Well, well, well - What a MOKery of the whole thing. IF the above opening paragraph was in fact an accurate transcript, of the letter, then the author(s) certainly learnt well from Prof. Marv Karlins - must have got an 'A' in SAKKA !! AND I am stunned, the PRESIDENT of an established, professional, 'battle sore' and hard fought for Association has to address himself as a HUMBLE CITIZEN ( which, by the way, has nothing to do with many of the NON-CITIZEN membership !!) Are Civil SERVANTS not employed by the CITIZENS ? The HUMBLE citizens helped put THEIR country on the map ! JUST BECAUSE THE OLD MAN SAID YOU WEREN'T SPECIAL ............ DOESN'T MEAN YOU HAVE TO PROVE IT TO HIM ! I'm truly embarrassed.............. but proud of my profession and beliefs - others are obviously NOT.
PS . I am also - NOT for CONFRONTATION, but I am for SINCERITY AND FAIRNESS.
Maybe ALPA-S should stand for :
Always Licks Politicians A#ses - Submissively.
There.................... another great Singapore acronym.
PPS. And John Barnes............... there is no need for the KY anymore, it's been stretched beyond belief. NUMB thats all I can say.
