Many including the Govt and their law society know this fact. As Mr Nair did not renew his practicing certificate year after year, the LS could easily under their constitution remove his name quietly without much fanfare. I suspect they had already done this years ago.<br /><br /><br />They must have thought that Mr Nair had learnt his lesson after his incarceration for 6 months and would be compliant and remorseful after making a promise in court not to post uncomplimentary remarks about Singapore and it's <br />judiciary on his return to USA. And that would be the end of the matter .<br /><br />But Mr Nair thought otherwise and resumed his vitriolic attack on his blog on his jjreturn to safe grounds.<br />Obviously his subsequent must have hurt them significantly <br />Seething with fury they came up with only this pathetic recourse of striking him off the rolls and making a big hoo-thah of it complete with a big colored pic of their feared adversary in the ST today.<br /><br />Maybe they thought this supposedly bad publicity for GN could somehow influence the California Bar to think askance of him and lower his professional standing in the eyes of his contemporaries?<br /><br />As they did to so many others before, there is no doubt now that LKY and his ilk continue to be petty, vindictive and vicious to those who oppose them politically.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081742307252789733.post-80777822357920619722011-07-25T21:14:02.980-07:002011-07-25T21:14:02.980-07:00Tsk, tsk, tsk, after the jailing of author Alan Sh...Tsk, tsk, tsk, after the jailing of author Alan Shadrake for writing a critical book, now the disbarring of a lawyer for speaking out critically. Is this how a nation gets From Third World to First? Read no evil, speak no evil, and all Singaporeans must pretend to see no evil. This is part of the reason why the UK Parliamentary hearing into phone hacking howled with mocking laughter when Rupert Murdoch proclaimed Singapore to be a corruption-free paradise. Well done Lee Kuan Yew, tin pot tyrant of the nation, for demonstrating the impeccable quality of Singapore's rule of law. What now of your precious reputation for probity?<br /><br />If the S'pore Law Society has the courage of its convictions then it behoves them to swiftly report the action they have taken against the recalcitrant convicted renegade lawyer, Gopalan Nair, to the legal authorities of England and California because he remains a member in good standing in those jurisdictions and is <b><i>still</i></b> free to practice the law there. That cannot be right, surely? That he has been struck off the Rolls for unethical conduct is a serious matter and the public must be protected from such as the wicked Nair. We look forward eagerly to seeing the President of the S'pore Law Society and perhaps S'pore's Solicitor General standing up before the hearing to demand that Nair's law license and/or admission to practice be revoked worldwide.<br /><br />Now hands up all those who think the Singapore Government's Law Society will be prepared to risk the soundness of their case against Nair being examined in the non-kangaroo courts of the UK and the USA? Will they then feel emboldened to sue <a href="http://www.ibanet.org/Article/Detail.aspx?ArticleUid=568b54b5-f316-4ba3-96e4-410a6c3aaa77" rel="nofollow">IBAHRI</a> for publishing a document also calling into question the independence of the judiciary in Singapore in 2008? <br /><br />Oh! what a tangled web we weave.

From the way things are going in the island, I don't think it is going to take long before these Singaporean kangaroo judges are kicked out or Lee Kuan Yew and his government say by bye for good. <br /><br />Hi Mr Nair.<br />My colleague in Vancouver said that the Chinese nationals and authorities are aware of the situation in Singapore. Some are even laughing at the pathetic system. In China, they have more basic freedom of expression and assembly, and perks! Singapore is too hot for them. She also confirmed that for the Chinese people who seek Singapore Citizenships, many do it for an ulterior motive. Bottomline - their destination is not Singapore. How stupid of LKY. And even so, to not consider that his 'kangaroo courts' and so called minions may have already secured places abroad, it's a matter of time.LilyTannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081742307252789733.post-14360885520793004442011-07-25T14:47:56.584-07:002011-07-25T14:47:56.584-07:00Congratulation on your induction to Hall of Fame o...Congratulation on your induction to Hall of Fame of Patriotic Singaporeans.<br /><br />You must write a letter to Lee Kuan Yew for bestowing the honour.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081742307252789733.post-67087510359048819492011-07-25T06:35:17.533-07:002011-07-25T06:35:17.533-07:00I'm glad you're safe in the USA - which is...I'm glad you're safe in the USA - which is my land too. My eyes have been opened, thanks to your blogs and others who have trodden this path.<br />I am a former Singaporean Indian myself, and am appalled of what I didn't learn in my history lessons. I take that as MY fault - for not seeking the truth.<br />I would have done that same thing myself and not bothered to step inside the Singapore courts and jails for these tyrannical accusations.John Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17415631410202858340noreply@blogger.com
