以下为中英双语全文:

我可以告诉你们,我刚刚与新航的飞行员见面,我不是通过电视与他们见面,而是面对面。他们(罢工的飞行员)可以只隔着一张桌子看见我,看我是否还很强势,能否还能和他们继续斗争,接受他们的要求,亦或是,他们在想是否值得接受我的要求。我给他们两个选择:要么你们立刻停止这种要挟行为,这种行为损害新航,影响正常服务,使新航声誉一落千丈。百万计的广告效应和销售额,在仅仅两周的时间内被破坏。另一个选择就是,如果继续罢工,我将尽我所能,连同新加坡人民一起,给你们一个刻骨铭心的教训。我已经做好准备把这一切(指新加坡航空)从头再来,要不然就立刻停止,回去工作,恢复秩序,再来谈你们的问题。65分钟之后,他们决定没有必要再斗争了。为什么?因为他们知道他们会失败,他们知道我会让航空公司停飞,我也能在不需要他们的情况下让航空公司重新正常运作。毋庸置疑的是,管理新加坡的人必须有钢铁般的意志,不然就干脆不要做领导人。这不是纸牌游戏,这是关乎我们所有人的生活。我花了一辈子的时间建立这一切,只要我还掌管这个国家,没有人可以摧毁这一切。

I can tell you that when I met the SIA piloits, I didnt meet them on TV , I met them face to face, 5 feet across the table, so they can see me and see whether Im still vigorous, able to campaign and take them on, whether it’s worth taking me on. And I offered them two choices, either you argue you stop this intimidation, which is what it was bringing SIA right down disrupting services ruining its reputation, millions of dollars worth of advertisments and and sales, ruin within a matter of two weeks. I gave them a choice, continue this and I will by every means at my disposal teach you, get the people of Singapore help me teach you a lesson you wont forget. And Im prepared to start all over again, or stop it, get back to work, restore discipline then argue your case. It took them 65 minutes and they decided okay it isnt worth the fight. Why? Because they know they will lose, they know Im prepared to ground the airline, I can get the airline going again without them. Let there be no mistakes about this, whoever governs Singapore must have that iron in him or give it up. This is not a game of cards, this is your life and mine. I’ve spent the whole life building this, and as long as Im in charge, nobody is going to knock it down.
