Not all wars are fought because the laobaixing wish it.

There are Russians - the common/ordinary people - who just want a simple life, going about selling goods, perhaps running a restaurant, or repairing computers, cars and so on.  The invasion of Ukraine is not their war; it's Putin's war.  Many Russians are not in favour of it, asking...why would I want to shoot down the Ukrainians?  They are my brothers!

I can say the same for the many wars fought in the history of China. If you could ask the people who had died in the war, or later through the natural process of aging and death, who lived in the Tang, Song, Ming Dynasties....ask those common folks, did they ask for war or not, and I am quite sure their reply would be "The Emperor ordered it."

War is declared by the victor on the loser, but sometimes, the war is won by the prey.  Whoever wins takes over the rule, and the common people become its subjects.

This is why we should not and never hold grudges against the Japanese people, even though unmentionable atrocities were committed by the Japanese army, undoubtedly with the tacit concurrence of the Japanese Emperor.  Even if the Japanese PM does not apologise, so be it.

This is why we should not treat the Chinese as enemies just because of Winnie.  The CCP and the Chinese people are two different things altogether.

This is why whatever we may think of Trump, Nancy or Biden, we should not have the same views about the ordinary Americans.

The disconnect between those in power and the masses is a given in any society.

I wish to add that Singapore's success story is due, inter alia, to the ability of the government to deal with the "disconnect".

If Singapore comes under the rule of a rogue government...one which is corrupt, incompetent, talks about rape cases or tells people to take lies to the cemetery or do a 成何体统 and a magic hat trick (takes client's money and vanishes), the disconnect would be very cham lor.

It's our blessings that we have had two good PMs, and a current one who is just as good, with another promising one on the way.

It happens that Pew is an American think-tank based in Washington DC. Naturally, one can see why SG is being excluded from its latest popularity survey.

I can't understand why Asia being bullied colonialised for so many years still got so many brainwashed until so pro west and anti China.

Even the new South Korea President Yoon who was very pro West during campaigning for election is not so pro west after election.

President Yoon was even humiliated when he participated in G7 meeting. He was so enthusiast when he first met Biden and he moved forward to shake Biden's hand, Biden was focusing to meet his next white leader and shaked hand with Yoon without even looking at him.

That is how white sees Asian.

I wish to urge all those reading my post...VOTE WISELY.

Vote for PAP, and give Lawrence Wong a strong mandate.

Once upon a time, we spoke about globalisation.  Fancy words like "Global village, knowledge based economy, then knowledge economy" were fashionable.  The US and China were friends, the EU were friends with anything which moved, and everybody in Europe loved the EU till the British decided that Brexit was the way to go...

Now, the whole world is turning inwards, and becoming protectionist.  Let's not forget the one thing which had ever happened in our very own lifetime for a good example of this...when we had to eat cheekon rice made with frozen cheekon.  In deep and troubled waters, and when there is only one float, it will not be given to us.  Malaysian abang dan adek..........it's BS.  In times of food shortages, I telk you lar....we die is our own funeral hor.

Do not play tikam tikam in the next GE.  This is not a time to vote for more LIARS into Parliament.  We do not need rape dramas or graveyard advice.  We need a competent, honest and "connected" leadership.  Vote for PAP.  No need to thank me.

Not true.

You lied.

In the below peekture, the Western leader who needs no introduction leaned forward to shake the Asian leader's hand.  As anybody can see, the PRC leader made all Asians proud with his body language.    

If the South Korean leader did what you claimed (NPNT anyway), it just goes to show that he disgraced us Asians by rushing forward to eagerly shake a hand just because it was attached to an angmoh's body.  

Listen to this::  People treat you the way you want them to.  

Chairman Xi was treated with respect and dare I say with a fair amount of fear, that he was not one to be messed around with, regardless of whether you are West or East.  The kimchi leader was treated the way he deserved to be...period.

Don't give me this bullshit lah.. win the war is one thing, ethnic cleansing is a different thing.

How many sinkie lost their grand/great grand fathers during the sook Ching in sinkie land..

Japan is fortunate they never kena the same ethnic cleansing when they lose the war.

Thanks for reverting by quoting my post, but I must say I'm not really sure what you are trying to put across here and how this has got to do with the ongoing discussion? 

Seems to me you are stating that those in power and their actions do not represent the laobaixing and that's that. This is tautologically true, but like all tautologies this leads to a dead end in discussion. Not sure what can be further followed up from this? 

The rest of your posts calling for support of Lawrence Wong also don't seem to have much to do with either the thread topic or ongoing discussion...

Define ethnic cleansing, and I will tell you that the rants about "ceca" is in fact precisely that.  The recent recruitment of doctors from India already triggered ethnic cleansing protagonists to rattle sabres.  Like you, they want Singapore to become a Chinese city.

They heck care about what others think. What they need now is money to solve their Corporate debts. Now grow until biggest in the World  They have been printing and printing. Soon will b largest printing press of the World.

I read your source which never says this is there is any "printing" involved.. in fact, the article clearly describe the debt is not Chinese gov but cooperate related which itself is comparable to US Gov debt. Now I would be more worried that Gov is in that level of debt...which the US has been for a long time.



Corporate debt in China reached nearly US$29 trillion in the first quarter, the highest in the world and roughly equivalent to the size of total U.S. government debt,..

Strange - why do you accuse webinarian of lying when he is sharing an inconvenient truth that many Asians continued to be brainwashed after being bullied & colonialised by the west ?

If a handshake or behavior between the S Korean and US president represents a master-slave relation...No one beats how Japan is treated by its master in the 21st Century

The handshake accompanied by a pat on the hand gives me the impression that Trump was telling Abe, 乖仔，你真乖，你很听话。我爱死你了。

[webinarian]

China has no need to bother about these western imperialist countries including Japan who are aggressors and bullies of China in the last 200 years. China is one with its own history of 5 thousand years.    

China just wants to stop their bully of China, will do.

[webinarian]

You can see such imperialist face in this simple shake-hand picture.  

But Xi is just keeping cool and look at the evil attempt.

In short, what was said is TRUE ...that some Asians today remains brain washed by western influence.

Good e.g. is see how the South Asians were treated for nearly 300 years under the AMTK...Today,  Pew don't even wanna ask the Indians in their survey.

Correction - there is no such thing as "China covid" nor is the Pew survey based on the leaders from those "developed" economies.  As usual, you never fact check before posting.
