True, for now, that is. AFTER she goes 6 feet under and election becomes a past, Estaqte Duty will be reinstated. Simple game, no need to use brain to think why.

She, ie: Mrs Lee is rich beyond your wildest imagination and the famiLEE sure ain’t going to let Sinkaporeans have back what they have been trying so hard to amess over the past 40 years, logical right?

Chillax doods and boobs, go view my pics with Gillian, Cecilia and others!

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with inherent and inalienable Rights; that among these, are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness; that to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

Just look at Vietnam war – over a million strong well-armed and well equiped ARVN backed by US airpower, financial and political support melted in total humiliating defeat in a few weeks of assault by a few lousy North Vietnamese divisions hardly backed by heavy armour. I remember Danang was reported to have surrendered without an angry shot being fired and in the dying day of Saigon, an elite battalion fought street battles for only a few hours before a column of North Vietnamese tanks drove in past the locked gate of the South Vietnamese presidential palace.

The will to fight for national salvation COMPLETELY EVAPORATED among virtually all ordinary ranks of soldiers from recruits to brigadiers in the battle zones – never mind what Nguyen Cao Ky and his thugs in Saigon command wanted.

Don’t be too sure our neighbours don’t simply walk in as well -given such fortuitous circumstances for an easy military takeover.

WE ARE FOOLS TO FIGHT AMONG OURSELVES.

if a freak election results in the like of Chee becoming PM, I support the MM/SM/PM taking control of the Armed Forces.

You should know who control the Armed Forces…we have a few BG ministers…if you guys cannot be relied upon to vote responsibly, then you don’t deserve democracy.//

Hello mmm, I can only presume that your sending in the armed forces is your godsent gift to the unreliable, irresponsible and undeserving people of Sinkapoor who had the gall to vote in CSJ as the PM in a freak election? Thank you so much, mmm, I now understand the rudiments of democracy. Anything else you want to teach me?

As for your name mmm, I suppose you’re one up on the MM, two on the SM and three on the poor PM, and are therefore in a position to teach them a thing or two what to do in the event of a freak election.

Sinkapoor is indeed in good hands!

As if the BG know what they are doing.

Look at them now.

they are fat and lazy.

this is your standard of govt.

I feel that the National service ensures 1 thing for certain it is that Singaporeans will never raise arms against Singaporeans.

If any despot or general of singapore gives an order to the millitary to raise arms or to attack the government which was just voted in, he is going against our singapore statutes 122.

Collecting arms, etc., with the intention of waging war against the Government
122. Whoever collects men, arms or ammunition or otherwise prepares to wage war, with the intention of either waging or being prepared to wage war against the Government, shall be punished with imprisonment for life or imprisonment for a term not exceeding 20 years, and shall also be liable to fine.
[51/2007]

I do not think the military will go against the voted in government.

However, if the voted government were to enact the ISA and request for the military to go and quell disorder of those who are voted out. that is another issue to address
