TR EMERITUS

@ Simon
We welcome the US naval vessels port visits and their logistical replenishments from Singapore and we also welcome mutual cooperation and visitation, however, I feel that any significant increase in military engagements between the US and us in this part of the world and thus potentially upsetting the status quo is likely to turn us into potential collateral should the US and China clash militarily either over Taiwan and/or the South China Sea. The likelihoods are real and near.
==========================================
For God’s sake, PAP cannot remind in power.

So after coming back,troop will be send to assist.nothing to do with economy.

Don’t you know that Singapore is a US ally? Same as Philippines, Australia, Japan, …

I see why Bala had to support the sanctions on Putin.
Not too sure on retrograde movements though whomever the imposer or imposed. And we DON’T side !!, being a small nation.

So this is what Ah Loong and gang get for joining Uncle Sam in imposing sanctions on Russia, izzit? The reward is a time slot to meet Joker Biden in US?

Last time his lao peh often got invited to meet the US big shot. Now d!shonourable son is a total contrast. So many years as sg pm, how many invitations did he receive compared to his lao peh? So poor thing, now even have to bootlick just to earn some VIP time with his US counterpart. It’s so embarrassing or sibeh siah suay for a world’s highest paid politician!

The world is different now.
Putin has make it clear to all.
We live in dangerous time…make best us of it.
No point accumulating much richness for yourselves and family…it can be gone any moment.
Better do good with what you have and enjoy while you can before bad days come.

Someone must be still not happy for not being included by Biden in the earlier Summits on Democracy, so quickly hasten off to USA now to reassert his “importance”, hor. Most expensive PM cannot be seen to be doing nothing, hor.

If people have not wised up, $inkieland is now a fully-fledged vassal state of the American Empire. $inkieland is the forward base of operations of the Americans in confronting China.

Now China and Russia are pissed that this tniy red dot wants to play geopolitical policeman. It will take 1 nuke from China or Russia to completely remove $inkieland from the world map.

It seems $inkieland is full of heroes, who may be really zeroes. Already the population is slowly dying from being vaxx. Dying as collateral damage in a war is entirely different.

panyusg:
China’s military intentions does not end with the South China Sea. Rather it is the Straits of Malacca and the Straits of Spore (between Spore and Batam).

Both are vital to China and so Spore is in a tight situation. There will come a time when the Big Powers will clash over both Straits.

In any confrontation with USA and Quad, China will seek to ensure the Straits are not blocked to China’s vessels.

Sinking a VLCC (very large crude carrier) will completely block the Straits of Singapore and deny navigation passage to China. This will not be allowed to happen by China.

I see a worrisomme future for Spore. Any major clash with China is not at the Taiwan Straits but at Spore.

Tech: You are suggesting China wants to invade Malaysia and Sinkieland too? You are so imaginative!
