The reasons given by Najib to confirm that MH370 was down in the
southern Indian Ocean was simply bullshitting. Let me quote what he
said, ‘ Immarsat, the British company that has provided satellite data
indicating the plane had either flown in a northern or southern
corridor, had performed further calculations of the data, using a type
of analysis never before used in an investigation of this sort. Based on
the new analysis, Immarsat and Britain’s Air Accidents Investigation
Branch concluded that MH370 ended up in the southern corridor.’
What the above means is that they did not know. And the new analysis is
‘guessing’ or nothing more than the prediction of a bomoh. It is a very
flimsy reason to use as justification for knowing where the aircraft
was. But this does not mean that the aircraft was not where it was said
to be. Many people knew, especially the rogue states involved in this
crime against humanity. When Abbott jumped the gun to inform Najib, his
eagerness and haste were signs that he knew. How would he know when there was no
concrete evidence? Who told him?
From the final position of the MH370, it is obvious that no pilot, no
matter how mad or fanatical, would have flown it there. A terrorist
pilot or organization would have announced to the world of this great
feat to spite whoever it wanted. And there was no reason after getting
away to want to kill himself.
The location of the MH370 resting place could mean the aircraft took two
possible routes. One route was to Diego Garcia and the other was to a
military airfield in Australia, unloaded whatever, refueled and dumped
in the southern Indian Ocean. The route to Diego Garcia would be picked
up by India as it had avoided the Indonesian radars. India conveniently
told the world that it was so poor and could not afford to switch on
their military radars all the time. Can you believe that?
This whole tragedy involved at least one rogue state. And from the
beginning of the incident till now, the actions and comments of the
rogue states were as innocent as angels. They did not know, but they did
it. It is state terrorism and of the worst kind. 239 lives were
sacrificed, terminated, by evil people who conducted this operation. It
is unforgiveable, and it must have the consent from people in very high
places who put on an act throughout the episode while the families of
the passengers agonized in pain.
They must be made to pay for it.

MH370 - Crashed into southern Indian Ocean, says Najib
It is so unbelieveable! Just heard Najib on live telecast pronouncing that MH370 crashed into the southern Indian Ocean. This conclusion is derived from some mathematical calculation or computation, a new method not unlike the use of bomoh, of satellite information on MH370 done by the British civil aviation experts. Can you believe it?
While the rest of the search parties were still unable to sight or confirm any debris seen as part of MH370, Najib has accepted the computation of some satellite projections like the astronomers making some calculations to say a meteor will appear here or there.
I smelt a conspiracy just like my bad feelings when Australian PM Abbott jumped the gun to call Najib of some rubbish found in the Indian Ocean. It was like he already knew that the debris was from MH370, like he was tipped off. And now Najib is accepting a finding without any solid evidence.
How did the aircraft flew along the so called southern corridor, passing Indonesia without being detected by Indonesian radars or the KLIA radar? It is not a stealth aircraft for sure. It is a flying mammoth in the air.
And was there any logical reason for the pilot to fly 239 people on board all the way to the southern Indian Ocean to crash and kill everyone, without anyone being able to make a phone call out from the aircraft? The whole episode suggested that there must be many people involved in restraining 239 people on board. And they all died together with the MH370 passengers? And the blackboxes are so silent!
What is going on? Who is behind this whole tragedy or tragicomedy? I am still in a state of shock at Najib's pronouncement based on whatever was given to him as proof of the where about of MH370. It was like someone crashing the aircraft and getting a bomoh to tell him yes, that is where the aircraft had crashed.
Let's see what other evidences Najib is going to disclose in tomorrow's press conference.

MH370 – A case for transparency
The Chinese have been accusing the Malaysian Govt for lack of
transparency and withholding information on the MH370 and hindering
investigation into its disappearance. It is understandable if
information is sensitive and could compromise national security. But
what is so sensitive about the cargo manifest?
I quote from Yahoo News, ‘Hansford, chairman of Strategic Aviation Solutions, said the Malaysian government's decision not to publish the cargo manifest from flight MH370 suggests they are not being fully transparent.
“To me, there is no reason why they wouldn’t declare the cargo manifest unless you’ve got something to hide,” he said.
“There is no reason you wouldn’t have given it to AMSA (the Australian Maritime Safety Authority) on the first day of the search.”’
There are serious problems here. The Malaysian Govt has been quoted to say that there were several tons of mangosteen and rambutans or durians in the cargo hold. And there could be more. The reluctance to disclose the cargo manifest is creating more doubts and suspicion as to what really were in the cargo hold. Just because it was stated to be mangosteens or other fruits does not mean that it must be so. Likewise, just because a passenger checked in to be an American or whatever, needed be so.
There is a need to know the truth and more transparency needed from the Malaysian Govt. If they did not want to make it public, they could reveal it to govts with vested interests in the case with the provision of confidentiality. The cargo manifest could hold some clues to the case. Who knows, the mangosteens and fruits could be hijackers and their weapons. Who knows?
What is there to hide this information? The Malaysian Govt has a case to answer and needs to answer it fast. In fact it is already too late. That does not mean that they should no longer disclose the real content in the cargo hold of MH370. Have they investigated the cargo handlers or whoever had access to the cargo hold and could load things into the aircraft?
PS. I have a more interesting story by piecing a few leads together and it makes a lot of sense. Will hammer the story together and get it out tomorrow. It has a lot to do with the tons of mangosteens and durians on board MH370.

Meritocracy above nationality
‘Grit, groundedness and good sense should count as much. Finding the
best people must entail appointing whoever can do the job best,
regardless of gender, race, age, background, or even nationality.
So please, let’s go easy on the anti-foreigner ‘Singaporean first’ rhetoric that has become so popular these days. Give the job to whoever will deliver when it counts.’
I lifted the above quote by Warren Fernandez, ST Editor, from an editorial post in the TRE titled, ‘ST editor uses MH370 incident to champion pro-FT policy’
Many politicians and non politicians have been saying the same thing about meritocracy and may the best men be employed regardless of nationality. It means that Sinkies must give way if a better man can be found to replace him. I just want to remind these charlatans that the Sinkies are the citizens and NSmen of this country and have been conscripted to defend this country with their lives. Their family members have to live with their sacrifices to protect this country. If they can be so easily replaced by foreigners, then there is no reason or need for them to serve NS when their sacrifice for the country means nothing.
What are they defending when the political leaders and the elite do not think twice to replace them with supposedly ‘more able foreigners’? Is this the message to be told to the NS men, the citizens of this country? Should the govt disband National Service since NSmen are dispensable if they are found no better than a foreigner? The govt demands loyalty and a pledge to fight and die for the country from NSmen. What shall the NSmen demand from the govt for their ultimate sacrifice to die defending this country when they can be replaced by foreigners so easily?
What is happening? Now who is talking cock?

The virtuous cycle of fee hikes
Sinkies are blessed with a very generous govt that despite the its
policy against a welfare state when giving money freely to the people is
frowned upon, the govt is always there to help the people whenever
there is a fee hike. Fee hikes of any form or nature will always be
accompanied by the govt giving more subsidies to help the people to
defray the rising fees.
The latest tuition fee hikes in universities and polytechnics again sees the govt coming out with more subsidies and grants to help the people. During his budget speech last month, DPM Tharman announced that the government will provide more support to more students for bursaries. The per capita monthly household income threshold will be raised from $1,700 to $1,900. This will cover students from two-thirds of all Singaporean households, he said. Thus only one third of all Singaporean households will be affected by the higher fees.
University undergraduates from the lowest one-third of households will see their bursaries increase to from S$2,900 to S$3,600 a year. Bursaries for middle-income students will be S$2,600 – this is an increase from S$2,150.
Polytechnic and Institute of Technical Education (ITE) students from middle-income households will also get more support. ITE bursaries for lower-income students will be higher than their fees, helping them defray living expenses, he said.
This is the virtuous cycle created by the govt, raise fees, raise subsidies, people pay new and higher fees with the subsidies, and the higher revenue goes back to the govt? Even if it does not go back to the govt directly, it still goes back to somewhere while the subsidies given to the people will just slip through their hands and disappeared just as quickly as they received it.
This is a very nice formula to tell the people that the govt is helping them with the rising cost and would guarantee that the people would always be grateful to a kind, compassionate and generous govt. It keeps on giving and taking and giving and taking and the people will not feel the pain if there is any.
