Watching the Uruk-hai in 2 Towers extended version hit me about the faceless cogs in S'pore economy.
=====
MM Lee dressed in white & out of touch with common folks
Saruman dressed in white & high in his tower. Treebeard complain
Uruk-hai breed for a single purpose- destruction of men
S'poreans most of which are breed to be faceless cogs to drive the economy
MM Lee's prized Orchard Road flooded twice
Saruman trapped in tower after flood
=====
Remember MM Lee's eugenics comments about telling graduate mothers to give birth more? It reminds me of Saruman breeding the superior Uruk-hai which are stronger than orcs & goblins. I suppose the hobbits, dwarves, elves & men are considered 'lesser mortals' as well. Lesser mortals as we have been described as by a subordinate of MM Lee.
Then his recent no retire comments. Script bears bit of similarity to:
Uruk-hai fight to death.
S'poreans work till death.
