Dear Readers,

As some of you may have heard by now, Andrew Loh had, as of yesterday (Sunday 5 June 2011), resigned from his position as TOC Chief Editor with immediate effect.

We are sad at this unexpected development. We do not propose to wash dirty linen in public, and so we will only say that there have been some differences between Andrew and the rest of us. Andrew has had some impressive achievements in this stint as TOC Chief Editor, notably leading TOC’s editorial coverage through the seminal 2011 General Elections. Without his leadership, we would likely not have enjoyed the success during GE2011 that we did. We thank him for his contributions and wish him all the best for his future endeavours.

Moving forward, Ravi Philemon has agreed to be Interim Chief Editor. We are working on putting in place a team to support him. In addition, our current projects will continue, hopefully with minimal disruptions. This includes the upcoming first instalment of the “Post-Election Transformation Series” on this Saturday 11 June 2011, as well as an exciting event that we will announce very shortly.

Please do bear with us if there are any disruptions or delays during this difficult period. In the meantime, please continue to email [email protected] with your ideas and comments, or if you wish to volunteer with TOC or help us in any way.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

Yours faithfully,

Joshua Chiang

i especially like his honest direct critcism about chee soon juan:

TOC Andrew Loh says Dr Chee is INHUMANE
Andrew Loh (TOC) writes on facebook:

The LKY-bashing by some quarters, disguised as "empathy" for his loss, makes me cringe. There is integrity in letting a grieving man grieve - no matter what he may have done in the past. Are we any better than him whom we criticise if we act just as he would or had? Where's the humanity we speak of?

Let me add:

The worst way to try and right the wrongs done by someone is to try and do so at a time when he is grieving the loss of his wife of 63 years.

It is not only inhumane to do this to a fellow human being who's suffering, it also puts... those who are aggrieved (such as the ISA detainees) in a bad light - even if inadvertently.

And to disguise such calls - to right the wrongs - as "empathy" for his loss is just pathetic. Perhaps it wouldn't be so bad if it was an outright criticism of LKY.

I am sorry if any of you feel I am barking up the wrong tree. But if you wanna know what I am referring to, it is this:
