Wong Kan Seng Again?


What does it take to change the essence of a man?

Just what does it take to change the essence of those great men in PAP?

Where does the buck stops?

How many more screw-ups do we need before the buck stops?

I'm sure most know the Hokkien translation of Wong Kan Seng. However, I do wish the Home Affairs Minister would not fudge first before he goes blaming his subordinates again for the latest joke at the Immigration Department at Changi Airport.

We do not have corruption in Singapore.
We do not have nepotism in Singapore.
It's meritocracy, stupid!

I do not know think Singaporeans are stupid but the joke is wearing a little thin. Does having the right relationship plays a role in job security and million dollars salary? Or is the wisdom and genius in Singapore found only in one family, their relatives and their cronies?

Do we need a disaster like a suicide bomber killing some in Singapore before someone stands up to take responsibility for the lapse and complacency that's become a never ending joke in Singapore?

Do we need demonstrations (like we see in Thailand, Indonesia and even Malaysia) in Singapore before they realise that there's a right time to do the right thing? To be accountable, be honourable and to have the dignity to bite the bullet and do the right thing?

Will we get more hubris & fudge from the chosen few and listen to their thick-skinned rhetorics to justify the incompetence of The Incompetent?

Or will we see the man-in-waiting (ex-lawyer) waits no more and plays the part of The Main Man in Home Team?

Since Mas selamat jalan, the Wayang has moved to 5* rating especially with the transcripts and audios of the trial of Belinda Ang and this Passport Joke.

Life in Singapore can still be fun if we know how to lighten up with the Wayang that never cease to amaze :)

The transcripts of the defamation trial are available at http://singaporerebel.blogspot.com/

The audio files may be heard and downloaded from:

I beg to differ.

It is good to keep him in the parliament so as to remind all Singaporeans of how we will not survive without these million dollar supermen who are beyond reproach. Let the ST and mediacorp keep up the hubris and let the PAP continue to believe in this hubris.
When the end of PAP comes, it will be sweeter for all. Keeping him in Parliament can only be good for the opposition parties.
