Just to follow what is happening in the US now will not yield anything significant. <br />There will be more participants sometimes down the road when more people face problems cause by policy implementations. NOW, the people have yet to be affected to a level where and when they 'tak boleh tahan'(cannot bear it anymore). However, more will face rising difficulty as the economy falters.<br />Any event with a purpose must bear the intended result and has the impact to show that it is not done for nothing or worse a failure. If it manages only to garner crowd liked those at Speaker Corner which me attended many times, it will be wasted effort.<br />Me thinks there will be a better time for it and meanwhile netizens can gather and highlight more hardships cause by poor/bad policies, malpractices in the market place and unethical deeds of professionals. <br /><br />Participation in an event such as 'occupying Raffles Place' is not going to make anyone a hero, as such me does not see cowardice relevant here.<br /><br />That is how i see it.<br /><br />My apology to anyone who finds my earlier comment distasteful.<br /><br />patriotAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8772491888812684500.post-63520101843389705112011-10-14T19:48:52.915+08:002011-10-14T19:48:52.915+08:00Singapore is not a member of OECD.
