The problem is Dictoators do not know when to quit or change…..by the time they realise it …..it is often too late……many examples abound … Musollni of Italy, Franco of Spain, Hitler of Germany, The Shah of Iran, Emperor Selesie of Ethopia,\, Aidi Amin of Uganda, Pinohet of Angentina, Fuji Mori of Peru; Nicolai Ceaucescu, Marcos, Suharto…and many many others…I pray for the sake of the current Oligarchs of Singapore they amend their ways (I doubt they will since they have to protect their multimillion dolalrs allowance of taxpayers’ money) before it is too late for them.

You guys are real comedians. Since you obviously know how to find me on Facebook, send me a message using your real-life identity and we can have a proper chat about how ugly and stupid I am. I look forwards to it!

right. and i’ll throw another generic name back at you. i’m james tan.

i think you’re just jealous because she’s smarter, much nicer, more popular – all in all a better person – than you. i dunno whether to laugh, get angry or feel sorry for you. please, give up la, no one takes you seriously.

if i were as sad and loserly as you, i’d just quit – at life.

So TR made an honest mistake and we shall all move on, while the article continue to be posted here…
end of the day we will see if TR achieve it’s agenda set out in the about us page.

Maybe these oppressed journalists can reclaim their lost karma by writing for alternative media like TR. They are at events that normal peasants will not see, and can offer insider news without disclosing their identities.

to tojermynwee:

TR deletes things all the time. A few months ago they accused the government of blocking their site and quietly took down the posting when it was clear it was not true.

At any rate, taking something down and putting up a notice explaining why you took it down is not unethical. What is unethical is keeping something posted even though you know it is false. It’s clear this note was copied and that it contains lines not in the original. The credibility of the piece is shot, yet they keep it here because they think it is in line with their agenda.

Ultimately I guess it’s up to TR, but it really should then stop trying to pretend it is a bastion of virtue.It is as bad, if not worse than most people it criticises.

(It’s not hard to find an SPH insider, but TR clearly didn’t, neither did helplessinsingapore.)
