Scare-mongering MM. Again!

MM Lee Kuan Yew thinks his old ways of scaring Singaporeans will work with the new generation of voters. I'm sorry to tell him he is wrong.

He told residents of Tanjong Pagar that without a strong government, Singapore would not be able to face up to external challenges, such as the rise of China and India, or a sudden spike in oil prices sparked by a crisis over Iran.

He also insisted that big businesses would not invest in Singapore.

Mr Lee, you need to be more convincing. You may be able to fool the older generation of voters, most of whom were not as well-educated. But who are you trying to kid?

Look at China today. Why is everyone flocking there despite the fact that it is a communist country with rules that are far from being conducive to business?

Google has even censored its site to appease the Chinese. All the big businesses are there despite massive corruption.

You yourself got enticed by the Chinese to invest our billions in Suzhou Industrial Park and failed miserably because you do not know how to handle people smarter and more cunning than you!

Why do businesses go to China or anywhere else? Because they know they can make money.

And what is a strong government, anyway?
Only a PAP one? What crap! So a country with a strong opposition is not a strong country? Come on, Mr Lee, try to be more convincing.
