[h=2]Netizen urges oppo MPs to raise these Qs in Parliament[/h]

Parliament
I’ve sent the following questions to opposition MPs hoping that they will
raise some of these hot button issues in Parliament. I hope they can get the
govt to answer these questions. The next session of parliament will be held next
Tuesday, 12/05/2015.
To MHA:
1: WHAT is taking so long for the police to solve the following cases?
J/20111117/2218: case of sedition for posting image with caption offensive to
Muslims, report made against Mr. Jason Neo. Case still unresolved after 3.5
years.
E/20121211/2119: case of death threats made against Singaporeans, report made
against Mr. Topher Yakuza. Case still unresolved after 2.5 years.
E/20150211/7007: case of sedition for posting comments offensive to ethnic
Chinese, particularly Buddhists and Taoists, report made against Mr. Neill
Graham. Case still unresolved after 3 months.
D/20150402/7009: case of threats of physical violence and sexual abuse made
against Mr. Amos Yee, report made against Mr. Jason Tan Kok Whee. Case still
unresolved after 1 month.
(I have attached copies of the police reports as evidence)
2: In view of the terrorist threats that Ed Mundsel Bello Ello made against
Singaporeans and Singapore, WHY was he only charged under lesser charges of
sedition and not the far more severe charge of subversion, and WHY wasn’t the
ISA used against him given the severity of his threats?
Doesn’t the failure to use the ISA against Edz Ello when he made terrorist
threats against the country PROVE that the ISA is worthless and should be
abolished immediately?
3: In view of the revelation that Ms. Nisha Padmanabhan of the IDA has an MBA
while “Dr.” Marc Jonet has a Masters Degree & a Ph. D from known degree
mills, WHAT measures are the ICA taking to ensure that permanent residencies and
citizenship are awarded ONLY to people with bona fide qualifications, NOT fake
ones?
To MinLaw:
1: WHY was lawyer Alvin Yeo’s case classified as “over-billing” and not
“overcharging”? WHAT exactly are the differences between them apart from being a
case of mere semantics? (Alvin Yeo is currently a PAP MP).
To MOM, MOE, MOF, NTUC:
1: In view of the revelations
that Ms. Nisha Padmanabhan of the IDA has an MBA while “Dr.” Marc Jonet has a
Masters Degree & a Ph. D from known degree mills while “Dr.” Anup Shankar,
formerly of NUS is NOT a qualified medical doctor at all, WHAT measures are the
government taking to ensure that ONLY foreigners who GRADUATED from PROPERLY
ACCREDITED universities receive gainful employment here, particularly in the
PMET sectors?
Moreover, considering that “Dr.” Shankar was teaching medicine in NUS when
he’s not a qualified medical doctor, how will this affect the status of his
former pupils since they were taught by somebody unqualified to teach them?
2: If restoring the status of Thaipusam as a public holiday will cause major
negative impacts in productivity and GDP growth, then WHY is the government
considering gazetting a “Founder’s Day” in honor of Mr. Lee Kuan Yew when this
will ALSO cause the SAME major negative impacts in productivity and GDP
growth?
To MOT:
1: SMRT Ltd and SBS Transit are still giving mediocre performances as PTOs,
especially SMRT Ltd. Despite this, they keep raising transport fares while
earning healthy profits. WHY are they allowed to do this?
If it is because as former PTC Chairman Gerard Ee says that they must earn a
level of profit that they are comfortable with before they can focus on
resolving issues, then shouldn’t the PTOs be nationalized since the
privatization policy has clearly FAILED to improve service quality or
productivity but has instead encouraged profiteering and greed?
2: WHAT measures are the government taking to recover the loss of half a
billion dollars from Alpine Bau GmBH (Singapore branch) in view of their
insolvency and failure to complete the 2 MRT stations they were contracted to
construct?
To Opposition MPs:
As the elected representatives of the people mandated to provide check and
balance on the government, please raise these issues and keep pressing the
government for answers as many Singaporeans are getting tired of our Govt
evading questions and practising double standards.
If you guys are not willing to check on them, perhaps you guys should stand
aside and retire. Let others who are more willing to question the government to
run for the next election and get into the Parliament.
Don’t waste our time!
Thanks & best regards.
