Hello, everyone. My name is Aisyah and I am a university student. I have been interested in philosophy and politics for several years, my father was very political and I suppose I mostly take after him (if more radical, much to his unending distress). I have been reading political philosophy and history (Edmund Burke, Enoch Powell, Alexander Solzhenitsyn, Thomas Carlyle) since I was ten years old. Since then I have also been trying to read/read about classical thinkers (Cato the Younger, Aristotle, Zeno). Recently I have been trying to study hard in economics. I like best the economists Adam Smith, Antoine Louis Claude Destutt,comte de Tracy and Ludwig von Mises. I read the textbook economics but they do not make sense to me.

If I had to choose words to describe myself I am thinking that 'unorthodox buddhist', 'liberal anarchist' and 'extreme rightist' would probably apply to me. But these words do not mean the same to everyone.

Happy to be here

Else Schumpeter is nice.

It took me some time to get used to so much grace and pure altruism

I do not think it is altruism. Here we are used to being safe, and that allows us to be friendly and comfortable with others. I love to meet people from the United States and Canada.

Where is Singapura ? Has it something special for the inhabitants ?

I had a friend in Singapore as we call it. He enjoyed it very much.

Yes, very close. That is what British people call it. Singapore used to be Crown Colony of England.

What is status of Crown colony?

When did Singapura became Independent ?

Are U democrats ?

Crown Colony mean it has governer from King/Queen of England. England get Malaysia in Straits Settlement.


It start after World War 2, and then England give it independence, then it join with Malaysia but that did not last long. One way or another it has been mostly independent since 1959.


Officially, it is a semi-democratic government. Thankfully it is not really democracy. People's Action Party rules, mostly, with some coalitions. Mostly Singapura like world's largest, best managed apartment complex

I like market based systems with private property for everything. Singapura does not have this, but it is better than most places.

Then our countries were Neighbours for a while... Or not. When was independence of Indonesia ? De Jure since 1956 I believe. De Facto it was earlier.

Does England still hav' Naval Base ? Or in Singapura's Harbour strictly commercial ?

I al a leftish-liberal. Believe not in big scale capitalism. Makes peoples like drones. Love artisan work, paintings and esp statues. Have a few small copies. Made pottery myself, but years ago.
