it's like a page out of the newater publicity in sg. san jose and santa clara mayors demonstrated to news media that drinking recycled sai chew is safe. it is being introduced to silicon valley drinkers as the new water and savior in the face of worsening drought conditions.

this is serious thread eh. no joke please. sg will never attack if she's not provoked. even if provoked, she has adequate ambulance facilities to take cover in.

in a prolonged drought, it's just a matter of time before water thieves show up.....

I am seriously wanting war between sinkapore and neighbours; we can then see how loyal are our soldiers. Will they fight or go after the PAP government?

an inflatable rubber dinghy is all that is required for any emergency.
