Any Opposition Bastards Hurt By LED Ballon From SG50 Pack?

[JohnTan]

A whatsapp message warning Singaporean parents about the dangers of a LED balloon from the SG50 goodie bag has gone viral on cyberspace. The message allegedly from an RC member warns that when the LED balloon is overblown, dangerous pellets will fly out of the exploding balloon and these projectiles may cause serious injuries to the face and eyes.

The message advised parents to take special care especially when young children are playing with the toy.

After All Singapore Stuff shared the viral whatsapp message, others parents have stepped forward and reflected the same experience with the balloon. This was what some of them said:

Tan Andrew Eng Chuan: "Yap. True. Last night, blew it and boom. Things fly out. Not safe."

Albert Chan: "Yes its true. My boy came to me with a few jglass beads"

Jaja Riyan Nazz: "Yes its true. I blow and the palets blew off."

Other worried parents suggested that the authorities stop distributing this dangerous toy and advised other parents to stop their children from playing with this potentially hazardous toy.

It is unclear if the authorities will address the concerns reflected by Singaporean parents. To be safe, parents should pay careful attention and take precaution to prevent unnecessary injury to their child.

See how evil the PAP is ...it wants to injure or kill Opposition supporters with this ballon but totally ignore the collateral damage to other sinkees.

All sinkees should punch their PAP MPs on the face and vote them out in the GE.

letter said must take photo with them, i dont want to.

Some people are very hiao attention whores, they love having photos taken of themselves, especially when taken with public figures.

Some touristy locations or certain events take photos of the guests then display the photos for sale. Those hiao attention whores love it.

 

[frenchbriefs]

since when do pioneer sinkies in the 1960s have led balloons?i thought led was not widespread until 90s.

 

[eatshitndie]

booby trap. time for a total recall like ikea did on their cabinets.

 

[Microsoft]

recall...dun rtn...worth a lot of moni 30 yrs frm now...folks at eBay will be willing to pay for the lengendary dangerous gift of sg50...

 

[songsongjurong]

another UMNo styled corruption, (knowingly?!u bet!) bought defective,dangerous,overpriced shitty product capable of maiming sinkies ,have you visit A&E,pay jacked up medical bills. Total hospital bills incurred by sinkies will help LHL recover partial reluctant SG50 gifts.

PAP : "Everything has a price.Ultimately,someone is paying for it."

I've cancelled my order. I don't want to put my dog at risk of injury.

Aiyah, PAP is not evil. they are kind hearted. Originally, Ministers want to put poison dart in the balloon but downgraded to LED pellets. So be happy, ok?

Straits Times say:

LED balloon device in NDP funpacks "safe for use": NDP organisers

http://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/led-balloon-device-in-ndp-funpacks-safe-for-use-ndp-organisers

Are the LED balloon maracas in the National Day funpacks safe for use, or will they explode and cause injury?

A WhatsApp message has been making the rounds, warning Singaporeans about the balloon maracas, a musical instrument that contains beads and makes rattling noises, saying that these could explode and cause injuries to the eyes or face.

But National Day Parade organisers have deflated such claims and said that the balloon LED maracas are safe for use.



In a Facebook post uploaded on Thursday at 9.15pm, the National Day Parade (NDP) Executive Committee said it was aware of the messages and added: "The manufacturer assures (us) that the balloon maracas have gone through careful testing for quality control and is safe for use.

"Notwithstanding, we urge users to use the LED balloon maracas in accordance to the instructions on the packaging and avoid overinflating the balloon."


Some Singaporeans had received WhatsApp messages from Thursday morning, saying that the LED balloon can explode and send small pellets flying.

"If it explodes, pellets flying out of the balloon can cause serious injuries to the eyes or face. Pls let your friends with small kids know of this danger," said the WhatsApp message. It is unclear where the message originated from or if anyone has been hurt.

A video showing how to dismantle the LED balloon maracas accompanied the Facebook post by the NDP Executive Committee. In the video, a man explains that the maracas sound is made by "silver beads" inside the balloon.

"Though (the balloon) is easily inflated, it will not burst unless inflated excessively," said the demonstrator, as he goes on to show what the maracas should look like when inflated.

Because they also talk bad about our good PAP, and try to sow discord between "husband and wife". Minister Ng Eng Hen once likened sinkies and PAP to "old husband-and-wife" type of relationship.

Absolutely correct. Husband cheats wife of all her savings and those of her family promising to repay by a certain date but date always changes. Husband screw outside, supports several mistresses and their respective families but only give wife just enough to buy food from market not restaurants. Husband no responsibility, screw without condom and pass on STD to wife. Not once but many, many times and refuses to pay for wife's medical fees. The list goes on ........................
