This ignorant teacher must be sacked and...

Below is a post in mothership.sg about an ignorant and full of herself teacher bullying a 9 year old boy in her class and accusing the boy of being misguided and a source of ethnic violence. She is abusing her position as a teacher to attack young children with her twisted views of what is right or wrong, acceptable or unacceptable. She is so ignorant that she did not even know that there is such a thing called beef curry just because her little mind knew that Hindu did not eat beef, so it is offensive to mention beef curry to a Hindu. If this kind of silly and warp thinking and logic are allowed in our schools and society, then many things cannot be said.

This swine of a teacher must be sacked before she does more damage to the children. Her English is half past six at best. She is aggressive and uncultured and inciting violence, telling a child that saying things like beef curry can get him killed. Which backward country would kill a child for saying such a thing?

And if she is a foreigner, send her back to where she came from. MOE please do the necessary and don't sleep on the job. MHA also must act on this before more and more of such rubbish are allowed to create more rubbish and tension in our schools and in our society. The poor boy has been attacked and butchered by this swine teacher in front of her class. The parents of the boy must take up the case with the school and the police for intimidation and verbal assault of a child. A teacher, an adult, bullying a 9 year old child! And some silly cunts with the same kind of mentality said the child's conversation was microaggression on the part of the child. Can you believe that?

Here is the post and tweets from mothership.sg.

A drama teacher in Singapore has taken to Twitter to complain about a nine-year-old student she encountered in one of her classes — only to remove her tweets and account after receiving backlash for her views.

What was she upset about?

Her beef?
A child she was teaching in her drama class had behaved in a manner that was not woke enough and she told the boy off on the spot that it was his type of misguided views that is the cause of ethnic violence.

What did she tweet?

The series of six tweets on July 17 by the drama teacher also referred to the child as an “uncultured swine” and that she “wanted to strangle the kid”.
These were the tweets and the circumstances that led to her calling out the boy’s answers and behaviour:

Praised for correcting child

Over on Twitter, the drama teacher’s tweets received support and empathy from some quarters who could relate to her having to deal with such microaggressions:
The issue was also couched as a result of “Chinese privilege“:

China learning how to hit US using the same American tactic

BEIJING: China on Friday (Jul 12) said it would impose sanctions on US companies involved in a potential arms sale worth US$2.2 billion to self-ruled Taiwan - a move that has infuriated Beijing.

"The US arms sale to Taiwan has severely violated the basic norms of international law and international relations," Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said in an online statement.

"In order to safeguard national interests, China will impose sanctions on US enterprises participating in this sale of weapons to Taiwan," he said.

In the case of American bullying and how to retaliate against such bullying, it is better late than never. The Americans have been using unilateral American domestic laws to apply to countries and citizens of other countries for violating American laws. They are applying their laws across national boundaries, a good example is the arrest of Huawei's Meng Wanzhou and several other citizens including Europeans, for violating American sanctions.

It is time that China applies the same modus operandi on the Americans by arresting Americans for violating Chinese laws. China must introduce more of such laws particularly related to Taiwan like selling arms to Taiwan or to China's enemy, unfortunately the latter there is really none for the moment. Maybe one day China could declare a few enemy countries like Japan, Vietnam or some European countries that are hostile to China and any country trading against such countries would be violating Chinese laws or Chinese sanctions. Not only would China not trade with such countries, companies or individuals, but also arrest their citizens, executives and individuals in areas under Chinese jurisdiction. China should sign more extradition treaties with other countries to extend its reach to arrest those that violate Chinese laws and sanctions like what the Americans are doing.

The sanctions should also be slapped on Americans spreading fake news against China or threatening China like Pompeo, Bolton, Pence, Bannon, Harry Harris, Wolfowitz, etc etc so that they could be arrested when visiting Greater China.

China has now reach a state of military parity with the Americans and can take on the Americans when confronted by American military forces. The American power projection tools are the aircraft carriers, warships and military bases overseas. These are now within the reach of Chinese weapons. The American aircraft carriers in the western Pacific are sitting ducks to China's DF 21 and DF 26 anti ship missiles. The range of DF 26 also extends to the Indian Ocean of those warships and aircraft carriers threatening Iran and Chinese ships in the region could be hit should the Americans turn aggressive.

The Americans are not the only one that can play the game. China too can reply. No longer would China sit idly by if their embassies are attacked by the Americans like the one in Belgrade. It would be a tooth for a tooth.

That is the way to go, China.

Fake news, half truth or what?

SINGAPORE (June 14): Prudential’s Barry Stowe, who retired in Dec 2018, was the highest paid CEO among Singapore listed companies in 2018.

Besides being listed in London, Prudential has a secondary listing on the Singapore Exchange since May 2010.

For lifting the international financial services group’s earnings by 26%, Stowe was given a 7.8% hike in compensation to $16.5 million.

In joint second place was Oxley Holdings’ Ching Chiat Kwong and Xu Cheng Qiu, executive chairman of China Sunsine Chemical Holdings, who were paid $12 million each although Xu’s actual remuneration was still pending review by the board and had not been finalised.

Ching’s amount was about 24% lower than the year before, the property developer’s earnings were up 30.7% between FY2017 and FY2018 while Xu’s pay was up 63.8% over FY2017 as the company’s earnings grew 87.9% over the same period.

How many of you think the above is inaccurate or an elephant is missing? Masagos Zulkifli advised the public by saying this, ' Minister for the Environment and Water Resources Masagos Zulkifli has taken a stand against fake news, cautioning members of the public to check whether the sources of stories are reliable and legitimate before they share news.'

If a piece of information is inaccurate or contains some misleading information, or some missing information, the writer should at least clarify by saying that the information is incomplete and does not give a full picture of the whole truth. Like the above article, we know that some important numbers are not stated and missing, but the writer is passing this off as the whole truth.Are there people earning more than those above and not reported?

Software engineers - Cheap is unlikely to be good

Software used in 737 Max crashes linked to Indian software company

Through an investigative journalism work, Bloomberg published an article today (‘Boeing’s 737 Max Software Outsourced to $9-an-Hour Engineers‘, 29 Jun) establishing that the Boeing’s 737 Max software had been outsourced to Indian software engineers working for only US$9 an hour in India, compared with US$35 to $40 for those in the U.S. on H1B visa or more for a full-time US software engineer.

Bloomberg also found that Boeing’s subcontractors and suppliers were also outsourcing software work to India, in order to keep the cost down and to maximize profits.

Longtime Boeing engineers whom Bloomberg spoke to, revealed that the problematic Max software which was plagued by issues, was developed at a time Boeing was laying off experienced engineers and pressing suppliers to cut costs. Hence, there was a push to outsource work to lower-paid contractors. This led to the reliance on temporary workers making as little as US$9 an hour to develop and test software, often from countries lacking a deep background in aerospace – notably India.

Two Indian software companies were found by Bloomberg to be linked to the Max software development – HCL and Cyient (formerly known as Infotech)....

Two points to make, if you want something to be cheap, don't expect quality or the quality of more expensive stuff. This does not mean that pay more gets more. We have seen and experienced in many areas when you pay more but get less or get shit.

Second point, maybe the Americans are trying to pass the buck to the Indians. So easy to put the blame on other people. Is this the case, are the Americans justified to blame the Indians?  They believe the Indians are very good in software, that is why they employed so many of them just like in Singapore. So how can they blame them. You employed them, shit or genius, you asked for it.

My personal experience has not been pleasant, everything they touched becomes unstable and unreliable. From working to half working.

Even if the Americans could prove that it was the Indian software that caused the crash, Boeing is going to pay for the bills and claims. The Americans would not trust the Chinese software engineers that developed Alibaba's supply chain and Alipay systems nor wechat or Baidu. If the users are stupid enough to pick lemons, why blame others?

In the same vein, if Singapore persistently want to bring in trash to work in this island, be prepared to live with trash and half baked systems.

White men's mischief to invade Iran

After ratcheting up tension in an otherwise peaceful Persian Gulf when shippings flow smoothly, the Americans are accusing the Iranians of raising tension and threatening to invade Iran by their superior naval task force of two aircraft carriers and an assortment of naval and air resources deployed in the region. Anyone reading the western media would have no doubt that Iran is the trouble maker as that was what the western media been saying all the time. The truth is that the world's number one gangster has raised tension to a point of war, and now pretending to be the protector of peace and the sea lanes and twisting the arms of allies to provide military support to patrol the surrounding seas, to protect shipping when there was no need to except along the African coast against small time African pirates.

Now with all the military hardware in place for an invasion of Iran, the UN as usual is as mum as an dumbfuck, pretending not to see, not to know and not do say anything about the American aggression against Iran. The British, the other half of the world number one gangster is also moving in. And the Brits are using the same rhetoric, that Iran is raising tension and threatening British shipping, so they are sending their warships to the protect their shipping.

This is what was reported in the YahooNews.

'Britain said Friday it was sending a second warship to the Gulf and raising the alert level in the oil-rich region as tensions spike after Iranian gunboats threatened a UK supertanker.

The decision was disclosed as US President Donald Trump stepped up his war of words with the Islamic republic, which breached part of a nuclear accord already rejected by Washington.

"Iran better be careful," Trump told reporters outside the White House.

"They're treading on very dangerous territory. Iran, if you're listening, you better be careful."'

They are blaming the Iranians for confronting British ship but ignoring their own hostile act of seizing and arresting an Iranian ship near Gibraltar claiming that the tanker was delivering Iranian oil to Syria. How did an Iranian ship sailing from the Persian Gulf ended in Gibraltar on the way to Syria is as comical as you can get. It means the tanker had to sail around the Cape of Good Hope in South African, into the Atlantic Ocean and turn around through the Straits of Gibraltar to get to Syria instead of going through the Suez Canal.

The western lies are getting more desperate and ridiculous. And the rest of the world just took them without muttering a word. It is fait accompli. When the world's number one gangster said so, no one would dare to question the truth. It is best to keep quiet and turn to look the other way. Better still to join the hostile gangsters to attack Iran, provide military support in the farcical coalition force to protect shipping from being attacked by the American gangsters but blaming the Iranians for it.

What the world needs to be guarded against are the British and American pirates that went around seizing shipping in the high seas. The British seizure of the Iranian tanker is the latest incident. The Americans have been seizing ships from many countries as they want, calling themselves the international policeman but in reality international pirates, international gangsters of the high seas.

When would the UN form a coalition of forces to protect shipping from the American and British pirates?
