That Singapore flag is Made is Taiwan......let them burn their own product.....kekekekeee.........waste money!!!
we should burn their flag electronically using Made in Taiwan PCs......by creating a website with a burning Taiwan flag.....this way we save the earth.... -
Its a difficult balancing act for Singaporeans, we are dependent on many for investment, jobs, opputunities and security. One wrong move and our economy will be effected. So everyone should think rationally.
When BG Lee visited Taiwan some time back, many of us Singaporeans who have to work with Mainland China were effected in our own small way. My Mainland China clients would bring up the topic at every chance and demand to know why Singapore was so insensitive. Altough its not officially recorded (not that I know of) even Singapore Airlines was effected in a small way.
The SQ flights I took to the spanking new Guangzhou airport were all remote parked (no use of aerobridge) altough there were many available, all the other airlines could park at aerobridge bays except for the poor SQ flight which was remotly parked. All the passangers had to use the buses to get to the terminal.
Altough this might not have been due to BG Lee's visit, it strongly smelled like something was wrong.
Now it's Taiwan, I for one am not looking forward to going there in the near future. Not because of fear but because it will be counter productive trying to get anything done there.
Singaporeans are more educated and westernised, and as such we talk, act and behave in a more gentlemenly and courteous manner. Sometimes this can be misconstrued to be weakness. But National Pride is important, and when push comes to shove, my personal opinion is that we Singaporeans will stand up for the Nation.
Having said that, lets look at things objectively, a bunch of uneducated Taiwanese misfits burning the flag. Thats all it is, if it escalates to a direct hostile or degrading act by the Taiwanese government than it is a diffrent matter altogether.
Better that it's Taiwan than Mainland China. Taiwan talks big because it thinks it can count on Uncle Sam's help, that remains to be seen.
I'm Singaporean and I'm proud of my country for all the things we are. -
I'm appalled by the fact that they burn our flag, but I am saying that our politicians are no angels too.We cannot be blinded to the gaffes that we have done, firstly we go to Taiwan, ostensibly in private but with a public agenda, then we suck up to China in front of the General Assembly.When a man says one thing and does another, we call him a liar.When a country does the same, we call it statecraft.No wonder the Taiwanese are feeling aggreived.Imagine having a relation iwth a nation since the latter's independance, letting the latter troops train on our own soil for decades, then having these same fellows denigrate you in front of the global community.Look at it objectively,we should have expected this earlier.But if a war would break out I sincerely hope we can put blind economic greed aside and stand beside a nation which has helped us since independance when no one else would.Many other nations would do the same I'm sure.They just can not say it out right now.

Good points and noted. Totally agree with the fact that our politicians are no angels and should be more sensitive and diplomatic, a modified Swiss like approach maybe.Originally posted by LazerLordz:I'm appalled by the fact that they burn our flag, but I am saying that our politicians are no angels too.We cannot be blinded to the gaffes that we have done, firstly we go to Taiwan, ostensibly in private but with a public agenda, then we suck up to China in front of the General Assembly.When a man says one thing and does another, we call him a liar.When a country does the same, we call it statecraft.No wonder the Taiwanese are feeling aggreived.Imagine having a relation iwth a nation since the latter's independance, letting the latter troops train on our own soil for decades, then having these same fellows denigrate you in front of the global community.Look at it objectively,we should have expected this earlier.But if a war would break out I sincerely hope we can put blind economic greed aside and stand beside a nation which has helped us since independance when no one else would.Many other nations would do the same I'm sure.They just can not say it out right now.
You are right, it is a due to economic greed now that I think about it, but I can't help but think economic stability plays a big part towards social, political and thus National security. With no hinterland nor resources aside from our people, playing the 'regional game' takes a great importance.
All said, our politicians should thread the line a little closer and remember as you so rightly pointed out that Taiwan has 'been in our corner' for a long time. -
do something spectacular in revenge
dont just whine in a small forum like this -
On a lighter note, this being Bar alnd all....

burning our flag may be one good strategy to divert international attention on their non-committal views in going fully independent.. there's still a wide divide within taiwan in this pivotal issue hence, neng tuo jiu tuo lah..
