The latest appointment of another Singaporean to be the dean of NUS
School of Public Health is a sign that Singaporeans have started to
rediscover themselves and growing more confident in their own abilities
after a couple of decades of worshipping fake and dubious foreign
talents. For two or three decades there was this sinking feeling that
Singaporeans are really daft and useless people despite their claims of
aceing their academic tests from the best universities in the world. As a
result of this self doubt, not sure which donkey started this myth and
trend, many foreigners were brought in as foreign talents to replace
Singaporeans in many top appointments, including the academia. Today,
NTU and to a lesser extent NUS has a predominant foreign presence that
did not augur well for the future of Singaporean talents. If the trend
continues, one day a minister would say they have started a programme to
train Singaporean academics and it would take another 50 years for them
to be ready.
Professor Tan Chorh Chuan, NUS President, has been reported to say that
NUS went on a world tour of sort, to look for the best in the world to
fill the position of the dean of Saw Swee Hock School of Public Health
only to find that the incumbent vice dean Professor Teo Yik Ying is
still the best man in the world, to be the dean of the School. Should
there be a sigh of relief that Singaporeans are now confident enough to
look at themselves and confidently tell themselves that we are really
the best in the world and not second liners to foreigners?
Would this appoint of Professor Teo be a revival of faith and trust in
Singaporean talents and their ability as among the best in the world and
the stupidity of thinking that any foreigner, with dubious backgrounds
and qualifications that could not be verified or unknown to us, is the
best man to helm our institutions? Would there be a soul searching in
the top circle of Singapore elite to reflect on this silliness over the
last two decades to adore everything foreign and start to have faith in
Singaporeans?
We built many great organizations and institutions only to import
foreigners to take them over and to replace more Singaporeans with their
respective foreigners, leaving Singaporeans in the lurch, destroying
their faith and confidence in the process and resign to the fate of
being security guards and taxi drivers or temp workers.
If Singaporeans have no faith in Singaporeans and their abilities,
Singaporeans will be the ones that will destroy Singapore by importing
dubious foreigners that could not build their own countries, failures in
their own countries, to take over this island, the island built by
Singaporeans.

Racist F&B outlet replied S'pore is not Saudi Arabia when asked if they were halal
This guy Chun message an F&B outlet selling pork dishes and asked if
the outlet was halal. The outlet replied and this guy went on to accuse
the outlet for being racist. Who do you think is the racist and the
mischievous one? Ask an outlet selling pork if it is halal is like
asking a Muslim outlet if it is halal and the reply could be more curd
than this one. To me this twit was asking for it.
What do you think? Below is his post in All Singapore Stuff.
Was actually happy when they reopened, because my fiance and I used to frequent them before they disappeared for awhile without any notice. It really seems as per what a customer said in an earlier review - that they do not take pride in their eatery nor value their customers.
Yesterday I facebook messaged them (Sunset Grill & Pub Pte Ltd) to ask if they are Halal certified. My message was simple: "Hi are you guys halal certified?"
The reply was shocking and upsetting: "Hi Chun. Why do you ask such a question. This is Singapore not Saudi Arabia. Anyway. You'll be pleased to know that we are a pork loving restaurant. Peace be with you."

Attacking N Korea could be a disguise to attacking China and Russia
The raising of tension by Trump and his threat to attack N Korea must not be seen in isolation. Attention for the moment has been directed at a possible attack on N Korea with little thought on what if this is only a disguise, and excuse to launch American nuclear weapons to attack China and Russia? Let everyone be alerted to the possibility that ICBMs flying towards N Korea could be diverted once at the border of China and Russia and both countries would have no time to react and be blown to pieces before they know what was happening.
American ICBMs cruising towards N Korea are as good as cruising towards China and Russia. Both countries are in the same flight path, same trajectory path. What better excuse would the Americans have to launch ICBMs with the Chinese and Russians misled into thinking that the ICBMs are heading towards N Korea when the real targets are China and Russia? At certain range from the borders of Russia and China, in fact once it is launched, and if China and Russia did not launch them as the same time towards the USA, the two countries are as good as cooked.
Would the military strategists and military commanders allow the Americans to launch their ICBMs towards N Korea when there is no guarantee that they would not change course in mid space? Would China and Russia trust the Americans firing their nuclear tipped ICBMs in their direction and think all is fine when the consequences could be the end of China and Russia?
China and Russia may tolerate a conventional war in the Korean Peninsula and play along as long as the war can be contained, limited. But once ICBMs are flying, it is all a different proposition altogether. When the Americans fired their ICBMs, there is no option left for China and Russia not to fire theirs at the Americans. There is no fail safe when the ICBMs are launched and no room for error.
The whole N Korean crisis could be an American ploy to lull everyone into a state of complacency. The main objective could be an all out attack against China, Russia and all other nuclear powers, to wipe them out without them knowing what hit them until it is too late..
Would the number one outlaw masquerading as the world's policeman be arrested before they commit the final crime against civilisation and the human race? This outlaw is an international terrorist on all counts and must be stopped immediately.

There is nothing wrong with Singapore being pro Americans
Singapore or any country is constantly being pressured by circumstances to make choices especially in its relations with the big powers and with its neighbours. These are realities that Singapore has to live with and ignoring them blindly would court disasters to the country and people.
Singapore for many years has been sleeping with the Americans for good reasons. No need to explain this further. The problem facing Singapore today is the increasing demands by the Americans in their quest for world domination, to control the world by creating trouble spots all over the world. As long as the rest of the world is in trouble and bogged down by conflicts, these countries would not be a threat to the American hegemony and even have to depend on the Americans for mercies. This is the American game plan.
As such, Singapore has increasingly being dragged into the deep end and increasingly losing its own bearing and control of its own future. Singapore’s neutrality and national interest have been compromised by the Americans. Singapore is being cornered to become enemies of Americans’ enemies and unable to extricate itself from the quicksand. The Americans are very happy to be squeezing Singapore by its balls.
The earlier position of Singapore balancing between the big powers is past. Singapore no longer has this privilege to balance especially in its relations with China and the US. Though Singapore has been spurting about not being influenced by foreign powers, the overwhelming influence by the Americans on Singapore’s policies and decision is stark and very unfavourable to Singapore.
There is nothing wrong with Singapore being closely allied to the Americans. The caveat, it must not be compromised to become an American stooge and make enemies of China and Russia or neighbouring countries. Singapore must tell the Americans that there are certain positions that it must not take. It is like freedom. Singapore’s freedom or alignment with the Americans goes as far as it does not harm its relations with other countries or compromise the interest of other countries. The Americans, if they valued Singapore as a friend, an ally, must give space for Singapore to navigate in turbulent waters.
Singapore must not think that it has no leverage against the Americans and must be beholden to the Americans and do the will of the Americans. The Americans have no friends in the region. Many of the regional countries have fundamental differences with the Americans and American way of life in being Muslim countries. These countries are not reliable as long term allies of the Americans. Singapore is the only exception that can be closed to the Americans and be durable friends provided the Americans did not fixed Singapore to a point that it is forced to make a choice between the devil and the deep blue sea.
The Americans need Singapore more than Singapore needs the Americans. The Americans need Singapore to protect their interest in the region, to protect their Empire and to rule the world. Without Singapore, the Americans would not have a secure foothold in the region to promote their interests and project American power.
This is the bargaining chip for Singapore. Singapore can be good to the Americans but the Americans must also be good to Singapore and allowed Singapore room to breathe. Silly Singaporeans that chose to bury themselves together with the Americans and to become enemies of other countries are short sighted and dangerous. The future of Singapore is to be as neutral as possible while aligning with the Americans. Once Singapore forgot this basic principle, it is asking for its own irrelevance in being an important player in the region.
Would Singapore make itself relevant or allowed the Americans to make it irrelevant in realpolitik? Who is really influencing and pressurizing Singapore against Singapore’s interests? Some daft and shallow thinking Singaporeans would want Singapore to become little USA thinking that sitting on the shoulder of an evil Empire would allow them to talk like an arrogant spoilt brat. This is a very dangerous position for Singapore to take and has no room to escape when things turned bad.

Western media and their distorted news to influence the unwary
Yesterday’s headlines, ‘N Korea threatens to strike Guam’ in most
western media and Little USA’s media have this as their front page news.
This is the distorted truth that they want their readers to read to
form the impression that it is the N Koreans that are threatening the
Americans.
The truth that they refused to tell is that it was Trump, the Americans, that are raising tension and threatening war against the North Koreans. The Americans have consistently and repeatedly said all options are on the table, including a nuclear strike. And Trump added recklessly by saying that N Korea would face fire and fury and American power the world has not seen before.
North Korea’s threat to strike Guam is in response to the American threat of fire and fury and American power. It is a reaction to an imminent threat of war, an attack by the Americans. This fact is not reported and would not be reported in western biased media. They would not want to give the impression that the Americans are the ones that are threatening war against the N Koreans.
And the innocent and unwary readers, especially unthinking Singaporeans, would yell it is the N Koreans that are threatening to attack the Americans. Are the N Koreans as daft as the daft Singaporeans to think that it is a good thing to attack the Americans without being wiped out from the surface of this earth? How silly are these unthinking people?
Who is threatening war everyday? Which is capable of war and thinking that it could get away with it? The most evil one of course, the world’s number one outlaw country, the USA. The thing they forgot is that it is a different thing altogether to threaten another nuclear power that can hit back.
The more the American despot threatens the N Koreans, there would be more likelihood for the N Koreans to make a misstep and launch their nuclear weapons against the Americans. And they have all the reasons to assume an American preemptive strike and could miscalculate or misread a wrong move and all hell would break loose.
The silly Americans should zip their gaps before they invite calamity to the American people by their stupidity and rhetoric. The N Koreans are on tenterhook and could jump the gun. And if they do so, it is the fault of the Americans for raising tension beyond the level of rationality. And stop flying nuclear bombers over the Korean Peninsula to threaten the N Koreans. An edgy soldier might pull the trigger and poops, down comes one nuclear bomber and the beginning of armaggeddon.
Today’s headline, “North Korea plans to fire missiles near Guam ‘in days’” Now the N Koreans are fully in the game of chicken. The Americans flew nuclear bombers over the Korean Peninsula as a right and now threatening to shoot down N Korean missiles landing around Guam. Should the N Koreans threaten to shoot down the nuclear bombers over flying the Korean Peninsula?
The Americans have been threatening to attack every country with no one talking back. Russia, China and even Iran have kept mum and refused to engage in American war of words. The Americans have found a match in the N Koreans, meeting them word for word, threat for threat.
How now American cow?
