You should ask the clown, George Yeo. He is the very first legalized "demonstrator" !! Super Wayang cook up by LKY !!

Organized a march to the American embassy to protest against meddling with Singapore affair in 1988. Well, damned any f88king "illegal" activities will become legal after solemn baptizing from LKY.

I also think so. Many of these are engineered by the PAPaya govt to create a false show.

 

[yellow_people]

Dun demonstrate lar. If Sinkees get carried away attempt to overthrow the PAP govt its very likely the PHoles will dwindle drastically in value. Look the FTs will hightail out of here leaving you with a massive oversupply of Pholes.

But then again, old Lee is correct when he wants a 75% Chinkee population coz they are pragmatic and not for the politics of contention.

Having said the above what's the point of having "leegalized" demonstration?

 

[hungary fighter]

to show the world we r democraptic country.....
