First and foremost, I have originally no intention to comment on the guilty judgement by the local judiciary. But as a layman, I am just extremely curious on how the issues on hand can be decided by trial to determine whether something is a lie or not a lie. The only 100% certainty thing that can convince everyone is if there are videos taken or conversation recording to prove what he or she had said or not. Else everything becomes pretty judgemental albeit circumstantial evidences and witness statements, is it not? Anyway, I am not a lawyer, so I am resigned to being clueless on how these legal thingy works.  

Additionally, worst thing is does this issue even matter when there are larger issues at stake for Singaporeans such as high inflation effect on daily bread and butter matters. Personally, I thought that it is an enormous waste
