Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday warned the Centre of a new variant of coronavirus disease (Covid-19) found in Singapore and said that it can result in India's third wave.

The virus, Kejriwal said, is extremely dangerous for children and asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government to immediately halt air services with Singapore and prioritise vaccination drive for children.

"The new form of Corona that came to Singapore is being said to be extremely dangerous for children, in India it may come as a third wave. My appeal to the central government are air services with Singapore to be cancelled with immediate effect and prioritise the options for vaccinating children at the earliest," the Delhi chief minister tweeted.

Did I read it right, the variant that came from India to Singapore is very dangerous to children, especially in India, and could result in India's third wave? And Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwalis telling Modi to stop flights from Singapore to India? And Singapore is still not banning travel to and from India and still allowing flights from India to come to Singapore?

What is going on? India more dangerous or Singapore more dangerous? New Delhi's chief minister could see how dangerous this variant is and wanted to protect the children of India! Did our millionaires also know how dangerous this variant is and want to do something to protect our children from it, or never mind, it would not affect us, it would not affect our children. They know best? Our children would not be affected?

How many school children here already affected huh?


What do you think?

How To Guard Oneself Against Falsehood In The World Of Propaganda - Part 1

 

I go for the main government mouth-piece of any country for the half truths because I know that all government mouth-piece are their advertising bill-boards, their propaganda machines. So, I will never take their words at face value. As I read them, I sieve out the truths from the half-truths, and the half-truths from the lies and vice versa.

I go to non-government, private and commercial news outlets for their news but always keep in mind that these news outlets are profit-driven. That means I have to be careful about my emotions. I must not allow myself to be dragged in by the sensationalisation of the news reporting and news reporters/readers.

I go to the social media for the opinions, views, critical comments and the facts in order to give myself a huge reservoir of data, information and knowledge, so that I will be able to identify, discern, distinguish, differentiate and interpret what is truth and what is untruth, or half-truths from the mass of information and disinformation out there in the cyberspace.

And I often go to Google and Wikipedia, and other search engines to find historical facts in order to verify what I have read.

I call the whole process: The Intelligence Cycle, which can be broken down into clear distinct stages for ease of understanding (usually there is no distinct stages in the brain - everything happens intuitively in a haphazard manner), as follows:

1. Collection.
2. Collation.
3. Processing.
4. Analysis.
5. Interpretation.
6. Options.
7. Conclusion.

Israel's pride, Palestinian tragedy...and American support for the genocide continues

 

Photo credits to RT and Al Jazeera

Above are pics from RT showing the damage caused by intense bombings by Israel on Gaza. And the Israelis are not holding back and confidently announced that they would intensified their attacks on the Hamas like a true conqueror, a mighty gangster that is invincible and unstoppable. No one, not even the UN, could stop the slaughter of the Palestinians with the Americans, the 'champions of Muslims' in Xinjiang standing firmly behind this killing of the Palestinian Muslims.

The Muslim world is incensed by the American and European support for Israel in this genocide of Muslims.  Aren't they the supporters and protectors of Muslims?  Oh, only for Muslims in Xinjiang that were having a great and peaceful life there.  They needed to pretend to support the Ugyhurs to incite them to turn into terrorists and suffered like the Palestinians in warfare. They could not tolerate Muslims living peacefully, happily and well in Xinjiang.

And the killings of Muslim Palestinians will go on and on, mercilessly, by the Israelis with overwhelming fire power supplied by the Americans and the western powers. With the Americans and the West behind the Israelis, the butchering will go on and on at their pleasure.

This is how loving and caring the Americans and the West are for the Muslims, watching and supporting and protecting the Israelis while they massacred the Palestinians. Palestinian Muslims have no human rights to live by, unlike their darling Uyghur Muslims?

PS. From RT.

'“If we do not immediately stop Israel’s aggression in Palestine and… in Jerusalem, tomorrow, everyone would be a target of this brutal mentality,” the Turkish president warned. Erdogan also gave a scathing rebuke to the officials who supported Israel’s actions in Gaza.

Those who chose to remain silent or backed Israel “for political and ideological reasons should know that their turn will come one day” as well, he said.

Earlier, leaders of several Western nations including Austria and Germany expressed their support for Israel’s right of “self-defense.” Leaders of France and the UK also earned praise from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for supporting Tel Aviv.'

The changing map of Israel, from nothing to what it is today. As for the Palestinians,  from everything to nearly nothing today.

Creation of Israel in 1948 by British and Americans from Palestinian land. The whole piece of land, blue and green were colonised and ruled by the British. They carved out the blue part for the Israelis and transported the surviving Jews from the holocaust in Europe to this land. See how the European Jews were given a piece of Arab/Palestinian land to form a state called Israel? See how the Palestinians were broken up and not able to form a state?

 

After the 6 Days War in 1967, the Israelis expanded their territories at the expense of Palestinian land. Only two parcels of the land were left for the Palestinians, Gaza and West Bank.

Today, the Israelis settlers moved into West Bank and occupied many parts of it and the Palestinians were left in separate clusters all over West Bank. The other part of Palestinian land left was Gaza, the target of Israelis aerial bombings these few days. Gaza is the tiny strip of green on the left.

How could the Palestinian form a country when they were broken up in pieces in their homeland with most of the land now occupied by Israel. Anyone helping the Palestinians to regain their lost land?

Yes, the kind Americans, now protecting the Israelis in their bombing of Gaza. And with each year passing, the land of the Palestinians gets smaller and smaller, with the Americans' blessing. And the Arabs still believe the Americans are fair and just and would help them and the Palestinians in getting their land back.

So pathetic, so silly. How could the British and Americans broke up the land into separate bits for the Palestinians to build a country? What was their intent and agenda in 1948? What fricking idea was that? It was meant to fail from the start.

See how evil and mischievous were the British and Americans against the Arabs/Muslims, specifically the Palestinians? From the start, the Palestinians were scattered in different parts of their land and could not possibly form a country. They were set up to be gobbled up by the Israelis over time when the latter grew in strength. What happened to them today is the result that was conceived by the British and Americans in 1948, a crime against the Palestinians, the Muslims and the Arabs.

The genocide of the Palestinians is real and on going, compares to the farcical fabricated genocide in Xinjiang cooked up by the AngloSaxons that no one would believe is happening.

The Spread of Vicious Viruses Is Caused By Irresponsible People and Irresponsible Leaders

So far, more than 10 schools, tuition centres, colleges and kindergartens have been infected collectively.

There may be many more that went undetected or unreported.

This present B1617 series of Covid-19 viruses produced by India is notoriously much, much more infectious than their predecessors, and more deadly too.

The previous Covid viruses only killed the old and weak within a month or so. These present India-produced Covid B1617 viruses killed the old, the weak, as well as the young and the healthy within 10 days or so. And they display no symptoms until the very last moment when the probability of death is very high. Without pure oxygen pumping into the lungs to help the patient to breath, the patient will die of suffocation, brain-dead, heart attack or kidney failure.

Most of those who got infected are people who flouted the proper way of wearing their masks, or those who stubbornly refused to wear a mask - eg taking it off while talking on the phone or talking to friends; not wearing masks while playing at public playgrounds and facilities; not wearing a mask while giving Speeches of teaching; standing too close to people who are smoking at home or in public places; attending Tae Kwon Do classes at Clubs or CCs; eating at crowded popular public places (like the Changi Airport canteen and cafeteria and Kopitiams), and wearing the mask over the chin instead of covering the mouth and nose, while taking public transport.

Naturally, such irresponsible people also become super-spreaders once they have been infected.

Therefore, basically, the spreading of the vicious virus is mainly caused by irresponsible people and irresponsible leaders who allowed the virus to enter the country, despite so many warnings given by their own citizens and others.

CECA - the most controversial agreement Singapore has signed

 

 

In a post on Thursday (Apr 29) evening, Mr Ramachandran wrote: “WE WILL NOT BE SILENCED!
WE WILL NOT GO AWAY!
WE WILL NOT MAGICALLY DISAPPEAR!
CUT AWAY 1 HEAD AND 10 HEADS WILL TAKE UP ITS PLACE!
WE WILL KEEP RISING LIKE A PHOENIX FROM ASHES!”

“Please help share the below link to invite fellow Singaporean patriots to join this group to support the fight back to take back control of our Professional, Management, Executive & Technical (PMET) jobs for Singapore citizens”, he added.

Above were copied from theindependent.com

The mentioned of CECA drew intense anger and disapproval for this one sided agreement signed between India and Singapore leading to a disproportional number of Indians working in Singapore and the loss of thousands of Singaporean PMET jobs. Accepted that it is difficult to prove the co relation in the numbers of PMETs losing their jobs to the Indians being employed, it is a known fact that a few hundred Indians are employed here on Employment Pass and Work Permits and thousands of PMETs are now unemployed or underemployed or prematurely retired, wanting to work but unable to find decent work relevant to their experience and skills. This is very painful and financially crippling to many Singaporean families when the breadwinners lost their jobs and unable to sustain the families. Financial hardship and emotional and psychological stress and hurt followed.

How on earth is this CECA allowed to continue for so long and being extended over and over again when so many PMETs are losing their jobs and having to downgrade, to look for lower paying jobs? How could anyone turn a blind eye to the anger and haplessness of Singaporeans, and taking for granted that the Singaporeans that were victims of this notorious agreement would continue to support the govt and accept their fate and unemployment, unable to put food on the table as normal?

And why was Facebook banning this group? Who told Facebook to ban this group appealing for the termination of CECA?

When would Singaporeans be treated fairly in their own countries? Why are Singaporeans made to suffer under this agreement? No, not true, this agreement has nothing to do with the unemployment of Singaporeans, it was all because they were not skilled, not qualified, their skills no longer needed in the market?

This is a crime against Singaporeans but is there anyone listening to their cries and doing something positive to alleviate their plight?  Anyone really care or just giving some lip service to their problems while Singaporean PMETs got fallen along the wayside?

Would the termination of this CECA help in some ways towards bettering the lives of Singaporeans and their families? For now the pain and suffering of Singaporeans continue unabated.

Shanmugam has challenged Leong Mun Wai to a debate on this CECA. It is about time that this is seriously discussed in Parliament and MPs would pose as many questions as if they are asking questions about pets and dogs and climate change. For the debate to be meaningful, maybe the govt should provide some data on the employment of Indians here under CECA over the last 15 or 20 years versus the number of Singaporeans in India, the number of PMETs that have lost their jobs, retired, underemployed etc etc.  The other thing of interest would be the qualifications of the Indians, how are they vetted, what are accepted university degrees etc etc. Data on the number of Singapore companies in India versus the number of Indian companies here, how many jobs have Singapore companies created in India for Indians and how many jobs Indian companies here have created for Indians and Singaporeans.

Oh, another thing, how about some numbers on Singapore's investments in India, how much have been invested and how much have Singapore made or lost in the last decade?

PSP should take up this challenge and look at this CECA in totality, how much it benefits both countries in terms of investment and job creation. etc etc.  Singaporeans would be looking forward for an airing on this CECA that many have very strong misgivings rightfully or wrongly. Shanmugam could explain the govt's position on this, the pros and cons of this agreement in the debate to allay the fears and unhappiness of Singaporeans, especially on how much Singapore has benefitted from the agreement both in Singapore and in India.

Who is the benefactor, who is the beneficiary, who is the loser?
