In any case, your contribution is appreciated.<BR/><BR/>As for Francis Seow, I do not know but I get the feeling that he does not return because he is not looking forward to having the ISD facility in Singapore as his residential address.In any case, he is doing a great job with his books on Singapore politics.<BR/><BR/>Tan Wah Piow also I trust is not looking forward to having Cell Block No.3, Changi Road as his permanent address.<BR/><BR/>You can help the cause of Singapore by dissemenating my materials as widely as possible.<BR/><BR/>Down with dictators. Viva La France. Sorry I got carried away. Viva La Singapore. Damn the dictators.<BR/><BR/>Gopalan Nair<BR/>Fremont, CAGopalan Nairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15399145588654603667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081742307252789733.post-67219558067685328622007-05-14T00:47:00.000-07:002007-05-14T00:47:00.000-07:00Dear Mr. Nair, Thank you for your explanation to...Dear Mr. Nair,<BR/> Thank you for your explanation to my earlier question about 2 months ago. I have been traveling but reading your blog somewhat regularly.<BR/><BR/> Your prose rings with degree of familiarity with my sentiments towards the government but is sometimes hollow with concrete ways in achieving these objectives.<BR/><BR/> Why don't you come back to Singapore and form a united front against the oppression that takes place every day. Why don't you get Francis Seow and others to return as well?<BR/><BR/> The article by Michael Nair is another case of a generation lost to the tyrant. <BR/><BR/> Don't make your blog a listing of lost opportunities.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
