Subject: Government's possible plan for GE 2019

Dear Media,

 1. On Feb 28, 2019, I wrote to PM Lee Hsien Loong and the international community about my protest at Raffle Place against Singapore’s Watergate Scandal.

2. Now I am writing to inform you of one of the PAP government’s plans for the upcoming General Election (GE).  The contents of this email are part of the email I am going to send to PM Lee and the international community in a few days’ time. 

3. On Apr 17, 2019, I was sentenced to 35 weeks’ imprisonment. On Aug 13, 2019, Superintendent (Supt.) Faisal Mustaffa of Institution B4 in Changi Prison forcibly transported me to the Institute of Mental Health (IMH) for no reasons. IMH subsequently released me after a brief talk.

4. On Apr 17, I told the Prosecution and the judge that “compared to PM Lee Hsien Loong, I have plenty of time ahead. I have every intention of making the 5^th generation leader step down.” On Apr 30, the Straits Time reported that PM Lee would hand over leadership to the 4th generation leader in 2022 when he was 70 years old.

5.I believe the government’s current plan to end my continued protests is to hold a GE before Chinese president Xi Jinping’s state visit to Singapore later this year. The government has made secret preparations for the upcoming GE.

6.One predation was the announcement of PM Lee’s stepping down under the guise of an interview with Nikkei Asian Review in the context of G20 Osaka Summit. On Jun 24, PM Lee clearly stated in the interview that he would for sure pass on the baton to 4th generation leader shortly after the GE. The announcement served as a bait to lure me into going on a protest after the dissolution of parliament.

7.The other preparation was my appeal hearing scheduled for Jul 26, 2019, which unexpectedly turned into a forced appeal due to the abuse of power by Supt. Faisal Mustaffa. The Supreme Court had planned to partially allow my appeal against the sentence and to release me from the court. The purpose of the release was to show that the government was not harsh to an ordinary citizen and tolerated criticism. As a result, Singaporeans should vote for PAP in the upcoming GE. 

8.GE 2019 is expected to take place shortly after the parliament is dissolved, and I am expected to go on a protest after the GE is called. Chinese president Xi Jinping must pay a reciprocal state visit in response to President Halimah Yacob’s visit to China in May this year. President Xi’s visit is expected to showcase a good Sino-Singapore relationship.

9.My protest, along with my conviction and sentence, will be reported in the mainstream newspaper after president Xi’s state visit. The next step will be to make US president Donald Trump come to Singapore to affirm Singapore place in the world. PM Lee certainly will stay in cabinet after the GE, and I am expected to leave Singapore after serving my 6^th jail term.

10.On Jan 26, 2018, PM Lee was involved in espionage activities by announcing to Singapore media that choosing next PM will take a little bit longer to Singapore media at a ASEAN-India Commemorative Summit in New Deli. The announcement about the leadership transition was made on the basis of the information provided by Sun Jiansen, a Chinese citizen who acted as an informant for the PAP government intelligent agents.

11.It was evident to me that the government had learned from last year’s spying activities and had chosen Nikkei Asian Review but not local media for the interview. I believe that the interview was an impromptu one and the appointed time, if any, was on the afternoon of Jun 26 but not Jun 24. I need to thank Supt. Faisal Mustaffa for helping me figure out the government’s trick with regard to the leadership transition. 

12.The government’s current plan for the leadership transition is based on two assumptions. One is that I will only protest after the GE is called. And the other assumption is that I will end my protest after the GE. I am curious to find out whether the leadership transition can take place in October this year.

13.Due to some financial difficulties, I am now in Johor Bahru of Malaysia. It appears to me that the PAP government has been encouraging me to go back to support their plan. I will talk more about it in my next email. 

14.Thank you for your attention.

Regards,

Yan Jun
