[Press Release] The Threat of Democratic Legal System, Democratic Development and Future of Singaporeans

"The threat of democratic legal system,  democratic development and the future of Singaporeans"  

PAP government does not even require a court order application or an open court hearing to be able to order the closure of a group of social media sites. This is a serious threat to the democratic legal system, freedom of speech, democratic development and the future of the country Singaporeans .

We understand that irresponsible remarks may cause serious social and religious conflicts, and could threaten the security and economic development of the country. Therefore, some restriction is necessary; unless there is any organization or individual making irresponsible remarks posing a threat to the security and stability of the country, then it is necessary to take legal action.

We cannot accept those who for their own party political or other personal purpose to undermine social harmony and stability, ethnic and religion, and affecting of security and economic development of the country. Therefore, any person or group of social media sites promoting national and social stability with harmful remarks should not be tolerated. Our party’s position is that freedom of expression is a universal value, but must be based on facts and not illegal. Our party does not agree with the party’s ordering of the closure of the “The Real Singapore” website.

We think if PAP government party can order a ban in the absence of a trial, or even shut down any social media site, a move similar to the exercise of the Internal Security Act - it may also apply to the court to arrest any citizen without an open trial. This would  not only violate the constitutional freedom of speech of the people, but is also against the spirit of democracy and freedom and the rule of law. PAP government applied to the court in the absence of a court order, even when waiting for the results of the trial court has ordered the closure of “The Real Singapore" website, leading to the citizens questioning the political wisdom and judgment. This makes one wonder if the PAP government is going back to the high pressure rulership with an iron fist? If the PAP is really back to the high pressure and iron-fisted political line, we cannot sit back and ignore this, because it will develop a serious threat to democracy and legal system to a democratic country and the interests of the people. Therefore, we call on everyone to urge the PAP government to respect the constitutional power of democracy and freedom of speech of the people. When they wish to close any group or individual social media sites, they must apply to the court for a court order and court hearing so that it is fair and just. The future of Singaporeans lie in the people’s political participation and as well as democracy and freedom of speech in Singapore people.

"胁了民主法制建设、和国家民主的发展和新加坡人的未来

 
动党政府未经申请庭令,或是在法庭公开审理之下,就可以下令关闭个团体的社交媒体网站,这严重的威胁了民主法制建设、言论自由、国家民主的发展和新加坡人的未来。 

 
们理解不负责任的言论,可以造成严重的社会与宗教冲突、以及可能威胁国家的安全和经济发展。所以在必要时受到一些约束,除非有任何组织或是个人发表不负责任的言论,确实威胁到共和国的安全与稳定时,才能采取必要的法律行动。 

 
我党不能接受为自己的政治或是其他个人目的来破坏社会,民族与宗教之间的和谐与稳定,以及影响国家的安全与经济发展。 所以当任何人或是团体的社交媒体网站,推广有害国家和社会稳定的言论,是不能容忍的。

 
论自由是普世价值,但必须有事实根据,也不违法这是我党的立场。但是我党却不认同新加坡媒体发展局下令关闭"实新加坡"网站的程序。

 
我党认为行动党政府在没有向法庭申请或是经法庭审理就可以随意的下令禁止,甚至关闭任何社交媒体网站,举相似于行使内安法,时可以逮捕任何国民而不需经法庭公开的审理,这不只违背了宪法给予人民的言论自由也 违背了民主自由与法制精神。

 
动党政府在没有向法庭申请庭令,甚至等待法庭开庭审理的结果之下就下令关闭"真新加坡"网站的做法,不只质疑新加坡人的政治智慧和判断力。令人质疑行动党政府是否要走回高压与铁腕政治路线?

如果行动党真是走回高压与铁腕政治路线,我党不能坐视而不理,为它将严重的威胁民主法制建设和国家民主的发展以及人民的利益。

因此我们呼吁大家一起要行动党政府尊重宪法给予人民的民主与言论自由的权力。在关闭任何团体或是个人的社交媒体网站时,必需向法庭申请庭令并即以他们公平与公正的审理。

新加坡人的未来取之于新加坡民众的政治参与以及民主与言论自由

 

 

谢谢!

Refrain from Violence!


新加坡是法治社会,我们绝对不能容忍个人自我当判官以暴力来对付任何被提控的新加坡人。
我们必须严厉打击这种不文明行为,希望警察能够立刻采取逮捕行动把这为"暴力判官"绳之以法。
 
Singapore is a society ruled by law, we absolutely can not tolerate those who play judge and resort to violence against any prosecuted Singaporeans.
We must crack down on this uncivilized behaviour; we hope that the police will take immediate action to arrest this "violent judge" and bring him to justice.

Taxi is a Public Transport

这么多年来民众招德士都习惯在路边起手招德士。德士不停肯定会被搭客投诉。停车接客却使到他们频频接到非法停在路边的罚单。

德士明明是交通工具为什么不能像公共巴士那样,在每个巴士车站旁边设立德士车站呢?
 
 
 
 
There are so many people who are used to hailing taxis by the roadside. The cab drivers would get complained if they do not stop to pick these passengers up; yet when they stop for passengers they might get fined for stopping illegally.
 
Taxis are supposed to be public transport, therefore why can't they be like the buses - to situate a taxi stand next to every bus stop?

Losing Our Footing


如果有一天,我们失去了地理位置的优势,我们是否能继续的繁荣与稳定?

中国为了自己的战略利益,一直会往外开发以及控制运输航道,这将使我们的水道受到严重威胁,我们的港口受到严重的威胁并将失去了优质的地理位置。

我们必须识时务,认清目前的形势,保障我们自己的未来利益。

我个人认为我们必须采取以下措施:

从国会选举制度开始,必须更改现有的选举制度,废除集选区,管委和非选区议员制,再以各政党得票率来分配席位以确保国会有不同政党轮替,以及多元化的政治理念参与拟定国家政策,

, 再还没有强化国民教育和认同感,国家与社会为先的意识之前,暂时停止接纳新公民,

, 历史虽然不可忽略,但是我们已经跟共产国家有着密切政治,文化,经济与军事交往,因此必须去除矛盾思想,行为和策略。政要要有人性,多注意他国领袖的感受,因此没有必要再高调的提倡反共产主义

, 开始逐步减少对美国的依赖,身为小国应该保持中立,

五, 设立中华文化研究中心,

六, 恢复南大校名,恢复以华语为主流,并以华语教科目以及考试,来拉近跟中国的关系

, 加强跟马来西亚的经济合作,共创经济圈,

, 设立马来文化与语言研究中心,以拉近跟马来西亚的关系

, 让新马两国公民自由出入境,废除两国公民的工作准证,房屋税,入境税等等,

, 全面改革我们的教育制度,注重自由创意,独立思考能力,公民道德等等

 
 
 
What if one day, we lose the advantage of this geographical location, would we still be able to continue this prosperity and stability?

We are not only faced with the strategic interests of China because if the development and control of transport routes, so that our waterways are seriously threatened and we might lose our quality geographical location.

Who is our country going to depend on for survival in future?

Singapore is a country with no natural resources. We are able to have today's achievements due to our geographical location, the previous fine planning, strict management of the society, economy and autonomous education. As such, the Government could, through education, economic needs and self-discpline, penetrate the sub-consciousness of the citizens to create a high-quality and superior people, because it's the only way the ruling party may efficiently develop our country's economic direction in accordance to the international situation to enable us to have today's prosperity and social stability.

If one day, we lose the advantage of this geographical location, and the ruling party can not create a national model for its own benefit, would we still be able to continue this prosperity and stability?

What worries me about the commnity today is this - because the ruling party has opened the doors of Singapore widely, attracting in a lot of foreign population, so that the citizens of our community doping different nationalities of the world, different cultures and social attitudes.Some of them were not even educated in Singapore during their childhood, hence have not been instilled with the self-discipline of our ruling party's educational system; this is also to say that the ruling party would have great difficulty controlling the thinking of these new citizens to reach the desired effect of our economy and disciplinary system.  On top of that, advancement in communications technology has seemed compress the space in this world, our autonomous educational system has been thoroughly defeated by influence of external parties via the Internet.  The ruling party is not able to monitor all the information on the Internet nor ban it, so now even some of our own young and middle-aged citizens have their own political ideology, outgrowing the economic and disciplinary subconsciousness implanted into them since young by the ruling party to form their own set of opinions and ideas that do not waver. This forms two of today's problems faced by the community.

These two social problems have caused the ruling party to feel the need to attach great importance to their own interests and votes. Therefore they must always take into account the public interest and public sentiment in response to certain policies that may invoke dissatisfaction.

As the ruling party can no longer maintain a tough stance as before, or to implement some policies that may be undesirable, It makes it more difficult to meet the challenges of the flexible international situation. In this way, our country is not able to get rid of the risk of facing opposition in its democratic, freedom and economic development.

This also results in the ruling party not being able to be like before - formulating a fine and long-term development policy and planning education and training budget

It is necessary to have talents to achieve national economic development goals, so we are not only faced with the strategic interests of China because if the development and control of transport routes, so that our waterways are seriously threatened and we might lose our quality geographical location. Even our only resouces - Human Capital, due to network technology innovation, change of thinking, people are demanding for more freedom and democracy, following the degradation of social consciousness, we may ultimately have to leave our home territory in order to have a better life.

We must understand the times, and understand the current situation, to protect the interests of our own future; Personally, I think we need to take the following measures:

Let us first start with the electoral system. The existing electoral system must be changed with the abolition of GRCs, management committees and members of non-constituency system, and then to vote for political parties to allocate seats in Parliament to ensure that there are different political parties in power, and political pluralism concepts involved in the formulation of national policy;

Secondly, before we are able to strengthen the national education and identity of the state and society, we should suspend the admission of new citizens;

Thirdly, although history cannot be neglected, we already have close ties with communist countries in political, cultural, economic and military exchanges, it is necessary to remove the contradictions of thoughts, behaviour and strategy. Politicians need to have humanity, showing concern towards the feelings of his country's leaders, so there is no need to advocate anti-communism;

Fourth, begin to gradually reduce dependency on the United States, as a small country we should remain neutral;

Fifth, the establishment of the Chinese Culture Research Centre; to enhance the relationship with China;

Sixth, to restore the reputation of the Great South, a return to using Chinese language as the mainstream, and teach courses and exams in Mandarin;

Seventh, to strengthen economic cooperation with Malaysia, to create economic cycle;

Eighth,  to set up the Malay culture and language research centre; to enhance the relationship with Malaysia;

Ninth, establish Singapore-Malaysia bilateral civil liberties, immigration, the abolition of the citizens of the two countries work permit, housing tax, entry tax, etc.,

Lastly, a comprehensive reform of our education system, focusing on freedom of creativity, independent thinking, civic morality, national philosophy and psychological qualities etc.

Accidents' Causation

牵涉致命车祸的司机到底是那个国家的人?
到底自今有多少车祸牵涉外国司机驾驶重量型卡车?
 
 

 
What nationality is the driver who caused the loss of a life in the accident? 
 
Just how many accidents here have been caused by foreign drivers driving heavy vehicles? Shouldn't there be more stringent guidelines and assessments before they are allowed to drive in Singapore?

Where is the Efficiency?

样样讲求效率的政府,查一件牵涉菲律宾人侮辱国人和宗教的案件却到至今还没有消息,效率啊,效率啊,效率啊,难道遇到外国人你沉没海里?
 
样样要国人跟外国人公平竞争,菲律宾人公开侮辱国人和宗教,却没有对他立即采取法律行动,公平啊,公平啊,公平啊,难道你已在这块土地消失了吗?
 
一直高挂着公正无私的品牌,国人一有过失立刻逮捕并提控上法庭治罪,为什么菲律宾人却一直停留在调查的阶段,公正啊,公正啊,公正啊你跑去了哪里?

一路走来都以法制治理国家,没有人享有特权,为何他到至今还没有被提控上法庭,特权啊,特权啊,特权啊,难道你真的存在着这里吗?

国家虽然小,胆量却过人,马克菲照鞭打,如今一个菲律宾人却把胆量给下跑,胆量啊,胆量啊,胆量啊,你跑去了哪里?




Here is a government that emphasizes a lot on efficiency, yet they take so long to look into the case where Singaporeans and our religions are being insulted by a Filipino (working here). There is no news on this case till today. Well, efficiency, efficiency, efficiency, have you sunken into utter silence when faced with foreigners?

The locals have to compete on equal grounds with foreigners working here, but when it comes to Filipinos humiliating Singaporeans and our religions, there is no appropriate legal action being taken. Well, equality and fairness, have you simply vanished from the surface of this Earth?

Since (the government) always reiterates its fair and just policies, and Singaporeans are being prosecuted the moment an offence is being committed - why is it that this case regarding the Filipino remains stagnant at the investigation stage? Well, justice, justice, justice, where have you gone to?

Since we have always been a country governed by regulations and no one is given special privilege, why is it that he has not been charged in Court? Well, privilege, privilege, privilege, perhaps you do exist in this country, after all?

Singapore may be small in size but we are more gutsy than others. having carried out caning as penalty on offenders of other nationalities in the past. Today, though, it seems there is no sign of this courage. Well, courage, courage, courage, have you run away from here?
