David Attenborough did a small series called Wild City to parade the few and little wildlife that he could squeeze from this island of concrete jungle. He was really hard pressed to show to the audience what were left from the invasion of the forest by the specie homo sapiens for their selfish interest to make more money, to exploit every little inch of land to be sold as properties with little regards to the wildlife that they destroyed.
The handful of wildlife captured on film by Attenborough include white belly sea eagles, jungle fowls, otters, monkeys, bats and a solitary ant eater plus a few snakes. These are the fortunate and surviving inhabitants left on this little island and were the pride of our possession. We have a sanctuary to protect these wildlife headed by a MP for doing such a great job.
It was so disheartened to hear that the AVA had culled the handful of jungle fowls in Sin Ming estate due to some complaints from intolerant homo sapiens, of noise and fear of bird flu. If these little reasons are justifiable and strong enough to warrant such an execution of the harmless but beautiful jungle fowls, then there is no place for the crows and mynahs and the sparrows living in our midst. It is so regrettable that our children would now have to see what a chicken looks like in the supermarket, all featherless and lifeless. AVA has came out with the explanation that it was about health of the people, about bird flu.
How could such people be so intolerant, so small hearted, to demand the culling of these fowls when the homo sapiens are the invaders of their living space? And they could not find alternative space for these fowls and needed to terminate them? How many? 5 or 10 chickens? Would it be so difficult to dump them in the nature reserves like Sungei Buloh or the neighbourhood of Lim Chu Kang?
It is not nice to cull chicken in the Year of the Cock. Not a very good start, not a good omen. All the cocks are reminded not to anyhow crow or you will be dead meat. There is no tolerance for irritating cocks,... and hens too.
I bet if Attenborough were to be invited to do another series on wildlife here he would show the middle finger to the hypocrites of this wicked city. 3.5m people and stuffing more millions of foreigners here but cannot spare the space and life of a few jungle fowl!
Parliament now finds it important enough to talk about the cocks in the coming session. This time talking cock may save a few wildlife before they are terminated forever. Killing cocks in the year the Cock is not a good omen.
Believer of karma yes I am!
ReplyDeleteI used to being my dog as rescued from a shelter for walks.
ReplyDeleteWhen the lift reaches my floor, I usually waited for an empty lift to go in. At times when they are occupied not fully I will bring her in.
We have human beans that simply despised human and animals and everything except themselves.
They were too selfish or preoccupied with themselves or may be their car's COE is due and not enough to pay for another five years extensions that they are so unhappy to ask you not to bring your dog in when then they are in.
I farked them that that they DONT own the whole bloody estate.
My dog is more human than you skunk.
At time, they will call the AVA to nap me for not leasing my dog on walks. My dog is so tame to walk by herself.
When they passed me, they would gave a dirty look but too afraid to be bombarded by this crazy old man who will give them an earful if they dared comment.
Poor Sinkies with their wealth are just too foolish and naive in having enjoyment with NATURE that they had become zombies.
Their grandchildren saw a piglet in Malaysia and called them big RAT to the laughter of the Malaysian kampong children who taunted them as BODOHS.
Missed my apartment in Kesidang Indah kampong to hear the Cocks crowed in mornings without alarm clocks.
Poor Sinkies are only rich in wealth but poor in everything.
Sad end for these jungle fowls. Beautiful birds. Sorry to hear that culling them was the decisions made after complaints from nearby residents. Very small minded people living in a small minded society. Sad and pitiful people in a sad and pitiful island. say no more. Typical Singaporeans.
ReplyDeleteHaaarrr?!?!? You don't know Attenborough was paid $1,000,000 by Mediacock, MCI & NEA to do the documentary?!?!? You think he so free & so interested about animals in S'pore haarrr?!?! Quite a number of ministers & senior civil servants were not happy about having to pay so much.

ReplyDeleteWhy our NS men no more in Kota Tinggli with the Malaysian counterpart in training??
Previously we have Bersatu Padu since the 70s.
Because our boys will made fools of themselves when they saw the wild boars, mouse deers and piglets and called them dinosaurs, big mouses and big rats.
This will made the Abang Adek men in Green LOL.
They will wear the KLIA spy killers T-shirts instead of green fatigue

Because there are only 6 opposition diam diam (silent) MPs in Parliament mah.
So why need to be so serious if almost all are kaki nang (ownself people)?
Ownself check ownself can be serious meh? Unless it become ownself shoot ownself lah. But it did not happen, tio bo?

Living in syonan is intolerable. Killing the "noisy" cocks could be from non chinese race. To chinese me would simply catch these wild cocks and put them at parks let them go and not killing them. To others, that sight of cock can be intolerable.
ReplyDeleteOne NZ new citizen had a landed property rented out thro AirBnb. Neighbor complained to the authorities. The authorities went to check and found the unit empty, no one staying. So that complainant kena. After that check, that NZ new citizen unit began to rent out to strangers for short stay. The complainant kena warning from this NZ new citizen that a police report for harassment was filed against the complainant.
This is new syonan, held by foreigners new citizen.
The complainant was cornered had to ask neighbor to sign petition to gain evidence for another complaint to authorities. The authorities boh pien this time but raid and found true.
Can see the difference? syonan is not the old syonan. It is a place of all kinds of people working against interest of residents and neighbors.
No wild cocks can survive in HDB estate. Not hens too. What year of roaster? This is not china please. syonan is held by foreigners and residents combined. This is the real picture.
ReplyDeleteWe should cull our own HEN in the shortest time possible.
Making too much noise that the Yellow Peril is coming.
Next GE2020???
Think they (MIWs) only concern about foreign "chickens"
ReplyDeleteThey prefer the two legged chickens in Geylang. The more the merrier.

We have very little land in Singapore ... so we must increase our population to 6.9 million from 3.5 million.
ReplyDelete1970s to 80s- we have limited land and resources and must stop at TWO.
Boy or Girl- Two is enough. Subsidy for month's supply of condoms at S$5.00
Now, so lucrative business, HDB flats built at 50K sold at 500K.
You can have 6.9 millions.
We gonna dig up Kopi Suay, Bidarri, CCK, YCK, Bukit China, and all available cemeteries and next time all sea burials.
Let the snakes, monkeys and wild boars rammed your backsides and sneak into your flats for food.

ReplyDeleteU are wrong with the figure. The planned population is 10 millions. One woman minister planned for it and announced it. One malaysian minister planned for the underground city and announced it. One ex HDB chief and architect by profession had urged the elites to speed up getting 10 millions population. It was about 3 years ago.
U do not assume it is 7 millions. Syonan will take 10 millions. The problems will be children s future to survive with 7 millions foreigners with 3 million indigenous citizens 50% are NS men, have no where to land when the 7 millions foreigners turn the island into next syonan at war time. Never forget Little India riots as a small incidence. When repeat, no where to see the uniform groups except some NS men put to face the violent foreigners. May 13 riots influenced by the north. Anything can turn against the children s future.
Soon however, voters will forget this in 3 years time and vote for the tombs of own children in 2020GE. That is syonan nans, not deserved to live beyond 100 years.

We have very little land in Singapore ... so we must send our elderly parents over to nursing homes in Johor and Batam.
Meanwhile, back in Singapore, we still have plenty of land to increase our population from the original 3.5 million to 6.9 million and even 10 million.

The Madness in the Political Leadership of Singapore - Part 6
ReplyDeleteThe Madness of Discretionary Powers At The Hands of Idiotic Trigger-Happy Killers
Singapore has space for the following, yet certain leaders do not have space in their hearts and minds for a few wild fowls mingling within their habitat:
1. At least 50 natural islands plus 10 artificial islands,
2. 20 golf courses,
3. 18 reservoirs,
4. 16 cemeteries, despite 21 cemeteries already cleared for housing and other purposes,
5. 5 Air Bases and 3 Airports, with Changi Airport having 4 terminals.
6. 3 Nature Reserves
7. A huge military live-firing area in the Murai-Gedong region
8. A huge zoo,
9. A night safari,
10. A bird park,
11. Many sports stadiums, and
12. Many swimming pools and complexes.
ONLY Sanforized, Sanitized, ivory-tower-comfort dwellers, who have forgotten their roots and have developed bird-brains are easily influenced by a few extremely intolerant cock people who are afraid of wild cocks getting bird flu.
What about the more than 3 million foreigners working and living in our midst, who may be carriers of diseases worse than bird flu, contagious diseases such as such as AIDS, sexually-transmitted diseases, tuberculosis, malaria, dengue fever, small pox, etc.? How many of these unknown potential-disease-carrying aliens have been screened for all communicable and contagious diseases, especially latent ones? Has the AVA or ICA culled any of them yet? Oh, cannot kill human aliens but can kill wild fowls without blinking an eye-lid, is it? I am so sorry, I am ignorant about this simple logic.
This impulsive madness in killing wild cocks and hens reminds me of the naming of Syonan Gallery. It looks like the mad people at AVA have the same extreme insensitivity as the mad people who wanted to subtly glorify and glamorize the brutal atrocities and cruelty of the inhuman Japanese murderers and deadly killers. These AVA trigger-happy killers could have learnt the murderous traits from the Japanese Imperial Army displays shown at the Syonan Gallery?
Or, probably they slaughtered those wild cocks for their feasts during the festive seasons? This may not be too far fetched, considering that Singapore leaders have been trying very hard to be different, to be number one in anything and everything, including punching above their own weights.
Madness of stupidity really has no cure!

ReplyDeleteShould round up the MIWs plus their stooges and transferred them to Pulau Senang.
Good for live firing. They are worse than birds flu.
Maybe can let our Fat Hanssome North Korean Boy try his ICBM whether can reach sinking land and not Sea of Japan.
I don't mind paying these Mental Masturbators a million dollar salary IF:
ReplyDelete- they shut the fuck up
- they are banned from any jobs in the public sector, government-linked companies and public office
As long as they are kept away from jobs that can damage our Singapore economy
- I don't mind paying them a million dollar salary to sit around doing nothing.

ReplyDeleteImagine paying the Dragon King and his family a million dollar salary to please leave office and Singapore.
Do you think the economic benefits that we will gain will far out-weigh the cost of his salary?
