Singapore also not free from Political Tsunami

Singaporeans are naive to imagine that red dot was SAFE from everything.

Actually none of these myths are true. Already Singapore got SARS, felt earthquakes and evacuated from high buildings. HDB flats had exploded many times. Terrorist escaped from ISD. Any unimaginable things are all possible in Singapore. It is just naive and silly to think of Singapore being safe.

Stupid myths kiss my ass!

Expert says Singapore not completely immune from tsunamis
Channel NewsAsia
Channel NewsAsia - Sunday, September 21

SINGAPORE — Singapore is not completely immune from a tsunami and should prepare for the possibility, an expert on coastal areas warned Friday.

The island—state can be hit by a tsunami generated from three locations and the waves could damage key coastal infrastructure without being too high, said Professor Wong Poh Poh of the National University of Singapore geography department.

"It’s not that we are totally immune. No, we are not immune," Wong said.

He was speaking at a news conference to launch a report, by the aid and development organisation World Vision, on the impact of climate change on poor people.

To cause damage, waves hitting Singapore need not be as huge as the ones that devastated Indonesia’s Aceh in December 2004, killing 168,000 people, Wong said.

Aceh was struck by a wave about 10 metres (33 feet) high.

"We don’t need 10 metres. The problem with Singapore is... we have a lot of infrastructure on the coast. All you need is a very low wave to just come in and hit certain areas," he said.

"Changi Airport will be very vulnerable," he said, adding the man—made island of Jurong which houses a sprawling petrochemical complex is also at risk, and urged the government to commission a study on tsunamis. — AFP/vm

Want tusnami in Singapore is easy. Just detonate together several nuclear warheads in the seas near Singapore that's it. Istana will also be flooded. Fish will be found on HDB void decks - or may be even upstairs.

Singaporeans will be hit by falling trees first rather than by tsunamis.

They are so dumb that they don't even know how to prune trees *.

They stress the trees too much by frequent pruning **.

They are probably using the wrong pruning methods.




* done by cheap foreign workers under their charge
** due to outsourcing by National Parks. I suspect the commercial operators are doing it to fulfill certain pruning frequency obligations under the contracts.
