Shanmugam's Hard Truth
has anyone noticed the stark contrast between Shanmugam's take on this incident n that of LHL n for that matter the other ministers?...
i give it to Shan for speaking a real hard truth...for something good to come out of this episode...Heng Swee Keat n co. should have the moral courage to follow through on what Shan has said and make this an open issue for discussion in the National Conversation
"This confirms what I had long suspected and said: there are deep fault lines in our society, based on race/religion,
Her comments reflect a deep seated racist attitude coupled with contempt for those who are less well off, or who wish to spend less.
We will be a truly civilised society only when we deep in our hearts accept everyone as equal."
