Dear brothers and sisters,

Just In,
Christopher Balding threw mud on Lee Hsien Loong face

I admire Roy Ngerng. I admire Roy Ngerng not for what he said, though I generally agree with what he said. I admire Roy Ngerng because he spoke out willing to accept the risks of speaking the truth. Much of the time when I write about Singapore, I feel like a fraud because I am not generally in harms way when writing about the enormous financial discrepancies. Roy Ngerng who faces much greater risk than I do has accepted that risk and calling.

I do not believe it is my place to advise Singaporeans who to vote for or what specific policies you should implement. However, I strongly believe you should demand transparency, openness, and accountability from any government of your choosing. I strongly believe you have the right to criticize your government or any other government without fear of retribution. I strongly believe Singapore and Asia need more men and women like Roy Ngerng who are willing to accept the risks of speaking truth regardless of consequence.
