No help for dying dad at Woodlands checkpoint

wildlife123 SG

the best is both woodlands and JB checkpoint station hv 1 medical officer each. whichever side standby for ermergency situation.

eagle SG

might as well say every major shopping centre in sg also station medical officers...

Ristar SG

should have at least 1 team with a fully equipped vehicle to do evacuation wat. where got ppl station 1 miserable guy only? Laughing

not realistic lah. people can then argue wat if 1 team is evacuating a casualty, then theres no more standby team?

so, must have 2 or more teams stationed there waiting for something unlikely to happen, with more on standby in watever hospital they are from.

not realistic.

best is for the customs and immigration officers know how to execute a proper CPR and first aid, and equipped with an AED or two.

FireIce SG

need to build a hospital there with state-of-the-art equipment like heart transplant and br3ast enlargement
u neber know wat kinda emergencies will happen

ispyyy SG

In all big organisation, they will at least have some1 to be first aid train as their secondary appointment...
I think some officers in immigration check point r first aid trained lah ...

ispyyy SG

lol... u consider br3ast enlargement as emergencies ??

caleb_chiang SG

IMO, he should had sent his father to the nearest hospital.

U-turning and going through the check point is a big mistake as god knows how long it would take!

Thus, he decided to let his father die and now try to push the blame to others...

In any borders' officers who met with people like him would slam their door at them as there are safety measure to be kept. Who knows that he might be psycho.

Even if the officer did endorse for him, he still need to wait for the 2 cars to leave first before he can exit. Thus, he is only prolonging time and not helping at all.

Cpt.ZR SG

damn.. If i were incharge of the immigration, i will fire the moron who slammed the door at the fella when he is asking for help not to forget i will freeze her CPF account too and make her have no access to 995 for next 50 yrs.

and as for the cisco mofo... I'll make him pick up bullet at the live firing range.

eviljustice SG

welcome to singapore..

wildlife123 SG

so what if he is trained, he might not done it before. TS defintely dont want to become a guinea pig

ORIGAMIST SG

Well, that was one of the consideration why I didn't act on it... well, a few years later, the mama delivery man was in our office depatching magazine.. he was always in hurry and sweaty.. he had a heart attack and the office's doctor was summon to help.... he came up recee around and without even touch the patient, he said " Call the ambulance !"... We were all speculating why he didn't perform CPR when he is the medical authority .. this time round I wasn't there.... Crying or Very sad

ispyyy SG

If u have first aider is better than no first aider...
if a person's heart failed or bleeding profusely, a first aider can help to prolong the victim's life till professional medical team come...
Actually, the question is not if the TS want or not??
It is whether people who r trained in first aid want to help ,or not??

WinnieThePooh SG

OH MY GOD!!! MY BOOB EXPLODED!!! EMERGENCY!!!

Imagine mad woman screaming at check pt... Laughing

storywolf SG

Do yourself a favour !! use your brain.

if a guy is making a whole hell of noise and stuff !!! - you frankly think the god damn police or custom would have taken him away in 5mins !!!

10 mins - to walk by 2 cars + walk back + stamping the passport + time the officer shut the glass. Hell even an idiot knows there is a lot of missing minutes !!! If he is not stand there like an idiot and look at his watch and time 10 mintues final get the chop then go back to his car !!! You so smart then tell me what the hell you think he was doing in that 10mins

HAMSTER07 SG

Sad. You mean the father died just because they acted slowly?

Ristar SG

please carry on and ignore my point that you cant read.

storywolf, do i need to say more, or u just dun get it?

o0Nite0o SG

i would smash the window and pull the officer out of the cubicle. A life is at stake.. this kind of attitude should'nt be tolerated..

The guy did the right thing in bringing this up to the media. The officers there are probably screwed now.

ispyyy SG

lol.. if it is me, I wont smash the window lah.. I will simply drive pass without immigration

Icemoon SG

and you believe the 143th press in the world? Laughing

Anyway it is unclear whether he *demanded* to book the *whole* plane or he just arranged with the carrier to bring her back. I suppose if you fly first class, there are things the crew can do to bring a sick person back home? But we can agree that SIA was doing above his expectations. He paid because he did not want people to think SIA gave him free treatment.

Icemoon SG

It is true that money can "buy" things like time and wealth. For example you go private hospital, queue is shorter? and standard of healthcare is higher. Also if better doctors operate on you, the chance of a successful operation is higher.

So you blaming who? Capitalism? Money? Mr. Green
