Hi,
This series of events actually made me seriously consider meeting Khaw Boon Wan at a meet-the-people session at Yishun next Monday or something. Do you think that he will listen to me seriously?
Just wondering. Thanks.

He will listen to you, but whether he will (and can) do anything is another matter.

it’s quite surreal learning that singapore has had weapons/arms exports to myanmar. i wonder what will our government say to that, or whether they’ll address this history.
i was actually quite apathetic to the news (before i read the articles and reports). i thought, “what has this gotta do with me”. i realise it has got to do with everything, because i’m a citizen of a government who had, in many ways, supported the junta, which in turn kept them in power.
right now, what i’ve read has outraged me. but i’ll want to hear it from our government and they should be transparent in providing information as to how much (taxpayers’) money and arms they’ve pumped into myanmar over the past couple of decades.
and it’s our right as citizens to ask the government to show the papers and figures.
