Ruler Loong always think peasants are stupid.
They are indeed stupid for tolerating dynastic succession, small wonder they are labeled as descendants from poor South China and Asian coolies and convicts.
During the unraveling of the Marina Park White Elephants, Ruler Loong crows he made the tough decision of choosing gardens over commercial buildings.
By mentioning Marboro Tan, Ruler Loong ensures he has a scapegoat should the Marina Bay Gardens do become White Elephants. Typical Asiatic cheap politicial trick.
Ruler Loong probably think he up the Hong-Kongies by rejecting boxes for green lungs.
Of course with a twist, Ruler Loong is not an idiot as he knows everything has a price. Hence an entry to his White Elephant Gardens will cost 28 peanuts. Well they learnt well, the Barrage White Elephant was built to realise Old Autocrat's dream and it contributed to the series of pondings that forced PUB and Yakult significant problems. Therefore some form of cost recovery will be necessary for future White Elephant projects.
The price to gawk at the latest white elephant will be affordable to foreign talents, especially the anglo saxon tree lovers.
This is one gesture to show foreigners (anglo-saxons) that they are appreciated. At 28 peanuts per entry, this will imply high end foreigners, especially the well heeled anglo Saxons will stroll happily in the parks without encountering hordes of low end local peasants,banglas, nehs, pinoys and PRC gangsters. 28 peanuts entry fee is affordable for the rich foreigners who are usually worshipped as demi-gods and they will make Ruler Loong happy for the ticket revenues.
At least, Ma Chi wannbes will not be mowing foreigners in a garden.
No doubt the locals will moan and groan but who cares as long they stay out of the paid areas, the foreigners will not see those eyesore!
