President Nathan: Criticisms about me are like ‘noises’ in the environment
After keeping ‘very quiet’ for the past 12 years, President S R Nathan has been making quite a lot of ‘noises’ lately to please his PAP masters and to belittle ordinary Singaporeans who have been paying his obscene salary.
Speaking to the media on the sidelines of the NUS Commencement yesterday, Mr Nathan described criticism against him as “noise in the environment”.
“It cannot be stopped, hence there is no point adding to it,” he added.
He also found his ‘voice’ to warn Singaporeans against voting for a president who bows to ‘populist pressure’, claiming that it would pose a ‘greater danger’ for the country without substantiating his wild claims.
Noting that Singapore has come a long way to what it is today, Mr Nathan said unhappiness might have arisen among some sectors of the populace along the way in a blatant defence of the unpopular PAP regime:
“It would be best for everyone to look back, see the big picture and ask: ‘How did we arrive here? What are all the good things that we’ve done?’”
When asked about his future plans, Mr Nathan quipped:
“I’ve not made up my mind. You know, I’ve been working from the age of 14, 15, so the only thing I know is work.”
Mr Nathan has indeed worked ‘very hard’ during his two terms as Singapore’s first ‘walkover’ President so much so that few Singaporeans other than the PAP leaders are sad to see him leave office.
-
seems from last 1 month, he opens up his mouth defendin himself more than defendin the netizens in the last 12 years
-
SR Nathan is now letting out his frustrations against Singaporeans. Ungrateful white elephant to whine and whine and talk against people who pay him his obscene salary.

SINGAPORE: Visitors to the Singapore food festival this year can expect fiery feasts, with its theme "Curry and Spices".
The Singapore Food Festival 2011 will be held from 15-24 July.
On 23 July, President S R Nathan will launch "Spice Potpourri" - a cookbook featuring his recipes and those of other ministers.
There will also be an attempt on that day to set a world record for the longest single dining table.
The event will be held along Race Course Road.
The festival's food village will be at the Singapore River, with more than 60 stalls and 130 participating outlets from surrounding malls.
Visitors can also take a cruise down the Singapore River and have food served to them in tiffin carriers.
Chinese, Malay, Indian and Eurasian fare will be duly represented at the festival to attract both locals and tourists alike.
Bubbling curry...freshly-cooked pepper crabs...hot Briyani rice... So, tuck in to your heart's - and your tummy's - content at the Singapore Food Festival!
Some 400,000 people are expected to hit the event this year, which will be more than the estimated 370,000 participants in 2010.
The festival is into its 18th year.
28 per cent of those who attended the festival last year were tourists, up from 26 per cent in 2009.
Visitors to Singapore spent about S$1.9 billion on food and beverage last year, which accounts for roughly 10 per cent of total expenditure.
Mr Luke Lee, director of SPOC Solutions, the organiser of the Singapore Food Festival 2011, said: "We'll like to use this particular event to try to educate everyone, regarding our heritage and about how spices, since it was traded in the 19th century, progressed to today and how it has influenced our cuisine."
"I cannot imagine a world without spices...because I'll be jobless," joked food consultant Milind Sovani, who has won the "Best Asian Cuisine Chef 2011" title. "But spices definitely add a very distinctive taste element to any dish and if you want to eat tasty dishes, if you want to eat tasty food, you need to have spices."

- CNA/irIt's bad enough that the public perceives he does nothing significant at all.
But to tell people he has time to writes memoirs and shares recipes during his term as a president makes it even worse.
Yes, I think it includes the public perception on the ministers as well.
