This is on 新民日报's headline today - showing one of the policeman (or SWAT team according to the paper) pointing his finger pretending to be holding a pistol in the scene when an ex-policman kidnapped a tour bus with some 15 Hong Kong tourist as hostages .... For once ... I really wished this is Photoshop'ed than the real .... |

Another version from a friend taken from here.
We have no vision for tomorrow, (We have no eyes, we cannot see) We have no goal for Singapore, (We need FT, we need FT) You and me, we have no part, of the money, cos we're not smart. We need spurs in our hides, to work day and night. Can only stop, after we've died. There is nothing down the road that we can strive for, We are told that we are daft and ignorant lor. Our government, full of hot air, it's a feeling we all share, we work like animals, for Lee and P A P... There's no reprieve, there's no reprieve. Chorus: Count on me, Singapore. (X 2) Pay money, give my life till no more. So our ministers can earn even more. Together Singapore, Singapore. (X 2) |

Ordinary members 'have no right to attend general meetings'
City Harvest Church's constitution says only executive members are entitled to do so by Neo Chai Chin 05:55 AM Jun 09, 2010 Todayonline SINGAPORE - You may be a member of a church, but you may not necessarily be able to attend its annual general meetings (AGMs) - and consequently, be privy to its annual report or financial statements. According to City Harvest Church's (CHC) constitution, which MediaCorp has obtained a copy of, ordinary church members have "no right to attend General Meetings". Only executive members - such as pastors, the board of directors and cell group leaders who have served at least three years - are entitled to do so. This could explain why some church members have written to the Commissioner of Charities, following CHC's indirect $310-million purchase of a stake in Suntec Singapore's convention centre. Mr Simoh Teoh asked the COC to request the church's board to review its constitution to "find ways to promote more accountability and transparency to its members". He wrote that the board had utilised the church's building fund and committed it to "future liabilities" without consulting members at its latest AGM. But while this may go against the spirit of accountability to donors - as stated in the Code of Governance for charities - corporate governance expert Lan Luh Luh noted that non-compliance with the Code is not a crime. But the organisation would have to explain why it could not comply, said Associate Professor Lan, co-director of the National University of Singapore's Corporate Governance and Financial Reporting Centre. "The sector administrator would try to work with the organisation to see how to help it to comply (for example, give it time to change the constitution), and only if it deems (the situation) severe would there be any action taken," said Assoc Prof Lan. The COC's annual report is expected to be released within the next two months. Meanwhile, the National Council of Churches of Singapore (NCCS) said that while it encourages members to comply with the Code, it is a voluntary association and each member determines its own policy and action. CHC is a member of NCCS. NCCS does not oversee its members' financial matters, said its general secretary Lim K Tham. Whether members are able to attend AGMs depends on how their church is incorporated, he added. Members of churches registered as societies are entitled to attend AGMs. City Harvest is registered as a society and a charity. Some churches are, however, registered as companies limited by guarantee, and whether members are allowed to attend AGMs would rest on a document called a memorandum of association - which sets out the contract between the organisation and its members, said Mr Lim. Another megachurch, New Creation Church, posted details yesterday of its five business entities on its website, as promised at its weekend services. The fact sheet includes information on the entities' shareholders and directors. Sun Ho returning? News of investigations into City Harvest Church-linked organisations and individuals has made its way to entertainment portal E!News. In a YouTube video of an E!News Asia Headlines segment posted on Sunday, it was reported that pop singer Sun Ho, wife of City Harvest founder Kong Hee, is "rumoured to be returning to Singapore for the case". Ms Ho is said to be working on a new album in Los Angeles. When contacted, the Singapore police were unable to verify reports due to ongoing investigations. Last week, 17 individuals linked to the church were questioned by the Commercial Affairs Department for its probe into alleged misuse of funds. |

导致秦国灭亡的主要原因是什么？
从观念上说，中国政治的中枢神经是道德人心，所谓得道多助。秦国却因为割断了这根神经而获得成功，有意思的是，它的迅速灭亡好像也正是出于同一原因。 为什么会这样？民心向背真的是决定一个王朝命运的根本力量？ 秦国的成和败可能得按历史任务分成两段来说，"成"的阶段是残酷竞争的阶段，而"败"的阶段则是系统维护和控制的阶段。也就是打天下和守天下。 打天下需要的是勇猛凶狠，守天下则需要安抚和善待，贾谊著名的《过秦论》"仁义不施，攻守之势异也"的说法几乎是分析秦亡原因定论。 但是，秦国如果采取汉初的那种柔性政策就能免予灭亡呢？这个可能不能简单地按照道德命定论来解释。对于汉以后历朝历代的王朝覆灭来说，道德命定论基本上无需怀疑，因为排除异族入侵因素，各个朝代的灭亡原因基本上都是由于朝政腐败、民不聊生。可是秦国似乎有所不同。 导致秦国迅速灭亡的标志性事件是陈胜吴广的发难，官方历史把这场事件定性为"中国历史上第一场伟大的农民起义"，但是陈胜吴广并非由于苛捐杂税和土司兼并导致饥寒交迫、流离失所，被逼无奈起而抗争的饥民。据《史记》记载，陈胜虽然曾经"与人佣耕"，是个雇农，但举事的时候，"二世元年七月，发闾左适戍渔阳，九百人屯大泽乡。陈胜、吴广皆次当行，为屯长。"也就是说是一支政府组织的支边队伍的头目，大小是个"国家基层干部"，而他们"起义"的原因是"天大雨，道不通，度已失期。失期，法皆斩。"也就是说违反了国家政令，为了逃避惩罚而举事。 再从心理原来来看，陈胜当雇农时的理想也不是"一亩三分地、老婆孩子热炕头"之类小农理想，而是"苟富贵"的燕雀焉知的"鸿鹄之志"，举事时他们所喊的口号也不是"打土豪、分田地"，而是"王侯将相宁有种乎？"用今天的话来说，陈胜吴广其实是"对社会存在严重不满，无视法律尊严，为满足求一己之私，不惜聚众暴乱……"。所以，不应该把陈胜吴广定性为农民起义军的领袖，这种褒奖对任何时代都是非常可怕的鼓励和煽动。 除了陈胜，继之而起的刘邦和项羽举事的心理动因表现出惊人的相似，据《史记》载，秦始皇巡游天下时，刘邦和项羽都亲眼目睹了天子威仪，刘邦感叹说"："嗟乎，大丈夫当如此也！"其眼馋和口水千载之下犹可想见，项羽则更加霸道："彼可取而代也。"。 其实就算他们三个当时未必说过这种话，但从当时的历史精神潮流来看，《史记》也并非完全妄拟，刚刚结束的战国时代是一个道德彻底崩溃、社会弱肉强食、人人无法无天的年代，自私自利天经地义，狂妄自大理所当然。在这种文化背景下，秦国其实只是从外部社会统一了全国，在更深刻的精神世界，每个人都是一个"秦始皇"，所以秦国统一之后迅速崩溃，天下混战，势之必然也，经过以陈胜吴广首难、天下英雄纷起、楚汉双雄角逐之后，西汉的重新统一才算真正地让人"心服口服"了，到那个时候，大家都累了，休养生息、天下太平才有了社会现实和心理现实的双重可能。 所以，个人认为，秦国的迅速灭亡不是因为"仁义不施"，而是因为"人心未定"。 |
