From an article concerning :
Strong Leadership and the Catherine Lim Case
According to Lee Kuan Yew, [catherine] Lim "wrote a series of critical commentaries on Lee's successor as prime minister, Goh Chok Tong. Many believed she was unlikely to have penned the piece if Lee were still at the helm."
The Senior Minister himself has stated:
Supposing Catherine Lim was writing about me and not the prime minister . ..
She would not dare, right?
Because my posture, my response has been such that nobody doubts that if you take me on, I will put on knuckle-dusters and catch you in a cul de sac . . .
Anybody who decides to take me on needs to put on knuckle dusters.
If you think you can hurt me more than I can hurt you, try. There is no other way you can govern a Chinese society.
If people behaved like governments, you'd call the cops.

With all the ammunication of ISA and defamation suits, and knuckle dusters on on side and a bare lady finger on her, she has practically no chance in a jugular match. However she did at least stand up and be counted. Those who stood their ground are not many.

i agree bah. certainly more likely to be like street gangsters, when another gang comes in their territory, they'll make the hell out of other gangs(or as in opposition party). most opposition party's leaders, the more aggressive ones will most likely get sued in one of their talks.Originally posted by drawer:Robinhood?The PAP seem to act more like a street gangsters than like a Robonhood!!!! -

I believed that higher personal tax. Can be ranged, but to be fair, treated equally, make it same. Since the corporate tax is reduced. The government will be able to recover some from the personal tax.
The higher you earn, the more you paid after deducting all the items that you are allowed to claimed. Are you against this? I am willing to do so.
GST currently 5%, any increase will have direct impact on commoner. Do you wanted it. I would not encourage, cause I care for the commoners.
One may live in Nothingham forest, but he may not be that Robin Hood. Robin Hood is named by the commoners, not anyone can name himself as one. No offence.
Surprising, I am coming back to this topic.."Tian Shi, Di Li, Ren He"
Basic step..(Don't tell me reegan, don't give me bush) be rationale when you comments only if you lived here and singaporean.
Lower Corporate Tax - You don't come someone come. Door always opened to foreigner corporate and healthy for SME.
Higher Personal Tax - This will encourage the rich to fork out more. Foreigner loved singapore can pay more too. We loved singapore, let all love singapore together. Don't you.
Wages Packages - Never ask for reduce, high is good..I wouldn't wanted to see any possibilities of growing corrupted officers because he can't pay for his lexus or basic needs. On the basis, all must increase.
GST - leave it there, don't change it since already enforced.. Wrong / right doesn't matter..just carried on.
Progress Package - take some from the personal tax to give the poor and needys..(Needed no to give all, but real needys) I studied no much...but I am man milk feeded -
they dont and wont give away money for nothing.Originally posted by Purplehaze623:my mum always say: govt' will discount a little everywhere, den raise the elec and water bills, ERP, etc. this progress package will be well covered up after the election, with some rises of bills. somehow i think this is quite true.
the loss will be recouped in no time.
