China has refuted claims that it is conducting so-called "influence operations" in Singapore.

This response was issued after a report published by Washington D.C.-based think tank Jamestown Foundation, claimed that China is using different avenues to promote the idea of a "greater China" with people of Chinese descent, regardless of nationality.

In doing so, the Chinese Communist Party hopes to impose a "Chinese identity" on Singapore so the city-state will "align more closely" with Beijing's "expanding interests", the report alleged.

China denies it's trying to "influence" Singapore

In a Facebook post published on Friday, July 19, the Chinese Embassy in Singapore said such claims are "groundless and distorted from truth".

Report is lying

The embassy said the "unique connections in history and culture" between both countries are a "natural advantage in promoting bilateral cooperation".
However, such ties are "taken by someone as an excuse for attack", which hurts not only China, but also Singapore, it continued.
"Lies are lies," the embassy wrote. "The more they are repeated, the more nonsense they are."

Report aims to ruin the friendship between Singapore and China

The embassy also said that while the report is "absurd", its purpose is "clear".
And that is to "alienate the friendship" of the Chinese and the Singaporean peoples, and to "hinder normal exchanges between the two countries", it claimed.

Media has responsibility to promote Singapore-China relations: China

In addition, the embassy said it is the "shared responsibility" of all, including the media, to promote ties between Singapore and China.
It also emphasised the importance of a "healthy social and public opinion environment".

China is committed to promoting ties with Singapore

Lastly, it reiterated that China respects Singapore as a "multi-cultural and multi-religious state" and will remain committed to developing friendly relations with Singapore on the basis of "mutual respect, equality and mutual benefit".

I rest my case.

Diplomatic ties with (the People's Republic of) China should be severed. Establish diplomatic ties with Taiwan instead.

CCP commiecunts cannot be trusted. Just remember how SIP ended. We loss millions when cooperating with CCP but when CCP took over major shares, it suddenly became very profitable the very next year.

CCP win win is CCP win 2 time while you lose.

Why isn't the Confucius Institute shut down yet?

https://foreignpolicy.com/2019/10/1...propaganda-campus-communist-party-censorship/

Confucius Institutes have been critiqued for repeatedly straying from their publicly declared key task of providing Mandarin Chinese language training and for venturing into deep ideological territory. There is mounting evidence that the institutes’ learning materials distort contemporary Chinese history and omit party-induced humanitarian catastrophes such as the Great Leap Forward (1958-1961) and the Cultural Revolution (1966-1976) entirely. At Confucius Institute events, politically sensitive issues like Taiwan, Tibet, and Tiananmen cannot be publicly discussed either. In 2014, a conference in Braga, Portugal, that involved both the Confucius Institute headquarters and the Taiwan-based Chiang Ching-kuo Foundation for International Scholarly Exchange as co-sponsors was unceremoniously interrupted by Confucius Institute headquarters chief Xu Lin. And under the conditions of the Seven Don’t Speak directive, mainland Chinese education workers are barred from talking about universal values, freedom of speech, civil society, civil rights, the historical errors of the CCP, official bourgeoisie, and judicial independence—even when overseas.

Has anyone read the Jamestown Report? This is very concerning!

https://jamestown.org/program/a-preliminary-survey-of-ccp-influence-operations-in-singapore/

As China rises on the world stage, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is increasingly utilizing all levers of influence to achieve and secure its national objectives along its periphery and globally. To achieve and secure those objectives, the CCP is employing political warfare. [1] Political warfare is a set of overt and covert tools used by governments to influence the perceptions, beliefs, and behaviors of other governments and societies in order to achieve national objectives. [2] Set within a broader discussion about how CCP engages in influence operations in Asia, Singapore presents a valuable case study for understanding the means by which the CCP engages in influence operations that target a majority ethnic-Chinese state.

That's basically how it operates in other big cities where there is a high number of Chinese people e.g. NYC, San Francisco, Vancouver, Melbourne.

Scaremongering is a hallmark of PAP tactic. The Yanks have taken a leaf from PAP here in spreading such fake news.

Yes but do we know the following?They are using clan associations?

The fundamental purpose of Chinese propaganda and influence operations in Singapore is to impose a Chinese identity on Singapore. Towards that end, China is using cultural organizations, clan associations, business associations, and youth programs to engage in influence operations in Singapore. Beijing’s vehement reaction to Singapore’s response in support of the South China Sea ruling by the Hague-based Permanent Court of Arbitration (Today, July 12, 2016; Straits Times, August 6, 2016) reflect its broader and innate belief that, as a majority ethnic-Chinese country, Singapore should understand and support the Chinese position. CCP General Secretary Xi Jinping’s policies of blurring the line between “Chinese people” (huaren, 华人) and “overseas Chinese” (huaqiao, 华侨), intensified propaganda, and new laws related to overseas Chinese have all caused heightened concern in Singapore. Singapore’s government views identity as an existential issue, and is likely to resist CCP efforts to make inroads in this area.

The Chinese are poisoning our lives with their filth. We are smarter than they are just because our grandparents were born there, this is wrong thinking.

We must ban all links to clan Association, cultural association, and youth program from outside influence. we are singaporean chinese not china chinese.

If you have sensitive information, put it on 4chan. Forget about forums, especially Fuckwarezone.

Reddit and Twitter have been bribed by the Chicoms already.
