The WORDS
"is the nature of the Singapore system" brings shame to Singaporeans. I don't know how those S'porean ball carriers who welcomed PM Lee in Auckland hide their red faces?
PM Lee's cowardice probably earned him utter disdain from NZ PM John Key and a letdown on Singapore as shown in this news article. No amount of damage control or whitewashing by the ST MSM can remedy the gaffe even when NO words were issued by Mr Mee Siam Mai Hum!

Media kept at arm's length of Singapore PM

Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsein Loong will have a round of talks in the Beehive today.
But the media are being kept at arm's length.
They're being invited to photo opportunities but have been told there'll be no questions to Mr Lee.
Mr Key says that's Mr Lee's wish and is the nature of the Singapore system.
