In the main media it is reported that the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights in Bangkok has called on the Govt for Amos Yee’s IMMEDIATE RELEASE.
PS. This just came out.
For Immediate Release
Singapore: Exonerate 16-Year-Old Blogger
Uphold Amos Yee’s Free Expression Rights, Child Protections
(Bangkok,
June 23, 2015) – Singapore authorities should exonerate a 16-year-old convicted
for a blog and video post about the death of Singapore’s founding prime
minister, Lee Kuan Yew, Human Rights Watch said today.
Perhaps the punishment is far to severe for crime. There is no need to kill a fly with a hammer, so the saying goes.
ReplyDeleteAll they are saying is that he punishment must be age appropriate.
ReplyDeleteJust like the outdoor treacherous mountain climbing at KK is it age appropriate.
Once the precedent is set it is the slippery slope of no return,
Thus the govt action and then perpetrator must be loudly condemned!!
It is widely believed and percieved that there is much DURESS and EXCESSIVE PUNISHMENT on the Boy.
ReplyDeleteThe International Communities and Organizations have to seek justice for the OUT OF PROPORTION TREATMENT ON AMOS YEE.
BEFORE THE FINAL PENALTY IS DECIDED, AMOS YEE HAD ALREADY SUFFERED MUCH MORE THAN HE DESERVES FOR THE SILLY MISTAKE OF PUBLISHING VULGARITY.

ReplyDelete可怜! 可怜!
真的很可怜!
In sinkieland, anybody posed a Threat to the incumbents and their system must be put down merciless.
ReplyDeleteWhat's else to carry on our status quo and the good lives.
We are with the people and we are your servants is reverse in their quotation.
The sad thing, Vatican is keeping quiet. Amos is a catholic.
ReplyDeleteWhat if this boy dies in prison?
ReplyDeleteAmos to be remanded for 2 more weeks at IMH by Judge Kaur.
ReplyDeleteCNA reports, 'A doctor's report states that the teen blogger may suffer from autism-spectrum disorder. Pending a psychiatric report from the Institute of Mental Health, he may have to undergo mandatory treatment.'
If psst political history is the norm, this is not surprising. How many political opponents have been destroyed financially, politcally and mentally by the PAP? Recent ones like Francis Seow, Tang Liang Hong and J.B. Jeyaaratnam springs to mind. In the same vein, Amos Yee will grow up to be another that will challenge the PAP and must be destroyed, by hook or by crook.
ReplyDeleteThe silence of the Singaporean sheep is deafening.
ReplyDeleteI think Amos Yee sacrifice himself fighting for "nothing".
Lucky I kept out of trouble when I was young. And survived long enough to realize Sinkies are not worth dying for.
Huk Pui to my 60% Sinkies.
Bro, sixty percent of those who proclaimed as long as myself and my family are ok, why bother much of others!
DeleteAs long as I am making fortunes now, why bother !
These misfortunes would not happen to me as long as I go along with the flow
Let others fight the battles on our behalf if there are injustices! Are there really injustices?!?
They forget that what can happen to others can also happen to them
Man proposes, God disposes

ReplyDelete有良知吗 ??????
Dear Redbean, thank you very much for your sterling effort.
ReplyDeleteAmos is still in jail. Freedom is indivisible, and when one boy is enslaved, all are not free. We have to keep trying to open the eyes and hearts of the 60% minions in Singapore.
