Yes yes, the Sedition Act and the 3 bloggers. Ok, but let’s take the whole picture into view. Let’s not cloud the issue with our emotions. What else have we got? Let’s open the PAP’s hope chest…
We have police investigations into Martyn See’s film about CSJ. We have police investigations into Jacob George, about his alleged affiliations with Martyn See and Terry and Peter (F’ing hilarious). We have investigations into white elephant posters at Buangkok. We have threats of libel and legal action by teachers against students for comments like “frustrated old spinster”.
WTF is this country coming to? A country of legal suits and police investigations? What is this, Russia circa Stalin? Never have I as a Singaporean ever come across a stage in our 40 years of history where there is such a climate of fear pervaded by our dear boys in blue. If you ask me this is worse than Konfrantasi… versus a clear and present danger, we are now combating an even more insidious “enemy”: our “protectors” from within!
What happened to PS21? Didn’t our dear PM preach a new generation of openess? Did our dear MM not tell one brave man in a university talk (oh so long ago) to do something about it, like <b>write a blog</b>? Did someone forget to insert a key somewhere and turn on some brains? Or do our leaders really have selective memory?
I beseech the authorities to stop these neanderthal tactics and do some introspection on your actions. Do you really in good conscience think these actions are right?
