Jailed for blind loves in Foreign land for Singapore girls

2011-03-09T17:59:00.000-08:00

The casanovas from faraway third world promises the girls lots of love
and and devotion. They were wooed with free stays and loads of cash ,
when the young lad sometime rendevous in Bkk or KL when they were
banned for overstaying.
The gullible lasses are now having a long time not in a love hotel but
behind the women prison in Australia ,Hong Kong and Japan.
The smooth operators are believed to be West African or
mainly Nigerian.

The Central Narcotics Bureau reported that 8 Singaporeans
have been caught for 2009. among them 7 women, up from 22
since 2003. So if a single lass seems to be chatted up by a dashing
Nigerians ,plenty of cash,and used cars traders and electronic goods ,
and look from 20 and above ,turn on your safety antenna.

These could land into something beyond love and lovenest, only jail for
2 and the cold stone floor everyday. The conman in love are also are also
internet savvy and websites visitors.

Once in the throes of love, these lasses could not see beyond the cash
and good times and invited to home and mum.
Once alone and in a strange countries,they are forced to courier the
drugs through false bottom suitcase or in their body.

The drugs are mainly for another country for the Singapore passport
attracts less attention.
The CNB reported that so far this year it recovered 1kg of heroin
No 4 ,the purest grade, and arrested 3 lasses and four West Africans handler.
These Singaporean lasses must be unsophisticated in love and dumb,
and clueless for the news always warn of drugs in third world , and the
scammers.
What could third world countries give to Singapore that we
cannot produce.?

These scams have been highlighted frequently, big money to lure small
money that only those who did not read the news are not in the know.
Lessons like these will help insulate Singaporeans in the future.

In a statement, CNB said it takes “a serious view of syndicates
trying to recruit Singaporeans as drug couriers”,and " should
not allow themselves to be made use of by foreign drug syndicates",
including offer of free travel or paid holidays.

Nothing is free in the world today.Payback is now or later.Period.

Railway KTMB stopped at border by PMS Najib and Lee

2010-05-27T03:52:00.000-07:00

The Prime Minister of Malaysia Najib and Singapore Lee emerged from the retreat at Sentosa it was all Go on the KTMB case which had laid unresolved for 20 years.

It went through 3 Ex Premiers on Malaysia side, and two from Singapore side when the baggage have finally been opened. It involves in the end trading the lands that straddle Singapore a swarth of prime real estate,snaking and chugging thru residential estates and many commercial buildings with a startling change.
The dinosaur aged old railway train which belong to Malaysia have not changed much since the 50s.
Its operating system have baffled and mystified many who could not see the conundrum, of jet age living with the slow age.
Political wills have prevailed over past differences, with water, land ,airspace thrown into the works. And all have failed before.
The bridge was too far, even building the 2nd link bridge, there was still the gulf that separated Singapore and Malaysia.
It might have continued into the future have it not been solve today. The founding farther, Dr Goh also passed away last week, he was the GA in Singohpore.
Probably his modesty and humanity stopped him from having the credits of having made Singapore into what it is today. And back to the KTM land deal, Singapore was once part of Malaysia in the 50s.
The KTM was then chugging away, many a tourists and people alike to northen park of Malaya, through Johore, the frontier town.
I remembered , on my NS leave, I took a $50 into my backpack and hitch a ride, bus or train to Penang and back again in two weeks or bust.
It opened my eyes and change my characters on how Society works.
I have met crooks , drug seller and kind driver who allow me to jump into their vehicle on my way to Penang.
Meanwhile the impasse on the status of KTM Berhad (KTMB) land , that presently cut across half of Singapore was never settled .
With ex Premier, who was insulted when he studied as an intern in the past in Singapore, to the Minister whose late father was banned from Singapore for involvement in the Maria Hertogh,s riots in Singapore, all the angst will float to the surface,blocking the negotiation table. However Datuk Seri Najib, the son of the founding of Malaysia and the son of the Present PM of Singapore both were tiny when the turbulence of the birth of Singapore and Malaysia were emerging in the 50s.
Datuk Seri Najib must have spent happy time in Singapore, or sat through the KTMB that was the mode of transport in the 50s.
In the cattle class, it was noise ear shattering noise of the 1000 horses locomotive engines. Presumably, he was in the end of the train which should be a comfortable decibels and poshed and insulated.
Anyway time have moved and the water under the bridge have moved and meanders into the seas,fast forward now and KTMB was left in a stark time warp, not there , but here, and ever heard of having your passport stamped or not stamped with Malaysian chop in Singapore ?
Two countries one system ? One could almost commit a crime in Silly Singapore and seek asylum in KTMB station, much like the porous borders of Canada, when the stateline could be drawn in the grass. So many have flees US by being arrested on Canadian borders which voids the arrest.
Now back to the KTMB. Malaysia will move its railway station at Tanjung Pagar to Woodlands, the norhtern most part of Singapore.The clincher would be the three parcels of KTMB land - at Tanjung Pagar, Kranji and Woodlands here - would be jointly owned, developed or traded by an M-S company owned 40 by Singapore and the rest by the other party .

Most expect the land to be in the Marina Bay , where the reclaimed land will starts in the Billions. For curiosity sake, the sand that is the building or parcels of land that stood was source from other than Malaysia.It might be helpfull if the flowers that grace the building be be soiled with sands from Malaysia , to show the ironies of it all.
It was banned from importing the sand from Malaysia for the construction industry especially building the shoreline or enlarging the shoreline of Singapore.Most like Singapore to be cute, and small, not bigger, so the easier to handle with. That is the reasons the land cost in the billions.Importing sand from faraway land is an expensive affairs, grain by grains.
Now on the nitty gritty, both PM agreed on the enhanced features, much like the buttons on the internets,on the agreement POA signed in 1990.
At that time, the enhanced features was nowhere to be seen, especially with the feisty Ex Premier.
Elaborating on the deal,both side would meet again in one month,s time in Malaysia,
which is the hot month of June.Many hailed the agreements as win-win. The baggage was left two long in the storeroom, and on opening would be a treasure trove of historical wonders.
On the other hand it would enhance the travel of both countries with the establishment of rail and subway link in Johore and Singapore, bypassing the current causeway which is a cause for concerns and more. The back in time immigration facilities smacks of time warp, the new alongside the old, the piles still in the water of the infrastructure of the crooked causeway.
The breaking of the water pipeline would also make most Singapore thirty, but they might as well sipped Champagne in the absence of water. The statement said by Najib, was worthy to quote "we see light at the end of the tunnel.".and "We are both smiling," .
Further PM Najib standing beside Lee said it was an occasion to rejoice. It is about time,the glass was gathering cobwebs after 20 years in the same post. The ice buckets need to be refilled though, the holder needs to be polish to show the shine. Finally the people of Singapore and Malaysia will get to rejoice and join in the relocation of the current CIQ centre in which people of both side had to face in the daily grind transmuting .
The statement said KTMB will shift to Woodlands by July 1 2011. In a concession

Malaysia's customs, immigration and quarantine facilities will also be located there, a strange but mixed sovereign agreement to facilitate the users. Presumably, lawbreakers will be under Malaysian and Singapore system of law.

The joint company known as M-S Pte Ltd set up by Dec 31,with the smallest in in the history of the Company Registrar with Khazanah Nasional Berhad and Singapore's Temasek Holdings.
It will hold six parcels of land totalling 271ha one of the biggest landlord next to the listed company in Singapore. The historic land parcels are in Tanjung Pagar, Kranji and Woodlands, currently a bunch of old buildings, illegally storage space and leanto, untouched by Singapore,s law.
It is expected all activities will be legalised and much coverted by land developers here in Singapore.

The PMS also envisage the rapid transit system (RTS) between Tanjung Puteri in Johor Baru and Singapore to take over the current descript and non fucntioning CIG. The RTS would be fully developed and integrated with public transport services by 2018,where the like of MagnetLev would be widely available.

Central Singapore Under Water 1

2009-11-20T02:41:00.000-08:00

The rich of Singapore were hit hard, materially and physically , in the heart of Singapore. Apparently , technology and nature got into a tangle, the perfect storms as they said in the movies. A spokesman for PUB, not the place where the local unwind over a Tiger,Intense rain resulted in the equivalent of 115 Olympic-size pools of water being drained into the Bukit Timah 1st Diversion Canal - which separates Bukit Timah Road and Dunearn Road - causing it to overflow, said the PUB.

The heavy rain also affected many parts of the island. According to PUB, the total amount of rainfall at Bukit Timah Road was 110mm, which is approximately 43 per cent of the average monthly rainfall for November. It happens by design because Singapore,s canal were supposed to drain into the Marina Bay and then into the sea.
The rebuilt and enlarged drains in Bukit Timah or Tin Hill,the local name was designed to divert all excess flash flood into pipe linking the western
reservoir (Pandan Reservoir). It did it job for two years, and then the tide and the perfect timing and the monsoons soon put it to the test, it overwhelms the system when the division did not absorb enough away from the Canal. Thus the 115 size pools of water. In every month of April, the rain is very much welcomed as the farmers in India, but this time the goodness soaks and flood everything in sight and out of sight, including the BMW, the basement car parks and low lying lander properties. Most items were either soaking wet or under water, which means a lot of cleaning up by the housemaids. No weekend out this week.It was reported that some cars were floating around in the carpark.Some students had to sit their exams after the buses were late.In fact, never had a heavier rain falls in tropical Singapore for the last ten years. In local folkloar ,it mean raining cats and dogs and good fortunes and manna from heavens. Immediately, the local PR Governments declares the recession over. Thus there is some truth in the saying. It doe not rain but it pours. More good things are a-coming for Singapore.
