Do We Have Anti-Foreigner Opposition Politicans?

A reader by the nickname of Pinky Loong alerted me yesterday about some opposition parties' politicians propagandizing anti-foreigners in the cyberspace. They joined several Facebook groups & post on their walls. One of the post is sample is seen below. Pinky is against the spread of xenophobia & he pointed out two names on my Facebook wall which prompt me to do some 'investigations' online thereafter to verify his claims.

Attached below is what I found on Prabu Ramachandran (member of Reform Party) & Gilbert Goh (former GE2011 Candidate for National Solidarity Party)

 

Prabu Ramachandran Found in Anti-Chinese Group

Up to date till now on 10 May 2012, some politicians are all still in the Anti-Chinese group. Some of them have already left the group while the others remain. When interviewed by TNP reporter as published on 5 May 2012, some of them mentioned that they has no idea they were added in the group while some mentioned that they don't know how to remove themselves away from the group. One of a commenter whom I saw mentioned that if they don't know this & don't know that, then how will they look after their residents in their wards if they win the General Elections one day?

From Mr. Bryan Ti (布莱恩蒂)

"The internet is a very organic entity and it is very bottom-up. It is not something you can easily enforce like a set of rules and boundaries and hope that people keep to it. I don't think it is going to be very effective.

But that said, I do think that the growing negativity and negative energy online and all that xenophobia and all that, it's really dangerous for us as well." - Nicole Seah (佘雪玲) [1]

... I believe that NS is the first Opposition politician to have publicly recognized and spoken up against xenophobia in local cyberspace.

I suppose kudos are due.
