Singapore Foreign Minister George Yeo said..... (Hypocrite?)
-
Ministers from the 10-nation Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), meeting at the UN headquarters in New York, "were appalled to receive reports of automatic weapons being used and demanded that the Myanmar government immediately desist from the use of violence against demonstrators, " Singapore Foreign Minister George Yeo said.
Are they hypocritical?
political exile Francis Seow:
Bankrupted to keep him out of parliament and to silence him:
Can we trust hypocrites? What else are they hiding from the people beside taking excessive amounts of public money for their own use? -
Things might look rosy now, like NKF during its heyday. Will it all collapse like the NKF? We have to keep a watchful eye on hypocritical people and send in a few more opposition people into parliament to look over their shoulders kick out a few ministers now and again to show them we are not fools.

the level of physical violence, in myanmar, is beyond humane acceptance liao. -

same objectives, to silence people... dishonorable.
-
bt psychologically speekin, a scene of mental torment does nt affect an audience to dis extent.
-
why want to silence people unless you have something to hide, like Durai.

If the demonstration in Singapore reaches the level of Burma, then I guess our government will do the same and call in the riot police. If they don't intend to use riot police, then what's the point of having this unit in the first place.
But demonstration in Singapore won't reach levels of Burma, because they made a gathering of more than 5 people an unlawful assembly. Moreover, most of the people in Singapore kiasi.

Then again, it's not the magnitude that's baffling, is it? Rather, it's the extreme measures to which despots and tyrants would resort to dispel peaceful, non-violent demonstrations that has hogged the international spotlight.
Perhaps, it's high time the international community paid close attention to the other criminals that, through direct and indirect dealings, help sustain such rogue regimes. -
It is the suppression of free speech and the right to assemble peacefully that is obnoxious and one of the favorite tactics employed by despots refusing to die and taking massive amounts of public money.
It does not matter if it is in the form of this:

How come they can be so shameless? -
There weren't any act of violence on Singapore's part. I don't think Chee Siok Chin was shot, hit or even scratched.

In Burma, gathering of 5 is illegal but still the ppl come out and protest, in Singpore it is not kiasi, the ppl have decent job, got food and income, so they are more or less contented, but in BUrma it is the poorest countries of the world, ppl have nothing to eat, cost of living is high, so it is natural that they have to protest, they lose nothingOriginally posted by maurizio13:If the demonstration in Singapore reaches the level of Burma, then I guess our government will do the same and call in the riot police.

Yes, this has to be it. I am hoping the same protest in Myanmar will take place in Singapore so to alert the other countries to pressurize the oppressive regime Pay and Pay to stop them from oppressing us and deprive us of democracy.

That is typical of them. They are well known to practise double standard. Don't forget that they are supportive of the Myanmar military junta. They share similarities in the way they treat the people in the countries.Originally posted by (human):PAP is suppressing peaceful demonstrators themselves and George Yeo(PAP) has the cheek to ask Myanmar government not to suppress their people? -
