Covid19 measures - Is Singapore becoming a police state?

 

SINGAPORE: Food and beverage establishments should conduct checks for proof of residence when groups larger than two people dine in, with such checks done through the patrons' NRIC or the Singpass app, said the authorities.

Children who do not have these forms of identification can be allowed entry based on a "declaration" of their place of residence.

The advisory was issued on Wednesday (Nov 10), the first day that fully vaccinated people from the same household can dine out together in groups of up to five.

Implementation of the rule was detailed in a joint advisory issued by Enterprise Singapore, the Housing and Development Board, the Singapore Food Agency, the Singapore Tourism Board and the Urban Redevelopment Authority....

"Strict enforcement actions will be taken against anyone who pretends to be from the same household as well as F&B establishments that do not implement the necessary checks," said the authorities.

Individuals will be fined while F&B establishments will be subject to immediate closures. The penalties will apply even for first-time offenders, they added....

"Emphatic toasting with food or drinks by workers and customers is also disallowed," said the authorities.   CNA

With these kinds of stupidity, how far is Singapore from becoming a police state? No they cannot tell the difference. They keep tightening the noose and never think that it can kill, like boiling the frog. Every little increment is nothing, like transport fares, only a few cents increase, no pain or not painful.

With the imbeciles in charge, anything goes.

Why Must This Be Happening To Singapore Prison Inmates? Who Is Responsible?

 

The Singapore Prison Service (SPS) proudly announced on Thursday (Nov 11) that more than 200 people in the prisons were infected with Covid-19.

It is very happy to add that the number included people across all prison facilities, including death row inmates and staff members, and that those infected were in different stages of recovery, with three being hospitalised.

SPS boasted that, as of Wednesday, the count comprised 169 inmates, 54 supervisees and nine staff members. Supervisees are inmates who are at the tail-end of their sentences working in the community in jobs such as those in the logistics, cleaning, and food and beverage sectors.

Boeing 737 Max Renamed 737-8 To Hookwink Customers/Passengers?

 


"In September this year, the CAAS said it had lifted the suspension on the 737 Max flying in and out of Singapore after evaluating design changes to the aircraft as well as its safety record over the past nine months and finding "no notable safety issues".


"On Tuesday, the airline said it had invested about S$230 million on the development, design and installation of "new industry-leading cabin products" for the 737-8."


SIA has only spent money (S$230 million) on the aircraft's cabin, not the aircraft's safety issues.

Neither does changing to name 737-Max to 737-8 enhance the safety of the aircraft. Such a move may confuse and mislead the customers into thinking and believing that its a new model of the 737 Series.

The main issue is that the overall design of the entire aircraft is faulty. Therefore, no matter what one does with the design of the interior of the aircraft, and how much time, money and efforts one has spent on the now proven-unsafe 737 Max, it does not remedy the main faulty features (manufacturer's faults) that have affected it's safety tremendously.

The CAAS has taken a great risk to announce that it has found "no notable safety issues". It would be prudent to make sure that the manufacturer (Boeing) declare that all the safety issues of the 737 Max have been solved and that the aircraft is safe to fly again.

Obviously, there are still safely issues regarding the design of the engines and fuel tanks, the design of the wings and the design of the aircraft's body. All these three safety issues have not been solved. All these three combined together makes the aircraft dangerously unsafe.

The talks about software problems are all red herrings, and seeing the trees but missed the wood.

The fact remains that the same safety issues that have caused the two crashes that killed all their passengers and crews on board, have not been solved yet. Why?

Simply because they cannot be solved!

As such, the 737 Max aircraft must be put out of operation/service and sent to the junk yard.

Please don't play with other people's lives.

As it is, Covid-19 has already claimed nearly a million lives. The least the world wants is to add more preventable deaths to the list of unnecessary casualties.

Covid-19 Singapore: Poor Performance Should Not Be Entitled To Any Annual Bonus

Japan, with a population of 125 million people, without counting the foreigners in the country, has been reporting average of less than 50 Covid-19 infections per day for the last 30 days.

On the other hand, Singapore, with a population of only 5.6 million, including foreigners, has been reporting an average of 3,000 Covid-19 infections per day for the last 30 days.

While Japan is a big country, Singapore is only a small city.

While Japan is run by leaders paid less than the mediocre SG$500,000 annually, Singapore is run by leaders who shamelessly and very loudly claimed themselves to be outstanding and demanding to be paid the world's highest and most obscene salaries of multiple $millions annually, plus bonuses sometimes many times more than their annual salaries.

From these facts, Singaporeans should have realised that they have been taken for a ride for a very long journey, for a very long time.

Singaporeans should now realise that they have duds, masquerading as outstanding talents, running their city state. Those duds don't even deserve 10% of their present exorbitantly obscene salaries.

On top of that, their poor performances should not entitle them any annual bonus at all.

May justice and fairness reign!

Biden Xi virtual meeting - China must not allow the Americans to set the agenda

 Biden is begging for a meeting with Xi, even a virtual meeting would be good enough for him. He needs the publicity and to show to the Americans that he is worthy enough to have a meeting with Xi. Without this meeting his legitimacy as a world leader is at stake.

What is unacceptable is the agenda that the American media and the White House staff have been making publicly, that Biden would be talking to Xi about human rights in Xinjiang, Hong Kong and on issues of Taiwan and South China Sea. These are China's domestic affairs and China must not allow the Americans to mess around with. China must not, I repeat, must not allow any country that wants to meet up with Chinese leaders to talk about such issues. There shall be no meeting as it would be a waste of time talking about unproductive issues and meddling with China's domestic affairs.

China must set the agenda for any meetings with foreign leaders especially the Americans and the West. China's domestic affairs must not be in the agenda or else no meeting. China must be very firm in these areas as the other side did not mean any good. Their intention is mischievous and unfriendly and should not be entertained. They can go and fly kite

China must make these issues taboo, red lines not to be crossed. Send the visitors packing, show them the door for being rude and interfering in China's domestic affairs. China must make this as the first pass to a meeting with Chinese leaders. When such issues are raised, meaning very unfriendly act, China must walk out of the meeting, any meeting. No need to waste time talking to gangsters and hooligans out to create mischief. Period.
