Vincent Cheng's speech at the SDP rally on 2 May 2011

[blackariesjq84]

I have met Vincent and can say that I have had the fortune to speak with him. I attest that he is such a gentle, kind-hearted and wonderful man. Singaporeans PRs & residents of this little red dot must know of our history - all the good, the bad and the shameful - the whole lot. The collective consciousness of the people must progress and change for the better. I urge the government to admit its wrongdoings to the good people it wrongfully detained under ISA so we can move forward as a nation.

Mr Cheng! Singaporeans are behind you!

Bravo, Vincent.

I am old enough to know exactly what happened to you.

It's so great now that you have a forum and platform to tell the world how authoritarian and cruel the PAP regime is.

History is on your side. The whole truth will be known to the world one day.

did a little girl just shout "I know already leh" when Vincent Cheng said "I was never charged, never put on trial, never convicted...yet. Under the ISA, the government had the right to detain me as long as they want." @7:06 ???

@hailzhongyi, you think you are grading presentations ah? bloody idiot.

[MrDio67]

zhonjyi try to imagine if this honoprable man is your father and he was detrained in jail and tortured for numerous years???wld u say those thngs abt PAP? U are blined and cannot accpet the truth that the PAP shld be held accountable for crimes against humanity!!! Shame on you my friend. I assumed u had reqasonable knowledge but u were simply hiding the dirt for PAP.How long can PAP last.. We are no longer fearful as our forefathers whm ad been manipluated physically and psychologically...

[lacelin]

I am sorry we let you down. Never again.

PAP must be brought to trial for crimes against humanity.

[straighttalkism]

This was an excellent speech. Bravo, Vincent! Btw, zhongyi, your English is very poor.

[hailzhongyi]

there is a lot of room for improvement as a speaker for him. this is one of the worst speech ever in terms of presentation

[1337hacks]

@hailzhongyi I have two names for you. Teo Ser Luck and Tin Pei Ling,

[jacandthebeanstalker]

@hailzhongyi whether he spoke well or not, i understood perfectly what he was trying to say. he's just a simple, common man, sharing his ghastly past experiences. the presentation of his speech is of low relevance.
