李光耀100年,可否预料到儿子会被告。 或许,这是一种‘大公无私“的进步?

 李光耀100年,可否预料到儿子会被告。

或许,这是一种‘大公无私“的进步?


也或许是一种退步。李光耀在位,担任领导人的时候,控告对手诽谤,是他的一项专长。有些人被告到破产,有些自我流放,沦落他乡。一听到有人被告,大家都替他担心,认为凶多吉少,后果不堪设想。


既是进步,也是退步。连李显扬也被人告,这显示李家人人都可以成为被告。这说明新加坡的法制是公平的,即使贵为李家公子,也可能被提告。这是进步。不过,这真的是新加坡人要的进步吗?


那么,退步又作何解?这60年来,新加坡人从害怕内安法,红帽子,发展到害怕说话不小心,被人提告诽谤。100年的李光耀,新加坡还是无法摆脱政治上的诽谤案。不但,诽谤没有消失,虚假新闻,更正指示却成了新的潮流、新手段。


诽谤作为政治手段,它的继续存在,并且还与时并进,发扬光大,我们应该定义它为进步还是退步。难道,我们没有更好的选择吗?如果更正指示是最新,更好的选择,那么,它到底是进步还是退步?还是,它化身成为温和版的诽谤工具,利用花蝴蝶版的政府立场、声明来压制政府不想让人看到的另一面。


进步的同时,也在退步?李光耀100年,他的精神、手段,作风,要如何融合未来的新加坡。60年前的奋斗、艰辛岁月,年轻一代会如何看待李光耀的相关性,适用性,以及它的实用性?

Sub-standard PAP and the Singapore education system

I make a 'policy shift' when I hear the debate of right politics, constructive politics and sub-standard opposition. My original aim is to discuss about “Su Dongbo, Zhang Juzheng and Singapore education system”. The discussion will end with a sub-standard PAP, in particular from the assessment of the quality of PAP potential candidates. Another policy shift is to discuss it like a play, a drama and make it more entertainment rather than a sub-standard political discussion. Act 1 Gangster’s demand Imagine a sense in the Hong Kong's gangster movie (or a godfather movie), the gangsters' master is shouting at his poor opponent and demand him to give a price for his wrong act. The poor guy without any resources can only offer his body or his service to work for the master. Back in his own chamber, the master is still not satisfied and continues to shout 'don't play, play, you think you are hero, you think you are tiger, or superstar or acting

EBRC objectives: Stop “Out of Aljunied”, Stop SDP Breakthrough and “Negative-Asset” Ministers.

First of all, we have to congratulate the Electoral Boundaries Review Committee for creating more competitions, especially, multi-cornered competitions in the East. When making changes, EBRC aims to achieve 3 goals: To prevent “Out of Aljunied” for Workers’ Party.  This is the most important objective. To prevent Singapore Democratic Party making any breakthrough in the North and Central.   To look for a solution to retire “negative-asset” ministers or reduce PAP damages. From the reported claims from different political parties, we will expect multi-cornered contests not only in single constituencies but also in group representative constituencies. The PAP hopes to have a repeat of 2011 Presidential Election. Then Tony Tan won the Presidency when he got only 35% of the votes, a narrow win.However, a win is still a win. He did in even in the very last minute, after recounts of votes.    How to achieve multi-cornered contests? By inserting a single c
