North Korea is not an enemy of Singapore. Why is it an offence to trade with North Korea? Does the Singapore govt forbid Singaporeans from trading with North Korea?
The arrogant and rude Americans even put up a notice in our main media offering a bounty to arrest a Singaporean for trading with North Korea, in violation of an American law/sanction. It is reported in the Straits Times that Kwek Kee Seng, owner of a shipping company, is now wanted by the Americans for selling oil to North Korea with a US$5m bounty, for violating a UN sanction that not all countries would abide by as it was American led to contain North Korea.
Would the Singapore govt assist to arrest Singapore citizen Kwek Kee Seng and hand him to the Americans? Or would any Singaporean become a bounty hunter to catch another Singaporean for the Americans just for the US$5m bounty?
What is the position of the Singapore govt on this? What is the position of Singaporeans on this bounty by the Americans? Why no other country would be putting up a bounty for such a purpose, to arrest anyone trading with North Korea, supposedly in violation of a UN sanction other than the Americans? Basically no one cares. Are the Americans the policeman of the world or the policeman of the UN?
What do you think? Would any Singaporean betray Kwek Kee Seng, a Singaporean citizen, just for the money, and catch him for the Americans? Many countries have violated the onerous sanctions of the Americans, totally ignoring these sanctions without any consequences, like buying oil from Iran and Russia or trading with countries that were supposedly sanctioned by the UN.
Would Singaporean Kwek Kee Seng be safe in Singapore from the Americans? What would Singaporeans think of the audacious and disrespectful Americans putting out bounty to arrest Singaporeans in Singapore media?
The Americans are not the policeman of the world or the policeman of the UN. They are making use of the UN's name to arrest citizens of independent countries, behaving like international gangsters and terrorists.

Won't count on weak leaders to protect Singaporean Kwek Kee Seng from the US.
Note the contrast with which Beijing secure Chinese citizen Huawei's Meng Wanzhou release from Canada.
Singapore version of Meng Wenzhou??
Don't play play with US...see what happened to Imran Khan recently?
Kenna shot.
It's good to be stupid sometjimes:
'Recently Sahra Wagenknecht has defined Germany’s government as the “most stupid” in EUrope for managing to embroil itself in a full-blown economic war with its top – and thus un-replaceable — energy supplier, namely Russia. Speaking at the Bundestag, the former co-chair of the party Die Linke (“The Left”) urged for an immediate end to the anti-Russian sanctions and also for the resignation of German Vice Chancellor and Minister of the Economy, the now infamous ´Herr Green´ Robert Habeck. While still describing the ongoing conflict in Ukraine as a “crime” Wagenknecht insisted that the anti-Russian sanctions are “fatal” for Germany itself.
She told her fellow Bundestag leaders in-their-face that “The biggest problem is your grandiose idea of launching an unprecedented economic war against our most important energy supplier. The idea that we are punishing Putin by impoverishing millions of families in Germany and destroying our industry while Gazprom is making record profits – how stupid is that?” she wondered out loud.
So, an important German at an important German venue publically told many other important Germans how stupid they were. Not me, she did. “The promise of NATO membership did not help any. Militarily, this war cannot be won”. Of course, this has meant that some Left Party members now demand the expulsion of Sahra Wagenknecht for good.'

Of cause our papies would help the ammericunt to arrest this sinkies..& collect the $$ as their year end bonus. Remember we are the 51 states of ammericunt.
Kwek transported some 2.8 million kg of oil to North Korea. That would save many North Koreans' lives from the cold winter.
[Ex-U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said in 2018: “We are getting a lot of evidence that these sanctions are really starting to hurt,” citing intelligence and anecdotal evidence from defectors.
He said Japan told a conference on North Korea in Vancouver that more than 100 North Korean fishing boats had drifted into its waters and two-thirds of those aboard them had died.]
The US decried Russian strikes on Ukraine energy infrastructure to freeze the Ukrainians in winter, but the Americans are hell bent on denying oil to the North Koreans to freeze the Asians to death.
Small weak nations obeying the US are indirectly helping to freeze the North Koreans to death!
Would the government protect its citizens from the American terrorists and gangsters?
Would a Singapore citizen feel safe when victimised by the American gangsters?
In the first place, why does a legitimate media allowed itself to publish the US bounty in Singapore?
It would seem that the legitimate Singapore government must have agreed to publishing the Bounty.
In such a situation, would the Singapore government facilitate or impede the illegal Bounty on the head of Kwek Kee Seng?
For any government who espouse to be fighting for principles, then I believe that Singapore shioud not assist the USA to apprehend Kwek Kee Seng, a legitimate and legal citizen of Singapore.
So shameful to be a Singaporean.
Hey bro don't look up and be suspicious of drone overhead. All the best
If anyone in Singapore, under Singapore's Citizenship, can be trampled upon and disregardrd by the USA government by any standard, then being a Singapore Citizen is totally frivolous.
The Americans totally showed no respect to our sovereignty, treating us like a colony of the American Empire. It is like I want to arrest your citizen, what can you do about it?
To be correct on all fronts, politically, humanely and ethically speaking Kwek has done nothing wrong.
He had not violated any Law, Local or lnternational, in selling oil to North Korea.
In fact he did a most noble deed to supply fuel, an essential item, that was needed for survival.
It was reported at Channel News Asia thay Kwek is home in Singapore.
If the Local Authority and or anyone does, it shall be a great injustice, sin and both to do so.
Period
'If the Local Authority......
and or anyone do send or report Kwek
to the US. It shall be a great injustice, sin and both to do so.', to amenf my comment above.
patriot
Rest assured, we have 'Principled' leaders that will protect it's citizens. Ahem, Ahem!
Pushing own citizens to the dogs is inhuman and unprincipled, if they succumb. Will they?
This bounty has a more devious objective, to turn Singaporeans against Singaporeans. Once a silly Singaporean took the bait and turn Kwek to the Americans, the trust between Singaporeans would be gone. It would even be more troubling if it becomes a racial thing.
We have built a nation and trying very hard to gel the different races as one people, one nation. This bounty may break this bond between Singaporeans and the NGOs would have a field day instigating Singaporeans to do their bidding, instigating Singaporeans against Singaporeans, with the possibility of social unrest.
This could be the spark the Americans are lighting to create instability in the island.
Don't play play with the American playbook to destabilise countries.
With their intelligence apparatus and Singapore police correspondence with the US, the Americans surely know that Kwek is in Singapore.
So there's a sinister motive in publishing the reward notice in international media, maybe to pressure the Singapore side to quickly repatriate Kwek to the US, or killing a chicken to warn the monkeys on trade with North Korea.
More than thirty years ago, congratulatory advertisements used to be splashed all over the Newsprints in Singapore, especially in the Chinese Sin Zhou Ri Bao/星州日报
and Nanyang Shang Bao/南洋商报 when North Korea
celebrated its' National Days.
Pictures of Kim Jong Uns' Forefathers were prominently displayed.
For unknown reason, they had completely disappeared for decades.
This is a most shameful act on the part of a media that allowed itself to publish such a bounty on behalf of USA, the instigator of internal strife.
Extract Of PM Lee:s Speech:
"The nation’s governance and “all our lives” will go wrong if Singapore’s politics goes wrong - something that has already happened in other countries, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said on Sunday (Nov 6).
Addressing more than 3,000 party members at the biennial People’s Action Party (PAP) conference, Mr Lee said that the party cannot take its duty lightly and has to keep working to renew its succession and leadership.
Governments in other countries get “distracted and paralysed” and society “becomes divided” when politics turns contentious, he added.
One example Mr Lee raised was the US “which sees itself as a city upon a hill, an example to the world of how a country should be governed”.
“But their politics has become deeply divided, polarised and dysfunctional. Many Americans do not believe their election results,” he said.
Mr Lee also pointed to Britain, saying it “recently experienced such political turmoil that one would have thought impossible in Britain”. Last month, it appointed its third prime minister - Rishi Sunak - in two months.
Mr Lee said: “Some people think this will never happen to Singapore, that simply by virtue of being Singaporeans, these things cannot happen to us. That our politics will always work well, the way it has worked for 60 years.
“But in fact, what we have today is not natural at all. This sort of government is rare. Almost everywhere else, governments hardly think beyond the next general election.”
Mr Lee said that Singapore has become like this “only through the blood, sweat and tears of many generations", and because "the people have worked closely with the PAP to solve problems, improve ourselves and create what we enjoy today”.
He told the party members that the PAP cannot take its duty lightly because things can easily go wrong here too.
“There is no magic in our land, water or air. Our people are not inherently better, or smarter, or more virtuous than people in other countries.
"Maybe we are more cohesive but there is no vaccine to protect us from the same dark forces of anger, fear, racism and xenophobia,” Mr Lee added."
So does the PM's statement means we, as Singapore's Citizens, should protect Mr Kwek Kee Seng from being arrested and handed over yo tje illegal USA Hegemonic Authority?
If Kwek is handed over to the Americans, he could be subject to their torture as they try to extract more info from him regarding the North Korean operations. Kwek, just a businessman, will suffer greatly like the Guantanamo Bay terrorist inmates.
US sanctions and not UN sanctions. Why the heck countries shouid care? Are US laws universal and extra territorial?
We should instead give this man a beer for defying a sickening hegemon.
Look what they.are now doing to chips.sale to China. Even allies have to comply with the sanctions .China had been their top and most lucrative customer for these countries.
When those companies from Taiwan, South Korea and Japan manufacture chips in USA, maybe China would not have to buy from them anymore by then. The China market will already be self sufficient. Then they will cry father cry mother and complain to WTO. The USA is fond of cutting it's nose to spite it's face.
But, not to worry. MacDonalds will still be around to buy and sell them. In USA of course. LOL
PM Lee Hsien Loong says if politiic goes wrong, the Governance will go wrong with it.
I fully agree with the Fact of the Statement.
However,
I surmise that if political policy goes wrong, it shall be more dangerous and damaging than wrong politic.
Wrong politic is subject to contention while wrong policy are implemented by those wielding the
Power unilaterally.
Here lies the Problem, the People have no recourse for correction, amendment and redemption.
The Taiwan economy may collapse once TSMC is uprooted to the USA. The chip industry contributed a big chunk to the Taiwan economy and employed a lot of people, including supporting industries.
Once in the US, it would be under the control and coercion of the Americans and would be eventually bought over by the Americans. That would be the end of TSMC and the Taiwan chip making industry.
Why the need for a bounty and broadcast it in Singapore's main media? What is the motive and intent?
To start a riot? To instigate the people against the government?
What is in the mind of the evil Americans to do this crude and rude bounty against a Singaporean? What is the message? Are they testing the Singapore government?
Americans planning a colour revolution in Sin?
