haha.

I think we'd be equally concerned about our neighbours having those as well. In fact, even more concerned since we have no way to ensure that a meltdown doesn't happen.

I am a Malaysian.

If Malaysia really builds a Nuclear Plant, I am seriously going to consider migrating to another country or at the very least stay as far away from the plant as possible.

Because I can predict (actually, we all know) exactly what kind of people or so-called professionals that they are going to put there in charged of the plant. And I have ZERO confidence in them.

They will have a bunch of incompetent and yet arrogant engineers. Most of them will have 3rd-class bachelor degrees from unheard-of overseas universities that try hard to make them graduate so that the Malaysian government is happy enough to keep sending young students to the same universities year after year.

Actually i symphatise with the plight of the Chinese in Malaysia. You guys are discrimated at a state level! I have no problems with the bumis having special priviledges but obviously if Malaysia wants to be a developed country by 2020 then it must be able to cultivate real talents instead of the uni grads with the type of standard you have mentioned above.

They can practise both meritocracy as well as special priviledges for bumis at the same time while not forgoing progress and efficiency. Singapore is one such example. I know for sure that Singaporean Malays can have free education for as far as they can go in government schools. Although to say that Singapore is purely based on meritocracy is not 100% true but at least most can agree that our system works,even for a young tiny city state with no natural resources.

sand king SG

i’ll move out of singapore if malaysia dose that

Ito_^ SG

boom.

sand king SG

who knows Laughing

LordIcarus SG

wah, got accident, singapore will tio ah?

alwaysdisturbed SG

if i'm not wrong the chernobyl accident nt only affect people that were living in chernobyl but also people living in the neighbouring countries. the wind will bring the aftereffects over. so even if u don't hear or see anything, it doesn't mean u will be safe.

sand king SG

singapore wiped off the world map la...every1 will die of radition if not killed by the blast

monoslayer SG

not all will die lah. some will become hulk, some will turn into mutants. it varies from person to person. Laughing

SingaporeTyrannosaur SG

Only the Gundams will survive...

But a nuclear accident will have serious implications... man I will be worried if they start thinking about doing it.

sand king SG

can i be the hulk please please please!

Did any of you realise that 20 years ago Malaysia built a oil refinery or power station or something in full view of Singapore. I lived in AMK then, one night, we noticed a bright flame at night up north.

This bloody thing with the flame burning from the chimney is belching out smoke 24 hours a day. Not only is it a blight to our scenic view, it is also a source a pollution.

The Malaysians have a million places where they can build this monstrosity - I've drove past it - but they chose to build it near Singapore.

I won't be surprised that they might announce for real or just for fun that the site of their nuclear plants will be somewhere in Johore very near Singapore... knowing them and their stupid little games.

When their plant is 80% complete, we should airstrike the bloody thing before it becomes operational.

The Malaysians can't even be trusted to operate an airport, much less a nuclear plant.

If the world is running low on fossil fuel, people should just stop driving their cars and take public transports and other such measures.

"Cheap" nuclear power will cost us the earth.

monoslayer SG

as i said, it varys from person to person. there is no guarantees. but u can certainly help to increase ur chances by eating 3 teaspoons of wasabi daily. Laughing

I currently live in Sengkang can also see the two huge fires burning in South Johore. Its most probably oil refinery where excess hydrocarbons are burned off. Can't really blame them too because the oil is transported in and then later the petroleum products to be exported by ships so it needs to be near the major shipping routes which is near Singapore.

Actually I also don't trust the Malaysian government to operate a nuclear power plant. But the fact is they already operate a small reactor for research purposes for many years. Lets just hope their plans will not be carried out.

Malaysia

Malaysia produced 78 billion kWh in 2003, 93% of this from fossil fuels, the balance from hydro.

In August 2006 the Malaysian Nuclear Licensing Board said that plans for nuclear power after 2020 should be brought forward and two reactors built much sooner.

The Malaysian Institute for Nuclear Technology has operated a 1 MW Triga research reactor since 1982.

the chernobyl incident indirectly hurt the whole of europe of parts of asia as strong winds swept the nuclear cloud over the crops in eastern europe, thereby contaminating them. those crops were later exported to western europe and parts of asia. soon after a wave of leukamie swept the planet.

despite that incident, i believe nuclear power is still a necessity. unless you're willing to give up civilisation.

Agenda SG

I'll either go live in the North Pole or run for PM office

And lead the SAF up north Twisted Evil
