Re: Indonesia says only a heavy downpour can help SG, so pray
Probably after our "NEA Chief" got arrowed to fly over for his 1st round of negotiation, there's an agreement struck for a 1st installment of payment.
So .... Indo Chief ordered for 1st round of cloud seeding. It rains a little bit and that's why you see the PSI drops from 400 back to less than 200 now.
Indo chief now waiting for 2nd installment of payment before they can execute a heavy downpour.

Pollution levels reached a new record high for a third day in a row in Singapore, as smoky haze from fires in Indonesia shrouded the city state.
The Pollutant Standards Index (PSI) hit 401 at 12:00 on Friday (04:00 GMT) - the highest in the country's history.
The haze is also affecting Malaysia, with another 100 schools closed in the south of the country.
Indonesia has prepared helicopters and cloud seeding equipment to try to tackle the fires.
Singaporean Prime Minister Lee Hsieng Loong warned on Thursday that the haze could remain in place for weeks.
"We can't tell how this problem is going to develop because it depends on the burning, it depends on the weather, it depends on the wind," he said.
"It can easily last for several weeks and quite possibly it could last longer until the dry season ends in Sumatra which may be September or October."
'Life threatening'
A PSI reading above 300 is defined as "hazardous", while Singapore government guidelines say a PSI reading of above 400 over 24 hours "may be life threatening to ill and elderly persons".
The PSI dropped back down to 245 at 14:00 (06:00 GMT), although this is still in the "very unhealthy" range.
Before this week's episode, the previous air pollution record was from September 1997 during the 1997-1998 South East Asian Haze, when the PSI peaked at 226.
Singapore resident Nicole Wu told the BBC that she had stayed indoors for the past two days.
"I can't even see what's happening outside my house due to the smog. You can't see birds [or] moving objects," she added.
Philip Koh, a doctor, told AFP news agency that the number of medical consultations he had had in the past week had increased by 20%.
"My patients are telling me they are worried about how long this is going to last and how much higher this is going to go," he said.
Diplomatic strain
Singapore's National Environment Agency has started providing hourly PSI updates on its website, in addition to the three-hourly updates it previously provided.
Around 300 schools in southern Malaysia have now been closed as a result of the smog. Schools in Singapore are currently closed for the holidays.
Air traffic controllers have been told to exercise caution given the poor visibility
There are also reports of flight delays in both Singapore's Changi airport and Riau province in Indonesia.
The fires are caused by illegal slash-and-burn land clearance in Sumatra, to the west of Singapore.
The smog has strained diplomatic relations between Singapore and Indonesia - two countries that usually share good relations, the BBC's Karishma Vaswani in Jakarta reports.
Mr Lee said Singapore had provided satellite date to Indonesia to help it identify companies involved and said that if any Singapore firms were involved, that would be addressed.
Indonesia's National Disaster Management Agency said it would deploy two helicopters to conduct "water-bombing" operations, as well as planes with cloud seeding equipment.
More than 100 Indonesian firefighters are attempting to put out the fires in Sumatra.

We have been fighting fires 24 hours a day for two weeks”
Ahmad Saerozi
Natural resources conservation agency
However, an official in Riau province, where the fires are focused, said they were "overwhelmed and in a state of emergency".
"We have been fighting fires 24 hours a day for two weeks," Ahmad Saerozi, the head of the natural resources conservation agency in Riau, told AFP news agency.
He added that the fires were in peat around three or four metres below the ground, making it particularly hard to fight them.
"It is still burning under the surface so we have to stick a hose into the peat to douse the fire," he said.
"We take one to two hours to clear a hectare, and by then another fire has started elsewhere."
Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono said "all the country's resources" would be mobilised to extinguish the fires.

Re: Indonesia says only a heavy downpour can help SG, so pray
Indo chief asked our NEA Chief why he came over for negotiation instead of LHL together with his foreign affairs ministar Ah Shan?
Our NEA Chief can't answer that questions, hence the talk ended with "No money no talk".

Re: Goh Chok Tong speaks....... finally
That fucking ball-less eunuch Goh and puppet of Lee Kuan Yew should go chew on joss sticks and keep his fucking mouth shut.
All kind of fucking titles that never exist in democratic world such as Senior Emeratus Minister whatever the fuck that meant.
Which is why Ah Loonie should be made Grand Field Marshallissimomo.

Re: "Is Singapore burning?"....... no intelligence avail......
at least he is honest and I do NOT mind such an answer so long as it is honest and said in all earnesty. What is worse is all the hypocritical remarks , all the talking about obvious childish facts like" don't go out unless you have to" or no brainer like " support one another" etc that makes people mad and angry.
