Majority of Singaporeans want strong laws against fake news?

In response, ruling party politician Edwin Tong rubbished Mr Paine’s claims and said that the Government is “confident that there is broad and deep support among an overwhelming majority of Singaporeans for laws to tackle online falsehoods.”
Asserting that “the overwhelming majority of Singaporeans want strong laws to deal with online falsehoods” and that only a small group is “crying wolf” over the bill, he said: “Crying wolf repeatedly gets no attention.”

He added: “The Government is confident that most Singaporeans understand the Bill’s main thrust. The concerted attempts by a small group of persons to mislead have not got any traction among most Singaporeans.
“The small group of persons I have referred to, speak in a shrinking echo chamber, with increasing shrillness. Some take refuge in alarmist language (including comparisons with nuclear wars) in desperate attempts to get attention.”

Netizens on social media have disputed this claim and have asked Mr Tong to prove his claim that an “overwhelming majority” of Singaporeans want strong legislation against fake news.
Asserting that the Government should have called for a national referendum if the people’s views on fake news legislation really mattered, Singaporeans called Mr Tong’s claims “fake news”:

I also conducted a survey and found the majority of Singaporeans want PAP to rule forever. They even said it is ok to live under a dictator as long as the prices of their HDB flats would only go up and never come down and their money in their CPF would always be there.

Some of you may disagree with my survey results, it is alright. You can also conduct your own survey to discredit my survey. One question I would like to ask, how many of you think that the above surveys,  my survey and the one saying the majority of the people want strong laws against fake news are fake news?

Oh, you can also make a survey on how many people love to continue to have more foreigners coming and to boost the population to 10m and to boost our economic growth, and how many people would love to pay higher prices for water and electricity. I am sure many Singaporeans would love to have 10m population and would also love to pay and pay for water and electricity. It all depends on who you talk to. Tiok boh?

When I ask the devil about doing evil things, the devil would say that is a good thing and he loves doing evil things.

US Criminal Acts In Assassinations,Coups & Regime Change -

The Evil Empire has since the last one hundred years or so interfered and intervened in more than seventy countries internal affairs causing great destructions, deaths, assassinations and frequently forced regime change of political leaders who refused to toe US dictates.

US carries out its diabolical acts via its terrorist arm, the CIA. The operandi of CIA includes infiltration into the targetted countries administrations especially in the military with spies and fifth columns. Then its propaganda machine will come into full swing to demonise the leader of the targetted country for regime change. It will fund the opposition and assassinate the leader who is opposed to US imperialism. It will use both overt and covert means to cause the target country's economy to crumble and destroy its financial system. CIA will covertly take over the mass media to advance its insidious propaganda viz the newspapers, journals, TV and radio stations to change public opinion and push anti government propaganda. Many of the foreign journalists and reporters in the unsuspecting third world countries are US fifth columns under CIA's payroll.

Next CIA will help the opposition to create choas in the target country , creating social tension via street protests and demonstrations. Ultimately with the help of CIA the treacherous US backed opposition traitors will take over the government and country. Henceforth the Evil Empire will be able to exploit the target country of all its wealth via control of its natural and mineral resources.. At the same time the Evil Empire will than acquire or appropriate some ports and key area for its military bases and thus tighten a firm grip on the country forcing it to become a subservient US colony or semi-colony as seen in the case of Saudi Arabia, Jordan Iraq, Ukraine, Colombia and South Korea.

In 1953 the democratically elected prime minister Mossadegh of Iran was overthrown by CIA in a military coup because he wanted to nationalize a British-American owned oil company. The coup restored the pro US Shah to absolute dictatorial power. The Shah ruled Iran for 25 years with utter and brutal repression and torture. The oil industry was restored to the British and the Americans in which each owned 40 percent while the remaining 20 percent was given to the Shah

In 1956 - 1958 Eisenhower pronounced his insidious doctrine that no country would be allowed to dominate over the Middle East and its oil fields except the United States

The US twice tried to overthrow the Syrian government and carried out many military maneuvers in the Mediterranean to intimidate countries opposed to US supported governments in Jordan and Lebanon. US posted about twenty thousand troops in Lebanon and carried out several attempts to overthrow and assassinate President Nasser of Egypt whose Middle-East nationalism was opposed by America.

President Sukarno the founding father of Indonesia was a nationalist whom the US would not accept because he was neutral in the Cold War and was friendly to Russia and China. He nationalized many companies owned by the Dutch the former colonial power in Indonesia. He allowed the Indonesia communist party to take part in elections in which it made massive gains electorally in a legal and peaceful way. The evil empire couldn't accept this and looked at the whole thing with jaundiced eyes.

CIA then planned a strategy to overthrow Sukarno's government. CIA threw in a lot of money in support of pro US opposition parties and plotted Sukarno's assassination.

They infiltrated into the Indonesian military organisation and joined forces with dissident military officers to wage a full scale war against Sukarno's government including bombing missions by American pilots. Fortunately Sukarno survived all the assassination attempts.

However the Americans were very persistent in trying to get rid of Sukarno and replace him with a pro US traitor. They found such a vile character in the despicable General Suharto who was a senior commander in Sukarno's military.

In 1965 CIA staged a complex series of events in many coups and counter coups resulting in the ouster of Sukarno from power and replacing him with the highly corrupted treacherous General Suharto. The Indonesian military under Suharto's command was very closely allied to the US military.

Soon the most bizarre mass massacre of millions of Indonesians directed by CIA was to take place. CIA supplied Suharto with a long list of names of Indonesians whom CIA claimed to be communists, communist sympathizers, suspected communists or suspected communist sympathizers.. Then in collusion with CIA Suharto carried out an immediate massacre which turned out to be one of the most savage mass killings in modern political history. The total numbers massacred could be as high as over two million of which about one million was claimed to be Indonesians of Chinese ethnic race.

It was the US embassy which compiled the lists of communists from top echelons to village cadres which then handed over the lists to the staunchly pro America Suharto's army. Suharto and his army then hunted those persons down and killed them. The Americans would then check off the names of those who had been killed by Suharto's operation.

One US diplomat boasted that without the United States help to Suharto's army, Suharto would not have been able to kill so many people and that he and many of his fellow American officers probably too had a lot of blood in their hands. He further boasted that it was not at all a bad thing as the Americans had to strike hard at a crucial moment.

It must be observed that the evil empire in order to maintain its power and hegemony have no qualms in killing millions of innocent lives and worst still they relish in such psychopathic killings.

One of the countries that suffered the most under the evil empire's interference and intervention is China. The next article will reveal how treacherous America betrayed China.

Garden on bus tops

'When I read this article about plants on top of buses, my immediate reaction was – what a bad idea. It will never work. It will take too much maintenence.

My common sense tells me that a better idea is to put solar panel on top of the buses. To keep the bus cool, it should be possible to have a cushion of air below the solar panel and the top of the buses. This works like a cladding to an office building. '

This was posted by Tan Kin Lian in the TRE.

A bad idea? Come on, this is excellent idea. Only exceptionally clever  Singaporean thinkers can come up with such brilliant and worthy idea. Next, the follow up, would be to rear goats or chickens on top of bus tops, or have a little garden on every bus. Then instead of Garden City, they could rename it Rolling Garden City, and the whole world would fly here to see the Jewel and Rolling Gardens on bus tops.

And this is not the end, they will likely follow up to submit to UN World Heritage Board to accept this as our unique culture or idea, something better than those head kosong countries everyday trying to get themselves into the Guinness Book of Records.

The ultimate idea along this kind of thinking is to have a garden on the head of every Singaporean. Imagine what the creative mind of Singaporeans would take this idea to, flower heads, coconut heads,....The foreigners might not buy the idea, but daft Singaporeans would. Everything new is novel and worthy of doing, except serious stuff.

I dunno whether we have progressed or digressed with this kind of flirtatious dreams to be great, to achieve greatness, or stupid attention because there is nothing else better to do.

What do you think?

A trade deal that is NOT a trade deal

The collapse of the US China trade negotiation is expected. After several months of negotiation, after all the hypes about how good the deal was, how close they were to a deal, it finally broke down. The Americans thought they had the Chinese fooled, that the Chinese were idiots and did not know they were being dragged into a shit hole of Unequal Treaty of the 21^st Century by the Americans.

The truth is that the Chinese knew exactly what the Americans were doing and were playing along giving the impression that all was well. And finally when they saw it right to scuttle the nonsensical negotiation, they did the necessary.

The trade negotiation was not about trade, not about buying how much soya beans or American products. It was about American supremacy and how the Americans wanted to treat China as a colony or as a state of the USA. The top agenda was about changing the Chinese economic system. The Americans demanded that China must dismantle all the state owned enterprises, let the enterprises run like American enterprises, free from the state.

According to Bannon, state owned enterprises with state control, state capitalism are bad and China must changed these to the American way of running their economy. The change is good for China and China would benefit and win the economic war. But China is winning the economic war with state owned enterprises and this Chinese economic model is good for China. And this is exactly the opposite in the US when their so called free model is losing. Now why would China want to change its winning formula? Why would China allow the Americans to dictate how it should run its economy and economy system?

Further, the Americans want the Chinese to amend its laws to protect American companies in China, stop state subsidies to state owned enterprises, pay the Chinese workers like American workers, calling Chinese workers as slave workers. They did not know that a Chinese worker can have a meal with two small pieces of meat and rice as against an American worker that needs a pound of meat for each meal. They cannot see the difference in the lifestyle of a Chinese workers and his needs and those of American workers and their needs. By the way, state subsidies is not subsidies per se. It is still added cost to the products, the money must come from somewhere, it is not free money. China cannot continue to subsidise its state owned enterprises without breaking its own piggy banks. It is productivity that matters.

They wanted American companies to operate in China and free from Chinese control and do what they want. They want to enter Chinese market and make their monies and no technology transfer. They accused China of forcing the companies to give up their technologies. The companies can always go elsewhere, no need to go to China, no need to share or be forced to share their technology.

Worse, they told the Chinese to stop Made in China 2025, ie China cannot pursue technological advancement to be better than the Americans. Can you believe it?

Basically the trade negotiation was never about trade but about changing the Chinese economic and political system, that China must be a democracy like the Americans, and also to suppress China from becoming an advanced technology country.

Why would China want to let the Americans to dictate what and how it should manage its economy and enterprises? The Americans were interfering in the domestic affairs and laws of China. And they expect the Chinese to say yes and agree with an Unequal Treaty where the Americans make all the demands and the Chinese must comply?

The few trade related matters include China buying American produces at American prices, eg soya beans, meat and poultry and at huge volumes in excess of what China needs, thus killing Chinese farmers and meat producers. 

The Americans also demanded China to buy in monetary terms, US$200b of American products, products that the Americans want to sell but the Chinese do not need, but not high tech products that the Chinese want but the Americans did not want to sell.

The trade negotiation was in all ways a political memorandum which the Chinese should surrender their national sovereignty to the Americans, an Unequal Treaty imposed on the Chinese in the 21^st Century.  In no ways would China agree and accept such a roguish and one sided agreement against their national interest. The trade negotiation is certain to fail until and unless the Americans are willing to negotiate a trade deal on equal basis. Until then, all the time and resources over the last few months are as good as wasted, a non starter.

The Chinese want a trade deal, the Americans want a political agreement to be the master of China.  In the words of Bannon, it is an armistice, a surrender document to acknowledge the US as the Empire and China as a colony.  Fail it should be.

Top CIA analyst: Israel partisans push US to war

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Whov7hJmR8M

A revelation of what was going on in Washington and how they planned to

destabilise the Arab states to keep them hapless, poor and dysfunctional.

Do the Arabs and Muslims want to know the truth about the evil Americans

planning their destruction as a civilisation, as nation states, as people,

as human beans?

Sarin gas in Syria was a big lie, John Kerry lied. It was a false flag used

to justify attack on Syria.

This short clip revealed how the Jews manipulated and controlled the American govt to do their bidding, to keep the Arabs in a perpetual state of warfare, unending war so that Israel can live in peace and not disturb by the Arabs while the Arabs destroy and kill each other.
