Latest announcement by Dr
Chee Soon Juan at Speakers' Corner
Empower
Singaporeans
@11.30pm, 17 Sep 06
The team will
remain at the Speakers' Corner until Tuesday morning (19 Sept
2006).
Since the police continue to prevent us from going
to the Parliament House, we are left with no choice but to remain
at the Speakers' Corner.
We will do this until PM Lee
Hsien Loong gives his speech at the IMF-WB opening ceremony on
Tuesday morning.
The reason we are doing this is because
we wanted to speak about the following issues at the Parliament
House and ask the Prime Minister to address them, but had been
stopped:
1. The widening income disparity. Why the
Ministers pay themselves millions of dollars while poor
Singaporeans see their wages plummet, or worse, cannot find
jobs.
2. The issue of Nepotism and Corruption, such as, in
the Prime Minister's own words, “buying” support and
“fixing” the oppositions.
3. The serious
allegations of money laundering in Singapore, including drug
money from narco-traffickers in Burma and corrupt business
dealings from Indonesia.
