The Abe Administration is not going to hide anything from their
intention to revive Japanese Imperialism. They have taken so many
actions to defy and provoke China and the Koreas with the backing of the
Americans. The condescending attitude to the Americans, hands in glove
with the Japanese, cannot be hidden anymore. The Japanese knew very well
that the Americans would have to go along with them if they want the
Japanese to be a part of their pivot to Asia to counter the rise of
China. The Americans are now the willing master to let the Japanese
rearm and to become another big military power like its past. It is a
marriage of the American mafia and the Yakuza.
Abe has repeatedly been provoking the Chinese and the Koreans over the
territorial disputes and claiming that those islands were Japanese. He
has led a movement to rewrite Japanese history to erase its invasion of
Asian countries and the barbaric records or killings and lootings of
these countries. The comfort women that Japan forced onto Asian women
were to be rewritten as Asian women volunteering to be prostitutes to
Japanese soldiers. The Nankin Massacre would be whitewashed as fake or
nothing of that sort.
The visits to the war criminals in Yasukuni Shrine have been revived and
will become a routine ceremony to honour war criminals, Japanese
military aggression and invasion of its neighbouring countries.
Japan will be allowed to play a bigger military role in the region
including fighting on the side of American allies. Abe’s latest move was
to set up a military base in the southern most island near Taiwan and
the disputed islands of Diaoyu/Senkaku.
The Japanese pacific constitution will be amended for Japan to resume its Imperial past and be a military power.
The conniving Americans are in this with the Japanese up to their necks.
The USA has unleashed the most aggressive war dog of Asia to take on
China and is not holding it back. The Japanese have been given the green
light to take on China and the Koreans. Hopefully that would be all,
and not the rekindling dream of the Japanese Empire over Asia.
With the aggressive and ambitious Japanese on the loose, and with the
Americans behind them, war in Asia is only a matter of when. Japanese
Imperialism and remilitarization is on the go. China cannot afford to be
soft while the Japanese keep on advancing in every front to challenge
its influence and to hold on to the loots of war time Japanese
Imperialism. The two Koreans too would be in the cross hairs of Japan’s
military expansionism.
The message of the 150 lawmakers visiting Yasukuni is simply that they
are proud of what they had done during the Second World War, no shame
and would do it again. Asia is waiting to be on fire.
The message from Obama is that the Americans would support and protect
its allies, in this case Japanese expansionism. On the other hand he
would want China to betray its allies and restrain them, in this case
North Korea.

The AEC or Asean musical chair
When the Asean Economic Community comes into effect it will turn the
employment scene in Asean into a game of musical chairs. So far we have
been assured by ministers in Parliament that there will be no free flow
of professionals to work in any Asean country. If that is the case then
the musical chair game may not work. If it is in the same nature as that
of CECA with India, then this game will be played ten times more
vigorously.
All the PMEs and workers would want to find a job in Sin City. With the relative high pay and excellent currency exchange rates, it is a sure win situation for every Asean country workers to get a job here. So when the music is played, all will be rushing for the Singapore chairs. When the music stops, every Singapore chair will probably have ten players sitting on it. The rest of the chairs would likely to be vacant waiting for takers.
And who will be left standing? The Sinkies of course, and it is unlikely for them to take up the empty chairs in the other Asean countries. The music can be repeated over and over again and the end result will be the same, Sinkies will be left standing and with many chairs from the Asean countries not taken.
Don’t ask me why it will end up this way, but this is how the game of musical chairs will be played. Sinkies’ idea of putting a piece of tissue paper to chope their chairs would be greatly disappointed. The foreigners would not play the same rule. They would throw away the tissue papers.

The richest man/woman in history
It is not Bill Gates or Warren Buffett. It is not the Sultan of Brunei
or any of the oil sheilks in the Middle East either. It is not some
kings or monarchs of an empire. It is not King Soloman either. I know
what you are thinking. No, dead wrong.
Adam and Eve, they owned the whole mother earth and everything on it. They owned the mountains and oceans, and all the living things and resources in them. They need not fear of running out of fish or food. No fear of running out of minerals, commodities or energy sources. They lived a life of plentiful.
We are considered the richest people in the world. Every one in two Sinkie is a millionaire. We have everything money can buy. We think we are rich. Everyone think we are rich. Are we? Why are we told to cut down on the use of water, don’t bath for too long? Don’t waste petrol or drive cars, take public transport, cycle will be better. We are told not to waste food as food and resources are depleting. We may run out of fish in the ocean and food crops not enough. Why?
They are all kinds of organizations and kind souls telling everyone to save mother earth as we all over consuming and exploiting the resources, fossil fuel will run out, we burnt a big hole in the sky. We need to stop polluting the environment, we need to grow green. Why? Are we rich, very rich? Oops, sorry, the message not to waste or over consume is meant for the losers. You think the rich cares? You really think they are saving mother earth and are conscious of their destructive habits?
We have plenty when we were 200,000, 2m, 3m. No one told us not to waste food and resources. No one told us to cut down on usage of water or what we eat. No one was worried that the ocean was running out of fish and the land out of food crop.
Now we are rich, damn rich, and we are 5.4m going to 6.9m and not going to stop there. When we hit 6.9m, what have we got to forego, how many cups of water will be the ration, how many bowl of rice day, meat on alternate days, no cars except for the very rich. Everyone cycles around, and everyone a multi millionaire.
So? Are we richer than Adam and Eve? They don’t have motor vehicles, no TV, no smart phones, no aircon, no modern convenience. But they have the whole world to themselves.
I don’t think anyone wants to be Adam and Eve and owns the whole world. And I doubt anyone wants to be a multi millionaire when he has to ration what he eats and drinks and how many cups of water to bath in a day. Where is the right balance, 3m, 5m, 6.9m or 10m or more? Do you want to be rich but have less and with less ration to live on? Do you need Earth Days, Light’s off day? Do you need greenpeace, green movments, ….?
We have 7b people sharing everything on earth when only Adam and Eve used to share them. And for the 7b, actually only a few are sharing the earth while the rest are only having as much as the land below his feet of the air around him.
How rich are you? How many people you want to share your little piece of rock?
PS. This article is to gives an idea on how far we have come as a civilization and how we have diluted the share of our resources from 2 person, hypothetically or theologically, to nearly 7 billion people worldwide, and distributed disproportionally. And in our little island, how we are sharing everything with 5.4m when we were less than 3m. And of course the sharing is very unequal and that makes it more painful for those who are getting less than enough to get by.

Your CPF savings absolutely safe even after you die
Many of you have dutifully made a nomination for your CPF savings upon
your death and feeling very comfortable and secure about it, believing
that your nominated beneficiary will enjoy a windfall as a result. This
is what the CPF Board says when it happens,
‘If a valid nomination had been made, the beneficiaries will receive the deceased’s CPF monies and assets, which include the following:
a) CPF savings in the Ordinary, Special, Medisave and Retirement Accounts, if any.
b) Discounted SingTel (ST) shares, if any.’
So, feeling very good and assured that your money will go to the person you willed to receive them. Yes, your beneficiary will receive the money left in your CPF. But he/she will not be able to on a shopping spree and say what a nice chap you are. Only the CPF will be smiling. He/she can only smile at the CPF statement saying your money has been moved into his/her account from your account. There is a debit and a credit. No cash transfer!
Get the picture? They don’t get a cash cheque. They will get a paper transfer, and depending on their age, their MSS, they might not be able to touch the money, don’t ever think of spending it. Your CPF savings will remain in the CPF, from one account to another account, and remain there, absolutely safe, untouchable. This is what is going to your last few dollars in your CPF savings after you saved for a life time. No one is going to spend it.
Is this good news or bad news? Should the money of a deceased be cashed out, a cheque sent to the beneficiary to enjoy the last few dollars the loving spouse or parents willed to them? Why should it remain in the CPF, albeit in the beneficiary’s account?
How can you let this happen? How can you accept the govt doing this to your life savings even after you pass away?
What does this mean? What is happening? Your CPF not your money? CPF, please clarify and confirm on this and please inform the people when this change was made, and by who?
PS. I hope I am wrong on this.TRE or any aggregator, please do not post this in your site until more details are available. It is confirmed that the Medisave portion is not returned according to Alex Tan.

MH370 – When the show is over
More than one and a half months of frantic and fruitless search for
MH370 in the Antarctics have proven nothing. Not a trace on MH370 or a
piece of debris. The families of the victims are starting to question
the purpose of this search, was is a joke, or was it a planned or
misguided search into a wrong area, a red herring from the start?
Have all the victims and the govts been misled into a foolish exploration of the Antarctic Ocean when they should be looking somewhere else for MH370? The conspiracy theory is gaining more credibility, that this elaborate scam or espionage was conducted to serve someone’s agenda, and in the course of its execution and the need to hide its trails, everyone is made a fool of?
If all the information given from day one was to disinform, to misinform, to fool everyone to look into the Antarctic, a cruel act of deceit and treachery, should the people involved in the disinformation and misinformation be prosecuted for such a wicked crime devoid of compassionate and human kindness when there are hundreds grieving and waiting for the loved ones to return?
Should an enquiry be conducted on how the information was disseminated that were untrue or sheer fabrications with flimsy level of credibility but pushed through as the truth, as real evidence to mislead everyone on a wild goose chase? Anyone has any doubts about the information provided and wanting to know the source and the whys while the passengers and the aircraft are still no where to be seen?
