George Yeo: "We should draw strength from Hwei Yen's sacrifice."????

[theblackhole]

fight the scourge of terrorism? pls lah..tolong tolong tolong....please say no more...okay or not..i'm shitting in my pants man!

 

[eeoror88]

Totally and overly exaggerated ....

 

[Einfield]

Let's be frank. Ms Lo happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. It tragic and unfortunate but then how many Singaporeans die of natural death, accident or commit suicide daily?

According to past years statistics, if they are not lying, it's average 1 suicide per day. 350-400 per year.

 

[2lanu]

For us in Singapore, we should draw strength from Hwei-Yen's sacrifice.

Since when did she really sacrifice? Given a choice, of course she will not be there.

We will never know why the Lord called her back so early. But in our grief, we should renew our determination to fight the terrorist scourge and always cherish our racial and religious harmony.

He can go ask Lord himself and let us know.

I will respect him, if he send in special forces and blow up this Pakistan base terrorist camp and return home without anyone knowing what hit them.

 

[jesus]

Exactly.

 

[oli9]

Firstly, may God rest her soul.

before this Mumbai incident, who is Lo hwei yen? to be precise, she's a nobody. Just a salaried lawyer. And SM Goh attended her wedding (& now her funeral). In fact, SM Goh knew the father of her husband, not her personally.
And she's being elevated to martyr status?????? Of coz we're all shocked that one of our own has been murdered by this terrorists. But c'mon, why is she so special? Look at the headlines, the penning of consoling words, alamak!!!!!
Are all these a diversion from our REAL problems faced by Sporeans? Sporeans die everyday. Be it accident, suicide, or plain murder. The thing is, all DIED!!!! So why is she so special that deserves so much limelight?

 

[jesus]

So why is she so special that deserves so much limelight?

Perhaps they consider her an elite?

 

[wayangbaobao]

wayang geroge know the word sacrifice? sacrifice involve choice of action. she got any choice to not sacrifice?

 

[0939]

Don't you feel anything for her. She died for our country. Because some big mouth ministers talked big. We are a small country of peaceful people. Our highest paid ministers think highly of themselves without realising we cannot handle terrorist attack.
We are such a vunerable country, Why should we be telling another big country like India what to do. And it is not the first time. Singapore like to talk big, show off and busy body. Do we need F15.
Keep your big mouth shut and don't bother with other countries. They will understand that we are just a small fcuk.

 

[theblackhole]

i agree with 0939....

better be humble and stay low profile and stop playing the pawn and proxy game of these global giants...

talk big we all suffer...the ordinary folks will suffer.

talk big some more..more will suffer. i shitting everytime mfa issues statements...damned scary ones....if sway sway the wrong statement at the wrong time...tragedies strike!..

i just don't undertand why the rush to issue international statements supporting this and condemning this and so on...what we know about the conflict? do we really understand the complexities of the conflict....why people turn terrorists? why groups turn terrorists?....do we really understand these people and their agendas?

so tolong tolong tolong pls don't anyhow open mouths okay. is shit bricks man!

 

[SIFU]

Don't you feel anything for her. no i don't

She died for our country. huh?? lim bo shen died for our country i understand.. she??

Because some big mouth ministers talked big. i agree

 

[Merl Haggard]

hahahaha... y m i not surprised?

especially so, after the many pages of newspaper that her article had been splashed all over with;

with references to her wedding being attended by GCT + some grassroots connection + multi-racial hint, blah blah blah.

condolences to u ms. ho.
i sincerely hope that you rest well wherever you are.

however, i hope all that coverage was not because you were the first singaporean to be killed by a terrorist - it would be an insult to you as a human being, like anyone else.

on the side, i too, wonder why the poor private / ns-men who gave their lives in service of the nation had not receive similar level of coverage in the newspaper / news.

blatant exhibition of hypocrisy at its best here.

The news coverage is so ridiculously extensive just because her keling-kia father-in-law was a PAPPY running dog for Woody Goh. He was the CCC chairman of Woody's Marine Parade constituency.

Such overdrive media coverage should have been extended to our hero the late JBJ.

 

[Mighty Megatron]

Again where is the "sacrifice"? Wrong place, wrong time, bad luck, yes...but "sacrifice", I don't think so.

Might as well say "martyred" for Singapore's enconomy. Think he needs to check what sacrifice means.

 

[Mighty Megatron]

Don't you feel anything for her. She died for our country.

She died but not for our country let's get this straight.

Her funeral will definitely be reported on the front headline page of the Shit Times.

Totally agreed. Ask any Sporean whether do they know who is JBJ. Maybe not personally but at least theyve heard of his name before. So who is this Miss Lo prior before this Mumbai incident? Nobody what.
Why is the media playing up the hype? Did she do anything courageously except being held hostage? Nothing what...so why so much coverage? Nothing else to report ah?

 

[Sideswipe]

we are a country where a NS recruit die during physical exercise for no reason can also has a military funeral and the honor of the Singapore flag over the coffin.

The Singapore flag is cheap. end.
