Riot in Little India: writing on the wall

December 9, 2013

Many people have said that the rioting in Little India was something waiting to happen. Perhaps it had something to do with poor living conditions, exploitive employers and terms of employment as some have speculated. And things came to a head with the death of a fellow countryman in a tragic road accident, and Indians […]

White Paper on Population: we demand a referendum

January 31, 2013

True to its core value of repression, the ruling regime is shafting down our throats a population of 6.9 million by 2030. Why not just say 7 million? Taking us for zombies again? What an insult! On reflection, this is consistent with their well-known trait of arrogance. We do what we think is right, who […]

Grace Fu lecturing Singaporeans over new immigrants

August 14, 2012

I read with disbelief that Grace Fu is lecturing Singaporeans on the need to integrate with foreigners, particularly those the regime minted as new citizens in a desperate attempt to hang on to power in the face of widespread public dissatisfaction. Wasn’t she the one who made the preposterous claim that the social media was […]

National Day Singapore: Singapore no longer really home

August 8, 2012

Few want […]

Enigma: Singapore a city full of paradoxes brags Grace Fu

August 6, 2012

Grace Fu, Minister in the PMO and Second Minister for the Environment and Water Resources, is brilliantly spot on when she described Singapore as a city of paradoxes. A tiny city with one of the largest landfills in the world is truly amazing she gushed. I agree. A land-scarce city that has devoted prime land […]

Why there are fault lines between new citizens and native Singaporeans

August 2, 2012

PM Lee, our quiet PM, quiet in contrast to prime ministers like David Cameron the British Prime Minister, has called on new citizens to integrate in their adopted country. Prompted perhaps by criticism of foreigners who bring with them their social norms and habits and their refusal at integration, PM Lee has a new message […]

Sleeping all along: PM Lee now urges new citizens to be part of Singapore community

July 8, 2012

PM Lee, in whom many Singaporeans have lost confidence in his quiet leadership, has roused himself to urge new citizens to be part of the Singapore community. Shouldn’t this include PRs and other foreigners who have been residing here for years? While the regime has been busy with other things on the national agenda, foreigners […]
