The word gratitude is not to be found in Lee’s lexicon. In fact, it would have been a great joke if Lim’s detention had caused him any grief.

    not in his lexicon would include humility, empathy, compassion, truth, accountability, retirement, shame, honour, pledge, ………..

    and it would be a great joke too if the following had caused him any grief ;
    working for the enemy, stop at two policy, bilingual policy, lost of credibility with Sporeans, daughter-in-law losing Billions, not a nation after 50 years………

  3. How about the word greed? Is it in his lexicon?

  4. Karma struck him already, the first is an eldest gchild with “albino: so, what is next???? only the “god” will know????? It is time for him to atone his wrong-doings before more……… heehaheehahaha

    smallyfly at 4),

    The child is innocent. What era are you living in to even consider having an albino child as a form of punishment? Under no circumstances should an innocent descendant be blamed for what the forefathers have done. My dislike for these politicans might not be lesser than yours.

    Let karma work by itself, and more importantly, Singaporeans should strive to make the karma they want to see happen.

    Sorry, I am living in the scientific age but, just a question to Depresso, don’t you think it is a cruel punishment for a man like him that fight, fight, fight, fight and fight……. AND destroy all his enemies under the pretext of ISD for national security and win all battles mercilessly and, when return home after each successful battle and see what the “GOD” has given him to face daily, I believe in the late of all nights, he will not be thinking how many families he has destroyed due to his greed on griping tightly to the power but, what he has done wrong to deserve a gchild with albino, this is “GOD’s” will for him to introspect.

    How much you loath this autocrat has nothing to do with the punishment that the “GOD” wants to impose on him!!! In the eye of “GOD” you are nobody and that also apply to me of nobody to the “GOD”.

    Mind you, it is not me to cause this misfortune to him but the “GOD”, do you understand, my dear!!! I sincerely urge Mr. Depresso to understand, KARMA has nothing to do with an innocent-kid, it is a punishment to the evil-doer by the Mighty-God. I am a total outsider to look at the punishment on him by the “GOD” and nothing else!!!!! Again, whatever comes will go, whatever an action there will be a reaction!!! By the way, I do not have anyone in close-relationship to me as a doctor to advise me on medical issue!!! The man has a daughter of good medical training as a doctor!!!

  7. Gratitude, compassion, empathy , magnanimous are all foreign to him – instead, , he will rejoice at Lim’s detention and ….

    I think he has been in power for too long, almost 60 years in politics, he thinks Singaporeans owe him for the success he created. He believes his son is rightfully the hair and planning for succession with his grandson in mind.

  9. NO one in his right mind will detain another human and robbed Dr Lim Hock Siew of his years of freedom, without trial and under dubious circumstances.

    LKY was a great man but his innate animal behaviour of survival of the fittest, made him into a faceless human of dreadful deeds and “killing” all his worthy political opponents.

    His nights now may be sleepless as he unveils the events of the years of power grapping and elimination of innocent oppositions by unfair means.

    He is living with his ‘conscience’ and maybe the sleeping pill is his best friend.

    For the sake of Providence, please exit graciously.

    for the sake of decency…please exit with shame!

  11. As he enters his sunset years and about to meet his Maker,
    I wonder does he feel any regret, remorse for what he
    has done to his political opponents: Lim Chin Siong, Hock Siew
    JBJ, Chia Thye Poh, Lee Siew Choh, Tang LH, the alleged ‘ Marxist conspirators”
    Chee SJ, Leong Mun Kwai ,Seow KL, Harbans Singh etc (the list goes on and on)
    making many of them broken men.
    In life, you wielded the great power to destroy,
    In death, you will reap the retribution.

    he said he didn’t live till 85 to lose this game and he is nobody’s stooge

  13. karma man 15 December 2009

    When you ignore the role he played under the japanese and later with the british as a traitor to the nation and race he becomes a hero. to me he is nothing but a traitor who will betray anyone for his own gain. when he dies i will spit on his grave maybe pee even cos i cannot do anything when he is alive and rules us

  14. In death there are two final things that cannot be taken back, blessings and regrets. They will decide if you have a peaceful death or agonising one.

    Hi guys, just heard over the radio about the implementing a new rule comes next March, something regarding the set 24 mths maximum subscription limit for internet service, and if anyone breaks the 2 yrs contract would not be penalised. Wow, that’s exactly 24 mths to the next coming 2012 GE, not bad hah, how desperate one can really be. Suspect they might just completely shut down the internet communication and leaving you ppl with no choice but to except and relying on the MSM on whatever these MIW plans to tell you all the news they wish.

    Singapore looks to be heading towards dictatorship, slowly peeling freedom of press, expression and living away, step by step.

    Are we going to change our flag too?

  17. The Old fart is considered the most ruthless person, selfish and covetous. He will only go on his knees when he meets his creator! Right now, he is already wobbling in his conscience, but too late. History will be re-written again soon!

    Forcing Singapore to follow all rules and using ISD the parliament to change rules of fairplay to stay as a leader has failed. LKY knows his game plan and it is biting back. To save his face he does not want to come out and accept blunders made. An example stop at two, and when true blue Singaporeans population stagnated another new book was written. Open sesame and let the foreigners take over. Peace
