Whoa there "tripwire"....
I had once asked if you know what lies on both ends of a
"Tripwire"; but got no reply from you.
Anyway, here is the answer :-
At one end of a tripwire is an anchor, while at the other end of
the tripwire is a booby trap.... watch this end carefully, it has
been known to have killed the guy who prepared it.
While your post mention Tony Tan's anger in Parliament as a sign of
weakness, what does your proposed action reveal ?
Strength...?
If you watched tonight's TV news shots, DPM/DM Tony Tan's emotions
were under control, and he reflected calm and precision in his
statements that exposes Malaysia's undisguised lust - in taking
advantage of Singapore's unfortunate accident to advance their own
weak territorial claims over Preda Branca.
They had the gall to send an Investigative Form to the Captain of
the RSN Patrol Vessel, for him to submit his statement so as to
allow the Malaysian Port Authority to investigate the accident
which they claimed had occured in territorial waters belonging to
Malaysia.
Leave it to the monkeys, and they will come up with more monkey
brained ideas which they think will help their claims over Preda
Branca (no more reference to it as Pulau Batu Puteh - what kind of
name is this anyway..??).
