MM Lee: I don't Facebook

By Rachel Scully, Multimedia Journalist
WHEN asked if he has a Facebook account on Friday, he said it is irrelevant and sees no point in having one.
87-year-old Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew shared these thoughts in an open dialogue session held to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Hewlett-Packard Singapore. He went on to add that he has yet to try out the Blackberry either because it is too small for him.
MM Lee also shared his thoughts on how Singapore stands a chance in competing with Asian giants China and India during the Asian Century. By being more well-connected, exposed to the world and speak more than one language, Singaporeans stand out from their Chinese and Indian counterparts.

He is being complacent and unable to catch up with the present trend.
I believe he dun even know what is a facebook account.
-
he is busy enjoying life with his large salary where got time to go facebook

Of course he doesn't Facebook. He hopped on once, said "Friends? What's friends?" and then went back to the financial pages to see how his stolen money was goingg.

He is just a typical slave of his inner demons - Greed, Power and Control.
Maybe he dunno how to enjoy his life and live his life.
Or maybe he dun have a life of his own.
He have just enslave himself towards the eventual end of his life.
Maybe Mr Peanut is having fun of his life by playing golf.

Fb is not so popular.
Something like a personal account where you come in and chat.
And it very messy and not user friendly too.
I do have fb, but seldom chat....
And games...not really like that too.
MM Lee, dont need fb or whatever. His servants are his fb.

He facebook, the page will be flooded with criticism and when he sees them, he will have a heart attack. He is not used to seeing criticism, only propaganda filth.

No friends to add. He maybe IT savvy, but his friends arent, and at his age, probably the people he knew around him, the close ones are probably dead.
