Taiwanese said Singaporean Stupid!!!
-
You all taken out of context....
Li Ao meant that Singaporeans are dumb because they are willing to accept a monopolised parliament and they are not vocal in expressing dissent and there's no solidarity in opposition to the government.
He says that Singaporeans are powerless in unpopular government reforms and law changes.
This is as good as PAP going along with any law changes as they see deem fit.
And seriously, if Li Ao is the opposition in singapore, he will be a big headache for MM Lee and family/gang. -
Li Ao is the opposition in singapore, he would have been enjoying first class prison food in Changi Prison nowOriginally posted by Ponders:And seriously, if Li Ao is the opposition in singapore, he will be a big headache for MM Lee and family/gang.

No, we're not stupid.Originally posted by rich989898:After a tour of China in September last year, Li Ao, the famously outspoken Taiwanese politician and author, said at a press conference in Hong Kong: 'Taiwanese are still better. They're scoundrels but they're lovable. Hong Kongers are craftier. Singaporeans are stupider. The Chinese are more unfathomable.'
We're just OPPRESSED. -

well said.Originally posted by vasteel:"If an intelligent person is being called stupid by another, he will just pretend nothing has happened and will not be angered by the remarks. On the other hand, if a really stupid person is being called stupid, he will defend himself by saying he is not"

fu ck him....ugly asshole...a K1 child is ever smarter than him

Read the paper, interesting to know this chap hated Japanese man, like japan dish and woman.
KMT chief Ma invited and given him for a lunch that cost S$325, if it is expensive, that must be good then.. Lot to learnt... -
In a TV show he explained why he said Singaporeans are "stupid". He said that is because although Singapore is a successful country, there isn't many outstanding individuals that he knows of. He said although Singaporeans don't break rules, they also don't stand out. Thus giving him an impression that Singaporean are "stupid".
-
I like him though, he do whatever he like and say whatever he like and most of all he supported reunification between china and taiwan which i love to see that happen too.

This Li Ao old fella likes to play around with words just to provoke his opponents and also gain popularity. I kinda agree with Ponders as well... don't take his words literally. -
Such a nice wealther to sleep.....but why am I doing here..."Cheap bone" ""'cheap bone"..
Just wonder what they had for the lunch appointment..if one of my idiot KMT Chief Ma think it's expensive..and still can walk off with smile, I think it's must be worthed the lunch appointment.
Looked at the picture again..realised my idiot KMT Chief Ma is still so handsome..looked at Li Ao nothing special..but why no Li looked for Ma, but it is the other way. I studied no much....
Old Malay neighbour used to tell me these saying if "Ali don't go to the hill, the hill moved to Ali"..Meaning is if you really need him..how big you are..go and see him.
I take 1 step backward..what topic were they discussing..." Weapon purchase" National issue isn't it..and why Li....someone who looked normal wearing red jacket. Well-known for wearing red jacket.. And his statement to KMT Mah was even more fantastic..."let me (single sabre attend gathering)..a typical general and characters...
Can such people with such character be bad...
I took 2nd steps backward and think about "confused" teaching again..very very confused... I know I was not confused...then I realised...I was sleeping all these while..
Li Ao is definitely supreme classed..and even I now feel myself as a sand in front of him..making thing worst, he may think I not worthed a talk then
It really encouraged me to find out more on what he do and say...compared to the "confused" studies that I known..
"He may not looked handsome...but you don't know how good he is by his look"
No offence, (you may be no). I admitted that I am stupid, very very stupid. After some many years of studing.., I had hardly moved 1 inches out of my box...(sighed)
Please scold me.. Thanks Li for scolding.. -
If Gong Sze is number 1 and he named number 3...I doubted any number 2...(deep cannot hide)...must really use the rain to talk my shower...wake up wake up...it's time to wake up..no yourself..it's your thinking..

What he said about Singaporeans and Taiwanese and Chinese all has hidden meanings. According to most news broadcast analysis, he is actually refering to the type of government system each country has.
I know what he said can be hurtful, but stop insulting him and all that. Other countries around the region will just laugh at how childish and lack of political mindset Singaporeans are, which is not true. -

You are smart..but I am not...I am very very stupid..thanks to the rain..It waked me up.. Li Ao is definitely supreme classed talent...if confused is 1st and he 3rd, you can't find the 2nd one.
Don't play play with him....If he wanted to open class..I will pay to attend his class..
You are good.. I am shamed as I started to know he had taughted us.. I won't open my mouth in front of this master if I were you..cause once mouth open wide, next moment filled with bird dropping..
Believed me...he is right..learn from him..you process further in your life.. -

actually he's right. our forefathers come from the coastal areas of china, and they are mostly labourers or fishermen in profession. its not wrong to say that our "zhong" is not of superior quality. look at our chinese names, does yours have a profound meaning to it? if you look at the Chinese's names, you will notice that their names are usually with deep meanings, unlike ours, so common and of hardly any special meaning. the comment that our "zhong" was not good was actually first made by MM Lee Kuan Yew.Originally posted by ruixiangz:Li Ao called Singaporeans stupid because he claims that our forefather are un-cultured and un-educated...this, we are stupid. We are stupid because of our forefathers, our 'zhong' is not good.
But I find this very funny. Firstly, our forefathers came from all parts of the world before WWII, but a large number of them came from China. And at that point of time, KuoMinTang (KMT), the first ruling party of Taiwan, was in control of China.
KMT could not even defeat the CCP despite years of trying and aids from USA. They fail to drive out the Japanese forces when they attacked ManchuKuo either. Corruption, bullies, warlords were everywhere under their control. Finally...they were badly crushed and humiliated by the CCP.
Then...they ran to Taiwan and claimed that Taiwan is the 'real China'
Till this day, Taiwan could not even proclaim their independence...something that is so simple and basic. And their politicians don't just use their mouth to talk, they use their fists to get their points across.
Now tell me, who's 'zhong' is worse? Who's forefather is worse? -
u know.. i have exactly no idea what king108 is talking about... you guys help me with it? it sounds like disconnected thoughts through a schizophrenic mind.. Personally, it sounds like gibberish translated word for word from chinese to english..
I have no idea why that Li Ao fella spouts stuff like that.. But I guess he ain no master.. I rather learn from LKY's how to construct a docile population that just pumps in money man.. Dudes, that's tangible assets man, despite certain flaws in the system.. But hell, it ain the process, it's the finish line... -
What "Zhong"??? I tot all humans' ancestors are apes??? Didn't we all have the same "zhong"???Originally posted by sugarkitty:actually he's right. our forefathers come from the coastal areas of china, and they are mostly labourers or fishermen in profession. its not wrong to say that our "zhong" is not of superior quality. look at our chinese names, does yours have a profound meaning to it? if you look at the Chinese's names, you will notice that their names are usually with deep meanings, unlike ours, so common and of hardly any special meaning. the comment that our "zhong" was not good was actually first made by MM Lee Kuan Yew. -
Singaporeans stupid ???
Taiwan is successful in part because it fit nicely to the US support to hedge against China, thus receiving financial assistance or business... much like South Korea has.. against NK.
Singapore had to slog it out on our own... on the very first day. Small and kicked out.
I had the misfortune of partly involved in the overseeing on our factory's machinery installation project a few years ago. The contract was awarded to a Taiwanese co. And I can tell you... Taiwanese working attitude are the worst I come across ...irresponsible and mindless. Don't know where he got his Masters.. and their technicians are ill discipline and stupid... and downright dangerous.
Any suggestions from us would received an aggressive response.." that's how we do it in taiwan.. not happy you do lah"... and when we finally said "ok", they will put it to us that it will be "breach of contract" and "warranty is off".
Can you believe that they would simply hang a 4-ton vibrating machine connected to two belt.. onto a prestressed column 500mm wide, with only four bolts and with no vertical support.. and they boycott and walked out of the factory floor when confronted ! It became our structure nightmare to live with. Other things like disregarding the specs of other existing machines, "not their problems"
Taiwanese are asshats... and I have not gone into their personal hygene, fights and demands.... yeah you're stupid alright.. giving them contracts.
WTF.. the Chinese(China) would usually say "no problem.. don'y worry"... Don't ever ever believe so.. but they would rectify and heed your suggestion.. should you insist.... but not the Taiwanese. -
We are not talking about taiwan..I am talking about Li Ao.. Why are you confusing yourself..
Yet still so happy???
