Have you ever wondered why?

Have you ever wondered why while we live in a supposed 'open' society, free speech is still not tolerated?

Have you ever wondered why it is so dangerous to speak against the government, or your higher ups for that matter?

Well, today the SDP got sued (yet again) for supposed 'false accusations'. Yes the allegations are a bit hard to believe, in fact it seems as if its a story totally fabricated in his fantasy. Yet our senior ministers need not squeeze the opposition dry and drive them to a corner by suing them again and again. But I guess this time they are aware of the criticism and made be more forgiving. Yet again, why was the SDP so stupid to throw such allegations? It could be a calculated political ploy, or perhaps the allegations were really true. Heh. Nobody knows.

Well anyway, we're supposed to live in a 'democratic' society. But so far, the only democracy I see happens just once every six years. And even then its not really democratic because we don't have much choice. While the PAP may be unfairly dominating, the opposition isn't really that capable (yet), and perhaps because the PAP choose to stifle their talent.

Otherwise, at work, in school... do we really see democracy? Except with regards to electing our own SC and house comm and erm, FOTY, we don't really have much of a say in our education and the policies the school may choose to adopt. Contrast that with Switzerland which allow students to vote on many matters including their education.

What about in our very own class...?

Now this is interesting, consider this:
What kind of leader would our CT make?





















Answer: A dictator!

Now, isn't that surprising? Please tell me if you disagree though.

But, jokes aside, many of us have suffered, in varying degrees, under many of his unpopular antics, which may not always be bad, but yet definitely not always beneficial.

For example, he chides us when we hand in things a little late, when the consequences are trivial. But when it comes to important things such as our A level registration, he waits till the last day before telling us to see him, presumably to create a sense of anxiety within us so as to either satisfy himself or teach us the importance of punctuality? If it is the latter, then why play the trick again and again without giving us a good proper lecture at the end that he was demonstrating the importance of punctuality. At least that would have justified his actions a little bit more. Because we have such an unpredictable CT, his every move would just keep some of us guessing what he's up to, and whether some actions are deliberate or purely accidental.

Well, I shall not leave my name in case this blog is viewed by eyes that should not see this. Even though I've not slandered, I'm not sure whether our CT might be able to take criticism and feedback well. And if he can, then who wrote it doesn't matter.
