I believe him. As a trained lawyer, I doubt he will make statements he knows to be untrue. However, it maybe that it was the plan they had but it certainly does not imply that it is still the same plan today.

You mean this? from my archives.

PM Lee said:
"Right now we have Low Thia Khiang, Chiam See Tong, Steve Chia. We can deal with them. Suppose you had 10, 15, 20 opposition members in Parliament. Instead of spending my time thinking what is the right policy for , I'm going to spend all my time thinking what is the right way to fix them, to buy my supporters votes, how can I solve this week's problem and forget about next year's challenges?

The PAP continues to treat sinkees as idiots. Toss them out in the next election to have the last laugh. Make these millionaires jobless and the new government should look for skeletons in the closet.

Chairman Mao also another one that liked to talk rot. It is like breaking wind to them. When the wind blows, the fart is gone once again. Talking cock no need money. But for the 60%, they will feel high. Million dollars stars must talk like assholes.

Where is auri and GMS when you need them? The PAP was basically implying that the tax dollars raised from GST would be used to make subsidies or transfer payments to the needy. However we all know there is no direct transfer of tax dollars to the poor. Tax dollars are most likely channeled to NTUC, Workfare or the Jobs Credit Scheme. True beneficiary of Workfare and Jobs Credit are private enterprises. Tell that to all your PAP supporter friends who think they are smarter than everyone else. All of them fooled by PAP sophistry.

the good shrewd thing about gahmen is when they "suan" us (sarcastic remark), they get to be paid in million$. when we suan them back, we have to pay them bankrupting fines in defamation suit where whichever side the dice lands, head they win, tail we lose.
