Singapore's role models, a bunch of crooks.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

You would expect any government to see to it, their leaders are seen to be men of integrity. That is provided of course that it needs the support of it's people.

Not so in Lee Kuan Yew's Singapore. They don't need your support. What they need is your obedience, your fear of them, which they ensure by force; just as you will expect from a military government during wartime; and that my friend is present day Singapore.

Take Lee Kuan Yew, the Singapore strongman. Does he care what people think when he pays himself $3.7 million a year and a lot more secretly? And what sort of a role model is that for a leader of a country, who is seen no better than a thief!

Take his controlling every newspaper in the country. What is he, a leader of a democratic country or is he a fascist? Does he care what people think? Not one bit!

Take his handpicked Tamil Indian Minister for Law K Shanmugam. Does he care that people think of him no better than a errand boy for the predominantly Chinese government in Singapore; being selected as a show piece for the Indian Singapore community as an example of Lee Kuan Yew's racial fair mindedness! Recall Tariq Aziz, the former foreign minister, a Catholic in Sadam Hussein's government of Iraq, a member of a community whom he would have normally eliminated in ethnic cleansing.

Take his judge Belinda Ang Saw Ean who is shamelessly willing to send Dr. Chee Soon Juan to prison and abuse the law to bankrupt him with monstrous damage awards merely because he criticized her master Lee Kuan Yew and his son. Is this the sort of role model for a judge in Singapore, a woman without any scruples or shame whatsoever, who would be prepared shamelessly to "prostitute her position as a judge for personal gain".

Take the journalists who work for the state controlled press in Singapore who daily write propaganda in praise of Lee Kuan Yew and his government while denying any right of reply or publicity for the ideas of those in opposition? Are these the sort of journalists that are the role models for men and women aspiring to careers in journalism?

Take the average Singaporean father and mother. What sort of people are they? Simply cowards. Their standard advice to their children is better to live like a coward in fear of Lee Kuan Yew, than to stand your ground on principle, integrity and conviction. These children quietly go about their lives in Singapore totally indifferent to whatever goes round about them that affect their lives. What sort of cowards are these. The children of these Singapore parents?

They are a bunch of cowardly yes men and women without any integrity or courage whatsoever. A bunch of bums. The lot of them.

But there are a few and a growing number who are different. Lee Kuan Yew and his fascist government misunderstand Singaporeans. They are all not as helpless or ignorant as you think. Those who have the knowledge of this abuse and the education to go with it, are simply withdrawing cooperation to such a government.

They are resigning from government positions. More and more of the young refuse to enter government service for the shame and lack of any integrity that goes with the job.

With my writing and that of others, a growing number of Singaporeans are beginning to realize that doing nothing is not an option but a recipe for disaster. And they are beginning to realize that it is shameful to live in bondage and what is more, there is no need to live like that.

Singaporeans are also keenly aware that the 86 year old bully Lee Kuan Yew has to weaken and die, if not today, at least tomorrow. So they are beginning to realize that something has to be done, and they are beginning to do it.

I have received information that young students have made copies of these blog postings and have begun to distribute them at street corners such as Orchard Road. Many have been actively and continually distributing information about this blog Singapore Dissident to their friends and thereby increasing the readership. All these are good signs which can only mean a change for the better.

So don't let up, expose these crooks, because that is exactly what they are.
