An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:
By now Sinkies and everyone who's bothered to concern themselves with the affairs of the small red dot on the world map will have known of at least 2 "Ownselfs", theories proposed by the Sinkie gabrament.
Sinkies already know the first "Ownself" which is "ownself check ownself" while the second "Ownself" is "ownself praise ownself".
Ms Vivian Bala, the Sinkie Foreign Ministar who's also the coordinator for Asean-China dialogue, gave a rare display of the essence of the second theory.
In the context of the 49th Asean Foreign Ministers' Meeting in Laos, Ms Vivian B. has again failed spectacularly to obtain a consensus from Asean members on how to deal with China, post-Arbitral Tribunal's ruling coming from The Hague.
But never you mind for Ms Vivian has thick skin and even called it a success.
Below are some quotes from "Hard work forging an Asean consensus", The Straits Times, July 26, 2016, page A6:
Quote:
The 49th Asean Foreign Ministers Meeting in Laos ended on Sunday without any agreemnt on how they were going to mention the South China Sea dispute in their communique.
This was despite a last-minute, late-night meeting proposed by Indonesia on Saturday for the ministers to lay out their positions on the issue, before official talks began.
In the end, the arbitration case at The Hague that so rankled China was not mentioned at all in the communique that reiterated the ministers' concerns about developments in the South China Sea.
Despite criticisms that it had been watered down, Dr Balakrishnan said: "You can't get everything that you want."
P.S.: The 69.9% of Sinkies have been short-changed. They should ask their Prime Ministar to replace Ms Vivian with a person of high calibre.
Granted, Ms Vivian is a President's Scholar and is successful as an opthalmologist. However the lure of power, influence and recognition on the world stage is too much for Ms Vivian to resist and s/he succumbs to it. Sinkies should ask themselves: What notable achievements has Ms Vivian accomplished?
