二十多年前,拜讀了卡爾巴柏「開放社會及其敵人」這本當代的政治哲學鉅作,直到今天,個人對民主開放社會與對公民獨立思考所堅持的信念,對極權主義與金權政治所造成民主倒退的警醒,對公共政策的事實認識方法與批判性思考,仍有許多受到該書思維的影響...

樂見台灣有電視節目,專門談了卡爾巴柏與這本書,推薦給大家。

可惜當時年買的繁體書,轉送他人已經不在,現在台灣好像沒有出這本的繁體書了,頗為殘念。

Note: Pam is a personal friend of mine so no flaming, please.
Background: She lives overseas for many years and as such I felt she is not very familiar with the going ons back in Singapore.
She make it sound like social media leads to Dr Goh having a state funeral..... Haha
so pls don't misunderstand and think that she is some Pro-PAP drone. She is very objective in that sense.
I think she listed some possibilities very generally. That's all.
i am one of those "people who say". so how?
ask her to move back here and live for a couple of yrs for a personal opinion then
i feel nothing. it's true that the family rejected the offer but you got to understand why the family rejected the offer
if it were me, i'll just say, "go ask the family lor"
ok... I don't like to say that the govt discriminated against him, etc
OTC's family rejecting it should just about right
check out the newspaper article...
because to me, it makes no sense for them to 'reject' OTC a state funeral. it is a PR nightmare that has long lasting repercussions like now
the man is dead, and denying a popular leader's followers is quite dangerous, no?
okay, according to a pol sci grad, the yawning bread is an accurate picture :-P
of what happened
I wld think so too.
everytime i see otc's face i feel this very warm fatherly feeling. cos when i was punished in pri sch i was to face him n his wife
to reflect lol
He handed me my degree while he was prez *thumps chest*
