Money for Crowdfunding.
No Money for newspapers.
Poor Singaporeans use money in the wrong way.
Ah Q mentality or Ah Q relaxation? Or both.
Lee Hsien Loong is acting like Ah Q entertaining Singaporeans! Enjoy!
But the PAP will think the other way. ‘Money for crowdfunding’ is an Ah Q mentality as Roy and Leong cannot win in Courts but can only enjoy a spiritual win. At the same time, their supporters enjoy an Ah Q relaxation as they know too well they cannot win in Courts under the current situation. The only thing they can do is to have ‘no money for local newspapers’.
So, everyone is Ah Q. Of course, you have a choice to be mental Ah Q or a relaxed Ah Q.
Some examples of Ah Q mentality: ownself check ownself...
Attitude towards foreigners
The attitude of public prosecutors in the case of Parti Liyani
South Asia instead of India
Definition of ‘Core Singaporeans’ by Heng SK
Some examples of Ah Q relaxation: just laugh...the reasons behind
Amended Presidential Election
38 Oxley Road dispute
Succession, Heng Swee Keat and 4G ministers
Police investigations of 1-man protest
Singaporeans have no money to buy local newspapers but have money for donations. Despite monopoly, SPH newspapers cannot survive under commercial operation and have to ask for government funding.
Confidence is the real reason. News media cannot survive if there are no readers. Singaporeans would rather donate money to Leong and Roy, instead of spending a single cent to SPH Media.
Singaporeans, who donate, are a minority. Yes. In terms of voters’ percentage, it is below 1%. The PAP is laughing at the donations as there is no representation. However, the trend in newspapers is another picture. The PAP is not afraid of losing the monopoly but the readership. SPH Media is like another Ah Q which is now facing a major problem and a reform is urgently needed.
In the True Story of Ah Q by Lu Xun,
Ah Q is a self-interest and self absorption person.
{Ah Q’s character traits:
Blinded by self-interests[edit]
...One of the Ah Q's personality traits is that, no matter what happens, Ah Q always makes an excuse to get out of a tight spot.
Self-absorption[edit]
A strong character trait of Ah Q is his limited focus on himself and his own outlook. Ah Q does not consider how others view him, engage in perspective-taking or impression management; ...he neither notices nor cares because he is strictly focused on his own needs and desires. }

‘Ah-Q’s Victories’
Based on his mentality, his self-interest, his self absorption, Ah Q can always claim victories. No matter in what circumstances, Ah Q always wins in his own circle of life.
This is the PAP of today. Always right, no wrong. Finding excuses to cover up mistakes have become their new normal.
