Why don't he charge this fucker under the Sedition Act than? Talk cock make big noise, lets see some action Mr. Law Minister. Back your disgust with the fucker by arresting him. This is your chance not to look like one of the "wuss" that Casey mentioned in his rant. Make Sinkies happy for once and fuck this guy up. Once you arrest and charge him, even if not convicted, he will be persona non grata in the investment world.

Law Minister K. Shanmugam said he was "terribly upset and offended" by Briton Anton Casey's comments which referred to public transport commuters in Singapore as "poor people". But he urged Singaporeans not to flame the Briton's family because "Singaporeans can be bigger than that".
Mr Casey's comments were "deeply offensive, wrong and unacceptable", he said in a Facebook post on Thursday. "Those who have done well in life should always be looking out for others - especially the less well-off or needy. It is basic human decency. Instead Mr Casey showed contempt. Having money and a Porsche does not automatically mean that one is superior. Character is important," he wrote. "I am glad the community has come together to condemn what he has said."
Mr Shanmugam also noted that some also felt Mr Casey's apology lacked sincerity, and "I think there is some basis for thinking that".
