Like many, you had only want to see the peace and safety on the surface and had refuse to see what could be coming, taking all calmness for granted.

There are many reasons why MINDEF budget was increased, but for the likes of you who does not have any form of competent understanding, explaining to you is not worth the moment.

All we little people only know how to talk cock huh? Unlike sage we know more than you small fries will ever know and it's a waste of my precious time in which I spend a not inconsiderable amount of in forums to ever feel the need to define my views when I'm on my high horse type!

Ad hominem. I suppose it makes sense for Singapore to increase its defense spending but for Taiwan to decrease theirs. Perhaps it's worth asking if Singapore has its priorities misplaced. But as you've said, it's usually not worth replying to those who do not possess any form of competent understanding, even if they pretend that others but not themselves are the afflicted ones.
