Alex Tan's talk at Speaker's Corner

About 20 people (including TKL) turned up at Speaker's Corner. This was rather disappointing. Most Singaporeans are apathetic and will take the trouble to show their support for causes that they believe in, e.g. the need for change to our policies in Singapore.

Alex Tan gave a good speech. He said that it would be reported in Temasek Review. He intended to give a weekly speech at Speaker's Corner at 5 p.m. (most probably on Saturday afternoon).

I met Alex Tan for the first time today at Speaker's Corner. He had asked for my help earlier to publicize the event in my blog (which I agreed).

Alex Tan also organised a Facebook group on the need to make a change in the political system in Singapore. It attracted over 1,000 fans.

Update: A video of Alex Tan's speech is now available here.
