COVID19 PANDEMIC - INFECTIONS AT SINGAPORE WORKERS' DORMITORIES NO END IN SIGHT
As reported by the Health Authority, there are between 200 to 400 cases on the average every day. This is not acceptable. It is taking too long to weed out infections inside the workers' dormitories. This will definitely spill over to the community once the foreign workers are allowed to leave their dormitories.
What does this mean?
Probable Answers:
1. The relevent leaders are probably taking it too easily or they still have no clue how to deal with it efficiently and effectively.
2. The Ministry for Health does not have any concrete viable plan to stamp out COVID19 infections in the foreign workers' dormitories on an urgent basis.
3. The policy could be to allow as many of the foreign workers be infected by the COVID-19 disease so as to achieve "Herd Immunity" on a large scale. If this is so, then it is not only foolhardy but also cruel and ruthless.
Whatever the reasons for the lacklustre actions, in the mean time, the workers are still being exposed continuously to infection and re-infection again and again, and are living like prisoners.
Even though many people have been reported "recovered" or "released from hospitals", their lungs and other organs could probably have been damaged beyond repair for life!
We know that only our liver can heal itself, if not badly damaged. However, all our other organs once damaged cannot repair themselves.
The damaged organs may not function in full force again and may lead to secondary causes of death in the future, unknown to the health authories or the sufferers/victims.
Therefore, it is wise not to let ourselves be infected by the Covid-19 coronavirus at all costs. Take all the necessary precautions to ensure that you stay alive in full health happily.
Never allow ourselves to be used as Guinea Pigs by any ruthless, unethical, immoral or easy-way-out policy formulated by unwise and imperfect men - politicians and scientists alike. We do so at our own peril.
May all be well and happy!
May all enjoy good health and longevity.
May all have the will to see things as they are.
May all stay in perfect equanimity!
The LOOP - July 2020.
PS. I would add a couple of comments to the above LOOP article.
The virus in Singapore are very well trained and very smart. When they knew of the impending GE, it held back its infection. The rate of 300/400 was the rate just one week before Nomination Day. When Nomination Day was announced, the infection fell to below 200. And this number remained practically the same through the 10 days before Polling Day and lasted another 2 days for the winners to celebrate. After that the virus said ok, time to return to normal infection again...and so we are now having 300/400 cases again.
We must all say a big thank you to the very clever virus we have in this island. The virus knew exactly what was expected of them, to let Singapore have a GE with little fear of high infection rate.
The second point about herd immunity. it doesn't work this way. If herd immunity is only among the foreign workers, they would not be infected, but they could still be carriers of the virus and could go around infecting the rest of the population that did not have herd immunity.

Is asking a question to clarify a perception spreading falsehood?
Dr Chee had asked the People’s Action Party’s Dr Vivian Balakrishnan if he could “categorically tell Singaporeans right now that your party has no intention of raising our population to 10 million by continuing to bring in foreigners, especially foreign PMETs, into Singapore to compete with our PMETs for jobs”.
Dr Balakrishnan responded by referring to a statement issued by the Prime Minister’s Office that day advising people not to indulge in falsehoods. He added: “Let me state for the record. We will never have 10 million. We won’t even have 6.9 million. The government doesn’t have a target for the population. What we want is a Singapore core that is demographically stable, able to reproduce ourselves, able to create opportunities and jobs for ourselves and able to stay as a cohesive whole. It is not a target and it’s certainly not 10 million and you are raising a false strawman. That is a false statement.”
The above is from www.theindependent.sg
Is asking the govt to confirm something spreading on the ground amounts to spreading falsehood? This kind of logic is what I called, contrived power logic. It is only logic when you have power behind the person using it. It would never be accepted as logic but swallowed grudgingly by the hapless.
Singaporeans have been forced to accept this kind of power logic far too often, like the 200m ruling when inside the polling centre is not within the 200m radius range. Go ask a primary school kid and he would instantly tell you it is wrong. Forcing our children to accept this as logical reasoning is making Singaporeans more stupid.
Anyone using this kind of power logic in the kopitiam would invite all kinds of vulgarities and even black eyes if one is too stubborn to insist on it.
What do you think, tiok boh? Asking to confirm yes or no is spreading falsehood? Not clarification?

The Vision of a Singapore MP - by SSO
Firstly, my vision as a PAP MP is $$$$$.
I visualise how to gain as many as 30 Director posts and make it happen. If each Directorship pays me $30,000 a year, I would get $300,000 more for 10 Directorships, and $600,000 for 20, and $900,000 for 30 Directorships. And I only need to attend one or two Board Meetings a year, basically I go there to rub shoulders, drink beer, have fun and talk cock. Easy money, no work at all.
As PAP MP, I also have the privilege of using funds allocated by the PA (People's Assassination) to me as Grasslooters Advisor for my own political advancement under the guise of improving my constituency and helping constituents. Easy money to kill two birds with one stone.
Further, as a PAP MP, I too have the honour to run the Town Council and make full use of the funds allocated to my Town Council for my personal political adventures and advancement. Easy money again. Same as above.
More, as a PAP MP, I can suka suka absent myself from Parliament sessions - which are only held 4 to 5 times a year. And I can sleep in Parliament if I am too tired because of my chasing around for more and more money for my own family's and my in-laws' families comforts and future.
And I only need to meet the people (MPS) once in two weeks, for two hours each. During these MPS, all my works are done by the slaves and running dogs. Even writing letters and posting letters to various Ministries are done by my balls-carrier side-kicks and cronies. I just sign the letters and walk around looking important.
And when General Elections come, I have NTUC charlies and RC grasslooters to help me do all the dirty works. I just go around shaking hands and put on a pretentious smile once a while for photo-shoots.
And if I have my own business firm or if I happen to work for Temasek Holdings or GIC, I would fight for more foreigners to be employed in my firm, or in Temasek or GIC. I visualise how much money can be saved by employing foreigners instead Singapore kpkb losers.
Secondly, as a PAP Minister. If I happen to be a Minister, "ho say leow"! I don't need to do any work at all. All my works are done by the civil servants. My Permanent Secretary plans and supervise everything. I don't even have to think. All my thinking are done by the scholars Think-Tank in my Ministry. Not forgetting the expensive consultants I employed too.
As PAP Minister, my vision is more $$$ - more than being just an MP. I visualise how to increase my multi-million dollars salaries and 15-month bonuses in various lucrative investments, especially in those that I have insiders information. Who is to know if I don't talk? Who is the wiser? Singapore has no whistleblower lah . Who dares?
