The humble Emperor Yeo

"Opposition" "Politician" Goh Meng Seng to PAP's George Yeo on the latter's Facebook:
Hi George,
Thanks for replying. I guess PAP will be more than a formidable opponent if it has more people like you with great humility.
....
I believe you will have that kind of humility to handle such [destitute] cases fairly.


The humble Emperor George Yeo showing his humility in Feb 1994:
"Remember your place in society before you engage in political debate... Debate cannot generate into a free-for-all where no distinction is made between the senior and junior party... You must make distinctions - What is high, what is low, what is above, what is below, and then within this, we can have a debate, we can have a discussion... people should not take on those in authority as 'equals'


While engaging the humble Emperor Yeo on Facebook, may I suggest "Opposition" "Politician" Goh also take the opportunity to question Emperor Yeo why His Majesty announced and then implemented a drastic reduction in the number of doctors that Singapore produce every year in the decade spanning 1990-2000. Is that the reason why now, of every 3 new doctors registered to practise in Singapore, 2 of them got their medical degree overseas? That's right, two-thirds of new doctors are foreigners or Singaporeans forced to study medicine overseas.

But before "Opposition" "Politician" Goh engages the humble Emperor Yeo in political debate, he had better educate himself on "what is high, what is low, what is above, what is below", lest he forgets his place in society and accidentally takes on the humble Emperor as his 'equal'.

LOL.

Btw, this is the video from which I learnt the phrase "Emperor Yeo":

To George Yeo:

Kindly remember your place in society before you engage in condescending remarks... Without the Singapore taxpayers, you would have no million dollars salary. Without the Singapore taxpayers, you wife and kids would have to work as maids in other countries. Without the Singapore taxpayers, you will only be the pathetic you, a lesser mortal at best.

You must make the distinctions - What is high, what is low, what is above, what is below, and then within this, we can have a debate, we can have a discussion... you should not take on those who pay your obscene salary as 'equals'... Without us, you are nothing.

Not happy, go see your MP loh.
