FEER fights back

I knew the libel suit was just going slightly too far.

Now the Lees, the government and everything else is being slammed by FEER in their october issue. ‘Kenna-bang’ doesn’t even begin to describe it.

I need to ask my mother if she’s got a copy, and to send it to me when she’s done with it. Also note my secret glee that FEER is taking no nonsense from these Lees.

Check out these articles:
Editor’s Letter
Singapore’s Founding Myths vs Freedom
The Charade of Meritocracy
Financial Centre Pipedreams

4 articles in one issue devoted to singapore. my god, aren’t we popular these days.

It’s a bit difficult to say, really, who the underdog is in this fight since one’s owned by the Dow Jones and has the Wall Street Journal as a sister-paper, while the other’s a political juggernaut in singapore. but looking at the history of legal victories the Lees have had over international publications, i know who i’m rooting for.

GO FEER!
