李光耀的“华文无用论”,发展到“华文不及格的荣光”:无法挽回的后遗症 这或许是黄循财对中日关系误判的真正原因?

 李光耀的“华文无用论”,发展到“华文不及格的荣光”:无法挽回的后遗症

这或许是黄循财对中日关系误判的真正原因?

我们无意全盘否定李光耀。在那个年代,他的选择或许是最不坏的一个。但历史从来不是一道单选题。当他为了生存把英语捧上神坛时,他也亲手为未来的新加坡埋下了一颗定时炸弹——一颗在黄循财发言时引爆、在王乙康讲话时显露、在未来每一代新加坡年轻人身上都会反复作痛的炸弹。

黄循财对中日关系的“误判”,并非因为他是一个糟糕的外交官,而是因为他是一个典型的、被新加坡语言机器塑造出来的产物。他不是个例,而是标准品。如果连总理都无法本能地理解那段历史,而大多数国民还觉得他说的对,这个国家的战略判断力还能依靠谁?

李光耀给了新加坡一个繁荣的躯壳,却抽走了它理解亚洲的灵魂。这笔账,正在由黄循财这一代领导人,以及全体新加坡人——分期偿还。

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 ...

Is Prism Project Another Central Planning of the PAP?

There are 3 scenarios under the Prism Project#1 of Institute of Public Policy.  However, it looks more like the central scenario planning of the People’s Action Party. From the instructional menu of Prism Project Primer #2, participants were guided to a situation in 2022 and they have to imagine, within the Primer framework, to come out with 3 possible scenarios in Jun-Aug 2012.  2022. What a coincidence! Not long ago, PM Lee declared that he would like to hold the prime minister post for another 10 years. The other coincidence is the similarity between the 3 scenarios and the candidates of PE2011. How competitive and sustainable are the 3 scenarios to the people of Singapore and to the PAP?   Will the scenarios produce competitive and sustainable Singapore, Singaporeans or the PAP?  Perhaps, as what the Chinese say: planning cannot always catch up with changes.   And planning sometimes turns out the wrong, bad and unexpected results, espec...

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 i...
