PM says terrorist attacks like the Paris tragedy can happen in Singapore..Really. Let's look at the data objectively. Singapore is very different from Paris or other countries in Europe and US. First thing is how the terrorist gonna to get the guns, explosives or ammo? Those items r more difficult to get than diamonds! Secondly Singapore is a very small and controlled place. Any terrorist cells have to be very well hidden for it to succeed. That's not to say it can't happen but it's probably ten times more difficult to pull it off.

Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong yesterday warned Singaporeans that the violence wrought on Paris last Friday could happen in Singapore and they have to be psychologically prepared for it.

"We are in the middle of a region (where) ISIS is active," he said, referring to terror group Islamic State in Iraq and Syria.

Some 700 South-east Asians have gone to the Middle East to join ISIS, including some Singaporeans.

Singapore security is not airtight. Look at little India. you don't need guns.

U can smuggle arms through our coastlines?? Really?

PN Balji, former veteran Straits Times editor just said the same thing in his FB. It's very difficult for terrorists to inflict that kind of damage here. They whack NY, Paris, Madrid and prob any cities in Indonesia.. Etc. Singapore is too difficult to penetrate. Maybe biological or air borne stuff can damage Singapore but teams of terrorists with guns and explosives? They will be caught well before they step 10 steps into Singapore.

Yes, you don't need guns; you need a group of fanatics who are willing to sacrifice themselves and are willing to go to the extreme in achieving that objective.They maybe verse in technologies or they even rely on basic stuff to create the level of mayhem. But is anyone willing to take that chance.

If you observe the outsourced security staff in the airport and our uniformed boys and girls on duty. They do not instill any sense of security or confidence ; to the locals, they are just show pieces .

It is a real concern where national security is involved; no one can take it for granted.

Ah Hao walked across the causeway after giving CID detectives the slip at prata shop.

a msian siao dingdong drove around the island for 2 days before being caught for other offences although she drove thru ICA customs without proper documentation.

despite being so strict, it still possible to buy heroin in sinigapore.

didn't one bank employee recently jailed for bring BB guns from Thailand and use it to shoot at ATBs.

ICA border controls can only strict at airport. How the fuck can ICA monitor the hundred of thousands motorbikes that cross the causeway and secondlink everyday. everyone bring one round of ammo, one day already 100k rounds.

don't be naïve to believe Singapore very secure. you know what is the basic material to make an IED? you produce some everyday too.:rolleyes:

As much as I despise the fact that terrorism threat is always used by Pap to buy votes, the threat from a few siaolangs is real. Just look at the senseless bombings at Bali in 2002 and you can get the grim picture.

Terrorists are everywhere so it will not be impossible that they will attack us also. But hoping it wont happen to us at all.

Should be a piece of cake for these terrorists. S'pore is an attractive target given our ties with the US and Israel.

LHL bought his insurance already by warning S'poreans. If kena, he is spot on. If dont, he will take credit.

Singapore is spending her defence expenditure in the WRONG PLACES in preparing for an outdated conventional war against a non existent hostile enemy invasion force from the north or south. What happened to Singapore in WW2 is UNLIKELY to recur again not because of NS deterrence but because the ideology of warfare has changed.

All the super expensive big ticket items like F15, Stealth ships, subs, Leopard Tanks etc and a humongous large 500,000 conscript army interupting/disrupting the educational pursuits and economic activities of our male youths are TOTALLY INEFFECTIVE in dealing against a terrorist's attack similar to Parisian night of terror.

An elite professional counter terrorism unit supported by a well oiled intelligence dept akin to MOSSAD is urgently needed. The greatest enemy of the Islamic terror groups like ISIS, Al Qaeda, Hamas, Hezbollah etc is Israel BUT we do not hear of any of these groups launching a successful attack on any Israeli city like what happened in Paris or the Twin Towers in New York!

Already happened before, someone with a screw driver threatened a NSF on guard duty who quickly surrendered his weapon.
All the KuNiang in SPF hid in an ambulance when threatened by unarmed FT Indians in Little India Riots that more FT Gurkhas had to come to their rescue.

So often MIA famous PM LHL knows the ineffectiveness of his own security cockup forces beforehand that he is preparing his DAFT SINKIES to be psychologically ready when SH*T Hits the fan in a terrorist attack.
