I suggest that Chua would serve his country worse if he criticised only the incompetence and intellectual lethargy of PAP, and not those who will undoubtedly take over them? akikonomuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05750460516384317828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10473879.post-6062801190325534932015-01-03T10:46:35.194+08:002015-01-03T10:46:35.194+08:00He may not be a Foucault or a Gelner, but given hi...He may not be a Foucault or a Gelner, but given his undoubted talent, Chua would serve the country better if he gave us his take on the socio-economic impact of the over the top immigration policy that has caused so much heartache rather than nit-picking at these events.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10473879.post-28277835160264710482015-01-02T11:40:19.401+08:002015-01-02T11:40:19.401+08:00Yes, he was nit-picking.
