Fan Yew Teng

If we remember right the late Fan Yew Teng was the honest fellow who agreed with Lena Jaeger (later a Baroness) that Harry Lee's PAP was not socialist and had planned to have the PAP expelled from the Socialist International (Harry Lee quickly got out before that happened).

Politicians are in control and if powerful enough can never be controlled.
