Oh, Nicholas
said not to fight, hide and run, you are no match to the terrorists. This is
the best piece of advice but on second thought, where to hide, where to run in this
piece of rock when half the population are foreigners?
Nicholas
Fang also quoted Shanmugam saying that ‘The fact that members of the public had
not noticed anything suspicious is worrying’. Is Shanmugam serious when making
this comment? To me, everyone of the foreigners here is suspicious and looks
like a terrorists. And I think most of the average Singaporeans who did not
know what a terrorist looks like would share the same view. The terrorists
never wear a badge on their forehead to say ‘I am a terrorist!’ So what to
expect from the people? To the people ignorance is bliss.
Put it this
way, if the terrorists were holding a meeting in the kopitiams with all the
people around them, who would know what the hell they are talking about even if
they are planning to bomb the Istana?
Anyone understand what they are saying, undertand their language? They
did not have to hold their meetings in hideouts. They can hold their meetings
right before our eyes and no one is wiser.
What does
Shanmgam expect the people to notice? The general public are not uninterested?
They simply have no clue who is a terrorist, who is not. And the two million
foreigners are all over us, living with us, working with us, in sensitive
organizations and jobs, in mundane jobs, in top jobs, who would know which one
is a terrorist or working for terrorist organizations, or going to be self
radicalised?
Oh, Nicholas
article also quoted this, ‘He also revealed that the information that had led
to the arrests did not come from the community.’ So, if there was no such
information from somewhere else, the terrorists would still be operating here
happily and peacefully right? Then how to expect the ordinary people to know
better?
Maybe a
safer option is to advertise to the terrorists that this is a friendly place
for them to build their bases as long as they don’t attack us and we would not
‘kacho’ them. What do you think? Win win solution.
There are
more than 2 millions of them here! How many are potential terrorists, have
connections with terrorist organizations, will be self radicalized? And who
brought them here?
ReplyDeleteit is true that at times you feel like you are in a foreign country especially during weekends
some places you go, you can hear languages that are very unfamiliar to you
they gather together and speak their own languages, some may be so-called instant singaporeans
did anyone monitor the success of our costly locals/foreigners integration programs
terrorist, terrorist, who is likely to be a terrorist
you never know, you never know

"The arrest of eight Bangladeshis in Singapore last month for plotting terror attacks in their home country highlighted gaps in Singapore’s overall strategy for dealing with the rising threat of terrorism in the region."
ReplyDeletehttp://www.todayonline.com/commentary/fighting-terrorism-cannot-be-responsibility-government-alone
Do you find it hard to believe?
Bangladeshi terrorists fly 1,000 miles from Bangladesh to Singapore.
So that they can plan a terrorist attack in Bangladesh while staying in Singapore which is 1,000 miles away?
Why not just stay in Bangladesh to plan the attack?
Is Singapore a bigger country than Bangladesh?
Does Singapore have more places to hide than Bangladesh?
Does a Bangladeshi terrorist find it easier to blend into the local Singaporean population than in Bangladesh?
Do you think the 8 Bangladeshi terrorists were really in Singapore to plan an attack in Bangladesh, which is 1,000 miles away?
ReplyDeleteAnonymous 10.04am pls note that the B terrorists had actually practised
the Chinese theory that "the most dangerous place is the safest place"!
But, too bad, got caught!
Too Bad! Too Bad! Too Bad!
Cheers.

ReplyDeleteI share your doubt on the blangali s real intention.
The terrorist act if real, should be planning to do something that has immediate results.
The print out in media showing members were instructed to stab someone sitting upright from behind. I wander which blangali in their home town need this kind of treatment.
If they planned for blangali attack, holding guns in some position like FBI movie will be more appropriate.
So the blangali s instruction had hinted to me, they were not planning an attack in blangadesh.
Who are they planning to attack? My guess is as good as yours.
WOW! When the government cannot protect you...they blame you!
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of shit is this?

ReplyDeleteIt's just like our Foreign Talent Policy.
We give jobs to Aliens so that Singaporeans can have more jobs.
We give free scholarships to Aliens so that Singaporean children will have more education opportunities.
We vote for the Millionaires' Political Party so that poor Singaporeans will benefit.
I fuck your wife to reward your family for helping me with my grassroots work.
If Khaw Boon Wan needs to go to Taipei to improve Singapore's MRT which is 1,000 miles away.
ReplyDeleteWhy can't Bangladeshi terrorists fly 1,000 miles to Singapore to plan an attack on Bangladesh?
If you can believe one idea, why can't you believe the other?
"Why would the govt want to bring in herds of wild beasts knowing that they are wild beasts and can do us harm and then expect the people to fight for themselves, to fight the wild beasts when the people are telling the govt they did not want the wild beasts and to stop importing them?"
ReplyDeleteRB
Hahahahaha. Because it will be even worse for the people not to bring in herds of wild beasts, and not to expect the people to fight for themselves, to fight the wild beasts.
So it is still the lesser of 2 evils for the people to fight for themselves, and to fight the wild beasts mah.
If we can believe Desmond Kuek is the best available global talent to manage SMRT.
ReplyDeleteWhy can't we believe that Singapore is the best available place for Bangladeshis to plan an attack on Bangladesh?
"RB:There are more than 2 millions of them here! How many are potential terrorists, have connections with terrorist organizations"
ReplyDeleteThat kind of reason that terrorists must first connect with radicalized setup is unrealistic. From observation, most terrorist groups setup action on their own, such as those in Philippines. They may declare loyalty to certain group as branding.
The "2 millions of them" is very realistic view.
There was a Mom case about a hostel. The conditions of hostel was dirty with littering, and cockroaches infested. Cockroaches were on picture next to rice cooking pots on a table. This hostel housed 5000 workers or more. The legal limit was 4500. Let say each worker pays $100pm. The excess earned out of the 500 workers would be $50,000pm.
The owner of the hostel was fined $300,000 one time by Mom.
That is a potential bomb. There is no reason such hostel will not continue to take in excessive capacity. Correct?
300,000 one time fine is only 6 months excessive/illegal profit. Its worthwhile to go into it. Not to forget the normal profit earned legally.
Poor hygiene living conditions for human can be a common ground to garner groups of dissatisfied workers. The Prc bus drivers were unhappy for bed bugs and noisy sleeping environment and staged a peaceful strike. What can those workers do when they group together and speak their languages? No one can predict. 5000 in one single hostel can be overwhelming to the uniformed groups. 2 millions may echo their voices and that will affect the sleepy citizens in flats.
The views said in RB's post: RUN. I fully agree. This kind of profiting from the 3rd world labor to support the firms paying high rental is a very long term measure. It will not end here in short term. If the explosion days come, i will first send my children abroad to relatives. My myself may fly out if possible. Indeed, when such days come, its dangerous to live here.
On smaller scale attack. People holding weapons to shoot or cut off fresh, RUN and HIDE is the best measures. Unless someone wants to die with these small number of people. They dont plan to live when getting into it.
This place looks peaceful. When walking around, most people i encountered speak non chinese, malay, english, even tamil which i recognize or understand. If they plan to attack me, i will not know until they come along. Its that dangerous. I have taught my children of the danger and demand them not to hang around after 11pm.
In short, this place is never safe after the invasion of foreigner. Just look at the worker who was hanged. He simply used a tree trunk to break another s head with cracks. That is what can happen, almost any time if situation is out of control.
If the explosion days come,...
ReplyDelete12:37 pm
If can come, already come lah. If the opposition can be ready to be govt, they would have won GE 2015 already. No need to wait lah.
This Nicobar or Bipolar must realise in the first place who go and taunt the terrorists? ?
ReplyDeleteWhy itchy backsides can't they keep their million dollars CB mouths shut like the Swiss.
Why take side.Now you have a new found enemy and you said our responsibility to fight them.
Enhanced Bullshits securiry brought hardships only to the people.
Wayang wayang terrorists exercises when real fireworks happen cannot find them.
Deserved to be sting when you stirred the hornet nests.
Just one simple call when planes taking off. You have a bomb in the plane and so many grounded cause fears of own shadows.
Unnecessary preparations at Sports meets and other festivities.
These jokers snigeering away to play hide and seek till appropriate timing to set off the fire works when you are fatigued and down.
Cheers

ReplyDeleteIf Desmond Kuek is the best available Millionaire talent to manage SMRT.
Who is our best available Millionaire talent to guard Singapore against terrorist?
Is it going to be Khaw Boon Wan again?
If yes, then why is he not Mentor Minister?

ReplyDeleteOne got cancer.
One got stroke.
One got heart bypass.
Just like another episode of Grey's Anatomy.
‘The fact that members of the public had not noticed anything suspicious is worrying'
ReplyDeleteIn some places where there are dormatories, you notice group of foreigners facing west on the matt along the sidewalk.
Why they did not go the the mainstream religious house to prey instead?
Who is conducting the session and what they are preaching do anyone outside this group understand?
Hello, this has been going on for years, way before any arrest was made.
The irony is you could see police petrol vehicle passes by and "had not noticed anything suspicious"
Anon 12:48pm
ReplyDeleteI dont have that kind of presumption sounded so comical: if it comes it should come already.
I think the situation is not so bad yet. The triggering point is not there. The triggering point comes when these workers are not paid the salaries. Then, u will see the no pay+ poor living environment comes into 1 go.
I dont believe opposition can do much to save the present situation. Voters voted for the situations must enjoy the pain. U sounded as if the pain is already came. I think it is till too early. 2017 to 18 will be better feeling than now. Wait for the time.
Opposition will say: heng ah. Let those voters enjoy. Its ok not to vote for them.
Allow terrorist or potential terrorist in and then tell the people to report or rein them in.
ReplyDeleteIt's very much like make the people poor then offer them crumbs and make them parasitic and dependent on the policy makers.
Brilliant, but evil, without conscience and cannot be supported or condoned.
Only folks without conscience are capable of evil deeds.
It is normal for any ruling party in this world to blame the people when things went wrong. After election, they do not care about people anymore. This is democracy. But is communism better? They will still blame the people. People are actually just slaves in modern context, just a different word.
ReplyDeleteRight. Who would suspect a DEVOTED pastor, guided by the spirit of God or Jesus, to fleece the church of religious funds to boost his wife pop career?
ReplyDeleteWhat can you expect from such gullible people? They can't even catch leaders who openly lie through their teeth and you expect people to catch covert operandi by faceless commoners every where?
How to recognize a terrorist?
ReplyDelete- 2 minute funny video explains
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eAqgXhblr-w
Nicholar Fang ... His article titled ‘Fighting terrorism cannot be the responsibility of the Govt alone’.
ReplyDeleteSo Nicholar;
How you recognize a terrorist ah?
Do they wear a name tag that says "Terrorist"?
How you recognize a PAP grassroots leader?
Do they wear a name tag that says "PAP Grassroots Leader" ??
How you recognize a Singaporean plain clothes policeman?
Do they all show you their warrant card to identify themselves?

Many journalists/reporters in Sg are idiots.
ReplyDeleteJournalists or anyone who presumes to comment on anti-terror tactics to be taken up by the public, had better "edu-ma-cate" themselves on "what it takes to be and make a terrorist"...i.e. at least get a glimpse into their training and culture. You might even want to have a Quran on hand so you can look up references, but these days if you're on the net Google will do all that for you.
ReplyDeleteHere are some suggested publications. IMO, the better informed Joe and Jane Public are, the better their "vigilance"---since the govt is going to fail us all in looking out for our security and safety, you might as well consider a "proactive approach". Whether or not it will make a difference, no one knows. Anyway here's my short list (there are more publications, training vids etc....up to you to seek them out and "digest")
Disclaimer: these suggestions are purely for educational and informational purposes only. Don't do any of the shit mentioned, not even as a joke.
1. All the Al Qaeda Training Manuals (4 of them)
2. Al Qaeda Terrorism Manual
3. Al Qaeda's A Practical Guide for Islamic Warriors
4. Encyclopedia of Jihad
5. Mujahideen Poisons Handbook (for the creation of poisons, and poisonous gasses---Chemical warfare from your kitchen)
6. Mujahideen Explosives Handbook
7. Inspire Magazine (Al Queda's periodical)
8. Dabiq Magazine (ISIS periodical)
Part of the terrorist training is being taught how to "blend in" with society. That's why they are so difficult if not impossible to spot by the untrained/ unaware/ uninformed public.
So this journalist is question is an absolute FUCK TARD. I can tell by what he's written that he probably hasn't read any of the above, nor may be he be even aware of their existence.
Happy reading!
