observe how their collective mentality about self-righteousness and above the law attitude. it's like everything they say or act shoud be correct. the law that probihits their antics is definitely flawed or drastically wrong!! so they are above the law - my god!!
Yesterday (Monday) also put me into a position. My friends Chong Kaixiong and Seelan Palay were arrested on a pavement outside the Ministry of Manpower. They had tried to bring the plight of Burmese activists to the forefront of attention. [The Singapore Government sleeps with the murderous Burmese Military Junta and willingly denigrates and subjugates itself to be a lowly servant of the Burmese Generals. The Government has no sense of shame, they refuse to renew the work permits of specific Burmese who have protested during the ASEAN Conference in November 2007, is anyone supposed to believe that this was not done at the instruction and request of the Burmese Generals?]
Seelan and Kaixiong had conducted everything in accordance with the law and there were only 2 of them. However, they were promptly arrested and handcuffed and brought to Police Cantonment Complex. They were told that they were being investigated for criminal trespass. This was what i found out when I went down on the evening of yesterday to bail them. It was fortunate that Choon Hiong came down as well as the police insisted that there had to be 2 bailors for the 2 of them. This was something new.
I am very intrigued by such a requirement. Why is it that we would need to have separate bailors for each accused? Contrast these 2 Singaporeans with the 200 PRC who protested outside the MOM standing not at the pavement by the road but right at the door of the Ministry of Manpower. Not a single bailor was required of them. Why? because none of the 200 PRC were arrested or investigated. The Singapore authorities had absolutely no balls to take action against PRCs
Perhaps the Police, the MOM and the AGC [if the AGC were directing this] have got different considerations when it comes to treating Singapore Citizens and foreigners [in this case PRCs]. We can either surmise that different laws and standards apply to different groups in Singapore or the administration was cowered into inaction by 200 angry PRC, perhaps the balls of the administration shrank to nothingness when it comes to dealing with people that they feel they cannot bully.
They often say that the administration in Singapore only knows how to bully its citizens and they are foreigner lovers. How true this adage has become! I also agree with it. However, I am more inclined to believe that the civil service is now staffed by many foreigners which might explain why the disparity in treatment when it comes to distinguishing Singaporeans from foreigners.
On a lighter note, I noticed a report in today’s Today newspaper which acknowledges the cause that Seelan and Kaixiong stood for is morally superior. I must say it is about time such acknowledgments came. This is an indication of the times to come. As to whether Seelan or Kaixiong will be eventually charged, we shall have
and he didn't write that the FOREIGNERS are especially delighted to help chee and his sdppies. why did he miss out that?
