last SG · 2005-07-28T20:19:19+00:00

another silly idea to fight crime.

sbst275 SG

Dun have to pay??? Thought everyone by right should be responsible for our security??? If we are bo chap, then govt have to do it...

I am just disappointed on the report finding by CNA when they left a bag on a street...

dragg SG

helping the poor is our duty.

now security is also our duty.

then why do we pay taxes for?

sbst275 SG

Isn't it a shared respobsibility?? So we pay taxes so that gives us the right to demand everything better from govt and kick them when something like the new Lib??

If that's the case, then we should employ more police and patrol everywhere...

gypises SG

cOOl down guys....
Cool

dragg SG

US fights terror too. ever heard of their government asking their people to pay so that the government can buy equipment to fight terror.

sbst275 SG

You cannot use the US..

Was they prepared for 911 in the 1st place? They were even joking that this would happen..

Well, they dun collect, see US govt going bankrupt...

dragg SG

cannot compare to US. then how you know the terrorist will hit us. you compare to london didnt you?

sbst275 SG

Yeap...

How I know terroist will hit us??? It can happen 1 min later, 1 hr later...

Qn, are we prepared?

dragg SG

we dont need to be prepared. its the government who needs to be prepared. or are you one of them?

sbst275 SG

Or..

So you are saying a bomb come, you expect govt to settle everything? I tell you, if that's the case, everyone would have been dead...

That's why I say majority of Singaporeans are NAIVE and bo chap... Think everything not their biz, what happens if it is on YOU

dragg SG

common sense right? if it hits me i am probably dead.

use your farking brain for once, if you have something in between your ears.

if the government had kept a low profile and not antagonise the terrorists do you think they will be interested in us?

who are the people who uses public transport? the common citizens, definitely not the ministers. if there is a terror attack commoners are the one who suffers, never the ministers.

so what are saying now is we should all be ready and vigilant. we should share the responsibility and cost of fighting terror when nothing is the result of our own making.

the ministers are inviting an attack with the things they say internationally. they are the ones who should be responsible.

sbst275 SG

Well, we have US troops here, even we dun talk, they still wanna attack one... What you take the terrorist for? You think they only wanna attack ppl they dislike? They want to create fear... In fact, now countries with MRT system are at risk....

Well, so you are saying when Tony Tan was talking abt the bags left delibrately was talking cock? If something happen and you survive... See what happens, your

CCTV in HDB! The whole proposal is simple & stupid.

1. How many CCTV do you need to install in order us to monitor and trace any person in & out of the block? 4, 5, 6 or more CCTV. How effective are they for us to trace if they walk in by wearing a big jacket. or gray areas?

2. If someone really want to attack any block, do they need to carry the bomb & bring them into any HDB block, or all they need to do is just park their vehicles beside any block while people are picking up their children from school?

3. It is the duty of our officers not to have any bomb in the hands of wrong people, or to open windows for terrorist to bring in bomb. Installing CCTV in HDB blocks, the whole idea is a simple & stupid one. It is okay if they want to do something stupid, but now they are asking poor Singaporeans to pay up for their stupidity.

Singaporeans is not naive or bo chap, it is because they simply not interested in any monkey show.

gypises SG

The Govt of The Republic of Singapore always BOOST that we are well-prepared. The media also keep emphasizing that according to survey S'porean is very comfortable with SAF / Police Force....
As for the Qn u mentioned below, are we prepared?
Does that means u DOUBT our Govt in the 1st place??
Yet u sounds as if u are in full support for the Govt.... Doesn't that seem to be some propaganda warfare u are playing????

Cindyfeh SG

If every one of our ministers including the PM, President, SM and MM take the US minister equivalent pay, I think we can afford the CCTVs.

But of course, only in our dreams will we expect them to take such a pay cut.

By the way, will anyone check if any of the ministers are invovled with CCTV trade?

Lavendin SG

they needed an excuse to spy on us mah

so easy to guess lah

not to stop terrorist

to monitor everybody

i already feel someone following my every move

*hello spiders*

About A GaL SG

BUT Excuse me can i know what is the ISD doing?

tranquilice SG

Installing the CCTVs at the lift lobby or inside the lifts is okay to me, as crime rate inside lifts may be reduced. However installing them in other places of the HDB block seems pointless.
