Why I Have Suffered 36 Years Of

Manipulated Life,

Of Puzzling History, And Of

Purposeless Behaviour

(Both Private And Public)




QUOTE NO. ONE:

I never submitted the whole system of my opinions to the creed of any one party of men whatever, in religion, in philosophy, in politics or in anything else, where I was capable of thinking for myself .... such an "addiction" is the last degradation of a free and moral agent.

THOMAS JEFFERSON (1743 - 1826)
AMERICAN STATESMAN, 3RD PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED TATES, AND PRINCIPAL AUTHOR OF THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE

QUOTE NO. TWO:

You cannot talk to a power politician as if he were a wise man.

THOMAS MERTON, "Symphony For A Sea Bird",
THE WAY OF CHUANG TZU (Boston & London: Shambhala, 1965)



I had foolishly gone AWOL from my company, based at Singapore Armed Forces Training Institute, where I was undergoing three months of infantry Section Leader training, sometime in early 1972. After a few days of wandering about, I returned to camp eventually and was quickly warded at the Medical Centre in SAFTI for observation.

I was an unobtrusive and quiet patient in the ward, while undergoing daily medical examination by the medical doctors there and also by the psychiatrists at a Government clinic at Maxwell Road, where I was referred to for specialist observation.

During the time I was resting as a patient in the Medical Centre, something serious and grave -- oh, Heavens! -- happened to me, which was to set the course of my future from then onwards. But what exactly did take place there and then?

This is a question of major importance to my life now and it has serious implications for my future as a writer. I've been waiting, since 1972, for this moment of truth-telling! This revelation of my actual status as a man, human being, citizen and writer -- with its purported role of an "implantee" (or agent or employee of the Singapore Government) will illuminate the rest of my life -- and allow me to see clearly ahead, on my road to professional success as a writer -- in Singapore, no less!

I will launch attack after attack -- against the Singapore Government for damaging my life -- with, especially, regard to my sexual needs -- and I will hold them responsible for any failure of mine now as a man trying to live out a normal life for the rest of my existence on this earth.

All I know is that I can remember many events, episodes and activities that I have had experienced during the last 36 years of my life -- as a "schizophrenic", a "molester", a "thief", a "violent" or "aggressive" man, a "PAP agent", a production worker, a low-level and humble clerk, a "mole", a "spy" -- yes, in other words, as a "government employee" acting in all these roles, guises and capacities which are all totally unsuited to my character, my personality, my values and principles, and my goals and real interests as a man, human being, citizen and aspiring writer!

The time for continuing to launch my anti-government sarcastic responses remains! My memory tells me if I am to embark on a serious and purposeful future course of action, I must attack the Singapore Government from now onwards. And I have been trying my best to do so -- except, on certain occasions, when, for some clear reasons -- moments of idiocy and imbecility -- under uninvited provocation!

I want to stress the gravity of the Singapore Government's mistake in "implanting" me, unofficially and without my consent or permission, in 1972 -- an act which was to result, for many years now, in its constant and conscious attempt and and effort -- by using the instruments of ministerial and state powers (the government,law, the police, etc.) to undermine my eventual (contemplated) success as a serious, quality writer unde (of published books -- and essays in important magazines)!

Today is the day for the Singapore Government to recognize and acknowledge, as the lawfully but unfairly elected rulers of Singapore, the upmost severity of my problematic situation. I have to regard myself as a case of Human Rights Abuses by the Singapore Government -- should this elected Democratic Government in Singapore fail to grant me my right to work as a professional writer.

I am not out to fix the government of Singapore -- no, not in any sense of the word. I am honestly trying to resolve my extremely difficult problem and my complicated present situation. Nobody up to now understands my problem, my situation, my predicament, my plight -- including my own cherished family members!

The choice is clear: Either the Singapore Government acts decisively on this vital matter of mine or it will have to answer to History.


Addendum:

All my revelations and exposure about surveillance officers and their activities are not aimed at undermining the Singapore Government's clear understanding of the issue at hand. I just want to EXPRESS myself -- my awareness, my knowledge, my knowingness -- after, especially, being for so long almost totally ignorant of what is crucially going on or taking place -- as a life-changing and life-affecting vital issue -- in this small country of my own and in the larger world too!

Let me declare that I regard the Singapore Government as entirely responsible for any failure of mine to work as a published professional writer (and to live with dignity and self-respect) -- and for any supposedly accummulated "debt" (of whatever kind) which it owed me (and for whose payment it has yet to make concretely and practically, in no uncertain or miniscule terms)! Does it still insist that it does not have any debt -- of whatever kind -- which it still owes me? [Had I not lost, missed, wasted and sacrificed so much? And had I not earned anything at all -- not even some monetary remuneration and even compensation, yes! -- for all my intellectual, moral, artistic and even physical efforts during these past 36 years of living as a reluctant and, sometimes, unhappy "implantee"? I just don't want to work, whether officially or unofficially, secretly or otherwise (except for a brief period at MSD in the days of long ago!), as a member of the governmental surveillance authorities -- be it as an intelligence or security officer or in any capacity or role. I am just INCOMPATIBLE with Government service!]

This is what is TROUBLING and PUZZLING to me -- as a rational man with some compassion of no small measure: How could anyone force me to work in any capacity or role or guise that I have absolutely neither the interest nor the qualities or the abilities to perform in -- to my own satisfaction and self-respect?

And I'm not going to join a political party just to reward the loyalty of activists -- former or current ones! I do want to serve the people, but only as a writer and not a a practising politician! But firstly, I must, after all these hopeless and miserable years, serve myself -- yes!, my own needs and goals!

I believe a great number of Singa0poreans are suffering from a disaffected relationship with and attitude towards the Singapore government! Andf they mustbe, this coming General Election, allowed tom express such disaffection at the ballot box. This is a cornerstone of true and genuine -- not cosmetic -- democracy! (And certainly, I am not going to be in politics to enrich myself or to exercise autocratic powers!) And I don't believe in Western conspiracies! Some leaders aremore interested in, or concerned with, Western bullying -- in the form of conspiracies, for instance, which they claim these Western powers are (or which they accuse them of) trying to use to undermine their positions in the political and social order (or themselves!) -- than in how they TREAT their OWN PEOPLE!

That grave mistake in "implanting" me was not accidental. I am very sure of that! It was a deliberate and calculated attempt to exploit my weaknesses and defects in order to serve an outcome which all members of the top brass in SAFTI at that time were keen to establish in their lives and which was based on a decision undertaken by the military top brass with such unforgivable lightness of consideration and with such unbearable lack of awareness of its severe implications to my own life and future -- should the outcome ever turn into a disastrous mishandling of my case and an unpardonable mistreatment of myself as a medical patient warded at a medical centre for simple medical observation and perhaps even professional treatment by qualified medical practitioners -- yes, for an admittedly rash and foolish act which, nonetheless, merely expressed my youthful idealism and naivete in those days.

But why, oh why? And why the cover-up all these years?

Was there ever such an example of total INEPTITUDE by members of what is publicly promoted and claimed as a supposedly "good" and "able" government? And are they really and truly interested in a GENUINE transfer of power -- and not in a cosmetic one? Is it going to be an admirable exercise in statesmanship? OR IS IT JUST A MATTER OF SIMPLY LOSING TOTAL CONTROL? WILL THE TRANSFER RESULT IN INCESTUOUS PARTITIONS OR DIVISIONS --AND THEN IN SHAMBLES? TRULY, IT WILL BE AN IGNOMINOUS END TO SO MANY YEARS OF "HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL" RULE -- ALBEIT A RULE BASED MOSTLY ON BLUFF! -- AND ALSO DAMN INSULTING THREATS AND TYPICALLY ABUSIVE AND CRUEL ACTIONS!

WOULD IT BE -- ASSUMING IT IS GOING TO BE A REALITY! -- A TIMELY (AND HENCE ORDERLY) TRANSFER OF POWER? OR WILL IT DEPEND ON EXTREMISTS FROM BOTH (OR MANY) SIDES OF THE POLITICAL DIVIDE: PLANNING, SCHEMING AND ORGANIZING -- FOR AN EVENTUAL FATAL END (OR JUST A BLOW) TO SUCH "OPENING-UP OF THE POLITICAL PROCESS", TO BE KICKED OFF INITIALLY BY A "GENUINE" -- AND NOT COSMETIC -- "TRANSFER OF POWER"?

THE POSSIBILITY OF THIS SO-CALLED "TRANSFER OF POWER" BECOMING, OR RESULTING IN, PHONY "LIBERATION" -- WITH INTENDED AND EXPECTED (BECAUSE PLANNED, CONCOCTED, MANUFACTURED AND INSTIGATED) BRUTISH AND IRRATIONAL CONSEQUENCES -- IS THERE FOR ALL TO SEE (IN ADVANCE) -- ESPECIALLY TO, AND FOR, THOSE IN-THE-KNOW: TO WITNESS, REMEMBER AND BE ON GUARD AGAINST!

I WOULD COUNSEL ALL THOSE WHO ARE TEMPTED, ENTICED, PROMPTED AND ENCOURAGED -- WHO, IN OTHER WORDS, ARE LIKELY TO BE CONCERNED WITH, OR BE INVOLVED IN, TO REGARD SUCH A "TRANSFER OF POWER" WITH CAUTION! THEY SHOULD ACT WISELY AND HONESTLY, AND, TO REPEAT, SHOW THE UTMOST CAUTION!

LEE KUAN YEW HIMSELF IS NOT THE UNIFYING PRINCIPLE IN THE LIVES OF MOST OF US! LET ME TELL YOU THIS: HIS DEATH ITSELF WILL NOT RESULT IN THE FATAL -- OR OTHERWISE -- END OF (OR BLOW FOR) THE PAP REGIME. IT IS, AFTER ALL AND ACTUALLY, NOT THE REMOVAL OF BIG, BIG, FUCKINGLY BIG EGOs THAT WILL CREATE PROBLEMS FOR THE ERSTWHILE SUCCESSFUL GOVERNMENT OF SINGAPORE.

WHAT THEN IS THE SOLUTION? WELL, MY HUMBLE AND UNPROFESSIONAL REPLY: REAL DIFFICULTIES MUST NOT BE LEFT TO RESOLVE THEMSELVES! SOME PEOPLE WITH INSIGHT, WISDOM AND UNDERSTANDING (AND NOT MERE KNOWLEDGE, INFORMATION AND INTELLIGENCE) -- PRESUMABLY THE CURRENT LEADERS -- HAVE TO BELIEVE IN -- AND TO PRACTISE WHAT THEY BELIEVE IN AND SAY (WHETHER PUBLICLY OR NOT) -- THE POLITICS OF RETREAT!

AND YOU DON'T NEED ALL THOSE FUCKING SWEET-TALKING PUBLIC RELATIONS OFFICERS TO HELP PREPARE THE GROUND FOR THAT -- OR TO KEEP UP BRAVE FRONTS FOR THEMSELVES IN ORDER TO DO THAT! (IT IS, I'M SURE, PRETTY HUMBLING -- EVEN HUMILIATING --FOR THEM TO ADOPT SUCH RETRACTION OR RETREAT FROM THEIR WORLD-FAMOUS BRAND OF POLITICS AND GOVERNMENT!) THAT IS ALL!

Surveillance Officers: We Don't Express Ourselves -- We Only React and Respond!

Intrusive, Disrespectful and

Upsetting

Surveillance and Control

by Intelligence and Security

Officers

of the PAP Government




Personal Testimony of A Citizen and Witness :

My Private and Public Life Has Been Turned Upside Down by the PAP Government. It Uses Images and Voices From People I Know Closely (Or Am Familiar or Acquainted With -- Such As Family Members, Friends, Ex-colleagues and Ex-classmates and Relatives) -- In Order To Control and Turn Me Into, By Turns An Enforcement/Security Agent and By Others An Obedient Subject. I Have Become One, After More Than 36 Years As A Reluctant, Poor, Unfortunate and Helpless (and Sexually Frustrated and Deprived -- Not to Mention Socially Unhappy and Love-starved) Victim of Governmental Manipulation and Control. These Surveillance Officers All Try To Exert Maximum Control Over My Own Mind, Heart, Soul and Body -- With the Practised Cunning, Determined Intention and Long-term Plan (For Such Implementation of the Deliberate Use of Often Illogical and Misleading Words, Images, Messages, Suggestions, Hints and Many Other Tricks and Methods of Communication -- Including, Quite Often, Downright Abusive Verbal Communication Techniques)!


Yes, instead of presenting and identifying themselves -- seriously, openly and clearly -- in order to respectfully and honestly make their own intentions known, and to express their own needs and desires, these surveillance officers (both male and female, whether separately and individually or as a combined unit), just contribute to my perturbation as a man, human being, citizen and writer!

Yes, these human monitors, censors, spies, agents, snoopers and controllers -- with the help of the latest and the most advanced scientific equipment and technological inventions and electronic/electrical products -- have been, day-in and day-out, second-after-second, minute-after-minute, hour-after-hour, day-after-day, week-after-week, month-after-month, year-afer-year, WORKING (real hard indeed!) to disturb me!

They have been insulting me -- my intelligence and my respect for myself; they have been controlling me -- to hide their own inadequacies and hang-ups. They have been expressing their grievances and complaints; they have been humiliating me -- while I am taking a shower, changing clothes, urinating, shitting, masturbating, and fucking women (and there were, and will still be, plenty of such women in my life as a resistant and dissident citizen)! They have been issuing "challenges" to me, knowingly or not; they have been pretending to be what they are not (and never will be!); they want to impress upon me that they are likely "winners", that they can achieve victories (moral?, intellectual?, what else?), that they can obtain "permanent" (sexual, especially) satisfasction, enjoyment, pleasure and success!

These surveillance officers (men and women) want to please themselves (in so many different ways that are -- secretively or not -- best known only to themselves); they want to react or to respond (to my expressions and self-expressions); yes, they want to ejaculate (how many times per week?); to avenge their "sufferings" (caused by me?) -- by making me suffer in turn. They want to avenge Lee Kuan Yew's humiliation under my deliberate, insulting and provocative verbal dismissiveness; and to avenge themselves on me -- their long-time (but long-suffering) nemesis! They want to punish me for daring to insult their modesty, saintliness, prudery, prudishness, holiness, religiousity, purity, perfection, infallibility, uprightness, goodness, ability and everything worth their while to mention (in support of their "feel-good" factor: yes, to feel "good", "able", etc., etc., etc.).

But, dear fellow citizens and readers, these surveillance officers NEVER want to admit to their own mistakes; they NEVER want to -- thus and accordingly -- CORRECT or REMEDY their own grave mistakes!

Instead, they choose to EXPLOIT such mistakes of theirs -- committed from the highest level of governmental authority to the lowest level of official subordination -- and turn them to their own advantage (and to gain farther advantages of whatever kinds) -- ALL IN THEIR OWN FAVOUR!

Finally, a word of reminder to these conformists who lack (STRONG) minds of their own: How can they continue to insult me, repeatedly -- and to "take me on" in things or subjects which I CAN commandeer? (and, further, in areas where I am the absolute and undeniable MASTER and COMMANDER -- the COMMANDANT, in effect?)!

I am a self-confident blogger, dissident, writer, manly lover, and, unarguably, a unique and original human being. I, namely: David Chua Chuan Seah, can never be "helped" to "enjoy" myself by these surveillance officers when their only motive for such "help" is to APPEASE their own guilt-ridden complex! For, as a writer, I must be asked (and be FULLY respected for my sincere and honest reply) : What are my own intentions? Are they noble and magnanimous? Or debased, degrading and abusive?

AND THIS IS MY REPLY : It is time for these surveillance officers to find out whether or not I am a liar (a pathological one?), a "mental defective", a "psychopath", or ... (what else?, you idiots!).

ADDENDUM:

This is my request: Do not exploit my weaknesses (e.g. for women and girls), including my soft-heartedness, my obsession with good hygiene, comfort, my meticulousness, my confidence, my resourcefulness, my urge to get close to women and girls (again!, but why not? : what, really or exactly, can I do, Sir?).

Please do not take advantage of my ignorance about many scientific facts, matters, inventions and technological advances -- whose knowledge or awareness of many people simply take for granted.

Please do not exploit my "stubborness"; please do not abuse my humility. Please do not corrupt and contaminate my precious thoughts (which are many indeed!) and also my few, perhaps too few indeed -- but nonetheless sensitive (sometimes very much so !) feelings!

That is all.

NOTES ON THE SINGAPORE GOVERNMENT'S WORLD OF SURVEILLANCE ACTIVITIES

WHAT IS WRONG WITH

THESE SURVEILLANCE

OFFICERS AND AGENTS?

(ARE THEY NUMSKULLS

OR DIRTY-MINDED NUTS?)



In Singapore, massive surveillance efforts, practices, planning and activities carried out by the MSD/ISD officers have replaced almost all forms of police enforcement work!

A man surely needs a WILLING maid -- for the satisfaction of his sexual NEEDS and social WANTS. Why, then, are the MSD/ISD officers preventing me from satisfying my sexual NEEDS and social WANTS by stopping me from meeting AND PHYSICALLY CONTACTING women who are NOT prostitutes?

Do MSD/ISD officers hold that a man is guilty until proven innocent? Why do they, for instance, assume that I am guilty of "immoral" behaviour (MOSTLY by patronizing prostitutes?!) without having ever proved that I am indeed so? AND on what grounds, may I ask precisely, am I "immoral"?

MSD and ISD officers have breached principles of privacy which are lawfully protected elsewhere in the world.

What is "surveillance" but another name for spying? To watch individuals covertly, to film them, to listen in to their conversations or communications, to know where they are at any given moment, to amass data on every aspect of their lifestyles -- this, surely, is precisely what a spy is paid to do! And this is exactly what our government and large corporations are doing, and attempting to do, to every individual in this nation!

However, it is worth contemplating a single question: What is the difference between "surveillance" and "spying"?

In Singapore, all Internet Service Providers are operated by government-controlled or related organizations;

Article 17, U.N. International Covenant On Civil and Political Rights, Ratified by the General Assembly (and the U.S.) in 1984:

No one shall be subjected to arbitrary or unlawful interference with his privacy, family, home, or correspondence, nor to unlawful attacks on his honor and reputation. Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference or attacks.

Brad Jansen, Deputy Director for Technology Policy at the Free Congress Foundation:

Massive surveillance is a poor substitute for real law-enforcement and intelligenvce work. It is an after-the-fact method of crime-fighting. It is not designed to to prevent crime.

MASSIVE WIRETAPPING DOES NOT EQUAL SECURITY. INSTEAD, WE HAVE ELECTED TO JEOPARDIZING OUR NATIONAL SECURITY in exchange for poor law enforcement.

Dollars and Sense

Not American should blindly accept
reduction of his liberty simply because a government official says so.
The choice is a nation of laws or a nation of whims. No liberty is possible
with the latter, no matter how important the cause.

-- Tom Deweees (Commentator)

Computer/Phone Privacy

Congressman Ron Paul:

In the last few decades, much of our
privacy has been lost. And it's not only computers that deserve the blame. They
have only been useful magnifiers of what the prying eyes of Big Brother have wanted to see all along.

On U.S. President-Elect Barack Obama and the New Changing World

Hope of Every Citizen of the World:

Progressive U.S. Domestic and Foreign Policies

U.S. President George Bush is, by common consent, the worst president in the history of the American Presidency. And his presidency has, to me at least, lasted too long. It had been a long campaign for both the two major political parties in the Unites States. U.S. Senator John McCain had tried hard to win the American voters over to his side. But now, there is a new begining, at this early stage in the 21st Century, for the United States and the world : racism, class-based politics and unilateralism have been happily defeated in the U.S. for the first time!

It was a momentous occasion in the U.S. for many proud, loyal and confident Americans of diverse political beliefs. With their different respective definitions and, understandably, often mutually opposing concepts, of "democracy", Americans are totally free to cast their votes, absolutely unhindered, for any candidate that they choose to support. On Election Day (4.11.2008), the glory and magnificence of American democracy was eagerly observed by leaders and citizens from all over the world. Not unexpectedly, there was to be no surprise for the carefully and intelligently observing followers of the latest news reports provided by the media on the General Election -- based on results of initial polls.

It turned into a historical victory for democracy -- and for Senator Barack Obama -- on the next day (5.11.2008), when the final results were known and announced to the whole world. Yes, Mr Obama is the first Afro-American Democrat to be voted by millions and millions of Americans (from both sides of the political divide) into power in the U.S.! (Thanks, Americans! God bless America!)

As the most important and influential new/next man in the White House, President-elect Barack Obama, a progressive/liberal political leader, will be gracefully and peacefully inaugurated at noon on a bright day on 20.1.09 -- as the 44th President of the United States of America!

People, not only in America, but also all over the world, are full of positive feelings and high expectations after Mr Obama's break-through victory -- and also, just as important, after the high gains made by the Democrats in the U.S. Senate.

President-elect Barack Obama is wise, charismatic, strong, thoughtful and -- for the first time in a long, long while -- genuinely full of goodwill towards all men and women, regardless of nationality, race, language, religion, gender and other related or key differences among humankind.
In particular, Mr. Barack Obama's working-class-hero background inspires many people. All it takes is for someone like Obama -- a leader whom many Americans has placed their trust in -- to enhance their life and to improve their lives.

But after the euphoria is over, a sharp sense of reality will set in: the U.S. economy is still in a mess -- a sad conservative legacy from the current leader George Bush. The date 5.11.2008 may be a time for U.S. citizens to remember -- as a time for substantial and real change (especially in the continuing struggle for human rights) -- but no political system (not even the well-established and highly-influential one in the U.S.) can change and improve the life and lifestyle of the voters (both inside the U.S. and in the entire world) in an effective, innovative and creative way -- unless there are leaders who inspire hope with their progressive policies, domestically and in foreign relations.

There will first be a transition period of 77 days (11 weeks) for U.S. President George Bush to graciously and smoothly (and perhaps gratefully?) hand over the American leadership to his new/next successor Barack Obama -- a period in which many fine points of political contentions and contentiousness will be expectedly thrashed out and discussed seriously at the highest level of political discourse. For instance, they should help each other to find a hopefully conclusive and, perhaps, possibly -- idealistically? -- non-violent solution to the difficult problem of getting out of Iraq and, instead, of staying on in Afghanistan -- in the continuing fight against genuine and real -- and not manufactured or concocted -- terrorism (conducted by, especially, religious extremists)!

And when President-elect Barack Obama eventually assumes the official role as the leader, not only of the U.S. but also of the world, he would still have to face the problems posed by threats to fundamental freedoms and rights belonging to citizens in the U.S. and to all those helpless victimized people all over the world. Mr Obama, with all his undeniable qualities, skills, experiences and knowledge, will still need a lot of luck to prove his ability as an effective, responsible and competent (especially economically) leader of the U.S. -- the Mother of Democracy.

Mr Obama, from my personal perspective and understanding of current political and economic issues, must be emphatically pro-freedom, pro-equality, pro-creativity, pro-inspiration and, most important of all, decidedly and decisively anti-dishonesty!

In foreign policies, as an Afro-American, he would be expectedly pro-Africa. And Africans need such a man, human being and American political leader like him!

Martin Luther King, Jr., the great Afro-American leader and intense champion of human and civil rights, was a perseverant political activist who dared to dream openly and publicly -- of freedom, equality and peace for all mankind. But he was not the only one then -- and he inspired the only one among Afro-Americans now who can effect political change, creatively and innovatively, in the U.S. (and in other democracies of the world).

May future President Obama intelligently and carefully delegate his authority and power to those among his subordinates and supporters -- the senators and congressmen, the appointed officials and paid civil servants, and other lower-ranking officers who are inspired and motivated enough by Obama's leadership qualities -- so that they can serve as strong bridges to link up strongly all the people of the world, beyond the constraints of blood ties, racial origins, country of residence, political or religious beliefs -- and be they winners or losers in the game of life -- and allow them, freely, autonomously and independently, to journey, each and everyone of them, in his or her own way, on his or her respective path, to the common destination of FREEDOM, GROWTH and PEACE for ALL!

There are many amongst us in this world who cry out -- openly and actively, or silently and privately (in this conflict-laden world of postmodernism and globalization, and of human greed and ineptitude displayed by covert surveillance authorities in governments all over the world) -- and this is not a secret at all! -- against the oppression, suppression and repression by many so-called realistic, pragmatic, Machiavellian and, surprisingly (!), "democratic" governments and regimes in the world.

Let us then dare to change -- by first dreaming! Now!

A Thinking Senior Citizen In A New World

Of Electronic Surveillance, Postmodernism and Globalization -- In The Life of Singaporeans

I'm getting poorer and poorer in my finances. But I'm becoming richer and richer in my mind. As my recent and latest blog entries/posts have shown, I'm also acquiring more and more power in my writing! In my love/sex/social life, I've achieved greater potency in my fucking of women. Yes, I'm more and more in almost complete control of my own life -- as a man, human being, citizen and writer/blogger! I'm in ascendancy!

And why am I in such a glorious state of mind, heart, soul and body? Well, it is simple: I'm becoming more and more well-informed and knowledgeable -- about the new world of electronic surveillance (especially in regard to politics, sports and education), postmodernism (especially in regard to literature and the arts), and globalization (in regard to trade, finance and commerce) -- with a clear and wide-ranging intellectual framework and reference to authoritarian and autocratic governments (like Singapore's)!

I now know more and more about postmodernist use of surveillance technologies -- and its application to, and influence on, the latest developments in the study of history, philosophy, literature; and in academic scholarship, scientific research, psychological studies, political practices, sexual relations, parenting, and yes, the writing (or authorship) of BOOKS!

Yes, the whole population of Singapore -- a global city -- is under electronic surveillance by the authorities (corporate and governmental)! We are all interconnected with one another -- poor, rich, not-too-poor and not-too-rich -- by the PAP Government's use of electronic surveillance technologies and techniques!

This is not a flippant, trivial, superficial and inconsequential article to put the Singapore Government in a bad light by offering supposedly "unobjective" comments and "twisted" or "distorted" facts! The PAP Government has to prove such an intentiion on my part in the first place. Facts are free -- if you seek them out conscientiously and intelligently; but my opinions and reflections are sacred. And I'm not just trying to promote serious, quality reading!

As an individualistic oppositionist and writer, who finds many aspects of our cosmopolitan city -- with its world-class companies and the best talents around, engaging in postmodernist, globalized and electronic surveillance activities, practices, methods, behaviour and lifestyles -- very unacceptable. I'm unapologetically defiant and totally "unorthodox" in my persistent exposure and scrutiny of such disturbing manifestations of UNEQUAL POWER RELATIONSHIPS between corporations and the government on the one side and the helpless, poor and unfortunate citizen-victims on the other side. I'm certainly justified in having such anti-PAP and anti-LKY (and hence, pro-opposition) attitudes! I'm, after all, a progressive VOICE of REASON! And I will scrutinize and expose in the name of FREEDOM -- man's most important and perhaps greatest idea!

I cannot remain silent and neutral. I know too much already. I must speak up and out -- and even scream and shout, if necessary! I'll pilot my little airplane, from now on, with a unified, well-rounded and well-balanced vision of the more benign and humane new world that is to come in the future -- if we keep believing in, and fight for, the TRUTH!

The Fearless and Ingenious Individualistic Oppositionist in A Surveillance Society

We Don't Have To Fear

Surveillance Officers:

Truth Is On Our Side


I can readily reveal ALL the facts and particulars about myself, my past and my life so far! When you have no privacy left, as we all are under electronic surveillance by the authorities, you have nothing to hide! I, for one, have absolutely nothing to hide! That's why I'm not afraid of these greedy, inept, rich and powerful censors, monitors, spies and controllers working in the faceless, nameless, unidentified and unknown surveillance groups, departments or teams that owe their allegiance and authority -- and rich salaries, of course! -- to the autocratic and authoritarian PAP Government of Singapore! Their agents, double agents, moles and spies are ubiquitous. But they don't have a public voice -- collectively or individually (except under disguises and in anonymity)!


Will these surveillance officers still tempt my fierce and merciless responses if they know EVERYTHING about my identity -- yes, about the person known as "me"? I am prepared to put my life on the line! Take it, if you can, Big Brother!

(2) WITH MY UNINTENDED MINIMAL EXPOSURE OF THEIR IDENTITIES, THE NAMES (AND THEIR OFFICIAL POSITIONS) OF THE FOLLOWING GOVERNMENT OFFICERS AND SUBORDINATE PERSONNEL, WHO WERE KNOWN TO ME AS MY FELLOW COLLEAGUES WHEN I WAS EMPLOYED AT MILITARY SECURITY DEPARTMENT (BETWEEN DECEMBER 1975 AND OCTOBER 1976) ARE TRUE, CORRECT, ACCURATE AND APPLICABLE ONLY WITH REFERENCE TO THAT PARTICULAR PERIOD OF TIME.

The ABOVE-MENTIONED names are some of the ubiquitous "Voices" that belong to those "able" and "good" men and women whose "work" daily consists of bombarding me (and "disruptive", "unruly", "insubordinate" and "ill-disciplined" people like us) with their irritating, "loving" and intrusive remarks, comments and chatterings from their base at their TOP SECRET remote and far-away long-distance location at Bukit Gombak in Bukit Timah, Singapore -- exercising their continuous so-called "self-defence routine" of propagating PAP ideology and of ensuring and perpetuating the PAP's hold onto power over us, the poor, helpless, and unfortunate victimised citizens (even though we have, in the past, NEVER given them our unreserved consent or permission to be put under such close minute-by-minute, day-by-day and life-long electronic long-distance "authoritative" group surveillance) :

MY DEPARTING COMMENT:

I'm going to be -- yes, I'll continue to be -- a confident and resourceful (and long-haired) liberated, liberal and libertarian writer-intellectual. And that's fine by me!

These cunning and manipulative surveillance officers, pretending to "help" me, finally (after 36 years of victimization and manipulation by them?), achieve my much-desired success as a writer of published (i.e. printed) books (of collected essays) -- and also as a lover of the females among them in the TOP SECRET control room, are now working on -- well, they keep trying to learn -- how to finally turn me into an absolutely isolated, controlled and brainwashed subject -- as opposed to my current status as an unrepentant critic of the PAP Government (and especially, of LKY)!

Their "productive" efforts, time spent and resources used will all be in vain! I am sure of that!

COMMENTARY:

The PAP bastards think I can't stop THEM from undermining and spoiling my love, sex and social life -- probably due to the fact that I can't see them in person! But really, I don't give them a fucking recognition or acknowledgement!

So I don't bother about these surveillance officers. I know the PAP's TOP SECRET! Openly and publicly! It is: Domination Over Its Subjects! I just do what I please! All it takes is for someone I trust to enhance my life -- sexually and hence intellectually. Yes, this is how I live my life on my own terms and conditions -- as a reluctant "implantee", an "agent", a critic, a writer, a "schizophrenic", a "pervert", a lover, a "molester", a "prisoner", a blogger and a socio-political commentator and essayist. And I just need the perfect accompaniment -- a nice, pretty girl whom I love with all my heart, soul, mind, and body -- for such a multi-various life. And do you know who that lucky girl might be? Well, she is my latest girlfriend and lover, Kelly. I, an individualist, feel lucky to have met Kelly. Say good luck to me -- for I am under surveillance by the authorities and my rights as a man, writer, citizen and human being are being infringed upon and cruelly violated by these ubiquitous authorities. I, too, am an ordinary human being after all: I need conveniences, accessibilities, accommodation, advantages, amenities, appliances, appropriateness, availability, benefits, chances, comfort, ease, enjoyment, facilities, fitness, handiness, help, leisure, opportuneness, opportunities, satisfaction, services, serviceability, suitability, timeliness, uses, usefulness and utilities!

Nowadays, I'm in greater control of my life and personal being and my career as a writer is in ascendancy! (Yes! Yes!)

I'm loving, responsible, liberated, natural, versatile, provocative, sensual, quiet, commanding, attentive, modern, notable, intriguing, ingenious, captivating, deep, mysterious, daring, confident, friendly (except to the MSD/PAP officers), honest, wild (sometimes!), resourceful, cultivated, well-read, high-brow (most of the time), low-brow (sometimes), handsome (still!), individualistic, sexy, manly, notorious, sincere, bold, assertive, independent, sharp-minded, intelligent, thoughtful, intuitive, forceful, self-educated (mostly) and, yes, FREE (determinedly, insistently, persistently and potently!). I am the star in my own blogs -- for I write not as a team of group-thinking composite bloggers but only (and only) as myself, an independent authorial voice (of reason and compassion).

I'm getting poorer and poorer in my finances; but I'm becoming richer and richer in my mind. I'm more powerful now as a writer, citizen-leader and critic. The PAP bastards can torture me in any way they want. But as long as I am alive, I will always be an oppositionist (in this post-modernist, globalized world), a writer and critic who loves women and girls (especially when they are pretty and shapely)!

If there is only one idea of freedom, and only one, then the PAP will win! But the PAP has not won, not yet! If it has, then it would not repeat this word "freedom" over and over, again and again! It wants to, with such repetition, change not only people's minds but also their very BRAINS!

If the PAP has succeeded in getting its own version or idea of "freedom" into the BRAIN of every Singapore citizen, then it could simply have taken freedom -- as it has defined it -- for granted! Did it? Does the PAP still? Even today?

QUOTES FOR THE TIMES:

Deprivation and impotence sanctify the "mindless", the most humble!

-- George Steiner, ERRATA: AN EXAMINED LIFE (London: Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1997)

Untold personal destitution, ridicule, isolation, obscurity, not to speak of persecution on ideological-political grounds, has attended on the production of great art, literature or philosophic investigation....the evidences of suffering and solitude remain overwhelming. In the midst of the inhumanity and indifference of history; a handful of men and women have been creatively possessed by the compelling splendour of the "useless"! This constitutes the eminent dignity, the "princeliness" of our "brutal" kind.

-- George Steiner, ibid

None are more enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free.

-- Goethe

But who will guard the guardians themselves?

-- Juvenal (c. 60 -- 130 AD)

The true danger is when liberty is nibbled away, for expedience, and by parts.

-- Edmund Burke (1729 -- 1797)
