upon reflection, may i share the following:
VB preached himself happy ... The part on Vasoo, purely casual and 'along the way by the way'?
maybe, maybe not.
Good device to test: if no hoo haa from establishment, yes, another small pushing back of OB markers;
But in this instance, the Pavlov reaction from the Estab: cease & decease, do the following or else be sued!
Is anyone seriously surprised?
so, pioneered by alex au accidentally and now lock stock barrel reused by VW : say sorry, take down, retract, tell FB posters to delete comments.... Whatever you say Sir! :-)
Did he lose credibility as some suggest here?
Personally I dun think so, in fact sinkies cannot appreciate impractical martyrs.
But they can understand 'lan lan seow seow bo pian' and instead will reinforce their bitterness at the MIW's legalistic recourse habit.
Now the threat to sue is itself a reflexive bait MIW will bite and have to bite, going by Old Man's 'Not to sue is tacit acquescience' belief.
If they are that damn righteous, no need ask for apology go ahead to sue the pants off the 'slanderer' ! but it is not happening.
So either way, MIW is on the losing end.
The Trophy to win is out there - in the Court of Public Opinion where the tussle is on for the hearts and minds of the electorate ( national conversation as well )
Each side is trying to use all at their disposal : MSM, Reach, PA on one side and social media, blogs, NGOs on the other.
I am bemused witnessing the finesse and nimbleness of the active participants in the field, or the lackof.
ok ok to be fair, in varying degrees, there is something for all to learn
