Donald Trump twitted about his meeting with Hsien Loong by calling him
Prime Minister Loong. For other Prime Minister or ministers to be
misunderstood is quite understandable. Didn’t Trump know that his famous
father is Prime Minister Yew? Oops, I mean Prime Minister Lee. And the
son cannot be Prime Minister Loong but Prime Minister Lee. Is Trump
another hillbilly?
Some Singaporeans tried to explain this stupidity or ignorance to Trump
by adding in their two cents worth of stupidity. They told Trump that
Hsien Loong’s last name is Lee. What? What is that? When was Hsien
Loong’s last name Lee? Are they telling Trump that Hsien Loong’s name is
Hsien Loong Lee?
For goodness sake, Lee is the first name of Hsien Loong and the first
name is the family name. The western convention of first name and last
name do not have the same meaning as a Chinese name. The Chinese write
their family name first. Their second and last names are their
individual name. The last name of a Chinese is not his family name,
stupid. Of course this may be true if he is a banana and wrote his name
as Banana Tan or Papaya Lee.
There is no need to change the convention of how a Chinese name is
written to fit into the western convention. Any westerner that has met
up with a Chinese would know the difference, or at the most make the
mistake once. It is not that hard to understand this little cultural
difference. No need super intelligence to know this.
By the way, President Donald, did you get it? It is Prime Minister Lee.
Don’t you remember his father used to visit the US and even addressed
the two Houses? And his name, Lee… Kuan Yew. Please don’t tell Hsien
Loong that you have met Prime Minister Yew, his father. It is not very
nice. George Bush Jr could do better than that. Trump could not be
pretending that he is another George Bush right?

Who were those who told Trump his last name is Lee? If they are Americans, understandable.
If they are locals, they must have eaten too much of Western bananas and become 'kay ang mo'.
But why did he or they not call China's President Xi Jinping as Ping or Vladimir Putin as Vladimir?
Perhaps that's how the master called his poodles? Maybe Trump ought to pat him on his head as well. No big only small!
Loony brought disgrace to Sinkieland. Instead of creating jobs for the Sinkies unemployed Loony went to the UaSs & create 70000 jobs for them ...POTUS Duuno Triumph is right to called the Sinkieland PeeAyam as Loony as it reminds him of Disneyland's Loony Tunes --"what's up Loony ( means what's up Dude?)"...what a joke?..
Loong means Loony Tunes just like me Donald Trump.
Cheers
Poodles must help it's master. Otherwise how can America be great again. It is all part of the deal.
All poodles going to Washington are not there just to say hello to their master. They have their secret agenda that even the MSM cannot know.
We only know the 'Loony Tunes' and talk cock sing song part.
I wonder did Trump address China Xi Jinping as President Jinping?
I think that is how his Father addressed him as Loong so trump just wanted to be less formal and wanted to be close to Loong. As for buying the plane, not that sinkies can produce plane that SIA needed as even China also buy from USA for civil aviation. Otherwise buy from Airbus that SIA also bought. It's also another white man plane bo Bian one.
Call him PM L00ng.
Not bad! Nice! Nice! I like it
Yam Seng L00ng!
The old man may have called him Loong. But he is the father.
I am sure LHL's children would not call him Loong as well. That will be 'no big no small' style of the West, much like Loong calling his father 'Yew'.
It is all a question of how much respect is to be accorded to the man, by addressing him correctly.
Sometimes it is not the man himself who feels offended. It is his country and people. Try doing that to the Thai King.
PM Loong congratulated Abe for his Election Victory.
We shall cooperate on Defence. Abe gonna revised the Pacific Constitution and invade other countries.
What you expected from the blood of Descendants who worked with the Japanese.
Want to send our Sons to fight ISIS. Now in league with Japan.
How China gonna trust you.
Sneaky smiles.
This man said in a US forum he would not finish his term after the coming GE. Trump might also be gone. Only Abe stays to deal with Kim Jong Un and Xi JP. Sinkies dreams to be Syunan to rebuild the East Prosperity Sphere will not happen. Mattis in Phillippines tried to pull asean to US side was considered failed as he said finally some countries used money to advance geo political relations. Tilleson blasted China in India was a success to pull India to its side: to have drills with India, Aust, US Japan etc in India ocean to counter One route One belt call.
Sinkieland is trying hard to fit into the conflicts. Trump used all his strength to shake the dragon son s hand signaled he likes that man. Congras to sinkieland. Trump likes your leader to listen to his new plan to contain China, to the disappointment of many on the island. Will sinkieland ended up getting nuclear bomb instead? Similar to South Korea and Japan?
When Trump called Singapore "loyal friend", there's a tinge of master-dog relationship. To say a friend is loyal implies subservience.
A dog is a man's best friend.
HEllo anonymous 10.42am
Trump called S loyal friend.
Xi called S what?..........
What say u?
@anon 11.09am
All Chinese China knows that Little Red Dot can't be trusted.
They r 101& sure that Sinkieland is not a friend of China. They wouldn't mind to label Sinkieland as Betrayal or 走狗！ (running dogs of UaSsA for sure!)
Donald got his name wrong ... should have called him PM Asshole.
Redneck hillbilly meets Asshole ... they deserve each other.
Xi announced new team: sinkiesland s leaders will have new friends or strangers, except one visited sinkieland last year, all are new besides Xi and Li. Wang yang might be included from old timers.
Since being called a "Dishourable Son", he seems to bring shame and disgrace to Singapore, everywhere he goes. Even locally, he has made the Parliament into a personal court of white-washing machine, and the Elected Presidency into a laughing stock, that no world leaders would have done, even dictators like Idi Amin and Pol Pot.
Loony should step down soonest for the good of Singapore. He is now a disgrace internationally.
@1.00pm
If step down now.......and Mr Tahan takes over....,....
The STI will be up up up....or down down down?
What do you think?
Sg should become a state of the most powerful country. People dream of having a house and a car can become true instead of surviving like a cow or pig. It will be good for the most powerful country since it can send ships over without any complaints. Its a win win.
Sinkies can also have a president that have to fight hard and win votes and not everything being served on a platter.
Dishonorable son has no backbone, went with a us$13.8bln cheque. Squeezed citizens, bootlicked Trump. Bootlickers you master is following after you. Congrats!
Trump would never understand Loong.
Trump goes for "jobs for Americans, make American great again".
Then he had a visit from a fawning PM of a tiny city state with a USD13.8 Billion ( SGD18.8 billion) gift basket to generate 70,000 good jobs for Americans but none for his own countrymen.
Trump would find it strange, that this PM can get reelected every general election since he became PM in 2004 when the tiny city state's total population was 4.167 million jumping to 5.61 million in 2017, as the fellow let in more than 1.4 million foreigners to cannibalize jobs from Singaporeans, while the surge in population culminated in a huge water price hike of 30% and a freeze of car population scheduled February 2018.
Singapore's total population of 5.61 million as at Aug 25, 2016 is made up of two main groups: residents and non-residents. Within our total population, around 7 in 10 are residents – of which 6 are Singapore citizens and 1 is a PR.
0.7 of 5.61 million is 3.927 million residents comprising PRs and Sinkies.
6/7 of 3.927 million = 3.366 million Sinkies.
Since PRs are foreigners, 5.61 million minus 3.366 million Sinkies = 2.244 million foreigners in Singapore!!
That's a ratio of 2 foreigners to 3 Sinkies.

Good post. Many will agree with you. A pm creating jobs for foreigners, while demanding citizens to do defense so called NS paying far less than surviving salary is respected as pm. Trump working hard and Xi working hard for their own citizens did not get so much salary like the small country pm. Trump only asked for $1 dollar.
There is no country in this world can compare to sinkieland. Pm works for foreigners to create jobs, generate CPF for them to go home while he and his gangs short pay the citizens in defense and short change citizens who need jobs to pay for their own families expenses and their old folks. This kind of pm and gangs are respected by their positions as pm and ministers. If Trump s kind of pm or Xi kind of pm is on sinkieland, it would be heaven on earth for sinkies.
Sinkies are short changed for no valid reasons because those foreigners are unrelated to them or the pm and their gangs. It was done out of foolishness and non valid reason to help foreigners to get jobs on sinkieland on the expense of citizens born on sinkieland. Can citizens and voters comprehend how crazy is the pm and his gangs.
hi 658pm & 450pm
all said and done.........
70% still voted for his party........
what is actually happening........
not only Trump can't understand, others tooooooooooooo........
Singapore! Singapore! Singapore!
@6.58pm
Sinkieland AhGuaLoon is crazy to BUY DUNO TRUMP over so that AhGua can have ticket to economic-defense Safe Arms of the Americunts. AhGua maybe thinking when he can get Trump on his side then everybody in this world will listen to him & do what he says...a sort of a Mandate of AhGua that he got that UaSs endorsement that Chao AhGua is great again! See how power crazy AhGua is, an Insane & Power Crazy can't lead a tiny city & telling whole world that he can lead in some sampan into sinking abyss..
