Gilbert Koh Appears in Man/Born/Free

I mentioned several posts ago that I'm getting included in an anthology featuring writers from Singapore and South Africa. At that time, I didn't even know the title of the book, but now I do. It's Man/Born/Free, and from what I've gathered, contains political overtones and is, ahem, mildly subversive in nature.

For those interested, the book launches on 26 March, as part of a wider event at the Arts House (it's their 7th anniversary celebrations). Details, details:

Now they will do everything to pse u because election time and promise, after election they will increase everything from pub coe erp gst cpf.

If how to finance the pay rise, after election all the policy they make favour themselve, they will ignore any protest giving various excuse.

If not will a small country had $200 billion dollars in reserves, only 2 opposition out of 84 seats, something must be wrong.

Many of them left their cpf even that they wan to lock it up to 68 year old wan u to work and work to fiance their life style

No country with with a proper democracy had only 3 percent opposition parties in the parliament

Is this what Lim Boon Heng touted as 'empowering the elderly'?

They do not even have a say regarding their own CPF savings.
