A Frightening Experience

[TracyTan866]

Like that huh? Then whacking these 'threats' highly recommended.

the SPF can arrest them?

 

[GoldenDragon]

You see, they could send uneducated men to SAF, but not SPF, where learning and understanding laws, reading and writing reports are essential prerequisites.

Yes, that's true. SPF chaps have to fight fires everyday. Real incidents. Must be accountable to members of public. SAF? Just for show.

If you compare the average investigator, the SPF is miles ahead of the chaps in Provost, SIB, MSD, FSB etc.

 

[TracyTan866]

Small as Singapore is, I don't think it's possible. In sec. sch. boy scout camping days, me and some other adventurous boys swam from Pulau Ubin jetty to Johor shore happily, and swam back happily, no problem. No need passport.

your days sound exciting and interesting...nowadays, cant do it as too much sea traffic from Ubin to Changi and Johore

so many investigation and intelligence agencies during peacetime arhhh...duplication of work or not? looks like some dont have much to do on an average day. how to have so many cases to keep these people occupied?

 

[GoldenDragon]

SPF has many chio bus...

You must be joking!

 

[TracyTan866]

Small as Singapore is, I don't think it's possible to be fully patrolled.

patrolling is not feasible...how do bigger countries maintain surveillance and integrity of their borders

 

[GoldenDragon]

looks like what my bro said he did at BMT..SOC? he told me it was quite tiring

More comfortable if positioned the pouch behind. It hurts when placed in front!

 

[TracyTan866]

Unnecessary work is always created to justify one's existence. Yes, many CBLs - chobolans.

In the past, we got the assistance of an OKT to assist. He provided us the gal. Real chiobu. She was used to lure the suspect. It worked.

Not really. You can still do it easily. Not much increase in Johor Straits shipping traffic. Trouble is, the new generation of boys couldn't imagine attempting it under the new education system. I do agree, that's a dangerous adventure, don't do it unless you're sure you can survive it. When we did it in the boy scouts camp at Ubin, the most senior was sec. 4, what boy scouts called troop leader. There wasn't any adult teacher. I don't think such adventures will be allowed nowadays.

Not possible too. Look at the numbers of illegal immigrants in US. There's a difference between police patrol and military defense. In police patrol against illegal immigrants here and there, it's not possible to have a perfectly tight-knit net. In military defense against overall attack on the country, it's possible, deploy huge fleets of huge battleships and battalions around bordering sea and land borders as deterrent and defense to all-out war. But these are useless against a single swimmer unless he's so unlucky to be spotted and caught, very highly unlikely as the classic Chinese saying goes, to find a needle in the sea.

in other words, it is quite easy for an illegal person to land on SG shore?
