The strong
objection and statement are testimony to might is right and when one is small,
it is better not to be too overbearing. You can only punch above your weight if
the bigger party allows you to do so. Indonesia would not allow Singapore to
act against its citizens even if their acts affected and hurt Singapore and
Singaporeans. What can Singapore do about it?
On the other hand Indonesia is arresting fishing boats from China,
Malaysia, Vietnam etc and their citizens for violating their territorial
waters. Not sure about the rest, but in China’s case, Indonesia is acting like
it is punching above its weight against China. They believe China could not do
anything against the Indonesian Navy. In reality, it is China that is allowing
the Indonesians to punch above its weight. Anytime China could withdraw this
privilege like Indonesia is doing now to Singapore, and arrest Indonesian naval
ships when it decided enough is enough.
There is one
area that Singapore can punch above its weight. Throw money around. We have a
lot of money to throw and those who needed money would come crawling to plead
with us, to let us feel important, full of dignity, and to throw our weight around
with our money to punch above our weight, …and to look silly after that when
the money is gone.
How many
millions do you want, $100m, $500m or $1b?

It is like your law degree tuk puk kai overseas. only puk kai if you got gangsters in blue working for you. Isnt it silly to throw the book at people with more gangsters than you?
throw money tiok. they all as corrupt as you so can work most of the time
but it also imply you must be corrupt(unjustly milk your peopl etc) to get so much money tio bo?
Now cannot throw money to these countries in the region. They are rich.
The next batch of beggars will be bankers from Europe after the Brexit crisis. Let's see how much we are going to throw to them to prove we can punch above our weight. They will come praying to us like Gods, oops like Santa Claus.
At one time I thought they were getting close, much too close for confort. Now, we can see that it is all wayanging. They meet every once in a while, wine and dine and after that proclaim the relations are excellent. But you and I know it is just a drinking party, people getting intoxicated and talking rubbish. Things will change when they are sober.
Of course throwing money to these countries will not work forever. Throwing money to most Sinkies only will still work forever, like a charm, before every GE and when occasions dictate that sweeteners are needed before they tighten the noose around Sinkies' necks. You can bet on it, centuries down the road.
But the throwing of money will surely stop once the PAP gets it's 100% mandate. You can be sure of that! I am rock sure of that!
It's not about money la...it's karma at work..otherwise the universal karmic law will need to be rewritten..wat goes around comes around...
Talking about karma, it will be eerily frightening if another bad incident happens.
In 2000, Chee Soon Juan to Goh Chok Tong "Where is our money?!?!? Show us the money!!!" PAP & Straits Times & MediaCorp called CSJ mad-dog and Sinkies all laughed at him.
Now, the foreigners are laughing at you Sinkies.

In another life, I used to operate as a banana among the white Aliens working in the financial industry in Singapore.
And yes, among these white Aliens - a certain Singaporean is considered to be a Santa Claus.
A very gullible and silly person.
Off Topic
--------
I did not set out to be a banana in the beginning.
But as I have said many times before.
The white people pay much better than Singaporean employers.
And they also treated bananas like us much better when it came to retrenchment benefits.
Singaporean employers treat Singaporean employees like shit and they paid us peanuts.
In the end, I concluded it's better to serve a master that pays better.
Since Singapore (or China) does not owe me a living anyway.
Rb //How many millions do you want, $100m, $500m or $1b?//
In 2014, was US$1 B thrown to IMF to "get" Botak named as "World Best FM"?
Like throwing few hundred millions yearly or even in excess of $1 billion to give(away freely) taxpayers funded scholarships to foreign children to "game" the uni ranking?
How much credibility left?

Goldman Sachs, the pillar of honesty and integrity is fighting in court to keep the Libyan Investment Authority (LIA) from clawing back $1.2 billion the LIA says was lost through nine disputed trades conducted in 2008.

Please lah. Singapore can indeed punch over its own weight. Singapore has taught Indonesia a lesson before---after the McDonald House bombings by their commandos.
All Singapore has to do is to rally support from the region, and since the US is already here, rope them into the fight as well. Australia---which thinks it is "superior" (especially with multi-millionaire Turnbull's govt), and has previously invaded and occupied Indonesian territory, will be willing to ally itself with Singapore.
Since Singapore is home to the US in SE Asia, Singapore should learn a thing or two about American political culture, adopt and incorporate it into "the Singapore way" of getting things done.
I would like to see the evolution of "Singapore Exceptionalism"---nevermind if ASEAN menbers get pissed off.
Fuck them. We're a success. Our cuntry is small, but our dicks are huge. And we have money. Lots of it.

They can act against Chee Soon Juan, Roy, Teo Soh Lung and Amos Yee, good enough already.
Because these will be the last of the Chee Soon Juans, Roys, Teo Soh Lungs and Amos Yees.
If not, so easy to get 70% in a GE and even 61% in a BE meh?
So why bother with the Indonesians, as if they can do something about the Indonesians like what they did to Chee Soon Juan, Roy, Teo Soh Lung and Amos Yee.
Aiya , what can u do about the pollution? Nothing.
It is a commercial decision to burn the forest for
replanting. The Indonesian Government has nothing to do with it.
Arrogant somemore, all they have to do is stop their people from
coming to our casinos, shopping, medical treatment etc
we all will be kaput. Tio bo.
Let's wait for another tough minister to stand up to the Indonesians and knock them to their senses.
You think we got this type of strong leaders or not?
Or maybe we got very tough and straight talking diplomat to do the talking?
Or maybe we have very clever journalists and reporters to write tough articles to tell the Indonesians off.
Sin is good to see no good to eat. This kind of born people like that talk(only they can belowstand the first sentence), how to make it in the world? Can't think, can't talk well but have got good grades.
I feel sorry for all the kids born in Sin
Singapore is too small a state to punch above weight. Singaporeans should be allowed to get another passport for national security purpose in case of some extremists send in the haze to kill the people. No amount of defense technology can stop that. Thus, no need to invest so much in defense, no need ns, just need another passport. Politicians should facilitate that.
Many passport ready to run already. That's why they invest overseas properties
If haze overcomes this island again, what would Singapore do?
Show your yellow tail. If not go to war
My gay khiang go war with words of laws or die by laws. Punch above weights? Pls lah. Just stay put and eat money(pay thyselves millions- this one you punch above your brain weight)
If?
Since last week, the southern part started to be quite hazy
Look at the sky today?
Fight lah... See who run. Then we know what sinkies made of... Chicken curry
R u kidding?
Remember last time even when old man around, they sent big-nosed kena lashing upside down?
Mb this time they can send Botak there kena again by this "garang VP" while JOKE-KO "play the gd guy"?
Can only bully own sinkies with the draconian laws instituted by old man?
Other than that, totally "IMPOTENT" unlike the "BIG BROTHER from (OTHERS) downunder"?
People stick "GIANT MIDDLE FINGER" publicly into their faces oso LL?
Rb //You can only punch above your weight if the bigger party allows you to do so//
Tiok?
When another disaster like the 2004 strike again, even too help, the JLBs like BIG NOSE, BOTAK, KEE CHIU, COLLECT CARDBOARD for EXERCISE ( can tkss useless generals? ) still need go down ( on bended knees ) to offer help ( so that the BIG BROTHER from downunder will give them some chance )?
Remember little India riot... Sinkies balls shrink... True color... Balls color is yellow
Given the way many sinkies are treated back home ( by the JLBs and silver serpents ), see whether these sinkies will back them up?
You go war with them? Chum ah. So mothers pls spare us your sons and daughters in sinky land
Look at today's haze?
Grey or yellow?
GSS?
GREY SINKING SINKIELAND?
NTD already long ago implied the JLBs "quite useless"?
Pls stop giving birth to yellow monkeys
Go what war?
The JOKE-KO, his VP and even some smaller fries just wait for the wind to blow from the south ( like now since last week ) and then the haze can "finish off" sinkieland's retail sector's GSS?
Which (kongcum) tourists want to come here shop in the GSS (GREY SINKING SINKIELAND)?
Think should be black and pinoyish color?
Be productive lor... Own self buy own self lor.. Eat more chicken rice lor
Ha ha ha
The JLBs keep "bullying" many sinkies?
Now can do anything when pple make shit of the yearly GSS (GREY SINKING SINKIELAND)?

That's why there is a term called "SUCKERS"?
Look at what happened (how many hundreds of billions lost?) during the last GFC "investing" (throwing away $$$?) in ZOMBIES BANKS?
Sinkies ARE one of the world's MOST "FUNNY" LOT?
Ever seen many Koreans using Christian names?
Good thing uncle Redbean never call himself like ROBERT CHUA, DICK CHUA, TOM Chua or sthg liddat?
Some sinkies not only give themselves christIan names, they further distort by changing the spelling to funny spelling from the original?
If there is a nation of kongcum bananas, this is it?
If a nation is liddat, what does it tell of ....... ermmmmmmmm ....... the Mugams on top?
No hope le?
How many Mugams can u count?
Can tawk cawk sin song but cum to real stuff, the outcome is always inevitably similar to what happened in the 1962 Sino-India Border War?
Rb //This is the latest coming from down under, the big brother of Asean.//
Uncle RB, what u trying to say?
Out of the blue we have a mini crisis.
Let's see how our millionaire ministers handle this.
This is the first test case to see how they manage or mismanage it and turn it into something much bigger. The Indons know that it is time to test Singapore when the real leader is gone. Something unpleasant is brewing.
U not scared one ownself say ownself very can especially senile mad old goat later label u " no big no small"?
So uncle RB, are u implying (indirectly) & telling all the sinkie sons and grandsons the JLBs down under only like ......... ermmmmmmmm ........... 3-yo "sausage" small bro?
There is some hope left in the "GSS"?
A "free spinoff"?
"FREE Circus Show"?
So, it looks like the haze problem is not over yet. In the meantime, we can continue to punch above our weight, I guess. Punching the haze I mean, and just within our own shores. Cannot anyhow punch outside the island hor!
@ Chua Chin Leng aka redbean June 14, 2016 4:39 pm
//Out of the blue we have a mini crisis.//
Out of the "BLUE"?
Uncle RB, from where your "atas office building is", can still see blue?
Of cos not referring to the facades on the buildings itself?
That has been like that (
blue blue mood) since inception?
Reflection of the health in your industry?
Uncle RB, faster use your good photo taking skills and upload pics to update sinkies in MSN?
The tinkie so small?
Can above weight meh?
Not shy?
The Indons know that it is time to test Singapore when the real leader is gone. Something unpleasant is brewing.
RB 4:39 pm
Don't worry RB. The Sinkie leaders are also not stupid lah. They know how far to go and when to stop one, and how to deal with Indonesians like their Vice President. So nothing unpleasant is brewing with the Indonesians. But my gut feel tells me that something unpleasant may be brewing for Sinkies like Roy, Teo Soh Lung, Amos Yee and those BSI guys (one already arrested and charged) and one girl.
These holidays NOT TRAVELLING (le)
Keep ($$$) for "rainy" days to stock up masks, best air purifiers, aircon systems, expensive EXTRA electrical bills, and oso buffer against zombie sinkieland economy ......?
Also stock up potatoes to stay indoor and log in MSN everyday 60(second)-60 (minutes)-24(hours)-7(days a week)-365(days a year) to kpkb ...... round the clock, from morning to night, night to morning, dusk to dawn, dawn to dusk ........
Looks like the JOKE-KO "lun" the JLBs "very long liao"?
So this ( current and worsening ) haze "blanketing" sinkieland will "drive a belated nail into the real xxxxxxx's coffin"?
And send a sick zombie economy into a (permanent) knockout?
When supposedly multi-millionaire businessmen find an additional $30 expenditure a BIG PINCH, it is not hard to "see" the sick zombie economy already "病入高肓"?
It is not "if but when"?
How many businesses and businessmen will become Uber "cab" drivers this round compared to the 97/98 AFC?
Last time they sent big nose to get verbal lashing from habibi?
This round mb botak might get countless "facial (slapping) lashing" from JOKE-KO?
But still LL lah cos some pxgs known to be ( balless) pussy cat outside the 718 sq km?
The JLBs have "a lot of blood" in their hands?
The years ( and 5 decades ) of "miscarriages of natural justice"?
"Karma" is standing up for the "Bens" and "Dominics" of this world?
To bring justice ......
Mb JOKE-KO should "tie some JLBs to a tree with a short dog chain"?
And let their "BIG BROTHERS from down under" give them "some real lessons in life" under the open sky and sun, and "NOT HIDING under some skirts or desks"?
Like the way (dog)owners tie a bitch to a tree .....?
Rb //Singapore thinks that by passing the Transboundary Haze Pollution Act it can then go around arresting anyone it likes for violating this law? //
Big brother from (other) down under dun give 1 nano-gram damn abt some "lan sai jiak liao bee"?
Will JOKE-KO "order his pple to tie up some kao boo to a tree"?
Uncle RB, can you tell us sthg?
Do u see the "JLBs" no "up"?
Given their jiak sai and lan sai competence?
Especially tawk tawk tawk but when coming to delivery, like the 1962 ah Nehland (useless) soldiers who fled at the first sight of China's PLA soldiers?
Based on some records, the ahnehland soldiers who are very good at tawking tawking tawking were so useless and the 1962 border war so ONE-SIDED, the PLA soldiers, to run faster and catch the (useless) ahnehland soldiers, even stripped out their SBOs and threw away their rifles to nab them as POWs?
And the JLBs bringing in literally by the plane loads in the past 20 years?
To make sinkieland yee-CON-no-my stronger?
What a (UNBELIEVABALE BIG) JOKE?
For many sinkies, NOW IS THE TIME to join forces with Aung Juan Soon Chee?
NOW IS THE TIME to "reclaim sinkieland?
And send the "JLBs back to the animal farm pxgsty"?
Also, for many sinkies, NOW IS THE TIME to join forces with Mr Teochew?
And Mr Super Lawyer?
Reclaim 10-Pee-nis?
From the "small sausages"?
Feed the arowanas with some "minced food" that are wasting oxygen in this world?
Expect more "circus show" in the coming months?
Akan Datang?
JLBs going to make some ashes "peek peek pop pop" in an "urn"?
Since time immemorial, PAP been suing people and all ran to take cover unable even to return to own motherland
