I find the latest outburst from MM Lee Kwan Yew on IBA cute after this hullaballoo reported in Wall Street Journal.
IBA was Go(o)d to him when he brought it up to Chee Soon Juan in the defamation case. Now it seems IBA is the devil who would do Singapore in! IBA is jealous of Singapore because Singapore is a good example to Russia and China and the Russians and Chinese are coming here to learn from Singapore instead from the liberal West and IBA is jealous?
I don't get it.
I thought I was dumb so I ask my friends who's got multi degrees - honour, master, doctorate, what they thought. They also can't understand what MM is talking about!
The guy who came up with "Stop at 2" is now looking at Swedish method to have more than 2? What goes around really comes around! In answering the Japanese participant at the Nomura Asia Equity Forum, he said, 'If Japan wants to be part of this globalised world, Japan will have to accept these changes,' he said. 'There's no way you can remain...in a group where you can speak to each other not in words but in grunts.' Boy, Singaporeans are so luck that we speak in words!
The grandma of my grand daughter asked me when we gathered last Sunday, "If another PAP crony takes over Lee Hsien Loong's PM job, what would Lee Kwan Yew's new title be?" I was going like, "Well, then LHL will be Senior Minister; Goh Chok Tong will be Minister Mentor and Lee Kwan Yew will be Minister . . Hell? . . . . . . How would I know?"
When the chit-chat touched on the Lee family's control of Temasek and GIC and their Ah Long job in Europe and USA, GreatGrandma had this to say, " Gia lim bin eh kar-chng peh choh bin peh, mai ho how lian!" which literally means, "Don't show off if they have to take the skin of citizens' posteriors to act as the skin on their face!" which actually means, "There's nothing great in making use of public money as if it's Lee's own money."
Wow, I guess Ah Chor (Great Grand) in her 80's now knows much about politics in SinCity. She's been there
, seen it and is telling it like it is!
