I like the logo animation! Simple but nice.

It is hard to believe that the authorities would do such a thing, especially in SG. What is described are methods used to divulge the truth from people but these are probably only used in the military or CIA or secret service perhaps or maybe for terrorists. You need to ask the authorities why they did this to you and I think they will give you a justified answer. They must have had some evidence to support why you were imprisoned and treated in such a way.

@tomcruise2011 "Hard to believe" - what a brilliant refutation of this speech.

I suppose Stalin and Pol Pot also had ample evidence and justification to imprison, torture and execute their political opponents as well.

Why isn't my condemnation of the post found below by a sassappeal not put up. If he does not apologise to Singaporean Tamils like me ... I am going to the authorities to incriminate him for a racial slur on the net.

MrVincent CHENG, your speech is informative, clearly eloquent & moving. But please weed out that who throw his lot with Transient Workers-VIncent Wijeysingha- who comes as wolf in sheep skin doing the same, promoting those who rob Singaporeans of our jobs but worse, only as these dark SubContinent Indian rough labour greedily slurp up the PResidency and now refuse to return back because they cant handle the high cost on our island country &stay to smear about us Weed out the wolf,Wijeysingha

@sassappeal : wow do you really know what Transient Workers do? They don't promote foreign workers. It is the PAP who promote foreign workers in singapore. What TW does is to protect those who have been cheated and abused in singapore, to help them live while waiting out for a police case that can last up to 2 years.

what Wijey has been doing is not much different from what Vincent Cheng was doing. It is social work. It is a promotion of human rights. I hope you are willing to listen.

@sassappeal pls apologise for your racial slur here before I personally report you to the authorities. I give you 1 day to reply before you are reported. I am not affliated to any political party ... I am a Singaporean Tamil ... just like our President Mr S R Nathan, a law abiding citizen who has served his National Service and btw ... a lawyer by training ... either you apologise or face the consequences ... how dare you talk ill of Singaporean Tamils! Racial slurs are punishable by jail term!

@sassappeal What about the PRCs for 'greedily slurp up the PResidency and now refuse to return back because they cant handle the high cost on our island country'. In this time of unity, why do you instigate racial hatred. We Singaporeans regardless of race or religions are JOINTLY against the influx of foreign workers. If you wanted to criticize them, then do it without mentioning the race of the workers

We Singapore Indians are dark too...should we leave?
