Leslie Fong,
the former editor of the ST, an establishment men, or used to be a part of the
establishment. His views must still be a reflection of what the establishment
is thinking. But he put it that what he wrote was not his views but the view of
a Taiwanese lady by the name Ms Oh Beigong through a letter to the Japanese
Admiral in charge of the American Pacific Fleet by the name of Harry Harris. A
yellow banana for sure, very like the Singaporean banana, but a very dangerous
one.
In brief, Ms
Oh Beigong, or in Hokien Ms Black White Said, the Americans were just pretending
about Freedom of Navigation but using it to pick on China while the American
allies like Japan, the Philippines and Vietnam have been doing exactly what
China is doing but no Freedom of Navigation to their reclaimed and militarized
islands were conducted by the Americans.
The bottom
line, in Leslie’s article, through Ms Oh Beigong, is this. ‘Might is right. The
US is out to stymie the rise of China and prevent it from challenging American
dominance, if not hegemony. We get that. So do us a favour, please stop talking
about high principles and international law. However, if you wish to regain at
least a modicum of respect from clear sighted people in this region, here is
something you…can do. In the name of asserting freedom of navigation and
upholding international law, send your destroyer or whatever to an atoll in the
Philippine Sea which the Japanese call Okinotorishima and claim as their
territory….the atoll lies 1,700km south of Tokyo, …but less than 500 km from
Taiwan itself.’
The American
hypocrisy in the South China Sea is exposed by this dear letter to the American
banana now called Harry Harris, no Hiroshima or Nagasaki. It is all about
gunboat diplomacy, about control of the South China Sea, about American
hegemony.
What shit is
the talk about splitting Asean countries by the other side of the establishment?
What is the real issue? China claiming the islands, Asean countries claiming
the islands, or the American claiming the whole South China Sea?
Thank you
Leslie Fong. Oops, thank you Ms Oh Beigong.

Do you think this is also a divergent view?
Is PAP the voice of Aliens and Millionaires in Parliament?
Do Singaporeans need an Opposition core to be the voice of Singaporeans' in Parliament?
The bottom line, in Leslie’s article, through Ms Oh Beigong, is this. ‘Might is right.

Tiok lah. That's why PAP being the ruling party has might and therefore is right, tio bo?
If only those Sinkie opposition parties know this, they would not even want to exist, let alone contest elections.
But of course Chee Soon Juan is different. He said SDP does not exist just to win elections. So every time he lose, SDP lose, never mind lah.
Oh Beigong in Taiwanese Tai Li or Hokien means "Bluff Bluff" or "Don't anyhow say"
This Ms Oh Beigong is telling the Americans Do not bullshit and bluff the people that you are doing a service to the South and South East Asian Nations.

Tiok.
So don't go crying to the Americans when China wants to reunite with Taiwan.
Ms Don't any how say think be happy to reunite with China if she gives pro China views.
Quite a number are pro China Taiwanese.
Better unite than be running dog for the USA and be manipulated by them by Chinese against Chinese and killing Chinese.
Even one china man said Mei You Yee She.
Chinese killing Chinese.
In Sinkieland, this is different.

Okinotorishima is a reef the Jap put in concrete to expand. It is not habitable to anybody. The Japs used this as an island and claim its territory within 200 nautical mile.
End April a Tw fishing boat was arrested, the fisher man sent to Yokohama prison. Then the Ma govt sent in the biggest war ship to protect fishing near Okinotorishima. The Japs retreated. After the Tsai govt took over, the Tw warship was withdrawn. The fisher men asked the Tsai govt the correct location for fishing in order not to get arrested, no answer given.
Then the Tsai govt disclosed to allow US pork import. US pork is considered toxic to health. US pork contains Ractopamine, a chemical disallowed in Tw to feed into pigs.
This is how a govt can play its very own people out after being elected.
Singapore has no exception, CECA with some country allowed near to free flow of pmet into singapore. Yet there is requirement for citizens to take up defense and contribute money for national debt in cpf, at increasing rate on their flats for 99 years.
US want to control the S China sea surrounding countries to go against China, as part of Japs ambition to take more territorial waters and lands for fishing and oil drilling. This is obvious. If someone bother to say China split Asean, he shd think that its Asean split by itself on those resources.
China want those resources. Fishing in water that cross over to Asean country border was common. This kind of incidences can never be stopped completely.
If US wants to go war with China, it is likely that within 800km near china missiles, the Carrier would be sunk. The jets on Carrier can only fly 500km range. The PLA knows this.
So its war of words. Will US Carrier dare to risk?
US s problem is logistic supply. USA is not in Asia, far from it. How much can a few Carrier take the thousands of DF21?
All ASEAN (and Japan) has to do, is tell the Yanks: "Thank you for your offer to help. Now please leave us to solve our own regional issues and our own politics."
But they won't. And so the USA has carte blanche to embark on more foreign meddling in the name of "freedom".
This is how the middle east became such a bigger mess than it was. American meddling. They prop up some dictators, who with American backing become much bigger assholes than they're capable of being if left alone. And one day a fella like Osama Bin Laden strikes back with the ultimatum "Get the fuck out of the holy lands. You are propping up corrupt and brutal regimes"
ASEAN (and Japan), are you fuckers asleep at the switch?
The famous native american saying, 'White men have forked tongues'. Will people learn from history?
