Re: LKY up lorry already

They will hide the news for a while. If this is a free society, the news cameras will be camped outside the hospital where he is being treated.

Agreed, they will be interviewing every single doctor and nurse and we'll have real time updates on his condition. Now all we get is a press release when they feel like giving one. knn

Re: All Lee Kuan Yew extended Family Members are rushing back to Singapore

I got info from my ex classmates that all Lee Kuan Yew extended family members are rushing back to Singapore since last Sunday.
Speaking of LKY extended family members, a little bird from the West told me that Familee made use of their relatives to buy up prime properties in Sentosa Cove by using shell companies registered in the BVI, Malta, Cayman, Mauritius, etc... Altogether Familee owns between 7 and 12 very high end properties in Sentosa.

He's not a member of the inner circle, and he does not have royal Familee blood flowing in his veins. :wink:
Very true. One of my extended family members knew LKY many years ago, before WWII. From what I heard, LKY has a low opinion of Ah Nehs. But who wouldn't? Almost all Chinese Sinkies of LKY's generation don't trust Ah Nehs.

And still his IB fanboys and fangirls believe he is some sort of a noble, self-sacrificing founding father who gave his all to transform Singapore from third world to first. Oh, my beloved ah gong! Get well soon! :rolleyes:

Re: Dictator of S'pore, Lee Con You in hospital for severe pneumonia, dying soon. Yip

Two issues :

1. He said he'd jump up from his death bed if things were going wrong. We'll everything is turning to custard and he's still lying there.

2. He specifically stated in an advanced directive that he didn't want to kept alive with machines and tubes. The doctors have disregarded his wishes and have not been taken to task.


.


here is the full Quote Singapore's founding father Lee Kuan Yew, who will turn 90 next month, said in a new book published Tuesday that he feels weaker by the day and wants a quick death.

"Some time back, I had an Advanced Medical Directive (AMD) done which says that if I have to be fed by a tube, and it is unlikely that I would ever be able to recover and walk about, my doctors are to remove the tube and allow me to make a quick exit," he wrote in the book "One Man's View of the World".

The book is dedicated to the Asian statesman's views on international affairs but an entire chapter contains his musings on death, religion and other personal issues. The 400-page work is dedicated to his late wife Kwa Geok Choo, whose death in 2010 shattered the normally stoic veteran politician.

Lee has visibly weakened since then and revealed in the book that despite daily exercise and a disciplined lifestyle, "with every passing day I am physically less energetic and less active."

"There is an end to everything and I want mine to come as quickly and painlessly as possible, not with me incapacitated, half in coma in bed and with a tube going into my nostrils and down to my stomach," he wrote.

Lee, a British-trained lawyer who served as Singapore's prime minister for three decades and turned it into a high-tech industrial and financial centre, expressed his blunt views on religion in the book.

"I wouldn't call myself an atheist. I neither deny nor accept that there is a God," he said.

"So I do not laugh at people who believe in God. But I do not necessarily believe in God -- nor deny that there could be one."

Asked where he drew comfort from if not from religion, he said: "It is the end of any aches and pains and suffering. So I hope the end will come quickly."

Elsewhere in the book, Lee addressed what he considers the biggest long-term threat to Singapore -- its low birth rate -- and rejected as "absurd" suggestions that his population programme in the 1970s urging couple to stop at two children contributed to the current situation.

Despite a slew of so-called "baby bonuses" to encourage couples to have children, Singapore's total fertility rate last year stood at 1.20 children per woman, far below the 2.1 needed to maintain the native-born population.

Lee, who retired from politics in 2011, blamed Singaporeans' changing lifestyles for the problem and said monetary incentives would only have a "marginal effect" on it.

"I have given the job to another generation of leaders. Hopefully, they or their successors will eventually find a way out," said Lee, who handed power to his deputy Goh Chok Tong in 1990 after 31 years in office.

Lee's son, Lee Hsien Loong, is now prime minister after succeeding Goh in 2004.

Singapore's low birth rate has forced the government to open the country to foreigners, who now comprise a third of the population.

The influx, however, has sparked protests from citizens and prompted the government to tighten immigration flows in recent years.

Lee pointed to the example of Japan, which he said is on a "stroll into mediocrity" as the ranks of its elderly swell due to young couples not producing enough babies.

Japan's reluctance to open up to immigrants will further lead to its decline, he said.

"If I were a young Japanese and I could speak English, I would probably choose to emigrate," said Lee.

2 things must take place before Doctors Go ahead :

That explains the public drinking ban, even though it has no relation to the Little India riot and is near impossible to enforce. :wink:
