U really think that when war breaks out, there will be time or even the chance to leave the country? Where will u escape to? Msia?? Cos if u think that u are gonna run to switzerland or any other neutral ctry to hide u are so wrong.
U are giving stupid arguments that only the inexperienced and cowards will give. During a war, while some citizens might get the chance to escape the country, majority will not be able to becos there is a very slim chance of leaving the country. Air traffic will be disrupted so u cant fly out. So what u gonna do? Swim with ur family towards Thailand???
That is the reason y all of us have to go thru ns. Becos during a war, when u haf nowhere to go but bring the fight to the enemy, then thats wat u gotta do to protect what u care for.
But then lets not waste our breath on u. I'd rather people like u leave as soon as possible becos u people consume our national resources. Go run to some other country while u still can.
Leave the poor fella alone. Judging by his posts, I doubt if he is a singaporean, and if he is, he would be a 'was' - an ex citizen here to stir shit. Seems like one of those pathetic and pitiful young men who fled the country so as not to serve his civic duty for society thru NS.
Here only to justify their cowardice. I had came across many, and could only pity them as they pile on excuses after excuses for their self-centredness and abandonment of our society, which they cannot even convince themselves, haunted by it and wear a mask of arrogance to cover up for their irresponsibilities.
Let them live, and may they find happiness elsewhere, as we ourselves seek deep within our hearts not to follow them, but to make a stand for our loved ones and those whom we cared for, never to be ever bullied again as our forefathers were.
We citizens here on our homeland are not heroes, Only simply ordinary men who happen or would happen to live in extra-ordinary times, with the need to perform more than ordinary should a crisis or war be declared, a duty to our loved ones we must not shirk from, come what may.
I dont think it's a good idea to get involved in North Korea ship matters.
An arrangement must be made to avoid any open confrontation.

we all don't want to get involved, but if the crazy guy nge nge chiong lai, what are we going to do?
lets hope that the US intercepts the ship before it reaches singapore.
But why they wanna target Singapore? Dun they know we got the best military in this region even though we may be a little red dot?
Cheers.
The USA sucker will let this play out on its own and leave responsibility to s'pore.

North Korea has already declared that it will be an act of War is any country should board their vessel and seized any cargo found in the suspected ship that the UN has declared as contraband and seizeable.
The North Korean ship is currently sailing in this direction and is said to be heading for Myanmar.
The North Korean ship had better sail in international waters if it does not wish to be boarded and the illegal cargo seized.
Even as Singapore's SAF is the strongest in Southeast Asia, it cannot reach North Korea, while North Korea can launch an intercontinental ballistic missile towards our direction without any difficulty.
It is unlikely that the North Korean will send their million man military to attack or invade Singapore, and all it can do is to retaliate by seizing a Singapore flagged ship or even an SIA plane.

I think as a state sponsor of terrorism, I think this one which u said should always be kept at the highest level of vigilance... DPRK has done it before, it might do it again...

Not without difficulty. The North Koreans do not have a proven missile that can reach our region. Their Taepodong 2 is so far a failure.
In actual truth, nutcase Kim is not really interested in his ships being boarded. It's all bombast. Whether if it's somalian pirates boarding their ships or Singapore navy boarding their ship and seizing their missiles is not an issue with him. And he would not bother with retaliation on other states and be distracted.
Simply because he is keeping to an even more important schedule , and that is - arming his nuke missile, getting it ready and firing it into Japan. The nuke missile launch should be ready soon, and that's when all hell will break loose, more so for Japan.
Japan had been a long time avowed enemy of N.Korea, and it would serve as a demostration purpose of his nuke ability. No sense in sending it to Hawaii as it serves no purpose.
Secondly, it is hoped that with his 4 kilotonne nuke that would effectively wipe out Tokyo, and with the East monsoon winds during the rest, it would put fear to the japs to not retaliate but sue for peace.
Japan, his closest neighbour, with one stroke thru the nuke, will cease to be a threat to Korea forevermore, and economically minded China with a vast population to feed held at bay with more N.Korean nukes in production
Thirdly, he wants to gooble up S.Korea whole, for he needs the rich resources there. He will not want to nuke S.Korea and destroy the wealth there. Destroying Japan will put fear into S.Korea to submission, enough to not necessitate the need for further missile strikes.
If S.Korea will not submit, then it will be gottermerung - all die together using the balance 5 nukes in his possession, as the nutcase knows he will not win in all out battle with S. Korea and US army, using his half starved troops by now and a probably cannibal N. Korean population, with sanctions in full swing.
His media mouthpiece will scream for days, but only because his missile launch is not ready yet. Once ready, the world can go to hell for all he cares, he intends to fulfilled his crazed and deluded spoilt child fantasy of owning S.Korea before he dies, or destroying it so that no one else will get to own the 2 koreas.
All tyrants and despots think alike. Hitler did the same and ordered gottomerung - the destruction of everything in Germany including the murder of his fellow citizens just before he pulled the trigger on his ownhead, but his generals 'act blur' and surrendered what's left of bomb razed germany and its population to the allies instead.
So, Singaporeans got really not much to fear even if we board and seize their ships. It's ultimately Japan who will face destruction from his nuke missile being prepared for launch in this moment even as I write.

It is unlikely that the North Korean will send their million man military to attack or invade Singapore, and all it can do is to retaliate by seizing a Singapore flagged ship or even an SIA plane.
Here are the implications:
1) The UN Sanction has a loop hole....US Navy ship cannot board the ship on the highsea without consent unless the ship dock at a port. The Host country will have to take UN resolution in effect if it is suppected.
2) Last week BBC reported that Myanmar is attacking Karen faction and drove the refuges into Thailand. It is possible that this is a Arm shipment to supply Myanmar military Junta for the offensive.
3) If this shipt is indeed Arm shipment, Than Singapore is a Transhipment hub for illicit arm shipment via Singapore. A PROOF.....evidents.
Conclusion:
Congradulation to PAP relationship with Myanmar....we now can proof ourselves that Singapore is part of the illicit arm transhipment and our relationship with Myanmar has just given ourselves a black eye.
cb lah they.
wan go, go elsewhr lah.
wait my pretty face becomes distorted den hw.

Did US want to dump N Korea hot potato into SG's hand as a revenge
for SG stings on Obama?
US has a lot of opportunity to intercept the N Korea ship
Kang Nam I since the ship left NK many days ago.
This news in fact reported USN already positioned to intercept it once
the ship leaving China coast.
But why did US just let the ship leaving China coast and heading to
Singapore?
I have conspiracy theory here,just a joke and rumor.
1.LKY,when he was in Japan recently,reminded Obama that the latter's
priority shall be economy!!If my memory is correct,LKY meant Obama
shall not spent energy and resources on big topics like
climate change etc.
2.LHL in his recent speech,also reminded free trade--
dunt just allow US to buy domestic products....
3.SG PM or MM,showed not agreeing to Obama's Green Shot theory!!

The US ship had lots of oportunity to PHYSICALLY intercept but no UN sanctioned AUTHORITY to intercept it, get it?

My learned Andrew,
UN sanction is a Standing Order.US or other gavaman dunt need
other UN sanction to take action.
How u can get Security Council or assembly in session to pass a resoluation
for this kind of incident?
Read how LHL stings on Obama----
No other country has dared to challenge the mighty USA,
except Singapore.Remember the young man called Michael Faye ?
I think he would be released in other countries,but not here!!
So it is emotional, rousing political language, completely understandable in this situation but the effect will be less support for trade, less support for globalisation, less opportunities to grow and prosper together.
http://www.pmo.gov.sg/News/Speeches/Prime+Minister/Transcript+PM+Lee+speech+in+Parliament.htm
read the paragraph--
It is not just faster or slower growth. I think there is also a change in attitudes worldwide...
''United States officials are still deciding whether to ask for the ship to be searched when it docks for refuelling in Singapore - a move which is allowed under a new UN Security Council resolution.''
@@@@@@@@@@@@22
Why cant USN search it at sea?
u read here then u know how smart US is to pass hot potatao
to other countries.
WASHINGTON — The Obama administration will order the Navy to hail and request permission to inspect North Korean ships at sea suspected of carrying arms or nuclear technology, but will not board them by force, senior administration officials said Monday.
The new effort to intercept North Korean ships, and track them to their next port, where Washington will press for the inspections they refused at sea, is part of what the officials described as “vigorous enforcement” of the United Nations Security Council resolution approved Friday.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
so u see.Now Singapore may becomes a battle ground for US and PRC!!
NK is just a front line soldier.The General is PRC!!
dunt play play....
-Singapore is a free port if not for those warnings frm US, we would have allow the shipments to pass through.
Anyway, North Korea wouldn't waste their precious Nuclear on us, we are not worthy opponent. Maybe the authorities can try talking to AYG NKorean youths for information.

That is what I have been telling you. They can't, they do not have the authority from the UN to search at sea.

I would love to leave the country if i can. This place sucks. Anyway, u are not looking at the political side. u just want dignity u are very self-centered, anyway, most singaporean are like you, i've seen them all. As if u would want to fight in the war, i bet at the losing end you would surrender, with all the other people who are in the war.
