On 4 April 2015, the Singapore Democratic Party (SDP) announced the launch of Mr Chee Soon Juan's book "Teacher, Thinker, Rebel, Why? Portraits of Chee Soon Juan" on their Facebook page. Almost immediately, Singaporean netizens slammed Mr Chee Soon Juan with the following comments ...
"Get yourself elected first then get your residents to support your ideas, then present your proposals to parliament. Not sure how to do it? Learn from one of Lee Kuan Yews books on how he got self-govt from the British, got himself elected by winning the hearts and minds of the people, learnt Mandarin, Hokkien , Malay to connect with the people of all races. And behave in a civilized manner. Next election coming soon; good luck (you gonna need lots of it)"
"$ better donate to charity rather than buy d nonsenc bk"
"CSJ not interested in building the country or bring In foreign investment or create jobs. So it is a waste of time"
"Sorry, Not interested"
"Give me free also I lazy to read!"
"A journey to hell start with a first step in the wrong direction..,"
"With you all about Hope not about the reality and perfection, with you all about riots, protests & promotion of anarchy for Singapore not the peace, prosperity & happiness. With you all about bring political tsunamis, cyclones & typhoons for Singapore"
"Hey keep it for yourself , we wan to be a less courupt country pls do u hv a history about this pls lahhhhhhh"
This prompted the proponents of free speech to issue the following reminder on their Facebook page.
"Reminder: Users are invited to share their views with others and to comment on the SDP’s views and policies. We welcome debate and discussion. However, we ask that you do not troll our FB and repeatedly make statements that are unrelated to the subject at hand. We reserve the right to remove such comments."
In our opinion, an #epicfail on the part of the SDP.
