Very racist and mischievous reporting by India’s TV media


‘Sun TV released a TV Tamil news about the Little India riot on Mon (9 Dec) at 7pm, saying that Indian foreign workers were attacked by Chinese Singaporeans. And that the person who died in the accident was pushed off from the bus by the female bus driver. (Can you believe that you can have this kind of lies being reported as truth? This is my comment.)

The news was later put on youtube – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ql6gWTc_Dn4 and went viral on the Net instantly.


Currently, the video has been removed but not before netizens translated it:



The above is posted in TRE. See how mischievous and racist people can be to resort to this kind of contorted reporting and fabrication of the truth? This kind of reporting cannot be taken lightly and a small apology be accepted and case closed. The damage has been done and many would have their pea brains filled with hatred against Singapore and Chinese. Only racist and sly people would do such a thing to incite hatred and violence against the Chinese here. And it also has world wide consequences as racists would jump on it and may attack Chinese in other countries, notably in India where hatred for Chinese is quite severe. Just read their media and you will understand.

The Singapore govt must get to the bottom of this report, to find out who filed this, or is it a fabrication of Sun TV and its editorial stuff. And if there is really so much hatred for Chinese in India, the Singapore govt must review the CECA and its policies on recruiting more Indians into the island. If it is the work of an individual or a few individuals, they must be exposed.

Singaporean Chinese have so often been attacked erroneously as racists by racists in Singapore for things they have not done or have no intent of being racists. The Singapore govt needs to erase this anti Chinese thoughts among the slimy and racists disguising themselves as the innocents and using every false excuse to label the Chinese here as racists. This mischievous thought and line of thinking must not be swept under the carpet. We cannot become their silent victims.

Conduct a thorough investigation and flush out the culprits. Singaporean Chinese must stop being silly and allow others to put such a racist tag on them without resisting. If this is repeated long enough, the lie will be believed and the innocents and other races would believe that it is true.

How on earth would some fuckers file such a slanderous and insidious report to Sun TV and why the station was so happy and ready to put it on air? Daft Sinkies don’t even know that they have been sodomised. They don’t even know how they die. There is a conspiracy to tarnish the Chinese as very bad people, to put them on the defensive by this kind of wild attacks and misinformation. Be on your guard against such bigotry and lies.

Irresponsible news reporting from The Wall Street Journal - Asia

Singapore Riot Signals Foreign-Labor Strains
Hundreds of Workers From South Asia Protest Killing of Indian Man

This is the most irresponsible headline to come from The Wall Street Journal – Asia online on Dec 9. A drunk worker died in a traffic accident is not the same as the killing of an Indian man. How could such a reputable news media make such a sensational and irresponsible reporting? What is the intent of the media for reporting it this way? What is the govt going to do about this?

Which cock talking about xenophobia?

Why are people talking about xenophobia after the rioting in Little India? It was a traffic accident caused by a drunk foreign worker. Period. And who got beaten up, the local bus driver and the woman bus assistant. And the follow up, police officers and medical personnel and civil defence officers got beaten and pelted with stones by the foreign workers. And ambulance and police cars were overturned.
 

And not a single local got involved in any brawl or attacking the rioting foreigners who set several vehicles ablaze. And the police were so restrained that not a single shot was fired, no water cannon, no beating up of the foreigners even when their officers were beaten and bleeding.
 

What the fuck is this xenophobia talk? It is foreigners rioting and attacking the locals and police because of a traffic accident. Assholes should stop talking through their asses. There is no xenophobia. If there is, it is xenophobia by foreigners against the locals.

Mob rules in Thailand

Thailand is dumping democracy into the Chao Phraya River. This is the third popularly elected govt that has been forced by undemocratic forces to step down and wanting to install a non elected and undemocratic govt in its place. Where are the western champions of democracy? Where is the USA? Are they going to stand by the side of a democratically elected govt? Or they are playing dumb as it is not in their interest to protect a democratically elected govt but a mob? The silence is extremely loud.
 

Yingluck and Thaksin were both elected by the people of Thailand but forced to dissolve their govt by undemocratic forces. Now Yingluck is calling for another general election but this is also turned down by the undemocratic forces and the power behind these forces. Where is Thailand heading to, an autocratic state, a pure monarchy, or a military regime?
 

The prophecy that there would not be another king in Thailand may come true when these forces are allowed to destroy Thai democracy. The Thai monarchy may go along as a collateral to the sweeping changes in Thai politics. The majority of the Thais are outside Bangkok and they could be forced into a general uprising against Bangkok and bring down the ruling elite supported by the military. When that happens, a Republic of Thailand minus the monarch could be next on the card.
 

Thailand may want to dump democracy but democracy shall triumph instead. And when that happens, what kind of Thailand would survive the rout? Would Thailand do away with the monarchy to fulfill the prophecy? It is looking like history will take its natural course to allow the monarchy to alienate itself from the people and bring its own destruction. The only little authority and revere left in the monarchy will go when the big tree falls.
 

Thaksin and Yingluck will outlive the big tree and will return in triumph, possibly after a period of turmoil and unrest and revolt in the kingdom. The tyranny of the minority will not lust.

Stop the insanity

People are hurt, the foreign workers, PRs and our citizens, including law enforcing officers. One foreign worker died. The rioting may be uncalled for. But what do you expect from a mob that behaved exactly like a mob? And it is normal! Why are Sinkies crying about. It is only abnormal to daft Sinkies. If you came from the same place you will shrug it off and walk away. Still it is insane to Sinkies that a fatal traffic accident could lead to street riot. It is insane that police cars and ambulance were over turned and burnt when they were there to help and had nothing to do with the death of the foreign worker. It is normal, get it?

Stop the insanity! Stop the biggest insanity of all insanities, the influx of several hundred thousands of foreign workers and allowing them to be at the same place at the same time and drinking to get drunk. The insanity is not the rioting or the rioters. The insanity is the people that allowed all these forces to come together, like Kan Seng said, a confluence of forces that led to this ugly rioting. The insanity is that they did not even think it will happen. It is normal, get it?

Stephen Hawkings confirmed the theory of the Big Bang. We had our Big Bang. Is it not big enough? Is it just an isolated incident and all because of alcohol? It would not happen again if we stop selling liquor, have more police patrol, have better traffic control. Holy shit! How daft are these people?

When Stephen Hawkings confirmed the Theory of the Big Bang, that the universe started by a big bang, everyone was so happy. See, he had proven the origins of the universe with science. But that was not the beginning of the universe that what people would like to believe. Stephen Hawkings went one step further. He theorised that in order to have a big bang, a bang that is to powerful to explode and created a universe of infinite size, there must be a concentration of energy huge enough to create the big bang. This energy must be there before the big bang can go bang.

The riot can only happen when the forces of insanity are there in the first place. These forces of insanity, like the forces that caused the big bang, are not desired to be known. No one wants to believe that this insanity is the cause of the riot, or like the confluence of forces resulting in the big bang.

The COI is not going to tell you about this insanity. It is something that no one would want to speak about. Stop this insanity if you do not want to see a bigger bang after this. Stop the insanity.

Oops, the wise will say 6.9m is ok and 8m will be better. Who doesn’t know that? But remember, it is a choice, to want to go down that road. And the choice must reside with the citizens that are going to live through it. The govt is there to govt. Yes, but don’t forget, you are not the govt. You are the elected govt for a term. You can be booted out in the next GE. You are just an ELECTED govt!

TRE scores on live reporting of the riot

While the media was still reporting the PAP convention and the new resolution, while the PAP leaders were making their war cries, the rioting had already started. And citizen journalists were everywhere covering the incident, not knowing the danger they were exposed to, and video recording the violence on site. And all they had were their mobile phones. And these little gadgets proved so worthy of their invention. And they downloaded the videos and information into TRE instantly to share. They are giving CNN and Fox News a run of the money in live coverage of the rioting in Little India.
 

Wow, this is a big feather on the hat of TRE. The whole world must be tuned in to TRE for the latest reports. The viewership must have hit a new high.
 

Well done TRE. You have done it. No need expensive professional reporters. The reports and videos were just what the people wanted to see. No need any verification or clarification, no need editorial approval. They were straight from the scene, the real stuff.
 

You want to read what was happening from the main media, wait till tomorrow morning. The power and influence of social media are unmatched by snail news.

Chiam See Tong speaks

He has been quiet for quite some time probably due to his senior years. I think after listening to the PAP’s convention war cry, he really ‘buay song’ and has to say something. And this is a bit of what he said and posted in TRE.
 

‘Today, Minister Chan Chun Sing said that the PAP will “do battle everywhere as necessary” and not concede physical and cyber space to get their message across.
I’m not sure if I’m the only one who thinks this sounds like government propaganda. We live in a democratic nation, and I hope the government knows and respects that. Already, our press standards and rankings are among the lowest globally.
 

I do not understand why the PAP wants to fight dissenting voices, since the voices come from the voters….’
 

Speaking our against govt policies that hurt the people is the right of the people, just like freedom of speech. This is fundamental to a democracy. So, what is the PAP going to fight, to quarrel with the people, to prove that they are right, doing the right thing?
 

The kpkb by the people is only symptomic and not the sickness. The noise is a sign that the people are unhappy and not the problem. The problem is in the policies. Won’t it be better for the PAP to address the real source of the kpkb, get the policies right, and the kpkb will go away? Trying to argue with the people can go on and on until the face turn green. And if the policies are not changed, and if the people don’t agree, it would be a big waste of time and resources. Minister’s time is not cheap ya. Use the time wisely to do good for the people and all things will turn out good. Instead of kpkb, it will be praises and admiration.
 

Better go and read Sun Tsu again and see what the strategist had to say about fighting your own shadows.
