I am afraid and sorry to say that Mr Lawrence Wong may be barking up the wrong tree.
In my humble opinion, the issue is not about Racism.
As
I see it, the very urgent issue at hand is about a growing Indian
minority, from 3% to 10% over the last 50 years, exerting its will over
the other races by shouting "Racist, Racist!" at every single
opportunity available.
At the same time, while the Indian
minority is growing at breakneck speed, the Malay minority remained
almost stagnant at about 12% and the Chinese majority dwindled from 84%
to to about 75%. All others increased from 1% to 3%.
The Others
used to be comprised of mainly Eurasians and Europeans but today they
also include Myanmese, Philippinos and Vietnamese.
The rapid
growth of the Indian minority of 10% (or 320,000) of the citizenry
together with the 2.5 million of Permanent Residents and Long-term
Pass-holders, and their families and dependants, (mainly from India, and
mainly under the CECA's unlimitable tickets) add up to 2.82 million!
The Chinese Majority is 75% of 3.2 million citizens, which is 2.4 million.
Compare
2.82 million with 2.4 million, the Chinese has in effect become a
Minority. That is very frightening for the Chinese. That is the real
issue!
So, if people like Mr Wong are still sleeping, and still
talk about giving more leeways to the minority, that has already
achieved the critical mass to overcome and overwhelm the others, then we
are heading for disasters.
Wake up! Before it is too late.
The
other groups are now exerting pressures on the stupid and sleeping
leaders by way of brewing up a storm about Race and Racism and shouting
"Racist! Racist!" whenever it suits their purpose.
Wake Up! For goodnes sake!

What is the percentage of minority MPs in Parliament compared to the percentage of minority composition in the population? Is there outsized minority percentage representation in Parliament? Is this due to the GRC system? One out of 4 candidates represent 25% but the % composition in population is less than 9%.
ReplyDeleteWhen a few extremists, self radicalised, were caught, the govt did not blame the whole community, only the few individuals. They were locked up. End of story.
ReplyDeleteWhy is the govt blaming the whole Chinese community for racism because of a few isolated crackpots?
It looks like the imbeciles are being manipulated by the real racists and now stupidly going on a witch hunt. Racism in Singapore? For goodness sake, use your farking blain.
You are playing into the hands of the real racists that are out to stir shit in Singapore. The majority of the Chinese are NOT racist. There will be individual likes and dislikes for things, but not to the extent of racism when they go out and attack another community physically. If there is any attack, it is attack on the Chinese.
How often did you hear of a Chinese attacking another community? How often did you hear of Chinese being beaten up or abused by other communities?
A swallow does not make a summer.
Don't have to feel guilty collecting millions and doing nothing. It is better to do nothing than to do stupid things to look busy.
ReplyDeleteSomeone does not like the colour of kopi. Racism?
ReplyDeleteSomeone does not like the dog you are walking around. Racism?
Someone does not like the smell of curry. Racism?
Someone does not like pork. Racism?
Just because the racists shout racism, so every silly bugger started to jump up and down and blaming everyone as racist without questioning how true is the allegation.
Think, think, don't act like stupid unthinking idiots and be dragged around by the nose by the racists.
The one that shouted thief could be the thief. Can understand this simple trick or not?
Wong said in any multi-racial society everywhere in the world, it is harder to be a minority than a majority.
ReplyDeleteNonsense!
This is true if one is living in a western racist country. I disagree. It is harder to be a majority than a minority in Singapore. The people that are under constant attack and ridicule are the majority... especially in a stupidity has no cure country.
Singaporeans should be upfront about the “racialised experiences” that various groups feel, and be prepared to have “uncomfortable” and “civilised” discussions.
ReplyDelete“But we should not insist on maximum entitlements and rights for our respective groups; construe every compromise as an injustice that needs to be condemned; or put the worst interpretation on every perceived slight or insensitivity,” Wong said.
If one group were to jostle “aggressively” to assert its identity and rights over others, other groups might also start to jostle back, he added.
Was the exchange by the lecturer in Orchard Road 'civilised' but 'uncomfortable'? If uncomfortable and civilised discussions are encouraged, why sacked the lecturer? Was it political pressure that led to his sacking? Who would dare to engage in uncomfortable and civilised discussion that could lead to sacking?
u r right. Really pity the SP Lecturer he jus express his own opinions & views and was being sacked. Even without giving him a second chance ? What kind of a society is this ? Why have we become like this? It's becoming like intolerance & lacking in Compassion. Is this the society that we want? It's like top down authoritative approach leaving no room for discussion at all. In the future, this little island will be more intolerable & will have many frustrated n fussy at a fast n furious pace.

ReplyDeleteMy Random Thoughts And Concerns For Singapore
The Indian minority, with a hidden majority as a reserve pool under the CECA weapon of mass invasion, is getting bolder and bolder by the days, until it has begun to exert pressure and create troubles for the leaders and other races in Singapore.
What makes the Indian minority become bolder and bolder? Probably because of the following:
1. The lop-sidered number of key and top posts being held by them. This is very unfair and unjustifiable.
2. The Law Ministry and Home Affairs Ministry being held by the same person makes him more powerful the the Prime Minister and the Judiciary. He can easily put the Prime Minister and his family under house arrest if he wish to. This is very worrisome.
3. The CECA Trojan Horse has entered Singapore 15 years ago. By now the hidden invaders have already reached the critical mass required to overcome, overwhelm and overthrow the existing balance of power because they control most of the key sectors of the economy, banking, finance, logistics, security and technology. This is very threatening.
4. By October this year, less than four months from now, Temasek Holdings will hand over command and control to another Indian figure. This move is very suspicious and worrisome, and therefore very unwise.
5. May be the GIC will be handed over to another Indian very soon? If so, this will be the ultimate blow to all our Reserves and our country.
6. It is very strange that the moment Workers' Party secretary-general had been taken over by an Indian, he has been given the title Leader of the Opposition with allowances raised, and given many other perks too. I wonder who was the one behind the scene to have advised the PM in this issue?
7. Why is our PM remaining strangely quiet nowadays and allowing a few other ministers to take the lead in certain important issues and so they have the opportunity to overshadow him or undermine his authority? This is very suspicious.
8. Things at the top are happening very strangely nowadays. Therefore, my very inquisitive mind can't help but has to ask the following questions:
1) Is our PM under any threat or blackmail?
2) Has our PM been compromised in anyway whatsoever? Or,
3. Was he advised by someone to wind down and take it easy, and let some others take the lead?
I hope everything is okay with our PM.
I also hope that Singapore leaders are wise enough to see through the veils and deceptions being put up by certain quarters in our society.
Keeping my fingers crossed that things will be fine after all.
Queen of Hearts.
"It is very strange that the moment Workers' Party secretary-general had been taken over by an Indian, he has been given the title Leader of the Opposition" - ya ! When Low Thia Khiang was leader he was never recognized.
ReplyDeleteAlso India media then were very quick and proud proclaiming Pritam as "Indian-origin" . . as if he's India's . . .
Noticed that usually the incumbents in Trade, Education, Manpower, Finance ministries were rotated around quite regularly, but not in the . . .
ReplyDeleteQueen of Hearts, another good piece to put up next week.
ReplyDeleteThanks, RB.
DeleteThe more I look at the big picture, the more scary it has become.
ReplyDeleteThe people in charge of Singapore's security are sleeping to allow Singapore to end up in the wrong hands?
Is India conducting "influence operations" in Singapore ?
ReplyDeletePlease check your numbers before posting. Go to https://www.population.gov.sg/files/media-centre/publications/pib-2020-final.pdf to verify the numbers. To say there are 2.82 M indians in Singapore is incorrect. There is a difference between resident and non-resident population.
ReplyDeletePlease read carefully.
Delete"The rapid growth of the Indian minority of 10% (or 320,000) of the citizenry together with the 2.5 million of Permanent Residents and Long-term Pass-holders, and their families and dependants, (mainly from India, and mainly under the CECA's unlimitable tickets) add up to 2.82 million!"
1. I did not say 2.82 million are all Indians.
2. 2.5 million of PRs and LTP holders, plus families and dependents (mainly are Indians. Not all are Indians)
3. 320,000 Citizens is 10% of Total Citizens, which is 3.2 million.
4. We should disregard the use of residents and non residents. The term resident population is thrown in to confuse us and deceive us. In fact and in truth, we must use citizens and non-citizens instead.
5. Residents can come and go, whenever they feel like it, and whenever they have the advantages they want. Moreover, there are several types of residents, i.e. long-term, medium-term, short-term and special flexible term.
6. Citizens are lumped together with the residents, which should never be done. Doing so is to hide certain definitive facts from all of us.
7. Residents are not citizens.
8. Citizens should not be called residents but citizens. No two ways about it. Because citizens can also reside in other countries for study, for employment, for healthcare, for retirement and for leisure and pleasure.
In addition, the 2020 statistics is already out of date.
DeleteMy brother is a PR in HK. We still considered him as Singaporean. HK peoples also treated him as foreigners, he can't buy Govt public flat, only can buy or rent private flat. SSO is definitely right. The application of Sunzi tactics of confusion by various Generals on SG citizens is disgusting.
DeleteProof that open-source intelligence analyst from India really exist in Singapore - article was written by Saikiran Kannan in India Today, who was described as a Singapore-based Open-Source Intelligence analyst
ReplyDeleteIntelligence analyst - an intelligence agent ? a spy gathering information ?
ReplyDeleteYes, Intelligence analyst is another term for spy or intelligence agent/operative.
DeleteIf he said he is based in Singapore, that means he is spying on Singapore for his motherland India.
For national security, ISD must now be alerted to arrest him and put him in custody and detention.
One Chinese girl married an Indian, one Chinese man not happy. So it is racism. What about the Chinese girl happily marrying the Indian man? What would you call that
ReplyDeleteWhat about tens of thousands of Chinese girls married Indian men and one Chinese man now happy, racism in the Chinese community? How can there be racism against Indians when thousands of Chinese women and their families accepted the marriage to Indians?
Just because one prick is not happy, please do not accused the whole Chinese community of racism. Fucking idiots.
Only fools are easily misled by the racists to go hunting for Chinese racists and attacking Chinese as racist when there is one or a handful.
Is Singapore going to have a Chinese Inquisition with people arrested and burnt on a stake?
Take screen shots of the "proof" before they delete !
ReplyDeleteSingaporeans are not racists. There has always been harmony between the races on the little red dot. Only in recent years, when rice bowls get broken by the influx of " Foreign Talents ", has started the realisation this feeling of threats. Well you get what you voted for. The next time they throw you a chicken wing, accept it but you must remember the pain when you get into the voting booth.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately every time a racist shouts racist, the imbeciles would respond, yes, get him, get him.
ReplyDeleteImbeciles' stupidity is unbelieveable. Now they are going on a witch hunt, accepting the racists' accusation that Chinese are racists without thinking and demanding the Chinese to be kind and gentle to the racists.
The stupid, the idiots, the traitors and the sleeping leaders must all be voted out in the next GE.
ReplyDeleteNo more deviation.
Must be very serious.
Time is running out. No more time to waste.
Our future is at stake. Those who are not for us are against us. Those against us must be kicked out as fast as possible. We cannot be put at their mercy all the time.
Collectively we can change for the better. We MUST CHANGE. We must take ACTION.
Who Is That Mastermind?
ReplyDeleteNow I can see all the Black chess pieces that have been put in place, slowly but steadily, over the last 10 years.
These are strategic POSITIONS.
They are put there to achieve a strategic purpose - CHECKMATE.
The checkmate on the White King can be easily done with a few more moves.
One of these few more moves has been exposed.
It is the Racist move to create distraction, pressure and tension.
Someone must be the mastermind, over the last 10 years, to have conceived, planned and manoeuvred all these moves behind the scenes, very cleverly and skillfully.
WHO IS THAT MASTERMIND?
Queen of Hearts.
PS:
Instead of carrying out a witch-hunt for the Chinese Majority as racists, I think we should be hunting for that Mastermind!
The last piece is to remove the PM.
ReplyDeleteMy Devil's Workshop At Work:
ReplyDeleteThey have manoeuvred to have a non-Chinese President and they succeeded to put an Indian by birth on the pedestal masquarading as a Malay by using a few selected persons to form a temporary committee to transform her into a Malay. This strategic move was to make our PM looked bad.
Another strategic move was to put an Indian as Chief Justice.
Another strategic move was to put two Indians to control the Monetary Authority of Singapore from the top.
Another strategic move was to put two more Indians to control DBS.
Even the AGC and the Law Society are being run by Indians.
The most significant strategic move was to drive a wedge between the siblings and made them fight over the house that Harry built at 38 Oxley Rise. This resulted in knocking out potential future contestants for the PM post. This strategic move was also to make our PM looked bad.
There is even an Indian Minister in the PMO. All these years, there have never been an Indian Minister in the PMO.
The coming move is to put one Indian to control Temasek Holdings. This has already been announced.
Very soon they will manoeuvre to put an Indian as the Prime. In fact, it has already started..
Once there is an Indian PM and an Indian Opposition Leader, both ruling the party and the main opposition party will be controlled by the Indians.
After that, the Defence Minister and the NTUC Chief will be replaced by an Indian or a Bayi. That's for sure.
Then the purge will begun. They will purge the Chinese from all key political positions and replace them with Indians.
Then the whole master plan is accomplished.
There is also a Indian Minister of State in Ministry of Defence and Ministry of Trade and Industry.
ReplyDeleteCorrection: Sorry. The MOS in MINDEF is a Malay, not Indian.
ReplyDeleteTheir audacious demands are mind boggling !
ReplyDeleteThey are now demanding the Premiership !
ReplyDeleteThey said and still saying that they do not want to make Singapore a 3rd China.
ReplyDeleteBut they are turning Singapore into the 5th India.
The 2nd India is Bangladesh and the 3rd India is Sri Lanka.
The 4th India is Sikkim.
The 5th India is Singapore.
A district court heard on Thursday (Jun 24) that a man who used racist language in harassing two women on separate occasions is planning on pleading guilty on Jul 27 to the charges against him.
ReplyDeleteFifty-two-year-old Periyanayagam Appavoo faces two counts of harassment and one count of using criminal force on a man.
Neither the accused nor his victims’ nationalities have been made public. WHY?
Why hide such vital information from the public? We want to know whether they are Singapore citizens or foreigners.

ReplyDeleteThey are now demanding the Premiership !
Someone thinks he is in charge and planning who should be the next PM. Did he know that others are also planning who should be the next PM behind his back? The question is when they are going to put the next PM in office, during his watch or after his watch.
This is where the fate of Singapore, especially the Chinese majority, would be decided.
Would the Chinese majority becomes a minority and outcast in Singapore?
Singaporeans better pray that PM Lee lives forever. He could be the last Chinese PM in Singapore.
ReplyDeleteMany singaporean are discriminated by foreigner minorities in work places and deprived of good jobs. How much government protect singaporean? Government has guts deal with MNCs (e.g. UBS, Morgan Stanley, big four accounting firms, etc) or only GLCs or government invested foreign companies like standard chartered bank?
ReplyDeleteOnly few discrimination cases against minorities which are not even directly racism intended, government jump out make big issues out of it and doing hard to protect them.
If government does not prevent foreigner (especially India nationals) discrimination against singaporean in employment market, the racial tensions is going to explode eventually.
India nationals after coming out of prison can still work and live in Singapore! Is this offered to Malaysian and PRCs or they are repatriated immediately?
ReplyDeleteThere is no ban of flights coming from India even the virus is a lot more contagious and poisonous. Was China flights banned last year and Malaysia-Singapore border closed last year?
After the little India riots, why banned kopitiam selling alcohol after 10pm make Singaporean suffer and pay for the crimes commited by India nationals.
Why nowadays (last 8 months) I don't see India national crime news especially molest cases on the Straits Times instead I find it on yahoo news?
Why investigate that lady for racism when she can't tolerante daily incense smell and bell ringing from Indian neighbour? Did she hurl racism words towards him?
Why not maintain population ratio but only Indian (out of the 3 majorities) population goes up?
Why overwhelming jobs in IT, banking, construction, shipbuilding go to India nationals, at least among foreigners?
Have we looked at how the west, India and Indonesia and Malaysia treat the miniorites? Miniorites killed due to racism is happening from time to time in the west and India (the North East state Mongoloid Indians).
ReplyDeleteIs singapore too Kind to minorities that the miniorites have taken advantage of it.
We can be kind to miniorites but not to overdo it.
About non Chinese PM, can you guarantee an Indian PM will not Indianise Singapore (like in Nepal) that forces many Singaporean Chinese to migrate. Having seen what happen at work place, I have no confident.
"Why is the govt blaming the whole Chinese community for racism because of a few isolated crackpots?"
ReplyDeleteThe guy (lecturer at poly?) doesn't like Indians to go after Chinese girls? Did he hurl racist words towards that person?
The Chinese neighbour hit the gong to retiareate the Indian neighbour for burning incense and ringing bell which I suppose every day and she didn't hurl racist words? She probably being annoyed having to deal with the noise and smell on daily basis perhaps twice a day. I hope she got a fair investigation from the police. I myself have no choice have to bear with the thick insense smell every day and twice per day in weekends.
THE Most serious racism (based on number of cases) could be Singaporean Chinese being discriminated in Singapore Employment market? How many qualified Singaporean Chinese not able to find job or take very long time to find one? How many of Singaporean Chinese interviewed by India national hiring managers, and how many being offered job?
ReplyDeleteI am very keen to find out. I myself hardly have India national hiring manager interviewers given the sector I am in dominated by them.
Ask our taxi uncles how many times they are insulted by the North Indians?
ReplyDeleteHow many out of such is considered racism.
Often I feel sg government is too pro FTs/foreigners and not doing enough to protect our Singaporean.
Wait a minute... why need to protect Singaporean in Singapore when we are the hosts and Singaporean Chinese are majority citizens? Is it very sad?
I remember one taxi driver told me he quit shipbuilding supervisor role because each time he scolds the idling indian workers (being lazy, don't want to work) , the Indian workers threaten to report abuse to management.
