There will be a Candle Light Vigil for Roy
Ngerng on September 17, to express support and
solidarity for his High Court hearing.
It
will be held at Hong Lim Green from 7 pm till midnight. You can bring your own candles, ground
sheets, umbrellas and light refreshment for the evening.
As Roy will be facing the biggest trial of his life it is incumbent
on all of us to come forward and lend him the moral support that he needs,
He has done us proud by raising an issue which was left
dormant for so many years.
We will mark the evening
with music camaraderie and communion on our country’s future.
Please come with your friends and loved ones and spend an
evening under the stars
Thank
you.
Convenors:
Patrick Low,
Teo Soh Lung
The above is a release by the organisers of the event. For those who would like to show their support for Roy Ngerng, this is a good opportunity to do something. It is not just about Roy, but also about opposing the methodology used against the critics by the rich and powerful. We have witnessed in the past how the rich and powerful have used the courts of law to force their justice onto the weak and poor who could not afford the legal fees and had to swallow injustice against them.
For those who have contributed to Roy's legal fee fund generously, this would be another way to show your support, in silence, in the darkness of Hong Lim, with a little light.
For those who are fighting for the return of their CPF money, they could show a little gratitude to this young man who have valiantly fought alone, on their behalf, against a mammoth machinery. Show Roy that you care and are deserving of his sacrifice. Show the rest of the Singaporeans that as a people, you are united behind Roy and would not abandon him at a moment when he needs your moral and physical support most.
The last thing is for Roy to walk alone in this difficult part of his journey, with the people he was fighting for walking away from him.
Would you be there? Do you care? Is there anything that matters to you for you to want to be there with your candle light?

ReplyDeleteRight Bro @09.51
ReplyDeleteNot WHITE but please do not leave the ballot marking column WHITE, please mark a cross of any other colour of the other candidates except the WHITES.
Cheers
It would have been better to organise during the day as nightfall would bring out the mosquitoes sucking your blood. Daytime already kena suck dry by white mosquitoes and night time kena black mosquitoes, tak boleh tahan leh
ReplyDelete@ overly and overtly MAUDLIN RB:

BZZZZZT! WRONG! . The issue of CPF has been a hot button for years. it has NEVER BEEN "dormant". Get your fucking facts straight, asshole roadside story teller!!
For e.g. I was writing about CPF being a Ponzi Tax long before Roy had even sprouted hair on his balls lah.
»» how the rich and powerful have used the courts of law to force their justice onto the weak and poor ««
Wah, so sad ah? Play the world's saddest song on the world's smallest violin lah!
Roy did good. But he also LIBELLED the PM -- i.e. indirectly accused the PM of theft lah, without offering any PROOF. This was a bad bad move. Had he not done so, Roy would have maintained his well-argued and strong position.
But everyone, relac lah. We all make errors in judgement when our passions get the better of us. So just "tahan" and take it on the chin, no big deal lah.
Q: »» 1. Would you be there?
2. Do you care?
3. Is there anything that matters to you for you to want to be there with your candle light? ««
A: 1. No
2. I care about FACTS. I do not give one shit about "feelings" or "emotions".
3. No. Everything in Awesome Singapore is already fait accompli. Just enjoy the show and make the most out of any profitable opportunity...i.e. maximum exploitation for maximum self interest....aka "Mind Your Own Business"
Friction between humans in SINKIELAND could likely be more pronounced down the road given that leaving space is shrinking in this tiny red rock of 715 sq km relative to the continued and relentless influx of people at net increment of about 100,000 annually.
ReplyDeleteAt 9,500 to 10,500 people per sq km by 2030, sinkieland may be surpassing the tipping point of sustainable population density for people to live, work, study, play and procreate. Coupled with high cost of living, humid warm equatorial weather, high pace and stress of living, heightened social inequality, selfish policies, hypocrisy aplenty among the YEW know who, etc etc, it could be a perfect storm in the making for explosive and even deadly encounters at abnormally high frequencies.
Being a small city state in this current ultra competitive and highly globalised uncertain world, SINKIELAND natural fate is akin to being between a rock and a hard place.
Without wise, far-sighted, enlightened leaders and selfless, non-self serving, non-self enriching, non-hypocritical leadership, lives for the masses can only be like rats packed in a more and more crowded cage. To survive in such cramped conditions, countless experiments had shown that the rats would end up clawing, biting, hurting each other to stay alive in such a sardine packed living space, if there is any left.
In recent decades, by migrating to a labour intensive service centric economy and a large proportion of which is low value-added such as food and beverage etc, highly friction-filled incidents and even disastrous outcome are almost inevitable in SINKIELAND in such an economy that needs more and more labour inputs to sustain it without much real per capita growth generating out of such state.
The window period to avoid going down such a path in SINKIELAND' s economic growth and development may have been squandered in the 90s and early 2000s.
Over the next 10 to 20 years, many native sinkies among the masses have to make the choice of whether to continue staying like rats in an over crowded, friction prone environment or uproot and go to some foreign land with plenty of breathing space and room to stretch the elbows and legs.
Indeed sinkies may have been led to more wilderness and desert-like destination in the past 24 years. From being caught between a rock and a hard place in the earlier years, sinkies now and going forward may find themselves being caught between an even HARDER rock and an equally HARDER place.
The difficulty and frustration to survive in such a cramped and stress-riddled pressure cooker environment could rise exponentially for more and more sinkies in each passing year in this cruel and unforgiving tiny red rock. Sooner rather than later, this could end up as an accelerated race of attrition for many.
The absurdity of making this 715 sq km tiny red rock as an independent nation state by old man may come back to haunt him and his successors 60 or 70 years late by 2025 or 2035 and onwards. This possible outcome could have been avoided if the chances were not squandered by self-serving and self-enriching leadership in the 90s and 2000s.
When leaders start renumerating themselves with millions in tax payers fund, sinkies should have guessed the leeders' hearts could not have been in the right place. Which caring leaders in history ever helped themselves to the millions of tax payers monies in salaries and bonuses and yet still have the interests of the masses in the heart of their policies?
MS, wah seh, you so clever. You raised this issue before Roy? You want to claim credit?
ReplyDeleteHow come no one knows? No one even bother to go and read your silly blog. And you don't care about feelings? I am very sure, double confirm sure, that you are so jealous of RB. So everytime you appear here you must take a dig at RB for taking the limelight from you.
Loser!!! Sad and pathetic loser. If you are worth your salt, go and get a few readers to go and read your blog. If not you can't even hold a candle to this roadside story teller that makes you feel so lonely.
Thank you RB, for putting this attention seeker in his place by not saying anything and not be dragged into this vulgarity that he is so proud of. He thinks that is maturity.
mortal and losing @313:
ReplyDeleteThank you for the attention you are paying. It is good for you to waste your time, remember, one day you die (probably painfully) and by then it is TOO LATE to recover the time you've wasted on trolls like me, who are here to "entice" you to waste your time :-)
Good luck -- obviously you don't have much of it ;-)
Matilar,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your concern. Fortunately time is what I have now and nothing much to do except to try to get u to the right path. God bless.
