IMF saga

ok.. i have been reading so many articles on IMF in Asiaone that i felt compelled to comment something on it ....

at risk that i get sued by some one or some govt...


ok.. situation:
1) Singapore host IMF meeting in her country....
2) Singapore barred some activists from disrupting the meeting...
3) IMF protested against such actions as those activists are 'accredited/welcomed' by IMF

instinctively, i know this is the typical reaction by my beloved protective govt...
but i just feel that we shld let the activists in since IMF has no objections..
since IMF is allowing it... why shld Singapore be the "bad guy" in this by barring activists?
analogy: if my "enemy" is banging on my door for a quarrel and yet I am willing to open the door to say hi, I shld be given the right to do so.. the authority shld not act as a "lock" which refuses to open..

on the hand, i came up with another analogy:
if I rent your house for a private party, you does have the right to stop undesired parties from attending my party if those parties have a history of property damage, etc... hence, singapore shld be correct to stop those 'potentially-violent' activists from coming to the country..

now i am torn between both polarities... my 'rebellious' side says.. "just let them in... let them do their stuff .. then let them leave... " but then.. singapore is my "home"... how can anyone come n mess up my home like that... hm...

i guess the underlying issue may be bigger than wat it seems... maybe if the activists are allowed to do wat they want, this may set a precedence for singapore.. n more problems may arise in the future... hm..

nevertheless.. i just hate it that singapore is getting so much bad publicity on the govt's handling of the activists.. i do feel that it may slight over the top.. but maybe the things would be viewed from a more neutral standpoint if singapore had a better preceived history of 'human rights'..

ps: first time i wrote so much.. hope none of you are bored.. i will add some photos soon.. just too busy..
