		<description>These evil leaders and their families will 1 day loose all that they have. They will only hear the cries of the dead at their death beds. They will be remembered long into their country&#039;s history. May all the sufferings, the deads and those who are still in prison be relieved of their pain.</description>

		<description>7) Burma FT welcome on July 3rd, 2009 10.51 am 
&quot;
i wonder where are singapore’s film talents?
Suggest we welcome more film FT from asia to take up citizenship.
We have run out of ideas for 50 years straight.
&quot;

I actually think that because of culture and inexperience with at-least-2-fairly-equal-party state like that in usa, UK or elsewhere, singaporeans may not know what is their problem. Maybe foreigners can give a &#039;out of the box&#039; solution to bring change.
The saying goes that  &#039;a 3rd party sees the situation clearer&#039;. also, &#039;dang ju zher mi&#039;.

In short, I also welcome new citizens who can think differently. We have run out of ideas as proven by history.</description>

		<description>#2 (Myint Mi Khiang) wrote Sg has a MM LKY who is &quot;A living legent that bring a whole society from 3rd world to 1st world.&quot; 

Yes,  he brought the Foreign Talent population in Sg from 3rd world to 1st world, and the local bred Singaporeans from 1st world to 3rd world with his policies in the last few years !! Many FTs have jobs here while the locals are unemployed !!

And those who disagree with this fact must be from the elite group who are spared from this 3rd world by this great man, these are his cronies who are paid million dollar salaries, all from tax payers&#039; money !!!

Sadly people from outside can&#039;t see this ... it takes someone from inside to reveal the truth.</description>

Singaporeans can only try to understand by what the see through the traditional mass media, and post internet era, &quot;extra-ordinary&quot; films such as this.

Interestingly, such films are always about street protests.</description>

		<description>An extraordinary, moving film that I will definitely watch - moving in the way when courage and selflessness stand up to oppression and paying a heavy price for it.

It is a film Singaporeans should watch.  It might inspire us to stand up and speak out after being conditioned to sit down and shut up all our life.</description>

///But luckly Singaporeans do not have to go through all this and I believe people like you and those in HDB Kopitiam Ah pek have a lot to thanks your MM LKY. A living legent that bring a whole society from 3rd world to 1st world. Burmese look up to the living legent LKY, if only we have such a great leader.////

Thank you for your perspective.
Sadly it takes someone from outside to see it.
So many back home here are like &quot;fishes not knowing water&quot;</description>

		<description>There are brave Sing


One of them a trade unionist, albeit for the newsman and that was I think in the 1960s. 

They picked him up at night under Operation Storage. 

Then they fixed him up. 

Till today his mind is gone. His relations are taking care of him. 

I probed and they reluctantly told me about Op Cold Storage. 

I was in the military and worked for the officers in charge of intelligence -they are lacking in intelligence. 

I know what they had done and are capable of doing. 

They screwed my mind and I lived overseas to heal my mind. 

Then there is spontaneous bravery - like the people who broke down the wall separating East and West Germany and reunited their country and broke up the Russia.</description>

That may just happen with new FTs when they become disenchanted with things around them.

That&#039;s something the govt must be prepared to deal. Unlike local born S&#039;poreans, these FTs are a very different breed. They come from countries where protests are common. So just wait and watch.</description>

		<description>I agree that singapore lacks film talents of the world class type.
To be fair, there is 1 or 2 with potential but not yet there.

For this, I also support having new citizens as those born here have a certain mentality nurtured by culture or environment and system. 

When people have worked or done business overseas, they know how unique he is as a singaporean.

For 1, we  are super subservient and compliant and dare not even utter dissent.

Can these type of people be creative? yes. But be CREATIVE enough to compete internationally where foreigners are nurtured in a different type of environment?

I am not confident that singaporeans are more creative than foreigners , in general of course as there are always exceptions by the 1 or 2&#039;s. but that is not the point.

Creativitiy is what is needed in knowledge economy based on human capital.

I vote of no confidence in locals creativity. 

peace.</description>
