US NAvy says they want to based 2 warships in SIngapore, PAP says no problem, why don't u based 4 instead!!. KNN what kind of fuck prostitute govt. will open their legs wider to welcome angmo lancheow. Gay Loong must really like american sodomizing. Does anyone not undertand that if conflict ever breaks out between US and China, Singapore will be receiving several nuclear warheads from China, as the Chinese will most certainly attempt to destroy the US fleet here? We will all die over a squabbling that means nothing to us. This is a very dangerous game that the PAP is playing. Already we incur the wrath of all the muslims in the region thru our close association with the jews and the americans. Now, we incur the wrath of the Chinese, and we still want their business?
On the other hand, some good news. SPGs rejoice, now there are more angmos living here that you can hook up with and fuck off fron this godforsaken land. Congrats to you.
Singapore Willing to Host More U.S. Warships
April 6, 2012 RSS Feed Print Singapore would consider doubling the number of U.S. Navy shallow-water ships Washington plans to permanently base there, a move that would rile Asian giant China, a senior Singaporean official said.

The Navy last year announced plans to base two littoral combat ships in the tiny south Asian nation. But Singaporean leaders have told the Pentagon they would consider hosting as many as four of the ships—which are small enough to fight in shallow waters near a coastline—a senior official said.
The Singaporean official spoke on the condition of anonymity.
The decision to base the littoral ships in Singapore is part of the Obama administration's shift of U.S. foreign and security policy from the Middle East to Asia after a decade of war in Iraq and Afghanistan. The basing decision was a big win for Singapore, which will benefit economically, and a sign of its ever-closer ties to Washington.
The littoral combat ships are smaller and lighter than large vessels like aircraft carriers and destroyers and are designed primarily to do a single type of mission at a time, like locate mines or track pirates near shore.
The littoral ships have a crew of around 45 sailors; an aircraft carrier can have a crew as large as 4,600 sailors.

Washington's allies in the region welcome an enhanced U.S. naval and military footprint as a hedge against a rising China. But they also are increasingly concerned about a U.S.-Chinese conflict.
Enhancing that presence, however, "must be done in a way that minimizes frictions that would make U.S. partners more susceptible to Chinese coercion. The decision the summer of 2011 to locate two littoral combat ships in Singapore is a leading example," Patrick Cronin of the Center for a New American Security wrote in a recent report. "Whether those two ships and crews are based in Singapore or just frequently stationed there, this model of flexible presence could be pursued with other [regional] countries, including the Philippines and Vietnam."
Other naval analyst predict the American littoral combat ships will nevertheless be a target of fiery rhetoric from Beijing. But, analysts say, the much smaller footprint these vessels would bring compared to larger ships will make it hard for Beijing to accuse Washington of building a war fleet in China's backyard.
