Say NO to internet regulation in Singapore.
Of Singapore: 43 years and growing
Posted by singaporedaily on August 10th, 2008
Happy National Day Weekend Singapore!
We have come a long way…
a long long way…
We rose from our tiny red dot…
To create or improvise an identity to call our own.
The most recent entry, the Singapore Flyer.
Yes we are a nation with harsh laws. But nobody said we cannot toe the line.
Did we progress too much too soon?
Are the laws that governed us 43 years ago too old for this current day and age?
Am I a dissident because I write this blog?
Am I truly a citizen without a voice?
I am pleased that I went through National Service however challenging
Yet it pains me when young lives are lost
To the family and friends who have lost their loved ones while they were representing the country or serving the nation, you make National Day more than just a day of pretty fireworks burning in the sky.
Thanks for reading,
the B
