Dear All,
After so many years, I picked up an ST paper today.
I was amazed to see the amount of crap in it but what stood out most was that the SDA was going to try to emulate the BN of Malaysia.
What I am utterly shocked at is that these politicians in Sg want to emulate a failing system riddled with corruption and nepotism and not to mention money politics.
This is very much akin to the politics of Sg as it is but instead of trying to create a new mindset and strive for a new direction, SDA's opposition politicians are holding the BN's system as a goal to achieve.
I think it was the the Sec-Gen of the SDA who said, I quote, "...the BN has been in power for so long and it has shown stability."
He might as well have said the PAP is in power for so long and they are the best people to emulate!
I am amazed that a person who can be elected as Sec-Gen is so ignorant of what is happening in Malaysia and is utterly devoid of creativity in coming up with a new political realisation, agenda and goal for all those who believe what a true democracy should be.
If this is the state of how things are, then I am really sad for Sgeans and I am glad that I have put my papers in to move to the US.
Yes, of course, in the US I may be a second class citizen since I am truly a migrant and I know my role and position and I am willing to accept that.
Sheesh!
Cheers,
MentisMortis
