Since he has savings that can last him for about 6 years... he already has a plan. There is no need to worry.

For our dear leader ... if he were to die of influenza (touchwood! ), it can still be explicable because it is quite normal, but to die from covid 19 is a shame ( you are really a wood! ) when you already know the whole world is staging lockdown to contain its spread.

None of the ministers especially our good PM wants to be infected. We can't take any chance. Even if it is 0.06% mortality rate, we cannot be 100% sure that our dear ministers will not be in the mortality list if infected.

It worries me that this is the calibre of the 4G leadership. Is it better not to say anything stupid when you are not prepared ? It is a lame excuse that he said he was not sleeping well and so made the mistake of saying cotton comes from sheep. What next ... cow drink milk ?

I actually suspect that the coronavirus strain may have mutated to an extent that it has now become a normal kind of flu virus with little lethal effects except for those who have underlying medical conditions. The statistics bear this out. 31,068 infection cases, 23 deaths or about 0.07% death...

In a crisis, leadership is of paramount importance. If the leader of the country cannot lead the country out of the crisis, he is not doing his fiducial responsibility as a leader. Worst, if the crisis gets worsened by indecision or wrong decision by the leader. So, it is natural and even right...

Agree... What it shows is that the government does not have a united position on the CB measures and in particular how to handle the migrant worker 's community spread. Jo is trying to protect herself obviously by denying that the infection is no big deal. Imagine if this is the number of...

If that is the logic, we should stop the testing and let the migrant workers roam free. It is contradictory to say it is not alarming while at the same time, confine the migrant workers to quarantine. Why waste the time and efforts to do all these wasteful activities ?

The fact remains .. there is a high number of infection cases in the FWs whether you test them or not... That reality cannot change. By hiding your head in the sand doesn't hide the reality that the virus pandemic has already infected the migrant community.

It belies the fact that there is no coherent strategy to tackling the coronavirus pandemic in Singapore. At first, the government said no need to wear mask. Now, you get a fine if you don't. At first, they said that this is just a mild flu. No need to panic. Now, they lock down the economy. At...

That is my point. How did the infection continue to spread like wildfire in the dormitories ? Either they heck care about the virus or get themselves infected knowingly so that they can get free benefits without having to work. They must have figured that the virus will not kill them for they...

Something is not right. If you compare the FWs and local residents infection cases chart , one is hovering at hundreds for weeks and the other is declining to tens. I don't mean to stereotype and it is also not because I have no compassion for the migrant workers, but I have nagging suspicion...

I am beginning to wonder if there is a possibility that there are more than one strain of coronavirus and that the current test kit is not able to distinguish the different strains. My hypothesis is that the virus that first originated from Wuhan, China is the most lethal strain and kills more...

The question is did PAP know this before the outbreak and do something about it ? Or this is a hind-sight findings ?

Her violation of the rules of the circuit breakers premises on her belief that she thinks she is sovereign. For people who think that they can violate the rules because of their "sovereignty " beliefs, then they should be in the place where the rules of the place are in line with their...

If you ask me, what he will do with his $137 billion of cash on hand, the contrary move to shunning the travel industry will be the medical industry... anything to protect people's lives. That 's where he will put his money in ... and it is going to be a big one.

It is better to err on the side of caution. There may come a second wave or even a third wave. If we lose our guard , somewhere , somehow , the infection will re-emerge and manifest itself in a particular spot where nobody cares about social distancing and virus containment. For this, I think...

Going by Warren Buffet's move, if he shuns the travel industry , he must believe that the covid 19 is here to stay for a while. That the coronavirus will continue its path of destruction to the travel industry as long as a vaccine is not available. I can't blame him or Charles Munger for the...

Life will not go back to pre-covid normal after the lockdown. Until a vaccine is available , most people will avoid travel , dining and entertainment. It does tell us something about life. That it is fragile. We are not our captain of our fate. We are at the mercy of mother nature. We will die...

Despite all the data on infection cases and death numbers due to covid-19, few understand the lethality of the virus. There are 2 camps. One camp thinks that covid 19 is nothing more than a flu albeit a more contagious one. There is nothing to be afraid of. Life can go on, but the more...
