Are intangible ethos important or GDP numbers?

“In a troubled world, few societies can devote themselves to such intangible ideals, much less act upon them. But here in Singapore, thanks to the heroic efforts of several generations, we can all realistically aspire to live by these values, and turn our vision into reality.”  Lee Hsien Loong

I am pondering over this statement by Hsien Loong in his latest new year message. He acknowledged that the effort and wisdom of several generations of Singaporeans have led us to what we are today. No doubt Singaporeans have come a long way to this state of affluence and hopefully this will continue to go the way of future Singaporeans. We are still having good times and living in prosperity, with some more prosperous and some less prosperous, and a few being left behind, fallen through the cracks. The latter is unavoidable but could be managed more carefully and could be avoided if there is a determined will to do so. We have the money and resources to do it. (I hope so).

How long would our good fortune last? With the influx of wildlife with different mentality and cultures, many inferior, being forced into our midst, would the new mix of Singaporeans be better off than before, to  toughen our will to succeed? Or will the high content of wildlife dilute and weaken the social fabric of Singaporeans and our social ethos? The idiots do not think so, the main reason why they are importing so many without any worries, just to boost up the GDP to justify for the million dollar salaries and high bonuses.

It is very difficult to build to what we have today, like how many families built their fortunes over generations. But it is so easy to destroy everything in one generation or by the irresponsible appearance of a prodigal son. Would Singapore be destroyed by one generation of stupidity of its leaders? We have yet to witness how Singapore would turn out in another few decades ahead and all everyone is saying is that what this govt is doing is good. Really?

The glory of an Empire would burn its last flame, the last flicker could be the brightest, before being snuffed out forever. No empires could see the making of their last days as bad, thinking they were doing their best and everything was right, and the empire would last forever in their good hands. The British Empire in Singapore could not believe that they would be overrun by the Japanese within a few days. The Americans could not believe that they are no longer the uncontested and unchallenged Number One Empire today and are furiously and desperately clinging to their glories for a few more years before being eclipsed for good.

Are we seeing the last few good years of Singapore before the curtain falls? When there are so many wrongs being ignored and even insisted as good, the days of reckoning are near. The moment of death is usually preceded by a few moments of life as if the dying has recovered. The American Empire is in this state of health under Trump, looking like it is great again but could be in its last gasp before the end.

Whither Singapore and Singaporeans?

The stupidity of Arabs is unmatchable

BAGHDAD: Iraqi Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi on Monday (Dec 30) condemned US air strikes on bases of Iranian-backed Iraqi militia, a move that could plunge Iraq further into the heart of a proxy conflict between the United States and Iran.

The US military carried out air strikes on Sunday against the Kataib Hezbollah militia in response to the killing of a US civilian contractor in a rocket attack on an Iraqi military base, officials said.

"The prime minister described the American attack on the Iraqi armed forces as an unacceptable vicious assault that will have dangerous consequences," his office said.

The air strikes will force Iraq to reconsider working with the US-led international coalition against Islamic State, the National Security Council said in a statement.


Iraq's foreign ministry said it would summon the US ambassador in Baghdad to voice Baghdad's disapproval....

"After so many attacks it was important for the president to direct our armed forces to respond in a way that the Iranian regime will understand," US special representative for Iran Brian Hook said in a news briefing.
Iran denies involvement in attacks on US forces and has condemned the air raids as "terrorism".
"This claim without any evidence cannot justify bombing and killing people in violation of international law," Iranian government spokesman Ali Rabiei said.

The above is quoted from a CNA report and reflects the stupidity of the Arabs beyond words. The Iraqis got the cheek to condemn the American attacks on Iranian supported militia in their country? Did they know that their country was invaded by the Americans, their leader Saddam Hussein killed by the Americans and the Americans are still occupying their country as a colony of the American Empire? Why are they not protesting and still stupidly cooperating with the Americans?

And as usual, the so called killing of a US civilian contractor aka American hired gun, was not the work of the Iranians but just a fake excuse by the Americans to launch the attack. What else is new?

The only thing new would be for the stupid Arabs to wake up from their stupidity and know who are their real enemies and start to fight to free their country from foreign aggression and occupation. would this ever happen? Not for another thousand years if the Arabs continue to be conned and lied by the Americans and to think the Americans are there to help them.

The Americans have been sowing discord among the Arabs, killing them, invaded their countries, turning their countries into war zones and helping the Israelis to kill them and taking Arab lands for several decades. The Arabs did not know, cannot see the truth!

Why all the madness in raising taxes, prices and fees

It was announced that the electricity tariffs will increase by 3.5% to 24.24 cents per kwh starting from tomorrow onward. This makes tariffs the highest since December 2014.

SP Group said that the increase is largely due to “higher energy cost compared with the previous quarter”. What is bizarre is that Singapore is overproducing electricity energy.

Realistically, when there is an over supply while demand remains constant, prices should go down. But we have a government that wants to charging higher Tariffs!?

This is not the only area affecting Singaporeans: Public transport fares are at their highest level! GST is inching higher by 28.5%! Yet the salaries of average Singaporeans depressed by opening an inflow flood of cheap labour?

Prabu Ramachandran

The above is posted in TRE. Ask a simple question, why the mad rush to raise prices, taxes and fees?

The answer, no need to think, no need to look further. Don't listen to those idiots that claimed that higher prices or fees are meant to be a lesson on thriftiness. Don't be conned by those that claimed that higher taxes and fares and prices are to help the poor.

The answer, can it be that the govt is short of money? Can it be that there is a big big hole that needs to cover up? If not, why is the govt so desperate in collecting more money? A lot of billions or trillions in the reserves? You believe that? If the govt has so much money, why so desperate to raise taxes and prices and fee and fares? I think, maybe on paper should be like that but in reality the money in hand does not match the money on paper. So die die must raise taxes, increase fees and prices...to collect more money to fill up the big hole.  What do you think?

I can't think of any better answer. Paying millions in bonuses to ministers does not need so much money. As some joker had said, only a plate of char kway teow will be enough to pay for all the million dollars in bonuses. There is something more serious than meets the eyes.

Below is Lim Tean's comment on a post by Philip Ang in TRE. Who is spreading fake news?

'SP group has announced another 3.5% electricity tariff hike for Q1 2020, bringing the tariff to the highest in 5 years! They issued a bare statement yesterday saying energy costs had increased to justify the tariff hike but no details were given.

To say that both the SP group and the EMA owe Singaporeans a substantial explanation how energy costs have increased would be an understatement! Why Are Electricity Tariffs Rising To A 5 Year
High When LNG Prices Have Plummeted 43%?

Read this brilliant analysis by Phillip Ang which will make your blood boil:'

Taiwan is Chinese sovereign territory. It brooks no outside interference especially the US

          Taiwan is an integral part of China. It is part of the Chinese Fujian province. Taiwan issue is China's internal affairs. It brooks no interference from outsiders. If the evil empire, US insists on interfering in Taiwan it will be digging its own grave, for China will make sure to make it pay a deadly price. The evil empire has been interfering with Chinese internal affairs for decades even ever since before the Second World War. It's high time the United States stops its nuisance and provocations or else it will be digging its own graves.

In 1905, Japan took away Taiwan and Liu Chiu Dao or Okinawa as called by the Japanese when China lost the Sino-Japanese war. However, Taiwan was legally returned to China by the United Nations Organisation after the Second World War.

A Chinese Civil War then broke out between the Chinese Communist Party under Chairman Mao Tse-tung and the Kuomintang under Chiang Kai-Shek, a USA lackey, fifth column  and running dog. The civil war lasted from 1946 to mid 1949 when the Kuomintang lost the war and fled to Taiwan with the help of the Americans.China could have liberated Taiwan had not the Evil Empire, USA interfered in the civil war by stationing its Seventh Fleet across the Straits of Taiwan to prevent China from taking Taiwan. Thus through its interference the evil empire was able to stop the ultimate consummation of unification of Taiwan with mainland China. The evil empire then turned Taiwan into a US protectorate territory to prevent China from taking back its own island. However, China is determined to liberate Taiwan sooner or later to bring back the island in unity with the motherland.

In the meantime since 1949, the US had imposed a highly corrupted pro US servile government which had betrayed the Chinese people's interests and sold out the pride and dignity and self-respect of the Chinese people.

After the death of Doctor Sun Yat Sen in 1925,  the Kuomintang under Chiang Kai Shek then  ruled China from 1925 until 1949 when he lost the civil war to Chairman Mao Tse-tung. Chiang was an  extremely corrupted president who practised nepotism and cronyism. He and his big circle of families and friends colluded with the Americans to rob China of all its wealth and resources. Being a brainless peanut president he was deceived by Russia's Stalin to sign away the Chinese province of Outer Mongolia in 1946 which included Tannu Tuva a rich part of Outer Mongolia rich in diamonds,gold and other mineral resources. Tannu Tuva was then detached from Outer Mongolia and annexed by Russia in the same year.

During the Sino-Japanese war 1934 to 1945, instead of fighting and attacking the Japanese he was advised by his American military advisers to concentrate on fighting and attacking the Chinese communists which they claimed post a greater danger than the Japanese. Though Chiang spent huge sums of money ( loan from United States ) buying lots of American weapons he still could not win the civil war because the Chinese people were disillusioned with the Kuomintang and did not support him. In fact eventually most of his generals and soldiers deserted him and crossed over with all their weapons to join the communists to fight against the Japanese. If Chiang and his Kuomintang were to continue to rule, China would definitely be lost and the Chinese people would have been held in perpetual bondage either under the American or the Russian imperialist rule as we see what happened to Korea today.

At present the leader of Taiwan is Tsai Ing-wen a highly shameless spinster and treacherous creature, a devilish woman without character. honour, self-respect and dignity. For her own self-interests she had betrayed China, her ancestry, the self-respect and dignity of the Chinese people. She and her cohort of American lackeys and running dogs in the DPP have no shame when they collude with the evil white American racists and supremacists to run down China and undermine the interests of China and all Chinese people. She and her rogue gangsters in DPP like to echo the white American and western hype on democracy and human rights. They seem not to know that when the White Americans and the West talk about democracy they mean non white people and countries must listen to them and obey their orders and when they talk about human rights it mean they reserve the rights to demonize you, to bully you and rule over you in absolute hegemony. In short white American imperialists and European imperialists want to rule and be masters of all mankind forever. It is a wet dream in which China and the rest of the non white countries in this world would never allow.

For almost two hundred years since the 1830s China and the Chinese people have been gravely humiliated by the western imperialist countries, Russia, Japan, Germany and US included. They not only outrageously trampled on Chinese self-respect and dignity but went on to carve up Chinese territories and incorporated these territories into their empires. In this manner England took large chunks of Chinese land and incorporated them into British India, Russia occupied large swathes of Chinese land of over three million square miles north of the Heilongjiang River up to the Pacific coast and annexed them to Russia, Germany occupied the province of Shantung and Japan took Taiwan and Liu Chiu Dao which they renamed as Okinawa. For over a hundred and fifty years they turned China into  semi-colonial territories of England, Russia, Japan, Germany and America. Instead of feeling outrageous against these western and Japanese robbers of Chinese land and help China to regain her pride,self-respect and dignity by bringing Taiwan back into the mother land's fold these shameless cohort of Taiwanese Chinese in the DPP led by Tsai Ing-wen collude with the United States to separate Taiwan from China under the dubious slogan of democracy for an independent Taiwan. Taiwan which is an integral part of the Chinese Fujian province is a sacred Chinese sovereign territory and it must eventually be united with the motherland, by force if necessary.

When Taiwan rejoins China in unity there will be peace and prosperity for the Chinese nation. This will put an end to the days when the United States and the West can harm and divide all Chinese people. A united Chinese nation not only brings peace and prosperity but also regain the self-respect and dignity of all Chinese people both in China and overseas.

Recently the riots and terrorism in Hong Kong was instigated, organized, supported and funded by the US and UK with the insidious evil objective to influence the Taiwan presidential election due on Januuary,11th, 2020. Tsai Ing-wen and her DPP party collude with US to arouse and foment immense fear out of the riots and turmoil in Hong Kong and use it to portray China as a threat for the democracy of Taiwan and to leverage it on the Taiwanese Chinese to reject the One Country two Systems unification with China. Tsai Ing-wen and the DPP with the help of their American masters are spinning fake narratives and wild toxic propaganda against China for their own self-interests and selfish ends and they hope the Taiwanese electorate will just follow them blindly.

The Taiwanese people are after all Chinese people whether they like it or not. Taiwan is a legal part of China as recognised by the United Nations Organisation and the whole world. The United States still have a colonial mentality and wants to think of Taiwan as its protectorate. Tsai Ing-wen and her likes like to think they are Japanese or American subjects and wave Japanese or American flags. But the reality is that the Taiwanese are Chinese and their ancestors are mainland Chinese from Fujian province and neighbouring Kwangtung province.

Should Tsai Ing-wen and the DPP dare to tread down the illusive road of independence that will be an extreme provocation against China and suicidal for Taiwan. China would prefer peace and not to fight with anyone or get involved in an armed conflict with any one less so with Taiwan. But China will not flinch  and will fight if she is compelled to and will not run away. The United States, a rogue state and international gangster and ruffian is actually a coward forever goading and pushing others in the front line to fight its proxy wars while it watched at a distance reaping rich profits selling arms to its proxy fighting allies. Only this time round China will make sure the war will be brought to mainland America to destroy the evil empire via ICBMs and nuclear armed submarines.

Technically speaking the Chinese civil war has not ended . For this the evil empire hopes to rekindle the Chinese civil war to serve its overall strategy of containing China's rise and peaceful development. All right thinking Chinese people must unite to build up a very strong, rich and powerful China and help to destroy the demonic United States, the evil menace in this world.

China - How to become Number One

This video is a good example of how China, a country invaded, conquered, looted, bankrupted and destroyed by foreign forces, could become a new economic powerhouse in a short 40 years of opening up to the world. China did not become rich and powerful by invasion, by conquest, by stealing, by cheating, by looting or by slavery.

China has become Number One by pure hard work and determination to succeed, from a poverty and agrarian based ancient economy, it is now the most advanced economy in the world, challenging the Americans for world leadership in many fields of science, engineering and technology.

As long as the Chinese are willing to work hard at it, China is unstoppable to lead the world in the 21st Century.

Happy New Year everyone. Welcome to the new Century of Peace and Cooperation under a new leadership in Asia, not one muddled with wars and invasion, threats and economic sanctions and blackmails under the American Empire and western regimes.
