What is Marina Barrage for?

[Leongsam]

1]the necessities in sillypore : water , food , electricity
electricity being generated using oil or gas.
2] all above come from other places.
3] do you have solution for food and electricity ? how to not dependent on others ?
4] sillypore was forced to make own water because the scum had grown to
be boastful , arrogant.
5] such a small cunty yet it like to agonize , belittle others.
like to be lumpar one in everything.
6] what if indonesia and malaysia build a low bridge across the malacca strait ?
how do the tankers and container ships come to the port ?

In the event of a confrontation, it is the task of all the branches of the armed forces to keep supply chains going. That's where the billions of dollars of defense spending comes into play.

Nothing is guaranteed when it comes to conflict but to just roll over and surrender before the first shot is fired because the task of defense is difficult is not the way to run a country.

Don't forget that when it comes to war, it's your assets and the lives of your loved ones that you are defending. The PAP won't be around forever and probably won't last your lifetime. However, your assets and your childrens assets are at risk in the long term if no attempts are made to secure Singapore's existence. Don't confuse politics with national defense. They are entirely different issues.

As for the policy of appeasement between neighbors I'm afraid it only works when you're negotiating from a position of strength. Many countries have learned this the hard way. Singapore's position of making any conflict as costly as possible for its potential aggressors is the correct strategy to take.

By all means question the execution of the this strategy but to change tack and relieve the country of the cost of defense spending will spell disaster. Once the enemy smells blood, it's already too late.

Agreed. Provisions and precautions are necessary but why the fucks he chose to block the river mouth? There are so many other ways....shit water is one 'success' in which he forced people to drink. Another thing, why do they need to pump out when the water level inside the dam is higher than the sea? All they need is to open the gates and water will rush out into the open sea effortlessly saving a lot of money on the giant pumps. What fucking engineering design is this?

although the wall is higher than the sea level, I think the pumping is needed when they de-silt the bottom, just like the end where we de-silt

What eco are you talking about? The Kallang river and it's connected waterways were dead for decades, filthy smelly streams of nothing. Turning it into a freshwater reservoir is the best thing they could have done with it. It is being protected now like all the other reservoirs.

And how on earth does it compare with the causeway or land reclamation??

after cleaning up the rivers, govt shd have keep it as tidal waterway. by having the twice a day tides, there can have a diverse ecosystem supporting a variety of local lifeforms.

by building a dam across sungei serangoon, a big chunk of mangrove swamp was lose in the northeast, destroying habitats and without this tidal mangrove, many fish spieces lose their breeding ground. migrating birds also lose their feeding ground. what the point of having a waterway in the hdb estate when the water is stale and devoid of life.

i am not talking about war or conflict.

you said scum is smart by producing its own water , and don't need to depend on
malaysia.

i said sillypore is forced to do it because it is be yaya , boastful.
it liked to bad mouthed others countries.

how does a strong army help in negotiation ?
you saying if malaysia asked for $100 a gallon ,
sillypore will threatened to use force to bring down the price ?
if malaysia banned exporting anything to sillypore ,
sillypore can send in the army ?
is there any treaty that said malaysia , indonesia must trade with sillypore ?

even the sand it needed is from other countries.

that's why it put up a fade show of awarding some bullshit medal to
the general , police chief of others countries.
which other countries in the world do this ?
