Photo credit to theindependent.sgSingapore – For one man, what started as a typical exercise session along Upper Boon Keng Road with friends became a painful encounter with a wild animal.
On May 13, a 77-year-old man was exercising near Kallang River when around 20 otters emerged, reported the Chinese newspaper Shin Min Daily News.
Upon seeing the otters, the man was glued on the spot. “I seldom saw them all out in a group, so I stood still and waited for them to leave,” he noted.
However, one of the adult otters went up to him and bit his left calf, causing him to cry out in pain, reported Shin Min....
He added that he exercised every morning over the 10 years he had been living in the area.
“The otters started appearing about two to three years ago and used to move around in smaller groups of three or four.”
However, the wild animals started appearing in larger groups over the last year, and they’re physically bigger, the man said.
The above is from theindependent.com. When they are small in numbers, they looked so cute, so nice, so friendly, so harmless, even afraid of man.
When the number increases, and when they are hungry, or started to be possessive, guarding their newly acquired territory, they will show you who they really are, what they really are....wildlife.
What is the moral of the story? It is ok to have a lot of them, if you don't mind being bitten or even driven out of their territory.
PS. A typical dumb Singaporean.
CECA is the official sanctuary for wildlife to keep increasing in numbers in Singapore. There is no limit imposed. The Fair Consideration Framework is an Unfair and No Consideration Frame-up because it does not include or affect the CECA agreement whatsoever. Therefore, the CECA wildlifes can still keep increasing with no restrains and no respite.
ReplyDeleteSingaporeans must start to think very deeply for themselves in order to safeguard their livelihoods and survive on this tiny land-squeezed island.
Think hard and think deeply when the next General Elections come.
Otherwise, it will be too late.
If given another Blank Cheque to the Multi-Millionaires Elitist Elites, the genocide of Singaporeans' good-paying jobs is assured. Your livelihoods jeopardized and curtailed.
Even Indian and Malay Singaporeans will not be spared!
Wildlifes are wildlifes. They do not differentiate whether you are Chinese, Indian, Malay or Eurasian Singaporeans.
So, wake up and think hard and think deeply!
For the sake of your young children and grand children who are still in primary schools and kindergartens.
Wake up!
Think hard!
Think deeply!

Criticisms of Government’s rules on travel should not be confused with obligations under CECA

The pro-India clique in the policy-making machine must be singled out and destroyed for the good of all Singaporeans.
ReplyDeleteFor the good of the PAP too.

Very clearly written to provoke. And the people sending it out just as equally irresponsible. They want to see racial tensions escalating in Singapore as they have no interest in the stability of the country.
Delete"DBS employee from India says she likely contracted Covid-19 at Changi Airport, adds: I was more secure in India home."
ReplyDeleteMoral of the story:
All India Indians must stay home in India to be safe and never step foot on Singapore soil to come and rob our jobs from us
DBS should offer them one way ticket to safe India.
ReplyDeleteSingapore is so dangerous. So safe in India, come to Singapore straight away kena Covid19 at Changi Airport.
Singapore — A Dependant’s Pass holder working in DBS bank commented on Facebook that she felt much more secure back home in India and added that she probably contracted Covid-19 at Changi airport.
ReplyDeleteAnswering a Facebook question, Ms Sonal Wadde said that many families were waiting to be reunited and had to travel to see one another.
She added that she came to Singapore after travelling via Nepal and having to stay there for 15 days.

ReplyDeleteCriticisms of Government’s Rules In Travel are NOT Confused With Obligations Under CECA
ReplyDeleteThe majority of us, Singaporeans, are not confused. Only a few are confused with obligations under CECA.
Those who are naively confused or deliberately confused are those who tell others not to be confused.
It is very clear that some of the government rules, regulations, instructions, directions and policies are closely linked to or in consideration of the CECA, or deliberately avoided/excluded the CECA, e.g. the Fair Consideration Framework for hiring and firing.
Please take note that the Supreme and Ultimate OBLIGATION in any country's government is to its own citizens, especially their livelihood and survival. This is to be First and Foremost. No deviation. No question asked. No doubt whatsoever.
The government's primary responsibility is to ensure that citizens are gainfully and decently employed, with dignity, and fairly-well paid according to the standard and cost of living in that country!
The second-most Supreme and Unquestionable OBLIGATION of any government is to ensure that foreigners do not come into the country to deprive its citizens of their jobs, by replacing them entirely or partially, or by displacing them to lower jobs, or to other organisations! Foreign talents must support, supplement or complement the local citizens' jobs and responsibility. Not to replace or displace them. It is the same as a foreign power coming in to replace or displace the government. Either instance, the government is weak and incompetent.
Moreover, there is no such a thing as "absolute" obligations that have to be obediently obeyed like a soldier taking orders from his general.
Singapore is a sovereign and independent country. She is not an appendage or a colony of India. Her government is not obliged to OBEY any trade agreement strictly to the letter. An agreement is not an order. Therefore, the government is naturally, constitutionally, legally and politically expected to exercise good and independent judgement for the benefit of its citizens without fear, favour or ill-will. Being afraid to offend the other party of the agreement, for whatever reasons, is showing fear. If the government is showing fear to a foreign power, than it is a very weak and incompetent government.
In addition, there is a clause at the very end of the CECA documents that it can be terminated by simply giving a six months notice. No additional clause with tiny letters added. That means any obligation that is not in favour of, or not in good faith with, the interests of any group of our citizens, or our livelihoods, can be terminated, or changed, by giving six months notice.
India, on the other hand, through and via the legally-weaponised CECA stealthy long-range missle, is precisely taking responsibility and exercising her supreme and ultimate OBLIGATION TO HER CITIZENS - to ensure that her nationals are gainfully and decently employed, with dignity and well-paying jobs that they cannot get in their own country!
In conclusion, when talking about OBLIGATIONS to any trade agreement, or any other agreement with a foreign power, the government's primary, supreme, unquestionable, ultimate OBLIGATION IS TO ITS CITIZENS FIRST and FOREMOST!
Think again.
LIPS.
Will put this up tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteFirst point, the people who agreed to this CECA and signed it must honestly and sincerely believed that this CECA is for the good of Singaporeans. So how to blame them if it did not turn out right? An honest mistake? We believe it was good or we would not have signed it. And they are the smartest talents in Singapore, how could they be wronged?
Second point, if served 6 months notice to cancel CECA, the Indians may say all investments arising from this CECA in India would no longer be allowed. This part I think our super smart not so street wise super talents would not have thought of. This could be the weapon to hold the super dumbos at ransom, so die die must continue with this CECA.
Only response is to go for tit for tat, all Indian investments here to close shop. The problem is that we have put in billions in S$ and India put in a few millions in rupees. So how, who rugi?
Investments in India must be withdrawn in stages over the next few years. DBS (Dumb, Blind and Stupid) recently dumped in more money to assist DBS India, in defraying the corrupted mafia protection money of the deposits required by the Indian High Courts of different states, is a questionable motive. Who made such a decision knowing full well that the more money you pore into that snake pit, the more you are going to lose!
ReplyDeletePaying the 'gong kias' millions to throw away good money after bad money.
ReplyDeleteOne day.... Ah Kong's money also cannot anyhow throw away.
As I see it, the only way is to follow Singapore's Godfather, the American way.
ReplyDeleteSwitch the government from Democtats to Republicans, and vice versa, in oder to cancel, terminate or suspend any international agreement, or to renegotiate the terms with better advantages hidden in the sleeves. Trump has done that. Biden is now doing it.
India has also done that to Singapore.
The Modi government was quick to renegotiate CECA when it took over. In fact, Modi did it twice in India's favour, to the disadvantages of Singapore and to the detriment of most Singaporeans.
So, what Singaporeans can do next is to switch from PAP government to PSP government. Then ask to renegotiate the terms. In the mean time, suspend the CECA effectively or slow it down, and rewind slowly. Fine-tuning it to our advantage instead. Then renegotiate from there, in strength.
No other way out. This is the only way.
QED.
The B1617 Bombers from India is spreading very fast and furious.
ReplyDeleteA day ago, there were only 4 cases of Covid infection at JEM. There are now 50 cases, more than ten-fold!
This is very scary and worrying. When is the government going to decide to implement the Lockdown or Circuit Breaker. The present half-hearted indecisive Phase 2 modified, scare to pay compensations to us, method/approach is obviously not working at all.
Six Pizza outlets staff at different locations have been infected.
ReplyDeleteMarina Bay Sands complex, White Sands Mall and Punggol Mall have also been visited by COVID-19 diseased persons, while infectious. These diseased persons could most probably have spread their viruses to other visitors at these places, over the last few days.
The present list of places visited by COVID-19 diseased persons while infectious contains more than 100 places already.
It is only a matter of time before the whole of Singapore is visited by COVID-19 diseased persons while infectious. These asymptomatic carriers of the virus do not know at the time of their visits that they have the viruses with them in their bodies. Therefore, every single item or place that they have touched could have been contaminated with the COVID-19 viruses.
This is no joke.
Even their breaths into the airspace of the environment they were in could spread the Covid19 viruses to other unsuspecting visitors of shopkeepers. Especially so in the small and confined toilets.
Singapore is going to be like India very soon. Even India national working at DBS also implied that India is safer than Singapore.
ReplyDeleteSo how, Multi-Millionaire, oops, I mean, Multi-Ministry Task Force?
Why so many India Indians working at DBS have the gumption to demonize Singapore? Is it because they think they have a strong backing from the CEO of DBS who is an ex-India national turned New Singapore Citizen, who may be ever-ready to side with them or back them up. Or, it is because they were brought over from India to work in DBS by the CEO of DBS, through its Human Resource Department, who may also be a India national or ex-India national?
ReplyDeleteThe last it was one who belittled the Singapore flag by tearing it to expose an India national flag, that caused an outrage in Singapore for over a month. Can anyone still remember that? What has happened to that guy? Was he sent back to India and banned from entering Singapore?
Understand he is still a PR living here. He recently made another inflammatory post accusing Singapore being racist towards Indians during this pandemic and that people planning to migrate here should first seek his advice.
DeleteTalking about gratitude for having given him a decent living and a safe home including during this pandemic. If he's back in India, would he be another stat of being dumped into the Ganges?
I think for the good of DBS as well as for the good of our government and people, DBS's manpower policies and employment practices must be reviewed and revamped thoroughly by an independent body to be appointed by the President. This Independent body must include the leaders of the main political parties in Singapore, i.e. PAP, WP, SDP and PSP, plus a few Chiefs of NGOs, such as Aware, HOME, etc. MOM, PMO, MOL and MAS should be excluded because they may interfere with or influence the process of the review.
ReplyDeleteSingapore geographical shape have changed tremendously. From a solid diamond shape to an otter likes formation. No wonder, otters spirits may have gain strength here and help the Otter to populated here. Otter is similar to mongooses. They attack and eat snakes. Other wildlife can also be threatened. Going to temple to pray to hor yah for protection Liao.
ReplyDeleteThe Gobble-men do not believe in Fong-Sui (Geomancy).
ReplyDeleteThere have been too much digging here and there, all over Singapore in the last 20 years, without due consideration for the consequences.
As a result, the good Fong-Sui of Singapore has been altered tremendously.
The five Dragons that supported Singapore in the past have been hurt (emotionally), injured (physically), maimed (spiritually) and crippled (in terms of their positive energy and performance power). Worst of all, one of the five is dead and the other four are very sick.
My spiritual master told me this a few years before he passed away, at the age of 99.
Otters are of a different living species. Pedaton for food and a living is in their nature and if humans got bitten,it's just natural for not giving way to them. Humans should not be xenophobic just because otters are different. Together, humans and otters have right to live in this city state.
ReplyDeleteI learn this from Mothership and some govt officials.
Yes, Datok Kong has been offended again and again and again and again and again.....
ReplyDeleteThree very significant things have happened at Kushu Island, which is the Jewel of the Central Dragon.
1. This Jewel has been destroyed.
2. Also this is the main seat and sanctuary of Datok Kong, the Main Land Guardian of this region. This place has been disturbed again and again and again, and it is very badly damaged, and some part destroyed.
3. In the past, thousands of worshippers went every year without fail to present offerings. Nowadays, very few worshippers go there every year. Instead, many tourists, who do not believe and do not respect the Datok Kong and his sanctuary, go there to dirty the place and cause disturbances and distress to the pure spirits there.
The situation is getting worse by the days.
