    the idiocy that is SINGAPORE

    oh i just love how many idiots there are in this bloody useless country.
     
    EXHIBIT A: Derek. sorry dude, the world isn't going to take it easy on your simply because you're getting older. if you're no longer employed, it's because you simply weren't useful. you're right - the company does have to deal with the bottom line. but that doesn't mean that you can't make yourself more useful to the company. the government retrains out-of-date workers for a reason. retraining - that's what keep jobs in our later years. the government HAS given you an avenue to better yourself and keep you relevant, but nooo you have to bitch about the government's lack of focus on the elderly. you have NO right to bitch, and if you can't speak english, DON'T. hate this country's "identity" - SINGLISH. embarrassment to the human race for REAL.
     
    EXHIBIT B: Little Miss Bitch. seriously, even the people who CAN speak english think you're a bitch. you are the most WORTHLESS little worm on this - and any other - planet. after all, you may be well educated at this point, but what you know goes out of date REAL fast in the real world. once you get over the age of parties and secondary/JC school moronic nonsense, we'll see how high you go when you're quashed by every other smartass in this country. i'd like to see which company needs a coffee fetcher with a degree - really. right now, your pride may be what keeps you "POPULAR" in school, but school's not the real world, just like NS isn't the real world (you wouldn't understand that either oooooh...) get over yourself. you ain't that great. neither am i, but at least i'm not proclaiming my ignorance regarding my insignificance. :) now leave my universe - i don't like little red stains on my already-red-enough car.
     
    EXHIBIT C: Little Miss Bitch's DAD. oh boy is THAT guy a moron or what. he's a typical example of an empowered idiot who lets his dumbass daughter mouth off in a PUBLIC FORUM. does NO ONE at this point understand that blogging is NOT a private matter unless you MAKE it a private matter, which blogspot does not allow. MSN Spaces has functions that allow certain groups to view the blog, which blogspot is ENTIRELY PUBLIC. you canNOT defend your daughter by saying that "she wrote in a private blog and I feel that her privacy has been violated. After all, they were the rantings of an 18-year-old among friends." she IS 18, and obviously YOUR skills as a parent are to be called into question to not teach your daughter an ounce of restraint and humility. i certainly hope she/YOU are not a christian - i don't need another reason to lose faith. your skills as a POLITICIAN, on the other hand, are clearly non-existent. do you even KNOW what it means to have freedom of speech? it means that you can say what you want without fear of CRIMINAL consequences. you CAN be sued, you CAN be killed and you CAN be silenced. freedom of speech does NOT mean freedom from consequences.
     
    *maybe someone should suggest to blogspot some way to make blogs private. that way, morons and their daughters wouldn't appear in the papers again.
     
    HOWEVER, i LOOOOVE this guy. COUNTER-EXHIBIT D: Teoh Tian Jing. this guy is DA MAN! he LAMBASTED this useless father/politician for his lame defence of his black hole (not only does she sound like a taken/non-giver, she also sucks). i quote his message:
     
    "There is no doubt in my mind that until now, both you father and daughter have no idea what the fuss is all about. The strong language is one issue, (and that may be forgivable), but the underlying message of the blog posting and your subsequent reply shows that you simply have no concern about the struggles of the commoners, even those who're educated. Is this your job as a MP? Is your job not suppose to speak for your people? Instead, you trash them for being unable to face the 'challenges of life'.
    "I am deeply ashamed to see someone as pretentious as you sitting on a parliament seat. Why do I say pretentious? If this is how you daughter and father think in private with your elitism views of the society, I cannot even fathom why you should continue being an MP. Surely, how can someone like you begin to imagine what it is like to be near bankrupt because of a business failure? How it is to be debt ridden? How it feels like to be at your prime age of 40 and yet feel insecure about holding on to your job? Where is your compassion and understanding of the unfortunate ones who are only venting their frustruation through a virtual medium? It sickens me to see that sort of remarks coming from a minister.

    "You and your daughter's remarks serves to only disconnect yourselves from the people you are supposed to be serving. This is not the kind of leadership that Singaporeans deserve, nor is what most of them want to see. If this reflects the mindset of the people who sits together on the pedestral you have stepped on, I fear for the future of the less fortunate, less educated Singaporeans."
     
    THANK YOU, GOD. finally, here is someone who understands that what he is saying, and saying it in appropriate, semi-accurate english. warms my heart to know someone out there is willing to chastise the government without fear of repression. THAT, ladies and gentlemen, is what "Freedom of Speech" is all about. unfortunately, the Straits Times CAN and WILL suppress any and all anti-government letters, which includes letters to specific "employees" as people. even if it's not true, you can't prove it, can you? this is the public perception of the newspapers. and it's not just the people IN the country that know it. it's the international community that knows it. MM has defended this practice of govenment control over the newspapers as keeping the peace. riiight. love that. don't even get me started on the old man.
