And how is this related to Singapore?

The bullets that will tear through the bodies of the monks, the weapons that fire these bullets, the money used to buy these weapons are all made possible courtesy of the PAP government.

Singapore Technologies manufactured and sold the ammunition while GIC laundered the drug money used to pay for them:

The leaders of military junta, monsters like Than Shwe, have had their lives prolonged thanks to doctors in the SGH --- who can't cope with the volume of local patients but are ever ready to service the tyrants in the VVIP ward:

Trackback from Bloggers’ reaction to protest in Burma:

Please sign the petition in support of the people of Burma....

I really hope the people, with the help of the monks can really say "bye bye" to military rule. They deserve to live in a country that truly belong to them.

If the Government wouldn't allow Osama and his fellow terrorists to receive medical treatment in our hospitals, why would they allow it for the murderous Myanmar generals and their families? They've killed as many humans, haven't they?

Terrorism is a crime against humanity.. and genocide isn't?!

maybe one day when osama and his fellow terrorists takes over a chaotic country like Sudan and install themselves as the 'government' of that country, then maybe our dear gov't will allow them to seek treatment in our hospitals.

Trackback from YoungJedi: The world remembers your sacrifices.:

May the force be with you, our brave & noble monks in Burma .......

As a Singaporean of Burmese origin, thank you very much for your concern and support on Burmese people.

Please help us to urge Singapore government to ban entry visas for travel, medical treatment, work and study of the immediate familes of the officials, cronies Burmese (Myanmar) businessmen and the officials themselves except for official visits.

FYI, Singapore is the safe haven for shopping, vacation, medical tourism, and work, study and investment destination of business and power elite who exploit 50 Millions of Burmese people.
