&lt;p&gt;I am not against PRC Chinese. Simply because if there are more
PRC people means that LKY and PAP comrades&amp;nbsp;is going to face
the music and take orders directly from the&amp;nbsp;Chinese Communist
Party. I wonder when LKY does retire from local politics at the age
of 100, will&amp;nbsp;CCP give Comrade LKY his PRC passport and hire
him as a consultant.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;LOL,hey u know that time,LKY even says that PRC Chinese are
smarter than Singaporeans.I think this fuking old man brain is
rotten already.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

I am sure that you do not&amp;nbsp;seriously believe all that is said

&lt;p&gt;Do you know that in highly overtaxed Sweden, the Swedish
population is seeing an increase in the number of new births&amp;nbsp;-

&lt;p&gt;This fact is too embarrassing to be told by the Singapore Ruling
Political Party, who prefer to generalise and&amp;nbsp;make
inconsequential comparisons&amp;nbsp;with other countries so as to
justify the&amp;nbsp;relevance of their preferred positions on so many
other local&amp;nbsp;social issues.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is done to avoid responding to the cries from many
Singaporean families for social support&amp;nbsp;even as this
Singapore&amp;nbsp;Government&amp;nbsp;take more from Singaporeans than the
Swedish Government taxes&amp;nbsp;on the Swedes.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;"&amp;nbsp;making love-it is always easier the second time! The
first time there may be pangs of conscience, a sense of guilt."&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I never could understand this bit. The first time LKY make love
have a sense of guilt meh?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The guilt came about as the fact that he married someone older then
him - probably against parental objections.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That thought must have entered his mind, as he entered
''forbidden space'' for the first time in&amp;nbsp;both
their&amp;nbsp;lives.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;haha...Atobe fears the competition from foreigners. Be afraid,
be very afraid....you&amp;nbsp;might just go the way of the
dodo.&lt;img src="/images/emoticons/kde-3.5.8/set1/smile.png" alt=
"smile.png" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Amazing reading ability from a 'mushroom' - which word in&amp;nbsp;my
paragraph which you quoted, had&amp;nbsp;given you the idea that
''Atobe fears the competition from foreigners'' ?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Yes, since you have brought it up,&amp;nbsp;you should ''be afraid,
be very afraid'' - as the dodo was crowded out of their living
space on the natural home of the dodo in the Mauritius, by the
human population that flowed over from the African continent.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Similarly, the Indian and Pakistani&amp;nbsp;migrants have been
settling down in UK, to such an extent that the social&amp;nbsp;color
of UK has turned from white to chocolate, with the
fresh&amp;nbsp;English country air&amp;nbsp;jarred by
the&amp;nbsp;acrid&amp;nbsp;smell of curries and garlic.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;At least, the British has the political and social space to
raise their voices and have them truly heard and represented in
Parliament.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Does Singaporeans have that same space under the&amp;nbsp;rule of
the Power of One, that replaced Colonial Rule with Autocratic Rule
?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div class="quote_from"&gt;Originally posted by Atobe:&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="quote_body"&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It is not only the PRC nationals that are raising the head
count, but also the Caucasians from Europe, UK and some from down
south; as well as&amp;nbsp;the&amp;nbsp;different ethnic groups&amp;nbsp;from
within ASEAN - especially the Chinese&amp;nbsp;from Malaysia, Indonesia
and Thailand, and some&amp;nbsp;Myanmese and Filippino nationals -
all&amp;nbsp;with tertiary education.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Singaporeans are marrying later, and not producing enough to
impact the population replacement count - when two married persons
will only produce only&amp;nbsp;one or maximum two babies, and some may
not even produce any.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;According to the thinking of the Ruling Political Party, this
can affect the long term&amp;nbsp;strategic position of Singapore - in
terms of available manpower for the economy, defense and the
availability of talents when the social environment will only
produce one talent from a pool of ten thousand
or&amp;nbsp;perhaps&amp;nbsp;a hundred&amp;nbsp;thousand.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Should we not hold the Ruling Political Party responsible in
creating this environment that lead the Singaporeans into a
situation that discourage early marriage, or when married to have
babies later, and not producing enough babies to maintain or even
increase the population growth ?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Should we not hold the Ruling Political Party responsible for
the supposed lack of talent, when they will not allow an
environment for talents to grow, where different ideas will
flourish, where mavericks can survive and thrive, where the
standard thinking will not stifle new thinking ?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Afterall, it was the eloquent speeches&amp;nbsp;from the
original&amp;nbsp;thinking of the&amp;nbsp;great MM LKY that inspired
Singaporeans that energised a political environment that allowed
him to exist:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style=
"font-family: Arial; color: black;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After more then 50 years of continuous Government by a single
Political Party influenced by the POWER of ONE - has the political,
social and cultural&amp;nbsp;environment improved from those days under
Colonial Rule by the British and replaced by the Malaysian Federal
Government ?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;PAP also tells us that declining birth rate is a trend that
developed countries faced &lt;img src=

&lt;p&gt;It is not only the PRC nationals that are raising the head
count, but also the Caucasians from Europe, UK and some from down
south; as well as&amp;nbsp;the&amp;nbsp;different ethnic groups&amp;nbsp;from
within ASEAN - especially the Chinese&amp;nbsp;from Malaysia, Indonesia
and Thailand, and some&amp;nbsp;Myanmese and Filippino nationals -
all&amp;nbsp;with tertiary education.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Singaporeans are marrying later, and not producing enough to
impact the population replacement count - when two married persons
will only produce only&amp;nbsp;one or maximum two babies, and some may
not even produce any.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;According to the thinking of the Ruling Political Party, this
can affect the long term&amp;nbsp;strategic position of Singapore - in
terms of available manpower for the economy, defense and the
availability of talents when the social environment will only
produce one talent from a pool of ten thousand
or&amp;nbsp;perhaps&amp;nbsp;a hundred&amp;nbsp;thousand.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Should we not hold the Ruling Political Party responsible in
creating this environment that lead the Singaporeans into a
situation that discourage early marriage, or when married to have
babies later, and not producing enough babies to maintain or even
increase the population growth ?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Should we not hold the Ruling Political Party responsible for
the supposed lack of talent, when they will not allow an
environment for talents to grow, where different ideas will
flourish, where mavericks can survive and thrive, where the
standard thinking will not stifle new thinking ?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Afterall, it was the eloquent speeches&amp;nbsp;from the
original&amp;nbsp;thinking of the&amp;nbsp;great MM LKY that inspired
Singaporeans that energised a political environment that allowed
him to exist:&lt;/p&gt;

"If we are to survive as a free democracy, then we must be
prepared, in principle, to concede to our enemies - even those who
do not subscribe to our views - as much(sic)constitutional rights
as you concede yourself." - &lt;em&gt;Lee Kuan Yew Legislative Assembly
Debates Sept 21, 1955&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;"&lt;/em&gt;But we either believe in democracy or we not. If we do,
then, we must say categorically, without qualification, that no
restraint from the any democratic processes, other than by the
ordinary law of the land, should be allowed... If you believe in
democracy, you must believe in it unconditionally. If you believe
that men should be free, then, they should have the right of free
association, of free speech, of free publication. Then, no law
should permit those democratic processes to be set at nought, and
no excuse, whether of security, should allow a government to be
deterred from doing what it knows to right, and what it must know
to be right... "- &lt;em&gt;Lee Kuan Yew, Legislative Assembly Debates
April 27, 1955&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
"Let us get down to fundamentals. Is this an open, or is this a
closed society? Is it a society where men can preach ideas - novel,
unorthodox, heresies, to established churches and established
governments - where there is a constant contest for men's hearts
and minds on the basis of what is right, of what is just, of what
is in the national interests, or is it a closed society where the
mass media - the newspapaers, the journals, publications, TV, radio
- either bound by sound or by sight, or both sound and sight, men's
minds are fed with a constant drone of sycophantic support for a
particular orthodox political philosophy? That is the first
question we asked ourselves. I would like to see minds stimulated
and debate provoked, and truth refined and crystallized out of the
conflict of different evidence and views. I, therefore, welcome
every and any opportunity of a chance to agree, or to dissent, in
order that out of thesis comes synthesis - thesis, anti-major
premise, anti-premise, synthesis, so we progress... I welcome every
opportunity to meet members of the opposition, and so do members of
my party, over the radio, over the television, university forums,
public rallies. We never run away from the open encounter. If your
ideas, your views cannot stand the challenge of criticism then they
are too fragile and not sturdy enough to last. I am talking of the
principle of the open society, the open debate, ideas, not
intimidation, persuasion not coercion... Sir, the basic
fundamentals we asked ourselves...is whether the duties of the
Minister of Information and Broadcasting are to produce closed
minds or open minds, because these instruments - the mass media,
the TV, the radio - can produce either the open minds receptive to
ideas and ideals, a democratic system of life, or closed and
limited. But I know that the open debate is a painful process for
closed minds...But let me make this point: that 5 million adult
minds in Malaysia cannot be closed - definitely not in the lifetime
of the people in authority. It is not possible because whatever the
faults of the colonial system, and there are many...they generated
the open mind, the inquiring mind." &lt;em&gt;- Lee Kuan Yew Dec 18, 1964
Malaysian Parliamentary Debates&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

"Repression" rel="nofollow" id="Repression"&gt;&lt;span style=
"color: #000000;"&gt;Repression&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, Sir is a habit that grows.
I am told it is like making love-it is always easier the second
time! The first time there may be pangs of conscience, a sense of
guilt. But once embarked on this course with constant repetition
you get more and more brazen in the attack. All you have to do is
to dissolve organizations and societies and banish and detain the
key political workers in these societies. Then miraculously
everything is tranquil on the surface. Then an intimidated press
and the government-controlled radio together can regularly sing
your praises, and slowly and steadily the people are made to forget
the evil things that have already been done, or if these things are
referred to again they're conveniently distorted and distorted with
impunity, because there will be no opposition to contradict."
&lt;em&gt;-Lee Kuan Yew as an opposition PAP member during 1956 speaking
to David Marshall&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After more then 50 years of continuous Government by a single
Political Party influenced by the POWER of ONE - has the political,
social and cultural&amp;nbsp;environment improved from those days under
Colonial Rule by the British and replaced by the Malaysian Federal
Government ?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I know i should not create a hate between us and the PRC
Chinese.But, really i can't stop thinking that our own country are
full of them here.Especially those ah beng China PRC guys, and ah
Lian PRC girls.So many of them roaming around in Singapore now.I
thought i am in China instead of Singapore.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Honestly speaking, i dont have any good impression of those
China PRC guys, they stare at you, talk so loud and rough, and if
they are in a group, better don't disturb them cause they behave
like gangster when they are in a group.Not all but most.This is
what i saw and i just let it out here in this forum.Anyone agree
with me, we must do a control on the input of China PRC into
Singapore now! I had to say, control doesnt mean stop them from
coming here.I mean control the amount of them getting our jobs.Or
to say, control on the quality of the China PRC getting PR.Only
good and well behave PRC will get the PR.I am afraid if we did not
do a control on the quality of those coming here, Singapore will be
flooded by those gangster PRC China people!!!&lt;/p&gt;

      <description>&lt;p&gt;I am not against PRC Chinese. Simply because if there are more
PRC people means that LKY and PAP comrades&amp;nbsp;is going to face
the music and take orders directly from the&amp;nbsp;Chinese Communist
Party. I wonder when LKY does retire from local politics at the age
of 100, will&amp;nbsp;CCP give Comrade LKY his PRC passport and hire
him as a consultant.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
