It is a very surreal thing to watch V for Vendetta, or V for Viennetta, as my wife called it. I had to tell her Viennetta is an ice cream cake from Wall's.
So close to our elections too.
And then there is the line "People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people."
I smiled at the line "Curfew is for your protection".
And for some reason, while watching the movie, this came to my mind, "We have a different model in Singapore. It has been developed in particular circumstances and allows our media to contribute to our nation’s construction."
Then we come home. I flop on the sofa, turn on the TV, and Discovery is showing the documentary The History of Singapore.
Like I said. Surreal.
