The local courts and the members are still not up to the mark in delivering effective impartial decisions. These is bad for those seeking justice. Justice, especially civil matters can be very expensive. I feel the Privy Council should be reinstated as the Highest Appeal Court. The...

There are about 10 Alternative Parties in Singapore today. PPP under GMS has yet to be approved. I doubt approval can come fast. Hence PPP may not be in the fight for seats. What are the weaknesses or strengths of these Alternative Parties? How can they be further strengthened? Is there a...

My dear friends, sorry for the long delay in coming to chat and share with you on this site. Recently, I had been very busy and hence could not contribute. If anyone of you know who I am please keep it confidential as I prefer it that way. Let me complete the task that I have embarked upon...

Many a times on my return trip to Singapore, I had seen the workers off-loading the luggages from the aircraft. As the luggage moves downwards, these people would carry it and throw it violently onto a waiting cart. You can stick a thousand "FRAGILE" stickers on it.....None cares or...

Conditions in British India and China were bad and many people chose to leave their old place of abode and headed for the shores of Nanyang (Colony of Singapore). Some headed for Malaya, Sumatra, Riau, Borneo, Vietnam, Thailand and other countries. They were looking for a better place to escape...

First and foremost, I wish everyone the best in health and happiness. May you all always be in the pink of health. Your loved ones too. I came back from Paradise recently. The moment I landed and reached home, frustration crept into me. A pathetic man was narrating his story to a...

There are many so-called PAP supporters who are doing much disservice to the PAP through their die-hard support. These people and their "style for self-aggrandizement" is only rotting the base of the the PAP. The PAP leave this people as uncontrolled vultures. In the end the PAP will suffer.

Singapore was going well since the early days of David Marshall and LKY. We may have lost Christmas Islands because of a foolish Chief Minister but people threw in their support for Marshall. The riots made poor Marshall the target of ridicule and he resigned. Toh Chin Chye's PAP swept into...

It is very frustrating for people "enslaved" to MI when the service provider is NOT able to carry out it's duty towards its customers. Since morning MI has been dead and its customer line not assessable. Feel sorry for the customers who rely on their service to reach their remisiers and...

Up to the the late 60's, senior SPF officers wore khaki-long pants and jackets. The senior officers also had belts worn along their chest. The junior officers wore khaki shorts and flannel shirts. In 1969, the entire force changed to a new uniform comprising of blue long pants, long-sleeved...

The upcoming ban on drinking and sale of liquour in Little India is another policy waiting to back-fire.. The week-end gathering of foreign workers "armed with whiskey, beer and stout bottles / o cans MAY not take place in the "restricted zones" for the curfew will be in place. A brilliant...

I am shell-shocked at the manner in which the "honorable" PM of Singapore "Island" (that 60% Singaporeans still desperately wants in office to run their daily life) commented when comparing us with foreigners insofar as crime is concerned. It is a damned stupid and irresponsible statement...

The 8/13 Riot of Singapore has inadvertently opened two school of thoughts for the effectiveness of the local police officers vis-s-vis the Gurkhas Mercenary Force stationed here since the end of WW2. Our local policemen are all are Singapore citizens, well-versed with the people and are also...

The 8.12.13 Incident will go down into the history of Singapore and annals of the Singapore Police Force as an incident that could have been avoided and or properly handled. Besides creating misunderstanding between India, Bangladesh and Singapore, it would also pose a security-threat to...

Recent violent crimes committed in Malaysia should be an eye-opener for Singapore authorities. Many Malaysians (I dunno about other nationals) are employed by Certis Cisco and Aetos here. These armed guards are deployed in banks, trading houses, goldsmiths, Jurong Island and many other...

Malaysia is introducing a sort of tax similar to GST. First they copied the RZ, then the coupon parking and now the latest - GST. Due to some reasons, Malaysians discarded the beautiful Sarong-Kebaya that brought fame to Maria Menados. SIA quickly took it and it became an international...

A friend wish to buy over an Indonesian-registered boat and have it registered with MPA. What are the rules and what is required here. Please offer information so that he can get ready with what he is required to do.

Today, after a lunch I sat down at a concrete table under a void-deck and switched on my PC to assess these site. I was alone and felt so much at home. Some of our local kids were playing around and a few Ah-peks were seated not far off under some shady trees. Suddenly, a short Pinay (shorter...

NTUC, Kopitiam and others raise rentals and price of their kopi. The stalls renting from them follow suit - "LKY called it the Domino effect During the Vietnam War". Mee soup, mee rebus mee goreng stalls all follow suit loyally. Singaporeans suffer as their salaries remain stagnated as...

Stay tuned for these is is on the way. Blame it on the American Fed or Rising Currencies. But be prepared for the Big Shock..............
