Living Dangerously And Dying Happily With Covid-19 In Singapore

By changing the term Pandemic to Endemic, we can live dangerously and die happily with the Covid-19 in our midst. This is the new normal spelt out by Three Wise Men, sent by God to Singapore, to help His Son tackle the Covid-19 Pandemic easily, without sweat.

In order to illustrate to the gentiles how to live happily with Covid-19, God keeps increasing the number of infected persons everyday, from the ports of arrival to the happy night joints, and from the happy night joints to the markets, food courts and fishery port.

From just a handful to 20, to 30, to 40, to 60, to 80, to 92, to 120 and to an additional 172 cases of COVID-19 in Singapore yesterday.

Those people have picked up the cue from the Three Wise Men very quickly. They have been living it up with the Covid-19 day and night without any respite nor restrain. They are very fast learners. They are the gangho ones. They are the street-smart ones.

They are very keen to help grow the GDP for the country. They are the loyal and model citizens that the Mafias, oops I meant Ministers, can depend upon.

They helped to bring the total number of infected cases to 63,245 and counting. They definitely deserve to be awarded a medal each for their outstanding service to the nation this coming National Day.

Out of the 172 cases, there are 163 new locally transmitted COVID-19 infections. According to MOH, 106 of these are linked to the Jurong Fishery Port cluster and 19 belong to the KTV cluster. According to my common sense, all these are interlinked to one another in a huge happy family. All of them are impregnated and carrying offsprings produced by one single Type Delta Variant of the Covid-19, probably from India.

Of the 163 cases, 66 are linked to previous cases, 71 have been detected through surveillance and 26 are not traceable to any infected person. This is just a small initial demonstration of how to live with Covid-19.

Moreover, there are 9 new happily imported cases. The country from which they have come from is a closely guarded secret that the daft Singaporean public should not know. Otherwise, they may turn racist or turn amok.

4 of the 9 happily imported infected persons were detected upon arrival in Singapore. The other 5 were only detected after they have developed the symptoms of the disease, while they were already inside Singapore. This is another aspect that shows you what living with the Covid-19 is all about.

According to last night’s news, 243 cases are currently warded in hospital. Most are learning how to live dangerously with the Covid-19.

There are five cases of serious illness requiring oxygen supplementation, and one in critical condition in the intensive care unit. None amongst these six cases is fully vaccinated. They are learning to die with the Covid-19.

It is such a wonderful experience to live, to suffer and to die with the Covid-19. This Singapore model of the Three Wise Men must be recommended to the rest of the World.

The Three Wise Men must be recommended for the Nobel Peace Prize!

Covid19 - The bad news is...

Last month (24 Jun), ministers Gan Kim Yong, Lawrence Wong and Ong Ye Kung drew a new roadmap for Singaporeans to live with Covid-19. They want Singaporeans to deal with Covid-19 as part of their daily lives.

That is to say, people will go to work, travel and shop without quarantines and lockdowns, even with the coronavirus in their midst.

With enough people vaccinated, Covid-19 will be managed like other endemic diseases such as the common flu, said the three ministers, who co-chair the multi-ministry task force on Covid-19.

“The bad news is that Covid-19 may never go away. The good news is that it is possible to live normally with it in our midst,” they said. “Our next milestone will be to have at least two-thirds of our population fully vaccinated with two doses around National Day.”

Above from the correspondent and posted in TOC.

Is is a good idea to drop all restrictions and live like normal, no quarantines, no lockdowns, no masks. The US and UK are advocating this.  Since they are unable to control the virus, just jab as many as possible and try to live with the virus. Australia is a funny exception.  They have the virus quite under control and would still resort to lockdowns and restrictions to control the virus and not allowing it to spread or admit defeat and have to live with the virus. Countries that are relatively successful in curbing the spread would not want to let go and live with the virus.

So there will be two camps with two different views and thoughts on how to deal with and live with the virus. One choosing to live dangerously with the virus and another saying no way. The good news is that all the countries that have failed to control the virus would want to live dangerously with the virus.  So Singapore would have many friends like the US, UK and India to be sleeping partners.

The bad news is that countries that are successful in controlling the virus would close their doors to Singaporeans who want to live with the virus. They may ban Singaporeans and SIA from flying into their countries.

Then what? Some may want to live dangerously and some may not. The world would be divided into two camps, the everything goes camp and another camp that says, no way, stay away from us. How many would like to join Singapore to live with the virus? I can count on US, UK and India to live dangerously and happily. Just open the door wide wide, Singapore's favourite style.

The latest spread in KTVs and Jurong Fish Market is a good opportunity to live with the virus. No need to panic, no need to clamp down, just let it be and live as if nothing has happened.

What do you think?

And the bad news is, don't pray, pray with this virus. It is too unpredictable and very challenging and can be very deadly.

What A Wise Prime Minister Like Lee Kuan Yew Would Do

Deployment of Ministers: What A Wise Prime Minister Like Lee Kuan Yew Would Do If He Arises From The Dead

Our first Prime Minister, Mentor Lee Kuan Yew, during his tenure as the PM, did not even allow one particular person to hold any important appointment. Let alone a ministerial position. That person was put in a back-bencher, ordinary MP position for at least ten years. From 1988 to 2005?

Yet today, one person has been trusted so much until he has been allowed to hold two very important, sensitive and powerful ministerial positions concurrently! Not only that, he has also been allowed to hold the two positions for such a long period of time continuously, while other ministers have all been reshuffled and rotated, some even moved three or four times.

Unbelievable! Shocking! Even sickening! Someone is very sick?

It just doesn't make any sense. Something is definitely not right. What is it? Someome has been unduly influenced into submission, under duress?

For the purpose of national security and national interests, the two important, sensitive and powerful positions should never be held by one person. Period.

From common sense, having one person controlling the Attorney General's Chambers, the Judiciary and the Overall Legal System, combined with the Police Force, the police intelligence unit, CID, internal security, customs and immigration is too risky and dangerous because that one person will become too powerful. When the two ministries are combined into one hand, that hand becomes an indestructible iron hand. And the person who owns that iron hand becomes the indestructible Iron Man.

A wise Prime Minister would never allowed such a thing to happen.

A wise Prime Minister would immediately suspect something is amiss if one of his ministers even uttered, suggested or wished to be given any of the two powerful ministries. Let alone both of them.

A wise Prime Minister would rather have two separate persons, unconnected by relations or business, to head the two powerful ministries separately, for the simple reason that he can draw upon two persons for advice instead of only one, in times of need. Thereby giving him the availability and option of a second opinion, instead of one that might be faulty, inappropriate or even sinister. Therefore, detrimental to his Premiership, National Security or the Citizens' interests.

If it has already happened, the wise Prime Minister does not need to think hard and long in order to remedy the situation and put it back into proper perspective, in his personal interests and in the interests of the people, the country and the Nation!

So, think wisely and act prudently.

The Familial Ties Lane Or Backlane?

 Many Singaporeans are unaware of the strange sounding scheme devised by the Immigration officials from the Home Affairs Ministry.

Law & Home Affairs Minister K Shanmugam explained in Parliament in February this year that those allowed to enter under the scheme include those “reuniting SCs and PRs with their foreign family members or spouses-to-be who may otherwise be stranded overseas.

Under this scheme, non-residents may also seek entry to Singapore for compassionate reasons such as family bereavements.

The powerful and impressive double port-folio Minister had given an impression that such a scheme is strictly controlled, and entry is confined to only the very minimum necessary.

If the scheme applies to family members and “spouses-to-be”, and those of urgent needs, why then allowed a Vietnamese (hostess) sponsored by her "boyfriend" to enter Singapore under the Familial Ties Lane?

Enabling boyfriends (or pimps) to bring in their foreign girlfriends (or prostitues) to work in KTV nightclubs during a pandemic, when entry rules are being tightened, may be seen as an incongruous and contradictory action / policy. It certainly makes the Familial Ties Lane looks like a Backlane. Isn't it?

To our common sense, the case of a Vietnamese "girlfriend" (or prostitue) entering Singapore to work as hostess in a KTV nightclub, sponsored by her Singapore "boyfriend" (or pimp) is a clear abuse of the scheme. This has to be checked.

Does the left hand of the law (Ministry of Law) knows the right hand of law (Ministry of Home Affairs) in the implementation of this scheme?

Professor Richard Wolff - The challenge of China

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XpD0Im5d9-c

A very methodological approach to the challenge of China from a historical and economic perspective, minus the ideological and political bickering of the Cold War mentality of American politicians.

The video is 55 mins long but the main topic on the challenge of China starts at about 20 mins into the tape. The earlier part dealt with American political history and the challenges and approaches to the economic crisis faced by Roosevelt and Biden.

Professor Wolff made his discussion very clear and precise and easy to understand without the nuances and distractions of main stream American politics and looked at China as what it is and how China overcame its enormous problems of poverty and becomes an economic growth model for the rest of the world...from poverty to moderately properous, without American or western aid that came with strings attached to keep the third world recipients forever remaining in the third world.

Prof Wolff's delivery style is very powerful and captivating and refreshing.

Watch it and get some fresh air.
