actually this one I am on the govt side. this news has a hidden msg to malaysia and its citizen over panic buying. most importantly is actually to the malaysia side. I am quite surprised none of you pick it up.
few months ago before Singapore implement circuit breaker measures, when Covid19 hit Malaysia hard, the first thing Malaysia did was to cut egg supply to Singapore (even though their supplier insist they had more than enough). end up livelihood of the farmers got screw up, they beg the govt not to screw their income with petty politics with Singapore. Then our egg supply resume. Egg is one of the most vital food supply that is an key ingredient in many of the stuff we eat. At that very critical moment, Malaysia use that to threaten us, this is the exact thing with the water issue. its the same old game but instead of water, a key vital food ingredient; eggs.
So what you think is the real intention here purposely showing that we now have over 250 000 eggs in excess, so much so we have to throw it away? Now the bargaining power for price shifted almost immediately when this news is out.
The message of Singapore govt to Malaysia is this, you want to fuck with us, we will surely fuck you back. Now we are the old holding the bargaining power for the price of it. Don't fucking threatened us because we are a little red dot. Why do you guys think in our highly controlled media such news is out at the midst of a pandemic? wastage is also a sign also that we have more than enough.
