In response to media queries on the Global Times website article “Lee Hsien Loong: China could gain Diaoyu Islands but lose its international standing” dated 21 August 2013, the MFA Spokesman said:

The Global Times website article on Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong's remarks at the 19th Nikkei International Conference on the Future of Asia is inaccurate and misleading. Using a sensationalist headline, the article took Prime Minister Lee's comments completely out of context and grossly distorted and misreported what he said. Such unprofessional reporting is unhelpful and could harm bilateral relations and affect people-to-people ties.

Always LHL and PAP right, media wrong

He was reported making the following statement.

And certainly, if they are taking a long-term approach, they will make this calculation that whether it is the Senkakus, whether it is the South China Sea, what you gain on the Senkakus or the South China Sea, but you lose in terms of your broader reputation and standing in the world, you have to make that calculation very carefully. So I will be very careful about saying, ‘let us make a friendship amongst all the countries which are frightened of China’. I do not think that is a constructive and helpful approach.


Notice he used the term 'Senkakus' which is a disputed island between china and Japan. It rather unprofessional and undiplomatic of him to do so because this signal that he recognized Japan ownership of the disputed Island. I am starting to wonder if he knows what he is saying . It no wonder he offended China. The more diplomatic way to handle it is to refer the disputed island as Diaoyu/Senkakus combined to show impartiality.

Google cache of article here.

Like father like son, both fond of running their mouths about other countries. :rolleyes:

I pity the MFA employees who had to do damage control for Pinky, wipe his backside after he took a shit.

Why did LHL feel it necessary to comment about Senkakus:confused:

Why look for trouble when you are just a civil servant from a tiny insignificant red dot:rolleyes:
