Roy is now an international celebrity. He had caught the attention of the world media. Good for him and Singaporeans.

You're right.

According to LKY, LHL's mandate is to continue the former's legacy.

Are you working for the state-controlled media?

If yes, I charge for giving out important info.

On the other hand, if you're from the media that advocate freedom of speech and expression, my service is free of charge.

It's up to you to believe what is in my original post. If you're working for the PAP, you could perhpas claim credit and some pocket money (I'm guessing at least $450).

CONCERNS GROW OVER SINGAPORE PENSION SYSTEM

Activist Roy Ngerng called for greater transparency in Singapore`s pension system on June 7th after writing a blog post suggesting the Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong was embezzling monies paid by Singaporeans to the state pension fund. The allegations obviously didn`t go down too well with the head of government who is now suing the blogger for defamation.

Roy Ngerng was asked to take down the offending article and publicly apologize, which he has since done. The story has generated lively debate across Singapore with countless web users posting messages of support for Roy Ngerng on his Facebook page. They criticize the Prime Minister`s reaction, saying he is violating the blogger`s freedom of expression. Netizens are also donating money to help pay the activist`s legal fees, they have raised over 100,000 Singapore dollars so far, about 60,000 euros, in less than a month.

And so the blogger has become the spearhead of a movement challenging the city-state`s pension scheme. The campaign is being coordinated online under the #ReturnOurCPF hashtag, with posts denouncing the system`s lack of transparency and calling for a referendum on whether or not the system should remain in place.

And activists have also taken these demands to the streets. This rally was staged in a Singapore park last month, and was initiated by Roy Ngerng himself. Another demonstration has been scheduled for July 12th.
