Another magazine that they will try to bankrupt. Remember Far East economic review?

I'd very much like to see LHL try to do that. It'd be so much more exciting.

In addition to being sued, Far Easter Economic Review was also gazetted by Sinkie government. I'd like to see LHL gazette the online edition of The Economist :smile:

They have gazetted the Economist before - it didn't kill the Economist, and it won't kill them now. The Economist is more important for Singapore than vice versa.

The next step will be international reporters asking LHL about this case whenever he travels overseas (esp for high profile meetings/conferences) -and also that of the Toa Payoh 5 to come.

Now the jack is out of the box-its impossible to close it down

oh I didn't know the gazette was there. Utter madness. How did they even achieve first world status? Is it that easy now? China next?

Totally agree.

LHL should fire his current PR team. Such lousy strategies from cheapo PR firms.

The client is only as good as his consultants.
If he buys the consultants' advice, then he is to be blamed.
In other words, if the client is an idiot, no world class PR company can save him.

By the way, any idea who he uses? Will be interesting to know

A couple of months back, it was announced that Janandas Devan was appointed Chief Communications Officer or something but he has been very quiet.
That in itself was a stupid appointment because Janandas may be a good writer but marketing communications is a totally different ball game.
But then again, maybe his advice keeps getting being rejected.
There doesn't seem to be some focal point for making government pronouncements.

If that is true, LHL is truly fucked.... npt that it is a bad thing.

PR is all about positioning and public impressions. It is also about who you know in the media world, especially in the international arena. What would a writer know about that?

Maybe Janadas is taking revenge for what LKY did to his parents.
