Re: ‎*JUST IN* NTUC has sacked staffer Amy Cheong

When are they going to fire the guy who said this...



and this...

That's what happened to the 6 personnels including the Ambassador to Libya. They thought they can depend on the security guards but they run away when their brothas attack the colonial Ang Mohs.

bro in sg malays aren't discrimnated. the comments by amy were done on the spur of the moment and does not represent the majority view. the fact of the matter is some m&ds think they can bully and push chinese ppl around and its also a fact that m&ds discriminate chinese in mudland for eg.

Also discrimination is discrimination period. All of us are individuals regardless of the race we are in. Why should a chinese somehow not suffer as much as a malay when he gets discriminated or racially insulted? He did not choose to be born chinese. He isn't bros with all the other chinese. He is his own individual with his own life.

You know what pisses me off when ppl make a -ve stereotype about malays for eg and say not all malays are like that. For some odd reason the ppl that defend that have no problems -ve stereotyping chinese. I have observed this numerous times.

There would be no fault if she had simply said she was annoyed about Malay void deck weddings. What was offensive was her subsequent remarks about the weddings costing $50 and leading to higher divorce rates. It becomes discrimination when you extrapolate events to generic and baseless stereotyping.

Citation please. Which Malay or Indian has got away with racist remarks thus far?

For what? When did I say that?

If you want examples, the internet is littered with examples of racist remarks. Just use Google or search this forum, plenty of racism whichever way. This only made the front-page news because someone made the effort to find out her background and exposed her. She did herself no favours by using her real identity.

How come Amy Cheong headlined the ST front page?

This matter is being investigated and we will have a report in due course. This is a serious concern to all of us and will be addressed shortly. The Labour Movement centers on inclusivity and we will not accept words or action of any of our staff that is insensitive or offending to any community.


And this is how another opposition supporting loser is born

There is totally nothing wrong with such statement. She is just venting her anger towards the noise and it is her right to say anything she wants in her facebook. The noise just happen to be a Malay wedding at the void deck.

I make Malays statement and tell them to go eat pork in the mosque. then this is worse. but still it is my mouth and my right to say this. Sinkie govt make a big fuss over it is because they want to win the hearts of the Malays. All these to kill one sheep and to serve the PAP self-serving motive. PAP is an ass.

You said that "discrimination the other way around does not carry the same effect.". Now show me a similar case where a member of the ethnic minority made racist remarks overtly on Facebook and got away with it. Go on.

In what way does saying that sentence mean I need to show you examples for something not related to the sentence? Take a long walk off a short pier to clear your thought processes.
