THE FINAL DAVID CHUA CHUAN SEAH (DCCS) REPORT ON MY
OWN CASE AS AN OPPOSITIONIST WRITER RUNNING -- IN THE YEAR 2009 --
INTO A GREAT CONFRONTATION WITH THE SINGAPORE
GOVERNMENT
(ISSUED NOW IN ITS UPDATED AND REVISED EDITION
ON THIS DAY 29 APRIL 2009)
INTRODUCTION :
SUMMARY OF MY DEFENCE AS AN ALLEGED "CRIMINAL"
IN PLEADING NOT GUILTY TO THE CHARGE OF MY BEING
RESPONSIBLE -- ENTIRELY OR PARTIALLY -- FOR GIVING
THE SAFTI MILITARY AUTHORITIES "REASONS" IN ORDER FOR THEM TO
JUSTIFY THEIR IMPLANTATION OF MYSELF AS A
NATIONAL SERVICEMAN WHO HAD GONE AWOL IN THE YEAR 1972 :
(1) I am entirely responsible for the act of having gone AWOL from Kilo Company, SAFTI, in 1972 -- that and only that alone -- for reasons I had had at that time;
(2) I am NOT responsible -- not even partially -- for the subsequent implantation of myself by the SAFTI military authorities [who, firstly, based their decision to implant me on completely flimsy, unsubstantiated and unacceptable grounds; and secondly, proceeded to implant me -- as rightly and justly deserving, under SAF's military law, of an "official" (but on whose authority and on whose authorization? --not again!) punishment for having committed a MILITARY offence? (in which case, surely there should have been officially conducted and recorded investigations into the causes of, or reasons for, my AWOL; as well as into the kind of person I was then -- my personality, character, natural behaviour, thought process, philosophical beliefs, humanistic values, moral ideals, professional goals, and intellectual and cultural influences by conducting a military Court of Inquiry and Examination into my special case; and, lastly, by conducting an official military TRIAL then, shouldn't there? -- without obtaining my unconditional and unreserved consent, agreement, permission and acceptance?)];
(3) A distinction must therefore be clearly made -- and I want to emphasize this repeatedly and repetitively, if need be -- between my alleged responsibility for going AWOL then and my so-called "responsibility" (what?) for my being implanted in the first place! Yes, to state my stand here and now, again : I AM NOT -- IN NO WAY, ABSOLUTELY! -- RESPONSIBLE (NOT EVEN PARTIALLY) FOR MY BEING IMPLANTED BY THE SAFTI MILITARY AUTHORITIES IN 1972!
THAT IS ALL!
MY CASE FOR MY DEFENCE
MY QUESTONS FOR THE PROSECUTORS WITH REGARD TO THE CASE AS IT STANDS -- AND TO MY ALLEGED "RESPONSIBILITY" (OR "RESPONSIBILITIES") FOR BOTH (I) BEING AN UNWILLING AND UNHAPPY VICTIM OF IMPLANTATION BY THE SAFTI MILITARY AUTHORITIES; AND (2) TURNING OUT, NOT ONLY DURING THE COURSE OF THE LAST 36 YEARS OR SO (SINCE 1972, WHEN I WAS IMPLANTED) BUT ESPECIALLY NOW (IN THIS YEAR OF UTTER "IMMORALITY" AS A FREQUENT PATRONIZER OF PROSTITUTES IN GEYLANG), INTO SUCH AN UNQUALIFIED AND DISGUSTING MODEL FOR "IMMORAL" AND "OBJECTIONAL" CONDUCT, BEHAVIOUR AND ACTIVITIES -- AS A SINGAPORE CITIZEN; AS AN UNMARRIED MAN; AS A SENSITIVE, QUIET AND THOUGHTFUL HUMAN BEING; AND LASTLY, AND PERHAPS MOST IMPORTANTLY, AS A WRITER WHO CONSTANTLY SEEKS POPULAR RECOGNITION AND CRITICAL ACCLAIM.
THE QUESTIONS I AM
SUBMITTING:
1. Why was an unmistakable MILITARY offence "regarded" or "treated" or turned into -- in later or subsequent years (yes, long after the occurence of the original MILITARY offence, committed by a young and idealistic soldier at that time) -- a (i) "criminal" offence; (ii) a "political" offence; (iii) a transformed case of "insanity"; (iv) a "socially objectional" behavioural abnormality that elicited all kinds of ABUSES (!) from people with private agendas and vested interests of their own; and (v) a strange case whereby the MILITARY offender could only be saved from MILITARY PROSECUTION and PUNISHMENT (probably by detention for a few weeks) only through being simply (and only) unwillingly implanted (!) -- a crucial act that turned a potentially light military punishment (detention for a few weeks' duration) into a more-than-36-years span of constant and, sometimes, relentless pressure, disturbance and punishment (emotional, psychological, sexual, physical, intellectual, mental, social, moral, financial and political) of a private citizen, of a responsible man, and, most of all, of a serious, thoughtful, sensitive and ambitious writer?
2. Why didn't SAFTI military authorities conduct a thorough -- for such was the seriousness of the MILITARY offence, wasn't it? [considering that its eventual "solution" involved a most serious act of human implantation!] -- investigation into the REASONS or CAUSES for my AWOL offence in 1972 ?
There was not a single interview or meeting or any sort of communication or correspondence whatsoever -- written or verbal -- that took place between any representative figure from the SAFTI authorities and myself !
For instance, the offence was treated as a military (?) one that had a "psychological" origin or cause -- namely, as a result of "schizophrenia" or "homosexuality"! There were no medical certification or authorization whatsoever, in both instances -- even on reasonably acceptable grounds for suspecting that it might be a case of "psychological" abnormality -- which required me to be (somehow!) implanted (!) -- in order for me to be able to adapt or to adjust to army life -- thus, serving as an assistance to the lightening of my heavy predicament as an overly sensitive soldier, who had to be "helped" to adapt to army life, because of my medically certified "overly sensitive nature", and thus to be able to complete my National Service successfully; AND, also, as a "solution" to my unwillingness to be prosecuted for my military offence in the first place (as implied, indicated, reflected or expressed -- directly or otherwise --by me in a typewritten letter to my Officer Commanding Kilo Company in SAFTI in 1972) and thus avoiding the expected experience of being punished by detention under military law -- something that would, in fact, reinforced my already negative impression of, and attitude towards, the army, military life and the military authorities in general -- yes, with a heightened and intensified sensibility, attitude and impression which would, in the event, make me even more ill-adjusted to army life -- which my early reaction to even such a brief period of army experience up to that time had already make me decide to go AWOL from my camp, to protest my conscientious objection to military life and to the Military Establishment in general! Yes, my going AWOL in the SAF was the result and the culmination of many years of -- prior to my enlistment in the SAF on 20.12.1971 and long before my introductory experiences as a recruit for three months in Telok Paku Camp and later, for a short time too, as a Section Leader trainee in Kilo Company, SAFTI -- being gradually influenced by the anti-establishment reading materials that I had been reading, from various sources of political, literary and philosophical literature -- and, also, to a certain extent, of being a keen fan, for quite sometime already by then, of anti-establishment rock singers and groups -- as revealed in my almost obsessive listening to anti-war and pro-peace protest rock songs that I was exposed to in my youth! And long before my enlistment into the SAF, those anti-establishment views and anti-war or anti-military influences, and the resultant anti-military stance and attitude that I already had by that time were, yes, quite easily, reinforced by my initial army experiences during the course of those early few months as a newly enlisted National Serviceman in the SAF -- first, as a recruit and then subsequently, as a private undergoing Section Leader training, in my first taste of, and introduction to -- as it was eventually encountered by my unprepared self then -- yes, the BITTERNESS of ARMY LIFE!
3. As there was no official investigation whatsoever (beyond a medical diagnosis that merely indicated psychological sensitiveness -- and hence, ill-adjustment or ill-adaptability to army life), officially, and thus, NO handling of, and no dealing with, the AWOL case as, in fact, a MILITARY OFFENCE (and hence, not requiring any reprimand, punishment, court-martial, or suspension from duty); I should, in fact, NOT be regarded or recognised as an offender (military or otherwise) both in the first place and also in the final analysis!
The question is, then: WHY must I be PUNISHED -- for that is in fact how I view my plight and predicament as an unwilling and unhappy implantee -- for more than 36 years now for NOT committing ANY offence (military or otherwise) in (and since) 1972 -- the year of my implantation, an official "solution" -- decided upon, and carried out, by the military authorities in SAFTI in 1972 -- purportedly to "help" me (i) firstly, from being prosecuted (and hence punished) under military law for going AWOL [was there not an unproven assumption already then that I was guilty of committing the MILITARY offence (of AWOL) in the first place?] ; and then (ii) secondly, to "enable" me to adapt to army life (so as to complete the rest of my National Service days in the SAF in a more emotionally and psychologically agreeable and stable manner -- after being implanted)?
Question Number One:
How could the prospect of a few weeks (or even months) of military detention and punishment (no matter how "harsh" and "unbearable" it might be) be used as a legitimate and rational excuse for subjecting me to more than 36 years of, in fact, truly harsher and even more unbearable "detention" and "punishment" -- of an even more grave and severe and UNACCEPTABLE kind?
If my inability to adapt to army life is so severe and so serious and so grave (resulting in an act of AWOL that would require such an astounding more-than-36-years span of almost daily punishment and constant detention -- through my being implanted and subsequently controlled by military authorities and related personnel working in the surveillance -- or security and intelligence -- services or governmental departments), why wasn't I SIMPLY DISCHARGED from military service in the first place then -- on purely and obvious military ground then?
If I was, however, regarded with suspicion and proof, as a "political" threat (and, hence, as a danger or liability to the SAF, then why wasn't I -- being surely unable to be cleared by the authorities for security reasons! -- then why, yes, WHY, why was I not SIMPLY DISCHARGED from my National Service in the SAF then -- on military ground?
Question Number Two:
The above probing examination of the most crucial event of my National Service experience -- namely, my going AWOL -- leads me now to pose another related question:
On what (Top Secret?) ground(s) was I implanted, instead (!), as a so-called "rational" or "compassionate" solution (?) to my AWOL-caused "predicament" then -- as a (yet unproved, to this day) "homosexual" [based on my careless use -- or rather, misuse -- of the one single fucking word ("effeminate") to describe myself in a hastily conceived and rashly written letter to my Officer Commanding Kilo Company, SAFTI, then -- to express my troubled and agitated feelings and apprehensions regarding my AWOL and especially its likely or feared consequences]?
Was I trying, indeed, to escape from being prosecuted and then punished by the military authorities in SAFTI by using the pretence of being a "homosexual" [as "cleverly" or "subtly" implied (!) by my use of the word "effeminate" to describe myself in a long handwritten letter, which I finally reduced to a one-page typewritten letter, using the office typewriter in the Medical Centre, and which I addressed to Captain Lee Kum Cheok (OC, Kilo Company) -- indicating that I wanted to be excused from military prosecution and punishment as a physically weak and "unmanly" soldier who had gone AWOL without thinking carefully about the consequences of committing such a military offence]?
Yes, that was the AWOL connection or issue! What about the actual implantation connection or issue? Was I a proven "homosexual" who, presumably, had accepted, approved, consented to and granted my permission to the SAFTI military authorities to IMPLANT me (secretly and yet officially) -- an act which was to change, decidedly and decisively, the entire course of my life as, especially, even in those early days as a young man, a basically obedient and law-abiding citizen, a sensitive, thoughtful and quiet human being, and as a burgeoning, aspiring writer -- who was, back in those days, already aiming highly and also striving committedly to achieve the goals I had set out for myself, early in those days of my youth!
4. My well-considered GROUNDS for BOLDLY accusing the SAFTI military authorities of NOT understanding, as thoroughly as possible [with, perhaps, the aid of psychological, clinical and medical tests and with other methods of assessing my biographical background and of ascertaining my personality traits and character profile -- including my cherished values and principles, my learned or acquired ideas and beliefs, my subscription to certain ideals and convictions (yes, important factors that would have persuaded them to choose a RATIONAL decision on, or an acceptable and justifiable course of action, for a wise and humane -- and practical and realistic -- solution to, and handling of, my -- with the benefit of hindsight -- unique and unusual AWOL case then, back in the year 1972)] :
(a) I'm not, by nature, adaptable to army life (or to militarised and highly organized hierarchical human structures, whose functioning and effectiveness are based on POWER relationships -- or, in other words, on the assertion of AUTHORITY and CONTROL over those who are lower-ranking or who are holding subordinate positions);
(b) Because of (a), I had already, by the time I was enlisted into the SAF, become a secret or private conscientious objector -- in my mind -- to the army, to ANY army or military establishment generally; I had, in other words, become an intellectual protestor, dissident, critic, dissenter and (then aspiring) non-conformist or individualistic writer [even as far back as those early days in my young adulthood -- with the kind of in-born or acquired attitudes, beliefs, convictions, and values (which were further moulded, influenced and cultivated by my wide and intensive reading of anti-establishment literature from diverse sources of publication) -- which would NATURALLY render me UNFIT for the anti-intellectual and regimented, disciplined, authority-based, control-centred, and obedience-demanding lifestyle, behaviour and even thought-processes that were expected of me -- especially when NOTHING that I, as an aspirant to becoming a refined and cultivated intellectual-writer, had seen, observed or witnessed (until I went AWOL in my then as-yet brief period of military experience) was able to make me CHANGE my mind -- yes, my attitudes, beliefs, values, etc. -- about the army and its regimented lifestyle]!
(c) And hence, because of (b), why, may I ask now, why didn't the military (or civilian) authorities working in SAFTI then approach these problems of mine -- (i) my "sensitiveness" (to the harshness and difficulties posed by army life); (ii) my, in other words, "ill-suitability" and "ill-adaptability" to the highly demanding (especially physically) requirements and expectations of both military training and daily regime; and, lastly, and most importantly, (iii) my so-called "homosexuality" [as alleged, presumed, believed, (mis)understood or wrongly perceived -- without any rational or justifiable basis for establishing its "truth", and, unfortunately, with all the disturbing and troublesome implications and consequences that were attendant to such an insensitive, inept, dishonest, and personally-motivated "labelling"or "objective" reading of my actions, words and behaviour then (and of its future influence on my subsequent mental and emotional conditions) -- one that would have invited both suspicion, by others, of such a supposedly rational and objective "perception" or "understanding" of my supposed abnormality as a "psychological" constitution, and also outright rejection (or abuse) by many discerning people who were studying my AWOL case then, of such an unbelievably irresponsible, dishonest and inept attempt at "solving" my problem as an AWOL offender -- based on their total MISUNDERSTANDING! of my PROBLEMATIC situation then with the decision made by certain members of the TOP BRASS in SAFTI in 1972 to implant me] -- yes, why didn't they approach my AWOL case by SIMPLY CHOOSING THE SIMPLEST (AND MOST RATIONAL AND LOGICAL) DECISION OR COURSE OF ACTION -- namely, by SIMPLY DISCHARGING me, on these above-mentioned "MILITARY" grounds (whether honourably or otherwise), from National Service in the SAF then? (Whether or not such a discharge was honourable or not -- or acceptable to me or not -- is irrelevant to my main purpose of understanding the case, which has been, for too long already, COVERED UP by all the military personnel or officers involved in it -- and, also, to my arriving at a final and positive CLOSURE to the whole issue.)
(d) Furthermore, to go further into our inquiry into the case, in addition to the "MILITARY" grounds just mentioned, didn't I also qualify for such a simple and unconditional discharge on so many OTHER NON-MILITARY grounds as well -- namely, on my political, intellectual, moral, and occupational or professional (yes! this too indeed -- in terms of my professional ambition to be a serious, thoughtful and refined writer!) -- grounds?
NOTE TO THE READERS:
ON THE DEVIOUS AND DISHONEST WAY IN WHICH THE SURVEILLANCE AUTHORITIES HAVE BEEN TRYING TO IMPLICATE ME -- IN THIS PARTICULAR INSTANCE -- AS A "HOMOSEXUAL" (IN ORDER TO "JUSTIFY" THEIR SUPPORT FOR -- AND THEIR COVER-UP OF -- THE GRAVE, SEVERE AND UNFORGIVABLE MISDEED COMMITTED BY THE MILITARY AUTHORITIES IN SAFTI IN 1972 -- NAMELY, THEIR IMPLANTATION OF MYSELF, AS THEIR "SOLUTION" TO THE PROBLEMS CAUSED BY MY GOING AWOL FROM MY KILO COMPANY IN SAFTI THEN :
MY LAST WORD (OR QUESTION) ON THIS VITAL PERSONAL MATTER :
Is it necessary to even defend myself by mentioning here -- publicly, UNAMBIGUOUSLY and openly -- what is, and has always been (since I was born on 30.7.1953 -- slightly more than 55 years ago, dear patient, intelligent, discerning and observant readers, who presumably and gratefully have been following my sometimes confusing and conflicting accounts of my life so far as an unwilling and unhappy implantee!) -- yes, to repeat here with emphasis, what is and has always been, my NATURAL and hence, INNATE sexual orientation -- namely, my confident, bold and powerful HETEROSEXUALITY [not to mention my undisguised amorous love of, and fondness for, frequent close physical and intimate -- and, in particular, sexual -- contacts, relations and (unapologetically non-romantic) involvement (with a constant stream of available, willing, obliging, cheerful, facially attractive and physically desirable -- and preferably -- young women and matured girls)]?
5. It is MY RIGHT to dispute those claims that challenge such a legitimate right -- that the IMPLANTATION of myself by the military authorities in SAFTI in 1972 is ILLEGAL -- simply put! It is an ILLEGAL action, based on an unacceptable and unjustifiable -- and, also, unnatural and unexpected -- yes, to this very day -- yet-to-be-justified -- DECISION that was made (either through ineptitude or dishonesty) by the conceited and self-concerned SAFTI military authorities in 1972 ! Or was there, in the first place (and now, in the final analysis) just one single person who actually had had the power to authorize my implantation -- without having obtained my unconditional consent or approval, and who thus had to be held entirely responsible, solely and ultimately, for making such a crucial and life-changing event and decision in 1972, one which revealed, to repeat with emphasis again, and, in this case, either his unforgivable and unacceptable INEPTITUDE or his extremely objectional and highly abusive DISHONESTY -- involving, AS I NOW SUSPECT THAT IT DID, and TO WHICH I WOULD NOW POSE MY PERTINENT QUESTIONS : about his own morality; his sexual inclinations or proclivities (to be kind to him) or his sexual perversities (to be brutally truthful and frank); his MOTIVES : Was he genuinely trying to "help" me to adapt to army life? And how, and in what way, could my implantation allow him or his subordinates or colleagues to "help" me work and live and rest, as a soldier, positively, productively, meaningfully and beneficially -- in a genuine sense? Or was I intended and supposed to "help" him and his subordinates or colleagues, instead, by virtue of my being implanted on the basis of a twisted, dubious and distorted logic (that, for instance, regarded my use of the word "effeminate" to imply, indicate, mean or admit, indirectly or subtly, my "homosexuality"!) -- to "help" myself?; and, finally, his obviously dubious INTENTIONS?
Even up to this very day and moment, I still can't fathom his (and his colleagues' and subordinates') true and actual intentions -- (Are you listening?) -- which, according to my vast, varied, rich and complex experiences, and to my well-acquired, well-absorbed, and continually expanding and improving knowledge of human and current affairs -- even as an expectedly apathetic, disillusioned, demoralized, unwilling and unhappy implantee, for more than 36 years now, and also because of the fact that these INTENTIONS have been changing throughout these years, depending on so many factors -- personal, public, and environmental, just to cite a few! (Are you still listening?)
6. In conclusion, and in response to the just-written (and extremely short) last question (in deliberately bracketed blanket security, for the intelligent involvement of INSIDERS only) that ends that last sentence/remark of mine in (5), I am declaring my position, now, on this particular and important matter:
I will, too, keep shifting and changing my INTENTION -- as to whether or not I would want, or am willing, to oblige, accommodate, co-operate, accept, agree -- in short, to come to terms with (i) the reality of my unacceptable, unjustifiable and unforgivable implantation -- in the first place; and (ii) my realisation that I've lost and wasted more than 36 years of my life under the implantation effects and influences -- and, even more significantly, under those long, long, long nightmarish years of often idiosyncratic, illogical, moronic, demonic and, most importantly, extremely DISRESPECTFUL and highly INSULTING covert control by the ubiquitous surveillance authorities -- yes, the intelligence and security agents working for the Singapore Government, under TOP SECRECY, with MILITARY precision and constancy (and with all their deliberately calculative, greedy and self-interested manipulation and handling of the latest and most modern scientific surveillance equipment, devices, and gadgets -- and employing other applicable general or specific surveillance techniques and technologies) -- yes, all these facts of my life so far which, in my personal judgment, and with good justification too, I consider, claim, regard, and maintain as having had --and are still having -- mostly BAD, NEGATIVE and SELF-DESTRUCTIVE consequences for, and effects on, my personality and character -- with all their related values, ideals, qualities, ideas, principles, convictions, goals, needs and beliefs (all of these being, as they have been and still are, externally provoked, prompted and induced! They are, to me -- without my need to accept any official excuses and explanations from the official governmental perpetrators of -- and for --such cruel practices and examples of inhumane conduct -- UNWELCOMED, UNDESIRABLE, NON-BENEFICIAL, MEANINGLESS and UNPRODUCTIVE! I have never been able to accept such underserving ill-effects on, and the resultant sad outcome of, a miserable and disappointing life like mine so far, especially in regard to my professional ambition to be a published -- and I don't mean in the ELECTRONIC media but specifically in my stubbornly preferred PRINT media! -- WRITER (and also with regard to my nature as a highly amorous, frequently horny, proudly heterosexual and confidently masculine man; or, further, with regard to my aim of living my life as a rational, well-read and compassionate human being; and, finally, with regard to my insistence that I am basically a law-abiding and thinking Senior Citizen!
IT IS MY OWN LIFE; BUT WHAT IS THE GOVERNMENT'S AIM?
I DEMAND TO BE SET FREE!

GOVERNMENTAL THIEVES
MY OPEN REPORT ON THE DISAPPEARANCE (OR
LOSS) OF MY PERSONAL/PRIVATE PROPERTY --
FROM SOMEWHERE OUTSIDE MY HOUSE :
MY OPEN PERSONAL NOTICE TO
THE CITIZENS OF THE WORLD
(ON THE ART OF GOVERNMENTAL STEALING)
FIRST REPORT :
I, David Chua Chuan Seah (NRIC No: S0028486F), a writer by profession, and earning currently about S$600.00 per month, and who is also, inexplicably, presently seeking Financial Assistance from the North West Community Development Council, am openly reporting the equally inexplicable and unbearable loss, on 6.12.08 (Saturday) -- due to suspected theft by governmental officers -- of my important documents (contained and secured in an arch file), which, together with a desk calendar (for 2009 -- with scribblings and notes of a very private and personal nature); 2 intellectual (American) magazines (The American Scholar and Lapham's Quarterly); and 2 notebooks (with my personal and private comments and other contact information, etc.), I had placed inside a brown-coloured carrier-bag, and which was, at sometime in that Saturday afternoon, somehow -- but expertly and unintentionally abetted by my own carelessness and forgetfulness -- stolen from my personal possession.
The personal documents mentioned above that were stolen are actually printed copies of articles that I had written SECRETLY during the course of all these past 36 years or so, and which were only intended by me for future electronic publication, through my posting or blogging activities, in the Internet, for open public reading at some appropriate future date and time. Fortunately, I had also made extra photocopies of these articles beforehand -- and which I have now used as vital sources of factual materials and of crucial information [for the writing of my probing and questioning report/essay, entitled THE DAVID CHUA CHUAN SEAH PAPERS (The DCCS Papers), which has just been published as the latest posting in this particular blog] -- on, and with the accompanying disclosure of, certain key moments and facts relating or pertaining to my AWOL as a Section Leader trainee in 1972 from my Kilo Company in SAFTI -- an event which has, up to now, been deliberately and cleverly shrouded with much secrecy, mystery and misleading misinformation.
COMMENTARY :
I WOULD NOT HAVE PUBLISHED THIS ARTICLE, "THE DCCS PAPERS", HAD THE ABOVE-MENTIONED PERSONAL DOCUMENTS, CONTAINING VITAL INFORMATION AND CRUCIAL FACTS ABOUT MYSELF AND MY AWOL EXPERIENCE, AND UPON WHICH THIS ARTICLE IS BASED, NOT BEEN MADE TO DISAPPEAR -- OR CAUSED TO BE "LOST" -- FROM MY PERSONAL POSSESSION, UNDER SUCH A STRANGE, SUSPICIOUS, MYSTERIOUS AND SEEMINGLY INEVITABLE CIRCUMSTANCE! IN OTHER WORDS, DEAR READERS, I WAS COMPELLED TO DISCLOSE THE FACTS AND TO PROVIDE THE NECESSARY QUESTIONS PERTAINING TO SUCH A KEY AND MOMENTOUS EVENT IN MY LIFE -- NAMELY, MY GOING AWOL IN 1972 AS A NATIONAL SERVICEMAN -- AN ACT WHOSE CONSEQUENCES AND RESULTANT IMPLICATIONS FOR MY LIFE AS A MAN, HUMAN BEING, CITIZEN AND WRITER WERE TRULY ASTOUNDING, IN THEIR SETTING OF THE COURSE OF MY RESTRICTED LIFE -- AS AN UNWILLING AND UNHAPPY IMPLANTEE. (IT WASTHE SINGLE AND MOST SIGNIFICANT TRANSFORMATION OF MYSELF -- OF MY BEING -- WHICH I HAD BECOME OR TURNED INTO, AS IT WAS NEVER EXPECTED, PREDICTED OR INTENDED, BACK THEN 1972 AT SAFTI, WHEN I WAS IMPLANTED WITHOUT MY PERMISSION AND CONSENT. THE "SOLUTION" TO MY PLIGHT NOW AND PROBLEMATIC SITUATION THEN -- CAUSED BY MY GOING AWOL IN 1972! -- WAS JUST ONE AMONG MANY POSSIBILITIES AND ALTERNATIVES!).
SECOND REPORT :
I, David Chua Chuan Seah (NRIC No: S0028486F), a blogger by circumstance and a writer by choice and profession, am a kind, caring, concerned and considerate house-owner. (My house is located at : Blk 264, Yishun Street 22, #10-145, Singapore 760264.) As a home-owner, I look after my household items or properties well -- keeping them as safely and as securely as I can. So it was with great surprise and consternation that I discovered the mysterious disappearance (or loss?) of my own personal documents -- from the sanctity and safety and security of my own strongly guarded or defended (i.e., soundly locked) HDB flat [on 7.12.08, SUNDAY]!!
Question :
Who had caused the DISAPPEARANCE (or "LOSS") of my important documents [computer print-outs and also photo-copies of my numerous essays or articles that have been appearing regularly in my actively maintained -- and hugely popular and influential -- personal BLOGS] ( http://afighterandalovertoo.blogspot.com and http://trainofmypresence.blogspot.com ) ] ?
Are those who claim to be "trustworthy", "honest", "good", "able", and "caring" leaders and followers in the Singapore Government willing or prepared to discuss the real causes of, the actual reasons for, and the implications of such a great (and not just in a symbolic sense) disappearance (or "loss") of my personal documents at a time like this -- for me and for my future prospects as a credible and honest writer?
There is only one possible explanation for such an inexcusable act of thievery by government officers : These guilt-ridden (certainly hardly innocent) snoopers and surveillance officers have emerged -- after having entered my flat, so secretively, stealthily and deviously, and then stealing my already-mentioned personal documents, by engaging the professional and secret services of a trusted locksmith, to unlock my reasonably bolted and locked main front door, while I was asleep in the bedroom! -- as SAVIOURS and DEFENDERS of the nation of Singapore!
COMMENTARY :
Are you trying to control me -- by stealth? Yes, by stealing from me? My own property?
Don't you -- haven't you already, yet! -- realize that the LOCK -- MY LOCK! -- to MY DOOR -- yes! MY DOOR -- is made of good, pungent and stern stuff? (My Door -- which leads to my NOTABLE AND NECESSARY ideas and comments -- is sacred! my door -- YES, MY LOCK, too -- is engaging, sometimes, and imposing, at other times! It is often self-effacing but always supremely confident! (Are you aghast at what I've just said? So much for your exciting year, in which you're restricted in your movements and thoughts! And so much for your "goodness", "ability", and "caring" nature!)
My response to such governmental misdemeanour : I have absolutely NO interest in you people, you fucking idiots!
Lastly, if some unexpected turn of events should occur (due to a sudden change of mind and of heart in some people -- from their elevated positions of power and responsibility), please contact me, dear readers, via my Residential Address [Blk. 264, Yishun Street 22, #10-145, Singapore 760264] -- and do let me know in advance [my handphone no. : 82654077] -- should you happen to DISCOVER the re-appearance of my "lost" items somewhere in Singapore (where else?) -- to conclude the solution of a strange and mysterious case of a disappearing act -- by the honourable men and women working in the Singapore Government -- of the highest quality and distinction!
Thank you very much.
