This topic is about what Tan Kin Lian posted in the TRE, how to educate Singaporeans in critical thinking. I could not see the relevance of what Tan Kin Lian said about ad hominem attacks, constructive criticism and assertion without evidence and the education of Singaporeans to think critically. Instead of wasting time trying explain and dismiss what Tan Kin Lian wrote, I will try to assist him in what he set out to do, to educate Singaporeans.
One very easy thing for Singaporeans to do to develop critical thinking is to read the main media. The main media is the best media to educate Singaporeans into how to think critically. Do not waste time reading the social media, especially blogs like mysingaporenews. Only main media teach readers how to think critically without thinking or without having to think. By reading their content would be enough to develop critical thinking.
The evidence can be found in social media like in mysingaporenews when those who are exposed to the main media and presumably are thinking critically and post their comments here like PAP is the best govt, CECA is best for Singapore, CPF is not your money etc etc
These people who made their comments here are best remembered and recognised for their repetition of their critical thinking skills. And it is wrong for some readers here to want to sodomise them for expressing their skills in critical thinking. I bet they learn everything from the main media, the only media in Singapore that said nothing but the truth and nothing but the truth.
People spending time reading social media for free should spend some money buying main media and get an education in critical thinking.
What do you think? Oops, people here are not supposed to be able to think. If they can they would spend money on the good stuff, the main media. Good stuff don't come free. You have to pay to read the good stuff in the main media.
Below is from a post by Phillip Ang in TRE. My question is that does it make you think...critically?
Nothing wrong with management of CPF but government needs to delete annual reports from website?
CPF used to publish all annual reports since 2002.
Today, after Singaporeans have been enlightened by Roy on what could possibly turn out to be the mother of all scams, the earliest report available online is the 2013 annual report....
What is CPF attempting to conceal for PAP?
Besides annual reports, CPF has been busy deleting other information, eg older publication of 'CPF Trends' which provide statistical analysis....
It is not known why CPF should be concealing so much information which belongs in the public domain.

CIA Evil Plots and Clandestines Activities To Undermine Governments For Regime Change.
The Evil Empire has since its independence in 1775, adopted a set pattern of Modus Operandi to undermine foreign or other governments for regime change and for occupying and annexing other countries. Using these bellicose principles they had destroyed all the self-governing native American states and incorporated them into the United States of America. The did that to Mexico and subsequently annexed more than One million Six Hundred And Sixty-Five Thousand square miles of Mexican lands. Then after that it did the same to Hawaii in 1898 and formally annexed it in 1957.
Using the same Modus Operandi they did it to many Central and South American countries, to Middle East Arab countries, to Afghanistan and South East Asian countries. They failed in their attempt to undermine China in the failed Tiananmen riot in 1989 and a few times in Hong Kong in the Umbrella riots .
The CIA is The United States terrorist organisation . All its clandestine and subversive activities against other countries can be traced back to Washington, to the White House, Senate and Congress.
The CIA Modus Operandi patterns are as followss.
1. Funding the Opposition
2. Assassination: Assassinate presidents and leaders who are unfriendly to the United States.
3. Destroying the economy or Economic Assasination to impoverish countries so as to cost social unrest and upheavals
4. Media Takeover : Taking over of newspapers, journals, tabloids and TVs to carry out insidious propaganda and indoctrination for subversion.
5. Creating Choas: Instigate and foment riots and public disorder to overturn governments which are unfriendly to US or which refuse to toe US dictates.
6. Exploiting Religious differences and ethnicity to divide and rule
7. Using NGOs ( Non-Government Organisations ) to infiltrate, influence and interfere in local politics and internal affairs of other countries to carry out regime change.
8. Using their Christian religious doctrine , 'The Doctrine of Christian Discovery' to justify their violence, terrorists acts and wars of aggression.
9. Using their insidious bellicose doctrines to satisfy and empower them to carry out their wanton acts of aggression and domination and hegemony via The Doctrine of American Manifest Destiny, The Doctrine of American Essentialism and Exceptionalism.
10. The Jewish American Paul Wolfowitz doctrine of Neo-Conservative Foreign Policy - such as in Foreign Policy - Low tolerance for diplomacy, readiness to use military force and an emphasis on US unilateral action. American Foreign Policy under the control of American Jews is the source of all evils in this world.
10. Using subterfuge
Use of subterfuge to undermine other countries peace and security.
The CIA had applied all these various principles successfully in taking down many countries in all parts of the world. In 1953 in Iran, it overthrew the democratically elected legitimate government of Presidennt Mossadegh and replace him with the Shah, a pro US tyrannical despot. In 1973 CIA overthrew Salvador Allende the socialist president of Chile and replaced him with Pinochet, a brutal pro US dictator who killed over three hundred thousand left wing Chileans. CIA also overthrew the democratically elected socialist government of the Sardinistras in Nicaragua in the 1980s and replaced it with the murderous pro US Contras.
In 1963 in Indonesia CIA infiltrated into the administration of President Sukarno especially in the military and successfully carried out a military coup in 1965 with US funded and supported pro US army General Suharto installed as president. Under CIA's plod and guidance Suharto killed and murdered almost three million left wing Indonesians.
In 1970 CIA carried out an unsuccessful military coup against Prince Norodom Sihanouk of Cambodia and tried to replace Sihanouk with traitor General Lon Nol as president. Lon Nol was on CIA's payroll until his death in California in 1985.
In similar way the Evil Empire via its terrorist arm the CIA overthrew the governments of Yugoslavia in 1998, Saddam Hussein of Iraq in 2003 and Muammar Quaddafi of Libya in 2011. The traitor who ganged up with America to overthrow Saddam Hussein of Iraq was one Ahmad Chalabi, who is now a minister in the US military rule of Iraq and is still on CIA's payroll. In Libya the traitor who worked with CIA to overthrow Qaddafi was General Khalifa Haftar who is now installed as the ruler and warlord of Eastern Libya. Haftar is still on CIA's payroll.
Last year 2018 CIA tried to carry out a regime change of the democratically elected legitimate government of President Nicholas Maduro of Venezuela but failed miserably because Maduro had the mass support of more than eighty percent of the Venezuelans as well as strong support from Russia and China.
Recently it tried to use clandestine activities and subterfuge to destabilise the Philippines to overthrow President Duterde, but failed.
But now in Hong Kong , the Evil Empire via CIA.s use of NGOs had successfully infiltrated and indoctrinated the thousands of faceless Hongkies to riot against the Hong Kong government so as to undermine the peace and prosperity of China. Some of the notorious traitors and ringleaders of the riotors are found in the high places of the legal profession, the university and other institutions of higher learnings and other high administrative posts including a substantial numbers of riff-raffs in society. A few examples can be found in Martin Lee, a lawyer, Benny Tai also a lawyer, Audrey Yuet-mee, Ray Wong and Edward Leung . Most of them have been meeting US anti-China legislators and Congress personnels like Pelopsi and Marco Rubio. All these traitors organisations are funded by CIA and each and everyone of them are on CIA's payroll. China should forbid all CIA's NGOs in China and stop all their clandestine activitives and use of subterfuge to undermine China's peace and security. All traitors and ringleaders should be arrested and despatched off forthwith immediately without any hesitation. The law must take its course and violent riotors must be shown no mercy. They must be arrested and imprisoned and if necessary face the death penalty.
CIA is the world's biggest and most horrendous terrorist organisation . The world should clamour for the United Nations Organisation to take action against the United States and get rid of CIA forever for the peace and security of mankind on earth.

Hong Kong’s days are numbered
The current insanity in Hong Kong’s youth taken to the street to
challenge the authority has reached a point of no return. It is only
days to a declaration of a state of emergency in Hong Kong and the
island be locked down. Blood may spill on the streets if this is so
desired by the Hongkongers. Hong Kong is dispensable and so are
Hongkongers. They are just a tiny blip in the big scheme of things in
China.
In 1983, Margaret Thatcher visited China to talk to Deng Xiaoping about the return of Hong Kong after the 150 year lease expired. Actually she was there to talk about not returning Hong Kong to China and wanted to continue to occupy and rule Hong Kong under the British Empire. She threatened Deng about disorder and demonstration on the streets of Hong Kong if China insisted on taking over Hong Kong. She even threatened to use force.
Deng Xiaoping told her national sovereignty was not negotiable and China would take the disorder in her stride. If Hong Kong would be ruined, so be it. Deng gave Thatcher an ultimatum, two years of talks and if both sides could not reach an agreement, China would take unilateral decision to take over Hong Kong. Deng also threatened to take Hong Kong before 1997, saying China could take Hong Kong the same day if China wanted to.
The Hongkongers today have forgotten this message of Deng Xiaoping, that Hong Kong is an integral part of China, not a British colony, and would not be separated. The current public demonstration and defiance of law and order would be put down, by force if necessary. This is rioting and lawlessness. The Hongkongers must not have the idea that China would allow them to run wild and destabilize the country.
Xi Jinping would have to decide to act very soon. The G20 is over, the nonsense must stop before it gets out of hand. If blood has to be shed, it would be done. Hong Kong could be shut down from the rest of the world for weeks, for months, and the rest of China would go on as normal. China can afford to let Hong Kong die and rebuild Hong Kong from the ashes, minus the pro British and anti China elements. They can be locked up for good or allowed to migrate to Britain or anywhere of their own choosing.
The unthinking youths of Hong Kong would have to pay the price for their follies.

Digital Industry, jobs go to who?
I refer to the news that a new Digital Industry Singapore Office
(DISG) was launched by the PAP government as it looks forward to work
better with the private sector to unlock the opportunities in a
so-called “digital as usual age”, including the creation of 10,000 new
jobs within the technology sector....
I have no doubt in my mind that digitalisation of our economy is the right thing to pursue. However, my main concern about this whole digital efforts centres on jobs creation. Minister Iswaran talked about the estimated 10,000 new jobs within the technology industry being created but he fell far short of saying whether those 10,000 new and better paying jobs will largely benefit Singaporeans (or not).
I ask what is so great about this scheme if those thousands and thousands of new jobs being created once again go to foreigners from overseas because of a mismatch of skills, education, training and/or experience of our own Singaporean job seekers, resulting in more and more Singaporeans ending up as Grab drivers even when our job seekers are not uneducated or IT illiterate....
Simon Lim
The above is posted by Simon Lim in TRE. I share his concern that most of the jobs may go to foreigners especially to Indians from India under CECA.
What do you think, 10% goes to Singaporeans and 90% to foreigners?
Below are two comments posted in TRE in this article showing how the people are anticipating what would gonna be the outcome. These Singaporeans are reading such initiatives with a lot of fear, scepticism and distrust of the govt. Can the got blame the people for their misgivings? Would the govt want to prove otherwise? Or would the govt care how it would impact the Singaporeans or how the Singaporeans feel about this?

Many former PMEs lost their decent jobs to the fake FTs dumped here by Lee Ah Long.
Meanwhile,their savings are being consumed by the HIGH COL here.
Becos many cannot qualify for social assistance due to the TYPE OF HOUSING they live in,many become impoverished.
To make things worse,the GREEDY N INCONSIDERATE SQUANDERING LEE AH LONG N HIS MONKEYS suck our CPF by scheming like CPF LIFE etc while allowing GENERAL COST OF LIVING to escalate.
This govt is UNFIT FOR DUTY N they know it.
Thus,besides having existing advantages like GRC N A CIVIL SERVICE READY TO DO ITS BIDDING,they come out with FAKE NEWS LAW to *POW CHIAK* any sg who criticises them especially aimed at good oppo sgs.
Sgs must wake up or be the cause of their own *desperation* by and by.

10,000 is a number that exists only for aliens FTs PRs.
10,000 is a number that does not exist for local born 70% sheep.
remember the 2 casinos and the same pap Lj who said thousands of jobs? today June 2019 no a single pap Lj or pap Cb dare to tell 70% sheep how many local born 70% sheep are employed by the 2 casinos versus total number employed by the 2 casinos.
WHY?
because 94.7% are aliens FTs PRs, and 5.3% are local born 70% sheep.

Tourism boost in Malaysia
The progressive Malaysian govt has come up with something that would put Singapore to shame. While Singapore is still hardcore in condemning drug taking and with capital punishment as a deterrent, Malaysia is going to allow drug taking in small amount as acceptable, not a crime. Now this must be music to the ears of all the drug addicts in Singapore. Taking a cue from the progressive West is always a good and easy thing. The West did it, so must be OK.
Below is a report in Yahoo News on this drug taking in small amount as a new way of life. Oh, drug trafficking is still a serious offence. But taking sikit sikit is ok, just a disease and just try to cure them by allowing them to take sikit sikit, should not pose any problem, not drug addiction.
Singaporeans can be expected to swarm into Malaysia once this new progressive law is introduced. Just take sikit sikit would be nice. Can do is publicly, hold sikit sikit drug parties in Malaysia, and take them in style and in comfort. No need to think of going to Canada or some western cities far far away. Now it can be done across the Causeway. It is a game changer.
My only fear is that when tourism money starts to flow into Malaysia because of this, some 'pragmatic' aka money minded politicians would say hey, let's do the same. How can Malaysia be more progressive than us, we are a world city and this is the in thing, everyone is doing it and very good also for bringing in more wildlife here, oops, I mean rich and affluent foreigners to spend their money here. More oomphs and vibrancy in this dull city.
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) — Malaysia's government plans to drop criminal penalties for the possession and use of drugs in small quantities to battle addiction, but stressed the move is not akin to legalizing narcotics.
Malaysia has one of the world's harshest penalties for drug possession. Anyone found with 200 grams (7.05 ounces) of cannabis, 1 kilogram (2.2 pounds) of opium, 40 grams (1.41 ounces) of cocaine, and 15 grams (0.53 ounces) of heroin or morphine face being charged with drug trafficking, which carries the death penalty.
More than 1,200 prisoners are on death row, most of them convicted of drug crimes.
Health Minister Dzulkefly Ahmad said in a statement Thursday that the proposal for the decriminalization of drug addiction will be a significant game changer. He said drug addiction is a complex, relapsing medical condition and throwing an addict into jail will not cure them.
"Drug decriminalization will indeed be a critical next step toward achieving a rational drug policy that puts science and public health before punishment and incarceration," Dzulkefly said. "An addict shall be treated as a patient, not as a criminal, whose addiction is a disease we would like to cure."
He said the move mustn't be mistaken as legalizing drugs as drug trafficking will remain a crime....
