Serious Redneck Sinkie Wants All Kids To Learn Anti-Terror Tactics In School

Government officials have repeatedly said that it is not whether there will be a terror attack in Singapore but, rather, when a terror attack will take place.

With "lone wolf" attacks on the rise, one could happen at any time in Singapore. What if an attacker strikes a school here?

Most Singaporean male adults have undergone military training and would know what to do in the event of a terrorist attack.



Should not our schools be teaching our young what they should do if there is an attack, just like all Japanese children are taught how to react when an earthquake happens?


I urge our Education and Defence ministries to to come up with plans to educate our children.

Hold regular real-life drills so that students get a first-hand feel of a "terror attack". The children must know what it feels like and become familiar with the plans.


Some parents may feel that doing this could traumatise their children.

I would ask those parents - Do we want our children to live in a "germ free" fantasy world or let them learn the hard truth and be prepared for it?

SCGS girls can zao geng and scare terrorists off with their green shorts.

Any terrorist who thinks is going to attack from an angle previously unused. They've done too many bombings, suicide style, that it will not be used. If the terrorist were to attack Peesai, it will be something totally new. For example, poisoning the water supply, sabotaging power lines, disrupting crucial services. Can be so many ways they can strike. This being so, how is the city-state going to prepare for it? Food sources at supermarkets, wet markets? How are they going to protect all of them? Medical supplies at hospitals? Drinking water sources? Good luck to your defences. Good luck to the citizens. Pray that the terrorist won't be interested in sabotaging Peesai. Make peace is the best solution.

Cheers!
