What lies beneath

in response to Random Voyeur's request for what went deeper in the NKF saga... well... it raises a few questions. exactly why these questions are raised... you will have to go find out for yourself. not too difficult, just read a little about the history of NKF, think about why there was a need for NKF and how it was possible for it to become such a big entity.

some of the issues are:
1. when would the ends stop justifying the means?

2. if a company is incorporated and has IPC status, should it be audited and under the jurisdiction of MCYS?

3. are people in Singapore too comfortable, taking far too many things for granted and believing everything we say?

4. have we, as a people divested the responsibility to think, to find out to someone else?

5. the role of the media in it all (for more, find out here)

6. Lord Acton's adage: power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely. who is the most absolute power in Singapore? what are the possible consequences?

these were some of the questions that arose out of a discussion about the NKF saga that i had with a group of really interesting people. these are just the questions. i have my own views on these issues and questions. but my views are in no way suggested by the way i phrased the questions and issues. you go think about them and come to your own conclusions and how you act upon your conclusions is your own responsibility.
