Pirate incident exposes RSN as incompetent

[Papsmearer]

I can only conclude that the RSN Gallant only observed at a distance because they were fearful that if they were too close, they might get boarded by the pirates, and the crew get raped.

Drone only for land use? In particular,hougang ,aljunied GRC and punggol east?

Sea scout at best. Our navy is to prevent people from leaving, to track if they have outstanding CPF due,unpaid taxes, fines and summons.

They did not just run away. They were "scared off" see? That's a big difference.

Reminded me of the following:

"This was not just flooding. They were "ponding" see ? That's a big difference." See ?

 

[Confuseous]

How did the PAP press reporter know that the pirates were 'scared off'?
If that was true, then the RSN must be in cahoots with the pirates.

Along the way to the printers, the word "seemingly" fell off the page.

they were waiting for the ambulance ship to arrive, just in case they needed to take refuge when things go awry.

Maximum restraint la.

Alamak Navy should co-ordinate with the Army to send their Apache helicopter
with all the fire power and speed they should reach Tioman in no time,
however Tioman belongs to Malaysia, if our chopper flies there than its intrusion of
air space, our Nayv and Army got to seek approval from Malaysian side.

So Malaysia what are you doing when pirates attack in your water??

 

[steffychun]

where were our magic toy stealth frigates? Buy time don't use. Instead have to send old boats.

Pirates have stolen around 700,000 litres of diesel fuel (worth approximately $434,000) from the ‘MT Ai Maru’ oil tanker some 31 nautical miles east of Tanjung Sedili off Johor, Malaysia, the Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency (MMEA) said on Sunday. The vessel was en route from Singapore to Cambodia.

MT Ai Maru

The hijacking was said to had been carried out by a group of seven pirates who boarded the tanker from a speedboat. The fuel was pumped out in around three hours and a half to another vessel while, as the tanker’s captain claimed, “the crew was locked in a room while he had been ordered to steer the ship by a group armed with machetes and a gun,” Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency’s statement read.

The pirates are believed to had been scared off by Malaysian Navy patrol vessels causing them to flee to nearby islands.

All the crew including the captain are safe, but have been subjected to an investigation by MMEA so as to check their potential involvement in the robbery since such scenarios have been common over the recent period.

According to Nexus Maritime Security this is the sixth hijacking in SE Asia since April.

hahaha.....the retarded empty vessel is at it again....
the incident happened in Malaysian waters.....
RSN responded to provide standby assistance to RMN when requested....(the idiot thinks singapore is in charge of Malaysia also)...
the pirates fled to neighbouring islands.....hence Malaysian authorities can follow-up if they want...

a lot of these so called pirates/hijacks in Malaysian/Indon waters are done in collusion with the ships crew and also govt officials.....
the empty vessel is also a typical frog in the well who think he knows a lot.....
truly retarded..
