Luckily you are not one of the man in blue. One shot fired and killed another Indian, it will not be a 400 strong mob that they will have to deal with.

I sincerely and honestly believe that our security forces did the right thing. They exercised great restraint and they did not use any firearms or any unnecessary force to provoke more rioting and more accidents.

The mob was almost uncontrollable and the rioters were running amok and beserk. If firearms were used and if some of the rioters were shot dead, things would be worse. Our security forces did the right thing and they should be applauded for keeping the situation under control.

In fact , some of the Indians themselves were trying to stop their fellow men from causing more damages and destruction. They themselves were trying to stop their own people from causing more harm and more rioting. These good Samaritans should be applauded for their courage to stop their own people from causing more damages.

At the end of the day, Singaporeans should learn from this Little India's Riot and I hope our enlightened Government will do something NOW to stop future problems and riots. There must be a total reappraisal of the situation and the problems associated with massive influx of foreign workers should be quickly and effectively addressed before things get worse.

I am sure our Government will do the necessary to prevent further such incidents and to safeguard the interests of Singaporeans. This is an event waiting to happen .I have driven in that area before and many of our forummers have voiced our concern, It is no surprise that the riot had happened - all the conditions were there .All it needed was an excuse to explode in all its ugly gory.

Hope we all learn from this incident.

On a little street in Little India, they can not protect us or the country from outsiders...what can you expect them to do? Please...! this a wake up call to the government not to be complacent & a big wake up call for the people of SINgapore to examine the government we have!!.

This is for our future & our children future....no point of saying, we have restrain, we have this, we have that...WHAT IF THE RIOTS were started by organization outside SINgapore..who is hell bent in destruction??

Our response to this riot is DISMAL...ok! the SPF did their job...was this sufficient, efficient?? we are talking things too easy.. if this was an political party holding a rally..wanna bet, what will turn up ASAP!...before you can, say "WHEN".

Your stinky statement can be summarized by "it's an honest mistakes, let's move on ".
Do we pay a govt to learn or to work ?

I thin they should have shoot into the sky to scare them .

Their TAURUS model85 is only a five shot revolver, waste 1 bullet in the sky means only 4 left to use on riot if they charge forward. Anyway what use are 5 bullets against a 400 crowd/riot. Even with a fast reload, it would still be a futile exercise.

The fact that 2 police cars were overturned/ burnt indicates that the policemen from the initial 5 cars that arrived did not stand their ground and probably ran away for dear life- self preservation instinct.

The police first arrivals were not even dressedin riot body armour to handle the situation.

It was the arrival of FOREIGN TALENT Gurkhas contigent that quelled the RIOT.

TEAR-GAS, water cannons are the tools to use against riots.
