Teo Chee Hean – The paradox of governance

Teo Chee Hean – The paradox of governance

Chee Hean made a keynote speech to the elite civil servants, or shall I called them govt officials, on the role of govt last night (28 March 2012). His key point was the role of government, and the paradox is that some people want more govt some want less. This is nothing new and is really not an issue. He also mentioned about... 

PRC Scholar’s comments repulsive, but not a university-related matter

PRC Scholar’s comments repulsive, but not a university-related matter

PRC Sun Xu I found scholarship holder Sun Xu's comments about Singaporeans to be repulsive. I am more disturbed, though, by the National University of Singapore's actions against him, since his comments were not made on an NUS website or in his schoolwork and were not about his institution (March 27).

除了反恐,内安局展馆应面对政治拘留的历史现实

除了反恐,内安局展馆应面对政治拘留的历史现实

建立10年的内安局展览馆,最近新增一个反恐怖主义展区。这好像是说,内安局的工作只有一个,就是反恐。这是不是意味着,今后内安法只是拿来对付恐怖分子,少理或理不起所谓的“政治犯人”? 独立前后,甚至80年代,内安法一直是政府对付不同政见人士的手段。这个做法,争议很大,我们看到只是行动党政府的片面说辞,在媒体上,也只能看到片面,选择性的报道。事情真的如政府所说的那样吗?我们能回避这个问题吗?内安局展馆是否能还原这个历史真相呢? 这个工作看来很难。尤其是,不承认历史事实,否定做过的事实,依然能够使国家强盛,繁荣,和前进。那么,对于精打细算的行动党来说,为何这么猴急,这么快就让历史真相还原呢?有这个必要吗?马来西亚都废除内安法了,我们还要坚持下去,可见,真的不容易。 否定历史事实,国家依然能够繁荣强盛 我们看看日本和德国在处理二战的大屠杀事件中,就能看出行动党的策略性选择。不还原历史,其实对行动党本身也没有坏处。把历史真相说出来,承认历史事实,反而是一个政治包袱,还要对事情负责。谁来负责?有谁有这个担纲的勇气? 德国政府在战后,公开承认自己的罪行,建立纪念馆,对受到伤害的国家和人民表示惭愧。德国领袖每到受到屠杀的地方,都表示反省自责,甚至跪地请求原谅。因此,德国是在承认历史真相的过程中,取得经济发展,社会的进步,和人民的幸福。 反...
