Genocidal Thoughts

Adolf Hitler's "final solution" (German: Die Endlösung) was not the only method of eradicating an ethnic identity. The gas chamber is not the only recourse available to efficiency experts motivated by political agenda.

In the 1998 International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, the trial of Jean-Paul Akayesu, mayor of Taba Commune in Rwanda, established precedents that rape is an element of the crime of genocide.  It found that sexual assault was systematically perpetrated against Tutsi women, an integral process to destroy the Tutsi ethnic group, manifesting the nefarious Hutu intent to breed out the Tutsi race.

According to Amnesty International rape is now used as deliberate military strategy rather than opportunistic rape and pillage of previous centuries. Gita Sahgal, writer, documentary film maker and co-editor of "Refusing Holy Orders: Women and Fundamentalism in Britain", said in 2004 that it is a mistake to think such assaults are primarily about "spoils of war" or sexual gratification. She said rape is often used as a way for attackers to perpetuate social control and redraw ethnic boundaries, "Women are seen as the reproducers and carers of the community."

The statistic about 4-in-10 marriages involving foreigners is not new. In 2008, a journalist wrote about globalisation creating more chances for locals to meet, and tie the knot with non-citizens ("Four in 10 S’poreans marry foreigners", Mavis Toh, 14 oct 2008). One suspects the actual number must be higher in 2013, now that we know about the liberal immigration policies that were instituted on the quiet over the years.

The thinning of the Singaporean core started when dialect programs were taken off free-to-air broadcasts. Fewer senior citizens, during this coming Chinese New Year reunion gathering, will be able to comprehend the exchange greetings of their grandchildren, thanks to the language barrier. Come 2030, we may not have a Chinese New Year, Hari Raya Puasa or Deepavali. With 50 percent of the population dominated by invasive foreign elements, they will be demanding their own cultural celebrations, like the Burmese Buddhist New Year ("Thingyan"). Ice kachang will be replaced by the Pinoy's halo-halo (already available at Lucky Plaza). The 6.9 million figure is not the only horror in the Population White Paper, the demise of the Singaporean identity is the worst scenario.

  2. How can a country be yours if less than half (minus new citizens)are home grown, if the minority has to undertake national defense and severely handicapped by it in studies & work? From independence to surrender in less than 100 years, less than 3 generations.

  3. It is all right to mock them. But the seriousnes of the situation may escape the reader. Before this madness the Chinese in Singapore comprise mainly the Cantonese, Hokkiens, TeochewS, Hakkas and the Hainanese from southeast China. As late as the 1950s I remember that marriage between these groups were frowned upon. It took more than 100 years to create a Singapore identity. Now we have in our midst hordes of other groups from all over China whose spoken language is a challenge for "locals" to comprehend. Add the Burmese,Thais,Vietnamese, etc and you can imagine the problems we face. The Indian community comprise overwhelmingly Tamils and that is why it was and is still the official language. But many of the new immigrants from India are from the north and their official language is Hindi.The White Paper treats all immigrants as a statistic making no differentiation between their disparate language and customs, let alone their suspect loyalty to the nation. How can we maintain the Singaporean identity? Their "core " Singaporean concept is a fantasy. How can half the population bring the other half into their way of life without causing friction? A case in point is the mainland Chinese family objecting to the cookikng of curry by the local neighbour.The local had to give way, not the other way round. The destruction of the local fabric has already begun and will only get worse if the powers that be have their way.

  6. If half of the population is going to be foreigner, first they might as well do away with the 3 official languages Mandarin, Tamil & Malay or even add more official languages such as Tagalog, etc.

    Then is there any need for these new immigrants to learn our National Anthem if they can't even understand a single word of Majulah Singapura?

    Divide & rule will be as easy as ABC for our leaders. They only have to ask the internet brigade to instigate one group against another and the votes for the PAPigs will just come pourng in ?

    If it does happens, isn't that both evil & wicked ?

  7. Its a very serious topic, but not without some irony.

    Bringing in foreign adults, fully formed and cultured in their homeland is the key problem - they will not and will be encouraged by PAP policies not to integrate. However their kids born locally (if any) or who are going to the neighborhood kindergarten here speak and behave exactly like ours, ie singlish with all the KS traits. I say this because we have 3 teachers in our family - when it comes to meet the parents sessions, the contrast between these little kids and their parents is easily noticeable. I wonder whether the chief eugenics cook realize this, or maybe his grandchildren never go to neighborhood kindergarten and his millionaire scholars hardly step into neighborhood schools to realize the pinoy, chinese, burmese, nepalese and even the new eurasians' offsprings born here are becoming like the "undesirable" locals. One day you will have a culture war between them and their foreign-born parents and grandparents.

  9. PAP has unload onto us its vision of a 6.9 million and people are still staggering from this killer punch. Note that although the govt keeps complaining we are not reproducing themselves, it doesn't merely aim to maintain the population size. It wants a gigantic leap in the population. It actually wants Singaporeans to overproduce themselves by a great deal, and if we can't do it, then import people! So we are not only a human digit, we are also expected to shag and produce like a rabbit.

    The answer is that the PAP govt sees increasing the population at breakneck speed to 6.9 million by 2030 as the perfect solution to save itself.

    First, as has been mentioned again and again, fresh FT imports, upon getting citizenship, vote PAP.

    Secondly, hey, the govt needs the ponzi demography! All that huge increase in population will automatically increase the GDP! All the additional wages that comes from an increase in the population, as well as housing, travel, entertainment, food and clothing expenditure, will push up our GDP, with the govt taking the credit for it. I mean, if our GDP increases by 100% to 200%, wouldn't it seem miraculous? And all the govt needs to do is to increase the population!

    Thirdly, now this is what makes PAP ponzi demography first class and way beyond anything any other country could do, notice that the "non-resident" population will increase the most -- from today's 1 million to a fantastic 2.5 million in 2030.

    Stop and ponder two points: (1) what does the govt mean by "non-resident" population? And (2) why is it so important to increase this group by 250% in just 17 years? Imagine China's population increasing from 1.3 billion to 3.25 billion in just 17 years. Which country in the world dares to be so reckless?

    Well, a "non-resident" still lives and work in Singapore. And he helps to push up the GDP like all residents (citizens & PRs). But because he's a "non-resident", he's not taken into account when we calculate per capita GDP (GDP produced by 1 resident in the year, a measure of the standard of living). Now, although increasing the population to 6.9 million will increase the GDP by leaps and bounds, it will by itself not increase per capita GDP UNLESS the "non-resident" population also increases, which is what the govt wants to do.

    In other words, what "non-residents" earn and spend in Singapore go to increase our GDP, but because he's "non-resident" he's not factored into the calculation for per capita GDP. So, although the population will be 6.9 million, when it comes to calculation of per capita GDP, the total GDP will be divided by only 4.1 million population (6.9 minus the 2.5 "non-residents"). This will make our per capita GDP shoot up to the heavens, and the PAP govt will take credit for raising out standard of living to a miraculous level.

    And all the govt needs to do to produce this miracle is to pump up the population, and making sure that the greatest increase comes from residents classified as "non-residents". What fantastic, reckless ponzi demography.

    2. Do we have a fascist government?

      Fascism is the marriage of government and business to screw the people (labour).

      Fascism is a political ideology that places the interests of individual citizens behind the interests of the state.
      This form of nationalism was employed by Nazi Germany and Italy under Benito Mussolini and was a main cause for World War II.

  10. According to a friend of mine, the lack of babies or the ageing problem is not really the cause of all our problems.

    It all had to do with votes. Or to be more exact, the downward trend of PAP losing more votes to the opposition. It they don't do something to arrest this trend, PAP will be out of power very soon just like how KMT once lost power due to the people's increasing unhappiness over KMT's cryonism involving Govt businesses & contracts.

    One particular PAP Minister just remarked today that by with the White Paper being planned for the next decade or two proved the Govt is a responsible one.

    But he conveniently forgot the fact that on the same token of argument, the current PAP Govt must be equally irresponsible for not having forward put any White Paper a decade or 2 ago resulting in so many current problems still remaining unresolved until now.

    Is he not an idiot to begin with trying to fool us with this type of statements ?

    They put all their eggs in one basket just to realize that it's being led by a single party who has no 20/20 vision; while having a less than 1/3 opposition party in the parliament who can't do anything to stop their genocidal rape against the core singaporeans, the very ones they pronounce to protect.

  16. What "Singaporean identity"? It was foreign settlers who displaced our island's original identity established by the Temasek fishermen, more foreigners who set up and founded the disparate Clan Associations, further foreign interlopers who laid down roots and took part in the 60's racial riots.

    I can't stand the constant chatter in Tagalog and Bengali as much as the next guy when I stroll down Orchard Road, but let's not kid ourselves... We would not even be talking about an "identity" today were it not for people who were once foreigners.

    It was foreigners who made Singapore.

    3. A Peranakan is a Malay and Chinese hybrid? That such a product is no longer Malay or Chinese is proof that one's cultural root can be compromised.

      Delete
    4. And your post is proof of your daftness.

      Firstly, a Peranakan is not necessarily a "hybrid" nor a "product" of the Malay and Chinese ethnicities. If you are capable enough to type, then you should be able to look up Google and Wikipedia for more information. I trust I shouldn't need to do that for you.

      Secondly, a Peranakan's roots in Singapore may be traced back to the 15th and 16th centuries, which is much further back than the history of many later settlers'. This allows Peranakans to form a more well-rounded view, compared to some Johnny-come-lately, of what should constitute a "Singaporean identity", a fact starkly illustrated by your ignorant post.

      Thirdly, you seem to have no inkling that a modern Singaporean's "cultural root", as you term it, is largely derivative of the cultural traditions and values of the thousands of foreign immigrants who left their homelands and settled here. Where do you think Singaporeans got the habit of celebrating Chinese New Year, Christmas and Thaipusam? The answer, dummy, is that we got it from the foreign settlers who brought their traditions along with them when they first came to our shores.

      I don't wish to waste more time educating you. In short, my point is that given our geographical location and history, it is difficult to say we have one singular and definitive "Singaporean identity" that could possibly be destroyed by more foreigners settling here. Our national identity has always been in a state of flux; just as the wind remains the wind even if it gets stronger or weaker or changes direction, so too will our identity remain even as it evolves and grows to accommodate even more settlers in the future.

    7. You cannot be serious.

      The posts at 10.37pm and 1.23am are mine. My point, which was a response to Tattler's last sentence, was made explicitly clear in those two messages.

      If you have nothing substantial to add then please stop responding.

      Delete
    8. According to Wikipeida:
      "Originally, the Peranakan were mixed-race descendants, part Chinese, part Malay/Indonesian." It also says that Peranakan culture has started to disappear in Malaysia and Singapore. Without colonial British support for their perceived racial neutrality, government policies in both countries following independence from the British have resulted in the assimilation of Peranakans back into mainstream Chinese culture.
      I feel sad for you, but we don't want that to happen to Singaporeans.

      Delete
    9. I see. So to you I'm not Singaporean but Peranakan, and it's sad what's happened to my culture. However, I'm sure you would LOVE the same thing to happen to all the Filipino people who've settled down here right?

      Ridiculous.

      The fact is that Peranakan culture has influenced Singaporean culture at large, and the opposite is true as well. It is impossible to talk about Peranakan culture without examining how it has evolved in Singapore and been affected by the Singaporean way of life. But that doesn't mean that Peranakan culture - or the Peranakan identity, as it were - has been lost; on the contrary there are still Peranakan traditions and customs, not to mention food, that survive to this day, despite what you perceive to be some sort of hostile assimilation.

      Again, this emphasizes my point that Tattler's charge of the possible "demise" of the Singaporean identity is nonsense. But then again, perhaps Tattler is playing to the peanut gallery: yours and the many other inane comments here certainly make a good case for that. I do wonder, though, based on what's been spouted by your ilk, whether you people are actually Singaporean at all. Surely you all cannot be so ignorant of your own country and countrymen?

I'm a westerner married to a Singaporean, and as most people in this situation will tell you, the nationality of my partner or of myself had nothing to do with our marriage. People marry, mostly, for reasons of the heart...how you can insinuate that foreign marriages are somehow a precursor to some form of genocide is really really f&cked up......you've lost all credibility.
