a disaster is overdue for singapore


There is a manhunt for a terrorist who has just escaped the Whitley Road detention centre. His name is Mas Selamat Kastari and this is how his mug looks like,

please fucking remember his face.
I realised nobody online cares. I say that because nobody even bothers towrite something about it. You all might ask, what's wrong with not writing? Or, what's wrong with not bothering?
There's nothing wrong, it's not anyone's fault. But there is an escaped terrorist on the loose.

YOU ALL COULD AT LEAST FUCKING BOTHER

Why?
When was the last time you heard someone escape a detention centre? Never right? Everyone thinks our police force is all-powerful. When was the last time you had a terrorist escaping?
Never.
If you fuckers still don't see the seriousness of this, I pray that you all go hang yourself.
A person escaping from a detention centre is a big deal in Singapore, much more if he is a terrorist. Why? Because he is a fucking terrorist, because he has the means to hurt you, whether directly or indirectly.
Do you all need something to happen before you all bother?
Past his fucking picture in your MSN, that way you see him long enough you'll remember his face.
Yes, if everyone in Singapore knows how he looks like, how can he hide? How can he go buy food? He'll be trapped, or localised in one place. HE WILL NOT BE MOBILE!
Do you really think that remembering his face is so difficult? No it isn't, if everybody do their part, it is possible, at least the majority of Singaporeans know how he looks like.
But no.... nobody bothers. Because everyone thinks someone else is doing something for it. Well guess what, each policemen out there is hoping that too. Because we are all Singaporeans, fucking Singaporeans.

The Singapore Airshow


My friends and I went to the airshow yesterday, on Saturday the 23rd. W didn't have to queue at wheverever the places were because we bought the family package, $100 for a carpark label and 4 tickets, roughly $25 per person. When you compare this to the standard $20 tickets, paying an extra $5 dollars was worth it.

I had no idea about the chaos that was happening at the shuttle bus locations. 1-kilometer long queues, poor organisation, and traffic jams made the experience difficult and frustrating for many vsitors, many whom were tourists. In fact, if i didn't know about the boo-boo, I would still think my experience was a great one. We drove in easily(minor jam), and drove out without breaking a sweat after leaving the show.

Such a major event should have seen better organisation. Hopefully the organisors would have learnt something from this and improve on the situation for the next Airshow.

Meanwhile, here are some pictures from my camera phone.


Leopard 2 MBT



The first exhibit I saw was the Leopard 2 Main Battle Tank(MBT). Its full name is the Leopard 2 A4. This tank finally gives singapore the MBT punch for our armour. This tank ranks among on of the best in the world. And i mean, the "top few" type of best.

AH-64D Longbow Apache



This is an attack helicopter with a tank-destroying mission. It can carry up to 16 Hellfire anti-tank missiles on its outboard pylons. However, a more usual weapons complement would be 8 Hellfires, two 38-round Hydra Rocket pods, a 30mm chaingun, and even air-air missiles like sidewinders or stingers. Combined with the Leopard 2 tank, Singapore has an extremely potent anti-tank capability. I'm ain't kidding girls and boys, when the enemy sees our Apache and Leopard, they better run, because they will die.


MQ-88 Firescout



This is some UAV from the united states navy. Pilotless drone that can loiter and spy on the enemy without danger to the pilot.

F-15C Eagle



This is one of the best fighter jets in modern times. By best i mean impressive kill ratios, operational capabilities, and even a landing done by an Eagle with half its wing sheared off. This is a true air superiority fighter of our times, however, there seems to be some problems regarding its wing structure recently, resulting in the grounding of a few hundred of these planes in USA.



Here's the business end of the Eagle, its twin engines.


Airbus A380


Here it is guys, the A380 in the flesh... or metal. Not only is it huge, but when flown, it showed that it was extremely quiet.



Parking



Getting closer....

Rolls-Royce engines. Millions of dollars per engine. You don't even get to stand so close to a "normal" jet at the airport(yes i know, for safety reasons). But here we are, standing so close to a plane so well known to the world. Amazing


I forgot what the name of this plane was. But all of us agreed that it looked really good. Kinda cool if one has the chance of owning and flying this plane.

That's all guys, I hope that the next Airshow would be a better one, with more aircraft from Russia, instead of seeing the same America planes over and over again. I'm also hoping one day the blue angels might grace our shores with their acrobatics.

Ciao.

I was doing some work last night when I smelt smoke, and when i looked out of my window, I saw that there was smoke indeed, coming from the incense bins.

Being frustrated with the smell, I started to think of why people continue burning incense in the name of tradition.

1. When you burn incense, how do you know that it will go to its intended recipient?

2. If let's say, you have two grandparents and an uncle who have passed on, would burning incense ensures that each of them get's a third of the money? Or, would it automatically factor in their responsibilities during their time on Earth, and then allocate them the amount appropriately?

3. If I was cooking and say perhaps that I, burnt my food, do my dead relatives rceive the food? If so, in what portions? Do all my dead relatives get an equal share of it?

Burning incense pollutes that air, that is a fact, and I just can't get over the fact that we easily use tradition as an excuse to overlook that fact that, the AIR IS BEING POLLUTED!
In the first place, how sure you are of your God?

If the Taoist Gods are real, then do we have 7th month in USA, Brazil, Russia, Ethiopia and Mexico too? Do souls walk freely in these countries during 7th month too?

If everyone is so sure that their God is the true and ONLY God, won't we HAVE A PROBLEM?

How can so many people smultaneously be so sure of their existance of their God, and at the same time claim that their God is the one true God? Its like everybody in a room saying that they are the tallest, and that no one else can be taller than them.

Think about it: the things we have sacrificed, or are destroying in the name of religion.

People waged wars because of religion, there is pollution from burning incense or dumping religious media into rivers, terrorism exist because of warped interpretations of a certain holy book.

There is no need to burn incense. The only people you are making happy are the ones selling you these run of the mill paper. You guys are making them RICH!

Stop polluting the Earth, it is suffering enough.
