Activists to stage NKF-CPF protest
10 Aug 05
A group of Singaporean activists will hold a protest outside the CPF Building in Robinson Road tomorrow, 11 August 2005, Thursday, at 12:30 pm.
A statement released by the group said that the protest is aimed at NKF, CPF, GIC, and HDB because of the non-transparent and non-accountable nature of the organisations.
“As news of the National Kidney Foundation subsides, questions regarding the reform of the organization and how its operations will be made transparent and accountable to the public remains unanswered,” the statement read.
But “as the NKF is reflective of the general system, the protest will also be targeted at the HDB, CPF and GIC.”
The protesters will be demanding transparency and accountability in these organizations as they are “owned by the public”. -
FYI, India Pakistan Sri Lanka & Banglasdesh (known as British India) got their independence after the NV activist master known as Mahartma K M Ghandi led Non-Violence Movement to fall the British colony. Few dozens of other countries in the history up till presence had regime changes via similar NV Civil Actions.
any brutality or opposition to this will only invoke the wrath of Ghandi or non violence followers worldwide. Proably they would have informed major international news networks by now -
Hmm...

I think the organiser did not think through the whole process properly. For organising a protest, you have to have license issued by the relevant authorities. Many of us are law abiding citizen and will not go to the extend of breaking the law. For those who go, they will get into trouble with the law.Originally posted by About A GaL:http://www.youngpap.org.sg/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=6069

The organiser should just say it is a gathering of like minded people to discuss the concerns at Â…Â….(where) at Â…Â… (time and date). Then every body can go and discuss the concerns. -
