An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:

the British governor of Singapore did drugged their British subject mainly Chinese (targeting Chines only) for drug opium money.

Will PAP, as government of Singapore today, want the British to apologize to Singapore Chinese?

Or in fact all nations that were humiliated by the British Empire should stand up to make the racist British apologize today.

1. Opium trade and

2. Slave trades.

As the totally illicit opium trade caused economic and social ravages, the Chinese pleaded with Britain to be a "responsible stakeholder". In an impassioned letter addressed to Queen Victoria just prior to the outbreak of hostilities, commissioner Lin Zexu appealed to Her Majesty's better moral self to intervene so that the heinous trade be brought to an end. Commissioner Lin pointed to the flagrant double standards (a recurrent theme among risen Western great powers) in noting: "I have heard that the smoking of opium is very strictly forbidden by your country; that is because the harm caused by opium is clearly understood. Since it is not permitted to do harm to your own country, then even less should you let it be passed on to the harm of other countries - how much less to China!"
In Australia, the white has had apologize to the indigenous for the stolen generation.
