Believe me, Singaporeans have been bending themselves backwards to accommodate the foreigners, but when the government carries on shafting more and more of them into our throats, we kind of like want to vomit.

u haf digressed 2 much in many posts ... kindly bring ur mundane topic elsewhere n let tis thread continue wif iz original topic ...
Xenophobic is a overstatement, my apologies , look here , if for example if we start clearing our own food trays and start being a little more society conscious , this little movement would definitely have an effect. I am not condoning on the bad habits but we have come a long way by being tolerant , if not our little home would not have survive this long.
For the foreigners yeah we have our frustrations , but without them we are also at our wits. Yes our government have undermine the ramification of admitting more foreign residents, but we can't just rant and demand our government to undo this, we have a dilemma
yes these are trying times , too bad our little island has become a magnet for foreigners , but do we go back to the intolerant past ?
I do admit there are tensions beneath the surface, and all it take is a spark to ignite, then I would be very afraid. Well enough of extolling , I am needed for my duties as a testosterone driven mate. Been nice posting and exchanging opinions , take care bonne nuit.
you remind me of woody's phrase: there's no such thing as total happiness. only net happiness
We should call the ministers traitors ...yes, they have sold out sinkapore to India and China.

Police appeal to public for information on Little India riot
SINGAPORE: Police are appealing for information from the public about the riot which broke out at Little India on Sunday night.
Members of the public are also urged to refer to the police website for accurate updates.
A police spokesperson said that a report carried by India's Sun TV earlier this week had made claims that were "baseless, misleading and irresponsible".
Deputy Superintendent Julius Lim, head of operations and training at Tanglin Police Division, said: "The uncomfortable reality is that in an incident like this, there will be a lot of mistruths and information that are unverified that will be broadcast online, and they will spread.
“Our message to the public will be to refer to the Singapore Police Force website for factual updates, and for anyone with information to come forward, step forward to give the police information.
“You can call 999. But also for those who are directly involved in the riot, we urge you to surrender yourself and come forward as well to assist us with investigations."
Channel NewsAsia understands no further arrests were made on Wednesday.
But around 4am on Wednesday, three migrant workers were picked up at Yishun Dam and brought to the Central Police Station for questioning. - CNA/nd
A super qualified one has spoken up.....
It’s a ‘who dares wins situation’: ex-Singapore riot police officer

Whenever Roy Steven Danker was on standby as a riot police man in Singapore back in the 1960s, he would sleep in his boots waiting for the emergency bell to ring.
Doing so was a small discomfort for him because when riots were raging – and they frequently did at that time – riot squad officers sometimes had to go 72 hours without getting a wink.
Danker, now 68 years old, more than 40 years on from his time serving as a senior police officer in the then-named Riot Squad's Red Scorpions (Alpha Troops), still remembers spending full days running from place to place, armed with a wicket shield, a revolver, a baton and either a rifle or a gas grenade launcher, as he cordoned and rounded up rioters with nylon string.
"In those days, one person would arrest three to four people, and we had to use tear gas, while wearing respirator masks. That would send them haywire," he told Yahoo Singapore in a phone interview from Batam, Indonesia, where he now lives.
He said he faced "anywhere between 30 and 50" episodes of rioting and unrest in the roughly eight years he served (between 1964 and 1971) with the riot squad. Having lost around 10 of his good friends in the line of duty and himself having had numerous close brushes with death, the incidents then have burnt themselves into his memory.
Of these, he dealt with slightly fewer than 10 larger-scale riots, including the 1964 and 1969 racial riots, as well as what he calls the "Chinese school riots" around the middle of that decade.
He recalls one particular day when students took to Singapore's old District Court building at Empress Place, near Pickering Street, and he was among the first responders to the riot that started there.
"We were told that these are schoolchildren, do not use force on them," he said, adding that they were told to leave their sidearms and rifles inside the command vehicle that accompanied them. "There were a lot of girls, who took ground fresh chili and threw it at our faces… we were blinded, and then the boys took over, whacking us with sticks and poles. Thank God we had our helmets on," he added.
That day, he says he personally sustained injuries to his knees, back, spine and shoulders, while others were warded in hospital. He was fortunate enough to escape without any broken bones, but many of his colleagues, upon release, went right back to the streets and into the thick of the action.
"We didn't like staying in hospital or being out of action for long, really," he said. "Even if the doctor offered us one or two days' MC, we'd just take the medicine and go!"
When not dealing with an actual riot, Danker said the riot squad officers also did coastal patrolling and traffic policing.
"We did practically everything in those days," he said. "We were really the backbone of the Singapore police force."
Asked for his views on Sunday's riot in Little India, where about 400 South Asian workers mobbed a bus that ran over and killed an Indian national, Danker said he was shocked that so many police and emergency vehicles were damaged and burnt.
"I don't know what the procedure is now but our jobs were to protect lives and public property… we would have guarded the vehicles at all costs," he said. "Back then, we had lorry guards whose job it was to protect our command vehicles — when there was a threat (to the vehicles), they would sound a signal that would recall all of us to form up around the vehicles with our shields. We wouldn't have let that (the damage of police and emergency vehicles) happen."
That said, he hopes Singapore's current special operations command forces will learn from this and improve their approach should their services be required again in the future.
"It's a 'who dares wins' situation," he said. "If they ran forward with their shields and tear gas, they would have easily been able to throw them (the rioters) haywire, and prevent things from spiralling so far out of control."

Those newly installed security cameras better have some infra red or night vision capability, otherwise there will be another 'appeal for information' when the next riot happens.
Better install those that can see thru clothing so as to detect bombs strapped onto bodies. The ones like Sony used to have night vision filter in their handycams many years back.
The problem is with the SPF top brass ...they didn't allow the first responders to use their firearms for warning shots to prevent deterioration of the situation. You would think these scholars would use their brains ...they could have called in choppers to scare the hell out of the crowd. Nope, nothing was done.
Each of these scholars cost us $68 million over their lifetime ...shows that our scholar system is a waste of our money.
