I support Li Hongyi
The military is full of incompetent fools and stupid morons.
The problem is that nobody dares to say anything because you would get your ass kicked if you do.
It takes someone who is immune to the inherent oppressiveness of that system to be able to stand up, point out the problems and go against the herd of sheep.
I support Li Hongyi.
Who is he?

Call me cynical, but this saga might just be yet another load of wayang to launch 3rd generation Lee to Singaporeans. No need to cheer or jeer his actions.
If young Lee is really so interested in ensuring good leadership for Singaporeans, he might want to ask his mummy in whose leadership did Shincorp fiasco occur.
Wayang?

You’re not cynical, you’re a conspiracy theory nutcase. I’m sure you believe that there are alien spacecraft in Area 51 as well.

Short, concise and to the point.
I agree.

anyway, this SUPER WHITE HORSE is going to go far whether or not we like it. MIT scholarships are so preciusly prestigious that only his grandfather can afford to spend the money to send him there.
He did the right thing but handled the matter wrongly - its a lesson for him in the art of policiticking and lobbying to further his ideals in the face of cowardly guys who wear the commissioned rs.
Anyway, not all commissioned officers are idiots or morons. As one myself from my NSG days I used to serve with Li Yi SHyan (hmmm I wonder if they are relatives???) in the 3rd Brigade. Many of them scholars are honourable gentlemen - not the yelling shouting and barking type but they are thinkers at a vastly differently level. I learned that you don’t need to yell and scream to “command” respect - their soldiers loved them simply because they think wisely before they act. Since my encounter with White Horses of the SAF officer’s fraternity, I have gained a much better appreciation WHY they are the ones who get these expensive scholarships. Its because they are intellectually wel ahead of many of us linear thinkers. Scholars of this calibre are funto have around during oPS planning exercises - THEY USUALLY HAVE A PENCHANT TO OUT-THINK AND OUT-SMART PEOPLE LIKE THE C.O. AND THE S3 , WITHOUT EMBARRASSING THEIR SUPERIORS - AND MANY OF THESE WHITE HORSES , idealistic as they may be, have a very humble disposition - they know they are being watched and scrutinized - and they accept their faults and erros rather openly and candidly - in the end they are the ones who laugh best - because they learned its better to laugh last……
