But now this guy is promoted. So what gives?
The 48-year-old senior police officer seemed beleaguered at various points yesterday as the committee peppered him with questions, often cutting him off as he tried to answer.
At times, he gave as good as he got, asking at one point: "Is the COI using information gathered over the last three months to evaluate my actions on that night?"
At another, Mr Tee asked him: "Was it a failure of you, or a failure of the whole system?"
DAC Lu replied: "Is the honourable member asking for an opinion or asking a question?"
Pressed on the inaction of his men, he said: "These are not two armies facing off, it was like fighting an insurgency so even if we wanted to shoot, shoot who?
"Stones were coming from behind people in the crowd," he added. "This would have been a totally different COI, asking different questions... (such as) why did you shoot without a clear line of sight?"

Deputy Assistant Commissioner (DAC) Lu Yeow Lim (above), the ground commander for the police during the Little India riot, came under intense scrutiny for his decision-making by the Committee of Inquiry on Tuesday.
The commander of Tanglin Police Division was the second incident manager and the highest-ranking officer at the scene.
DAC Lu's actions in the 30 minutes between his arrival and that of the Special Operations Command troops led a committee member, former police commissioner Tee Tua Ba, to say that he "made the problem worse

You angry that I debate with ckmpd? Sorry man.
Charlie, you are right. That was the event that changed SPF. Prior to that no scholars as old man wanted to tried and tested folks to rise thru the ranks. In the old days, 60s, 70s, 80s, the PC will go all the way to AC and entry level Inspector may not even advance.
After the 3 clowns were posted, it was heralded as proven talent introduced from SAF Scholar cadres. A few years later old man himself revealed that those who failed the SAF Wrangler scheme was sent to the Police and there was only 3 and all 3 were posted out together. MHA by then had come to come of this and refused further transfer and create their old Scholarship scheme. It however was hit and miss. 3 turned out to be outstanding, one from each of the first 3 batch . First one became am MP and runs his family business (loaded to the hilt, nice guy), Second guy will be your new PM and 3rd guy is watching over the country's entire security apparatus. There is 4th one and is groomed to be the next CP and he certainly will be streets ahead of previous scholar CPs.
Ask the SPF to reveal the resignation rate of entry level male non-scholar graduate Inspectors / ASP - it is close to 95% over 20 years.
The Little Indian Riot is the outcome of the rot.
As for the SAF, there is no opportunity to date to test them in a real life scenario unlike Little India. After the riots, one truly wonders if it is hollow shell with expensive toys. Its like the PRC Army that went into North Vietnam to teach them a lesson. In the end they were taught a lesson and quickly retreated. The Same with the Indian Army who were decimated by Tamil Tigers ( a rag tag bunch ) In Sri Lanka and retreated with their tails behind their back. And for that incursion, the PM was assassinated as payback.
In all the 3 countries, the state media and propaganda are notorious for their nationalistic fervour.

Fuck off...... Stupid shit.
Left sg just go.
Stop mocking Singaporean.
FUCK YOUR MOTHER phua cheebye
OK I will try to stop mocking Sinkies.
But I enjoy seeing you guys mock each other leh. LOL!
CP Tee was spot on. A few warning shots to the sky would have stablised the chaotic scene.
Could have earned a double promotion to SAC.

No, I am a loser dog and pathetic piece of shit.
Holy shit! You read me like a book.
Hahahaha! Don't be cruel Charlie. Everyone deserves an off day.
Yep that's him. Wonder who is that retarded chap in the other photo. Looks familiar but my memory is failing me. Can help me recall?
Not OMS not LMS. Can't recall name of award or bursary. Did journalism and another major if I recall rightly. Was JO previously.
Tee Tua Bah was told to tone down his aggressive stance by a very senior ex-cop who was then PS.
Shorty Tee is a useless piece of shit. I witnessed first hand how he panicked over a small case though that case made headlines worldwide. When compared to LI, that Kuching case at most 1% of LI and shorty shitted in his pants. What a clown!
I am a fair person. Lu did not come out of the LI in good shape. But at least this guy is a very hardworking officer. He doesn't 'siam' work and responsibilities.
If he had been involved in gang clashes as a teenager, maybe he would have made better decisions at LI.
Knowing him, I am quite certain he was not armed that night. For a condemned mata-Kia like me, I would have taken the gamble and fired, hoping to get promotion to Insp(2).
