now MOE is taking action too, on the Pinoy's husband, a teacher at Tampines JC

Oh no! I think he will face disciplinary action if they investigate and confirm that he is the one,
not his wife posting those comments.

Why are these 2 being disciplined when many other comments on fora are worse? This eye for an eye will make the whole world blind.

Ironic that those who tout freedom of speech, complain about the lack of it under the present political regime, would terrorise those who speak their minds, demand their pound of flesh.

Its a very ugly Singapore that is emerging. Much like the riots in London, you don't know what's under the surface until the jar is tipped over, and vinegar pours out instead of wine.

I actually blame the g'ment for this. They had the opportunity to engage and draw the sting of cynicism 20 years ago. Their conservatism and leaden-footedness has created the howling pack that will now not be placated.

Action taken against him? On WHAT basis?? For speaking his mind? For bruising the egos of thin-skinned Singaporeans?


All you anti-estab Singaporeans, this REALLY what you want, some arbitrary criteria for taking disciplinary actions? Don’t complain the next time the gahmen sacks a civil servant for posting anti-gahmen comments. Intimidation!! No freedom of speech!! Blah Blah…

Yes I hv read it yesterday..very interesting but it makes my blood boils on reading his comments on Singaorean women..and insults on fellow singaporeans.. plus using words like autistic. :mad:

I think the main reason he is in trouble is because of his racist remarks.

Should we let this kind of person scott free?

MediaCorp censors segment of Penny Low looking down at her HP in replay of National Day Parade

State-owned broadcaster MediaCorp has censored the embarrassing segment on PAP MP Penny Low looking down at her handphone when the National anthem was sung in a replay of the National Day rally yesterday.

Ms Penny Low was forced to give a half-baked public apology following an outcry over her moment of inattention which was captured and widely circulated on the internet.

In the original video shown ‘live’ on 9 August 2011, Ms Low was seen looking down at her handphone as the National anthem was being sung:

I'm just curious for those who speak up for him, directly or indirectly, were they exposed to the whole facts before commenting?
