[popdod]

For $3000, they could just get one of those newly joined 'A' level officers to enter the university with a fully paid scholarship (with bond). No need to worry kenna play out by people some more.

 

[HellAngel]

The article write as if the ISD officer is going for FL.

Talk for 30mins then ask if the party want to do the job for some amount of money. If this is how ISD officer work then, any old man that walks along Geylang also can do the ISD job. Why pay high salary for these officers when I'm sure the dirty old men can do the same thing for half the price?

I think this article is a fake unless the writer is able to show himself.

This happens all over the world. That is how Intelligence agencies operate. They can't be effective without informants and they will try every means to gather information. Universities are usally where such issues crop up as it happened with the Fajar lot, the Tan Wah Piow / Juliet Chin affair, the Kevin de Souza matter, the Hussin Mutalib, Bilveer Singh, Chris Lingle, the democracy wall etc in NUS, and the communist infiltration of Nantah.

Many students give excuses and avoid getting involved, some take it up with the view of serving the country, otthers find the fiancial arrangement attractive and many scholars, salaried civil servants on govt grant to pursue further education feel pressured to take it up. After Wah Piow affair, nearly all the students uniions appointments over the years were controlled by ISD and some of them were paid by ISD.

I can assure you if something suddenly happens in the Uni and ISD has no clue, their heads will role.

The comments by some of the readers and the writer himself shows naievety and clearly no grasp of the current events.

Troll alert!!!! Troll alert!!!! Troll alert!!!!!


Poster trying to make asses out of everybody!!!!!

Even Kong Hee and James Phang have 4 videocamera aimed on them 24-7. For training and promotional purpose. How many videocam does a university lecturer have on him?

No need to recruit spy. Just go to NUS library or NUS Media Dept., and you can get every word the guy said over the entire year!!!!! And the 5 years prior!!!!!

Do you know that they don't record TUTORIAL classes?
That's where all the Professors cannot be recorded. :oIo:

 

[Subok]

It's beginning to make sense! How some NUS students yet eo start earning a single cents drive to campus>???!!

ahhhahahh hmmmm.... car for thought...

The Isd on campus stories has been ever present since my older siblings went for their further education. There are even stories of 'plants' in overseas unis. One of the first things we were told was not to borrow books with sensitive topics from the uni library.

The definition of "sensitive topics" during my time would have been drastically revised compared to now.

Before ISD approach anyone to be an informant, they did a background check to see if the person would be a loud mouth.

and this story come from TR?

Another fearmongering attempt or just pure attention seeking?

 

[HTOLAS]

Very true. But, you know, they could have been 'caught off guard'.

When did any writer for TR ever showed themselves?

Not ISD.

and even if they could be caught offgiuard, not in such a naive manner.

to me, this is pure fear mongering by TR on NUS students. for reasons that only they know.

 

[Ramseth]

Except for official public reward cases like murderers or terrorists on the run, ISD (or police generally) don't pay informants for information or tip-offs. They don't recruit informants by offering money. They do it by screening them and finding a tail to step on; could be their own tail, could be their relatives' tail.

Ramesth,

I am not too sure about this one. I have come to know that ISD did recruit students as spies in Nantah, Ngee Ann Poly and NUS.

Why would you need a spy to listen to what the lecturer says in class?

Isn't something that interest ISD attention belongs to some close and secretive dialog session among a group with some common interest, that will not be make public , let alone talking out loud in lecture hall?

Perhaps there are are spy in action, but certainly not this one, and definitely not in the way it is recruiting.

 

[Queen Seok Duk]

It would appear remuneration for Spy is so much less attractive compared to traitors.

$3,000 for a spy is ridiculous ! For a start, he needs a Omega Seamaster that can cut steel; an Aston Martin that can turn invisible ... and many many chio bus as well.

you forgot about cheaper faster better?

For those who think this is the perpetuation of false fears, I can say that the fear is real (not saying the uncle is). There are verified stories of trainee civil servants who were dropped out of course for asking funny questions during NE classes. This was in the 80s.
