We were born free men and women of Singapore. We were educated, in a largely civilized society, and built a great land for ourselves and our children. Now the very things we have invested in are being taken away from us, cut into pieces and sold to the highest bidder, very often from foreign lands.
I firmly believe in the right to private property, but not when the acquisition of that property was made using state subsidies and statutes based on eminent domain. This is our land, our birth right, and we must send a clear message, that while we want to play ball with the world, we will not let our team be kicked around, bent over and spanked.
This is our land and we must fight for it, against all attackers, both foreign and domestic.
Singaporeans need to understand that while we need to be a part of a global economy, the foreigners must also learn how to be a part of us, especially when they are on our soil. A partnership is a two-way relationship. The proper name for a one-way relationship is slavery.
I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees.
