Permanent Head Damage

Contrary to popular understanding, PhD is the abbreviation for Doctor of Philosophy, a postgraduate academic degree awarded by universities, not Permanent Head Damage. The academic level known as a doctorate of philosophy varies considerably according to the country, institution, and time period, from entry-level research degrees to higher doctorates. Naturally, the institution which accords the title to an individual bears some responsibility for its wisdom to bestow the honour. The term philosophy here does not refer solely to the field of philosophy, but is used in a broader sense in accordance with its original Greek meaning, which is "love of wisdom".

It is hardly wise for anyone to take his personal grievances to the local rag, and expect his story to be told in full unedited glory. As it happened, the dirty laundry flew right back into his face. It is doubtful any political party will accept such an individual within its ranks, especially when it's impossible to gauge which way he bends with the wind. Samples of his scatterbrained machine-gun fire:
  • calling Roy Ngerng “deceitful”, saying that the funds that he raised were “ill-gotten”, mentioning ISIS murderers' and rapists' justifications with Roy's matter, and comparing him to Yang Yin,
  • writing that Vincent Wijeysinghe should “stop pretending to be hurt for personal publicity”,
  • making uncalled for remarks against other opposition parties such as saying that the NSP lacked principles, questioning the general character of SingFirst, and calling out WP's Sylvia Lim's argument as being “very silly”,
  • likening PAP's Heng Swee Keat to Judas Iscariot
  • putting up a tasteless caption of a photo of Lee Kuan Yew
  • saying that, “some religious people are stupid”
  • casting aspersions on SMU's teaching system
  • saying that one “...can rob, rape, murder...just say that you are against the PAP and anything also can. No need to take responsibility.”
It is said that the meaning of a terrorist's bomb is as specific as its debris. Best stay out of firing range, unless you welcome being castigated as part of the the Looney Fringe.

  1. There are so many Ph Ds and Professors in this little red dot that you wonder what the Ancient Greeks would think of them. The old quodlibetal question of how many angels can stand on the head of a pin seems silly nowadays.

  2. Is he a mole? I suspects as we near elections fever many dirty laundry will be ratted out "mysteriously". It would pay for Opposition parties to be careful and selective in their candidate recruitment. Have to be tried and tested for a long period.

    1. You mean that Jeremy something, a mole planted by the PAP in SDP ? Sure looks like one rodent to me. Do not know him personally but his rantings sure qualify him as one .

  3. Infiltration, undercover, phantom, lie and whatever strategies are part and parcel of politic.

    It is said that playing politic is playing with fire and also politic is dirty. Because of these, some become flame proof, deaf and having hides that are so thick that they are numb.

    Politic does mar the Integrity of many though politicians will deny that they have any blemishes.

    Like to say here that PAP has no problem that the Alternative Parties are having from time to time.

  4. Did he really say all those things ? Whatever for?

    Or is he trying very hard to seek someone's attention fast like how those Geylang whores used to ply their trades ? If he is, then it is understandable.

  6. Looks like an open letter to PAP for an opening there, armed with a PhD and an arrogant attitude that matches the party's elitist philosophy. He was getting nowhere in SDP after 3 years, thanks to CSY's astute judgment. Not likely that any party will take him in after all the shit that came out of his mouth.

  8. Notice in his Facebook post, "Calvin Cheng likes this". This Calvin Cheng has his own "dirty laundry". He was a NMP and a former YPAP member, who gained notoriety in a case of illegal price fixing in 2011 when he was the President of the Association of Modelling Industry Professionals (AMIP). And this smart ass called TRS readers "morons". I guess it proves the saying that birds of a feather flock together:

    1. That slime is an opportunist. He knows who calls the shots and aligns with those to get ahead.
      Look at his FB, he is more PAP than the PAP themselves and yet call himself independent without shame

  9. Lol..one phenomenon I have observed is that the internet has envisaged and facilitated private citizen going online to call themselves " public figure" after just one term as NMP. Do they still qualify as political office holder ? Is this a lifetime conferment ? Their ego can't seem to accept that they are no more public than anyone who has a social media account and tweet publicly. Pfffft.

  10. Calvin Cheng, who regularly lived on Women's wallets, have no bone of his own. Calling him a snake is an insult to reptile's kingdom. He is just a worm constantly feeding on other people ass to make him look "great".

  11. Actually....he is desperate to join PAP....so do all this stuff....it is understandable...he is showing and saying cooing words to PAP to please accept him cos what he stating in the public domain is the same as what PAP is doing too so okay to accept him into PAP ranks/climb fast at others expense ladder...jeeezzz....use to think the PAP are rational policy makers and know who can deliver and who BS a lot...accepting such into the PAP...means PAP really hit bottom in finding real committed people to their Party....anyone can talk and act up to suck up...but what is the farking point in the end...can the person actually deliver and make a real positive constructive contribution to a future.....for this chap, based on his "words" in the public domain...speaks volumes of his character...and we have not even seen actions yet taken...which will definitely be much worse...to re-quote "Actions speak louder than words".

    Lucky this is singapore...if this is Syria or Russia or China or Cambodia...someone saying this and poking at people...their life span unfortunately will be very short...lucky fella...living in singapore...very lucky indeed can say all these....nuts.
