Is Singapore the size of a nose dropping?

Remarks from Taiwanese Foreign minister:
"Singapore, the size of a nose dropping",
"They (S'pore) are carrying the balls of China"

My goodness, I cannot believe wat i saw and read from our wire services. It was kind of Mediacorp and Mediaworks for not airing the entire conference. The Taiwanese media played it up thru cable TV like zhongtian and TVBS. A leader or a government spokeman making such crude and unbelievable comments on a country that is only the size of a little red dot (Indonesian former president Dr Habibi). I think their comments are even worse than the one made by Habibi.

I am no Taiwanese but i respect for their rights to make any forms of comments unofficially. They have their freedom of speech and say whatever they feel in anyway as long as it is unofficial. How could they allow a cabinet minister to make an awful, substandard, ridiculous and distasteful kind of remark? I began to feel sorry for many Taiwanese. It must be pretty bad for them to have a leader of this kind. I wonder how they chose their foreign minister who dun even know how to conduct himself when making an official stand towards certain issue. I believe most people know how to make better diplomatic comments than him. Anyway, the authorities have apologised for the wrong use of words. I think they should. If not, it is really negative for them.

Size of a nose dropping? ha... still cannot believe an official making an ah beng comment.....
