Perhaps You Shouldn't Criticize

When a country is ruled by a single political party since independence in 1965 and uses the judiciary to silence its critics and believes its self to be a Democracy maybe your government officials should keep their opinions to themselves. A place where freedom of speech and the press are a complete joke.

MALAYSIA'S "dangerous" decline is fuelled by incompetent politicians, Thailand is dogged by corruption and a "very erratic" crown prince, Japan is a "big fat loser" and India is ''stupid''.

So say some of Singapore's highest ranking officials, according to leaked US State Department cables which are likely to spark intense political controversy in the region.

The cables, leaked exclusively to The Sun-Herald by WikiLeaks, detail separate meetings between senior US officials and Singapore's Foreign Affairs chiefs Peter Ho, Bilahari Kausikan and Tommy Koh.
