Covid19 - From Number 1 to 39

Singapore—In April, Bloomberg declared Singapore “the world’s best place to be during Covid.”

A scant six months later, the country ranked 39th, its lowest ranking ever on Bloomberg’s Covid Resilience Ranking scale, amid record-high Covid infections and deaths....

On Bloomberg’s list Singapore is now ranked lower than South Africa, with its nearly three million Covid cases and 90,000 deaths, and whose vaccination rate is yet to reach 20 per cent.

The reasons why the island-nation rated poorly are the stringent local measures that have limited people’s mobility, the slow travel reopening and flight capacity recovery that is far less than that of the US and Europe, even though Singapore has one of the highest vaccination rates in the world.

The above is reported in theindependent.sg 

From being the safest country to be in, Singapore is now one of the highest risk country to be in, with daily infection at more than 3,000 daily as reported officially. This is the price Singapore is willing to pay to open up to allow more visitors including those from high risk countries, countries that are ranked at Level 4 according to the American CDC. Anyway what is the difference is Singapore is also ranked at Level 4? There is a saying, if one is a leper, there is no need to fear lepers anymore.

But why the huge drop from number 1 to number 39? This is like moving from first world to third world, so easily done. The reasons, did not open its leg wide enough for more lepers to come in. If this is the reason, Singapore has no problem in regaining its number 1 position. Just game the ranking system that Singapore knows best. It is like bringing in more foreign academics to replace local academics, nevermind if the local academics become jobless, as long as the ranking of Singapore universities looked good by providing more jobs for foreigners. Never mind if the graduates cannot find good jobs and and seen as untalented and unsuitable for the job market. As long as the ranking is high for the universities, that is the important consideration.

So do not be surprised that Singapore would soon be number 1 again, by opening its leg wider as needed to meet the requirements. The number of daily infection can go to 10,000, does not matter as long as the ranking is good as required. Just loosen all the restrictions on movement of people, open up the restaurants etc etc. all will be fine.

Singapore only loves to be number 1. Number 1 in opening legs wide wide for anything.

Warfare Is Based On Deception

All warfares are based on deception. Be it atomic, biological, cultural, diplomatic, economic, judicial, legal, military, political or trade war, or Covid-19 Pandemic, they are all based on deception.

In order to win any war, the antagonist must be excel in psychological warfare (psywar) and psychological operations (psyops).

Psywar and psyops are based on deception. The PAP is very skilled in both.

For the past 56 years, the PAP has been able to hold on to the power, to the seat of government and governing, because it is very good in winning the hearts and minds of the daft and meek Sinkie voters.

To win over the voters, the PAP used psywar and psyops everyday using mass medium of communication. That's why it needs to command and control all the mass media, including the Internet.

Psywar has been and is still being used against the enemies (opposition political parties and leaders).

Psyops is being used against own citizens all the time, in all these 56 years of independence. Even before 1965, before independence.

So, massaging, manipulating hiding figures, statistics and facts of inconvenience are just parts of the huge reservoir of tools and means the PAP employs. Nothing spectacular. Nothing unusual. Nothing new.

After so many years of playing the game, the cats have escaped from the bags. Sinkies should have already known the modus operandi of the PAP. It never tell the whole truth. It never admit mistakes. It never take responsibility. It is not transparent. It is not accountable to the people.

During election time, its leaders tell you they are there to serve you. They convince you that they are your servants.

After election time, the PAP leaders and their cronies lord over you. They con you and take you for granted. Treating you as mere digits. Treating you as obedient soldiers and as worker slaves to generate the GDP to grow for the benefit of the rich and powerful, for the elites, for the PAP LEECHES.

That is the Mother of all Deceptions. The Devil in disguise, in disgust.

MOM does not want to see a concentration of workers from a source or nationality

 Tan(See Leng) told reporters last Saturday that the government would examine the diversity of the workforce in sectors that need a lot of foreign workers. He said that MOM hopes not to see a concentration of workers from a certain source or nationality.

  

“From the perspective of this Covid-19 pandemic, one of the painful lessons we have learnt is that if you overly rely on one particular country, whether it is labour or for your talent, and if something happens and you get disruption, then you are going to be in a much more difficult position,” he said.

During the debate, Tan disclosed that the proportion of Indian nationals among EP holders had increased from 14% in 2005 to 25% last year. That is to say, among the 177,000 EP holders last year, one quarter came from 1 single country alone – India. He didn’t disclose similar figures for S Pass holders.

 

The above is from the correspondent and posted in TOC. What Tan See Leng said is like MOM does not want but has no choice, whatever that means, and so there is a concentration of workers from a certain source or nationality for so many decades or more than one decade. There is no choice, only India has the talent Singapore needed, other countries did not have, and so is no talent Singapore. Singaporean talents are only good to be grab driver and security guards or to deliver food. And the govt could not do anything about it, could not diversify, and still figuring how to go about it. By the time they come up with a solution, maybe another decade would have gone by and MOM would be run by a new batch of people...maybe from India.

What I find it puzzling is that the number of EP holders had increased from 14% to 25% last year. Why is this puzzling? If you turn left and turn right, or go to the central business district or go to East Coast or Chennai Business Park, all you see are foreign workers from one source or nationality. And they made up only 25%? Why is that so? If 25% is already filling everywhere, where is the 75% that could not be seen? Is it that our eyes are deceiving us or the numbers are funny? Should not we be seeing the 75% everywhere instead of the 25%? Is there a concentration of Ceca Indians in Chennai Business Park and Mumbai Financial Centre? Dunno there, no body knows. It just happen last night.

Something is not right. Who are the 75%, angmohs, pinoys or China Chinese? And together they are drowned by the 25%. Real or not?  Maybe 25% is bigger than 75%.

Would the imbeciles take a walk in Chennai Business Park and Mumbai Financial Centre, without putting on their sunglasses?

PS.  A country with no local talents. A country that badmouth its own citizens as no talents. A country that everyday bragged about how good foreign talents are even if they came from funny universities with funny or fake degrees. A country that told its graduate PMETs to retrain, to upskill as drivers, cleaners and security guards, and food delivery boys and girls. A country with no citizens, afraid to talk about citizens, only referred to them as locals or residents. Should be called a hotel instead of  state if citizens are a shame to be mentioned.

Covid-19 Is Driving World Leaders Mad

 

Devoid of ideas, ways and means on how to arrest the Covid-19 Pandemic that is going on for almost two years now, many world leaders are very desperate and panicking. They are drowning in the most strange turbulent ocean of disaster - causing havoc to the national and international economy as well as to their reputation and competency, to their stature and political careers. Under such prolonged conditions, some of them, if not all, are going bonkers.

Many of them are simply following the leader. The blind following the blind. Whoever is blinded first is the leader. The rest are the followers - the Fellowship of Blinds is formed naturally and voluntary, without the need to motivate and organise.

In the meantime, some cunning and unscrupulous big scammers are reaping huge profits, both monetary and fame. By the tune of US$53 Billions this year and a projected US$93 Billions in 2022, they happily and openly boasted. Windfall of the Century! Heaven-sent or deliberate heinously created opportunity of evil people, no one is the wiser.

No investigation led by preconceived, bias, corrupted minds, a mix of scientific and political hags, is going to discover the origin of the A,B,C,D,E Variants of the Contagious and Deadly Coronavirus (CDC) - with an acronym same as the CDC of USA, a highly political and politicised entity that is exerting its presence felt throughout the World of incompetent leaders grasping at last straws. Even the Israelis, the best brains on Earth, are not spared.

At the rate this madness is going on and on, as long as the abnormal, stealthy and invisible Coronaviruses are uncontrolled and uncontrollable, the Global Vaccination Program is going to become the Mockery of the Centuries. No politicians dare to admit. No leaders even dare to make a squeak. Perhaps some do, in private with their wives, in bed.

As long as one country is not safe, all countries are not safe.

As long as one country is spreading the viruses continuously to the rest of the world - a world that cannot do without trade and interactions, commerce and communications, banking and finance, travels and adventures, eating and banging - no corner of the world will be safe. All earthlings will be infected one way or another.

This may be divine intervention or human-created to restart the broken system of reform of an over-populated Earth, a deeply corrupted evil human world of greed, power-hunger, injustice, devious-plots and heinous deeds.

Vaccinated or not, all are going to be infected, sooner or later.

Some will fall sick and recover.

Some will fall sick and die.

Some will not fall sick but not die, especially the children.

Some will not fall sick and will not die immediately but may die in the not too distant future - dying of organs failure or heart-attacks, strokes or heartbroken because of loss of loved ones, or commit suicide because of loss of sole breadwinners and benefactors.

The toll will be great. The burden heavy. The costs immeasurable. The responsibility unavoidable. The leaders are going mad under immense pressure to perform and out-perform. This is the price of having incompetent leaders masquerading as world-best talents who are God's gift to Mankind.

God only helps those who help themselves!

Irony of ironies.

Covid19 - Singapore on the way to herd immunity

 Wednesday's 5,324 cases of  infection is good news for Singapore. If the number were to include those infected but not reported and staying home to recover, the total number of infection could be much more. Assuming that the total daily infection is 10,000, in 10 days it would be 100,000 and in 100 days it would be 1m. 

At this rate of infection, Singapore could be 100% infected very soon. The faster the rate of infection, the faster would all Singaporeans be infected, meaning Singapore would attain full herd immunity naturally, without any more need for vaccination or unending booster shots. Is this not what Singapore is trying to achieve?

Singaporeans thus must pray that more are infected and full herd immunity be achieved earlier. When this happens, there will be no more need for all the clumsy restrictive measures.  Singapore can then simply open up and live with the virus as a common cold.

Life will be normal, no need to wear mask, dine everywhere, party everywhere, no tedious processess of testings and VTLs.  Everyone is welcome, business as usual.

Well done MTF, well done Singapore for being the first to achieving full herd immunity and doing away with all the vaccines and unecessary encumbrance of the Pandemic.

What do you think?
