Comment on SINGAPORE - Issue on Harmony

"THE race riots in Sydney, less than two months after the Paris suburb riots, illustrate the perils of the globalised world.A nasty concoction of uncurtailed freedom of speech, immigration and segregated housing caused two very sophisticated and cosmopolitan cities to spiral into anarchy."

Although it was only one of the reasons, its still a reason theres so much chaos.

Could this be the result of not having restrictions on free speech? If Singapore allowed free speech, would this happen? It may or may not, I’m sure the government isn‘t willing to risk it. The government is doing their best to control what is posted, but can only do so much. Are we going to blame the government for having such harsh control over our opinions? When what they are doing is merely trying to keep the peace. I’m not against Free speech; it’s just that I’m not sure if Singaporeans are responsible enough to handle it as it just takes a few comments to spark it all off.

make some sense

best viewed in 1024 X 768 resolution. a brief history about the author pertaining to the theme of shadow of transcendence. it came about in the wee hours of the early morning while being whisked away into memories of the past etched deep within the mind. bittersweetness that tingled the tastebuds of her emotions and feelings, the only way out for true liberation from this reality is what is behind the shadow of transcendence; suicide. the taste of iron-rust blood coiled with the lingering bittersweetness is the only contemplation of which the simplicity of life has to offer in exchange for the shadow of transcendence. made in the heavens through one creator, an angel borne to serve man; fell from where it belonged to earth where its purity shadowed by boredom and nohing better to do.

enjoy what i make out of maturity and childish fantasies.
