Why should we be concerned with things that we can't do anything about? Unless you want to give up ur full time job and go for a MSK hunt?

Let's be practical and do things that affect our daily lives instead.

So MSK is gone, our Gahmen can teh gong teh siao pretend these things never happen before. Good strategy! Soon we will too forget where is MSK and who is MSK. Media will stop broadcasting.

And some of us may have forgotten two prisoners trying to escape from the Court due to security blunder. Complacency in Airport immigration. All these will become a legend rather than a history.

Where is MSK ?

Still, I wish MSK selamat hari raya aidil fitri.

We may never know what happened to MSK.

Unless, someone accountable shows the people with solid evidence what happened to him.

I hope foreigners coming here for F1 are not aware that a TERRORIST LEADER is on the LOOSE after a LAPSE of security in the HIGH SECURITY DC .

I hope they enjoy their stay here. But the top of my wish list is that they SPEND as much as they possibly can here.

The ultimate wish is that they all consider migrating here based on the impression they get from the super unbiased news.

Can I confirm the word propegandar does not exist in MSM?

either a yes or a no. After answering that, which is it and which is not.

So many months.. my Mas poster is now covered and pasted over by F1 poster liao leh..

SO after F1 everybody forget about MAS and celebrate F1 is it ?

I calculate liao...

100,000 pax per day at F1 event.

3 day event = 300,000

40% estimated are foreigners = 120,000

Spending power of each foereigners estimate $300

Total expenditure income influx into Singapore = $36,000,000

GST 7% of $36,000,000 = $2,520,000

OK.. GST generate over the 3 day F1 event is enough to cover 2 of MAS's head and still have $520,000 to party !

We can let MAS go scot-free lah....

I hope the high integrity man of honesty WKS come out and tell the nation, the status of MSK , dead or alive.

I am sure such man of integrity will do the most respectable thing a man can do.

He is so clean and honest and integrity. Whiter than White. Everyone believes, I believe. At least the majority believes, I believe.

When Singapore’s terrorist leader escaped from high-security detention two months ago, he could not possibly have foreseen the political repercussion that he was leaving behind.

It has given Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong his worst political headache since he took office nearly four years ago.

The saga of the Jemaah Islamiah leader’s escape from the Whitley Detention Centre has moved beyond security concern and the negative international image.

It has raised doubts on government accountability in Singapore and revisited the unpopular issue of high cabinet pay by raising questions like: -

-- How damaging to the nation must a government mistake be before a cabinet minister – who is paid more than the US president – is held responsible?

-- Must punishment, however serious the mistake, be applicable only to the civil servants or the foot soldiers – but not the political leader who is responsible for overall planning?

This dilemma began with a government-appointed committee report revealing a list of incredible bungles and neglect by the Home Affairs Ministry, which is in overall charge of the Centre.

A “confluence of factors” or “lapses” is how the report calls the mistakes that allowed JI leader, Mas Selamat Kastari, to climb out of a toilet window and flee in his underwear. Two months later, he’s still at large.

Mas Selamat is no ordinary criminal, but leader of a terror network who was trained in Afghanistan. He had plotted to crash a commercial plane into Changi Airport as well as blow up foreign embassies.

Minister mentor Lee Kuan Yew has said that if he succeeds in fleeing to Indonesia, he may return to carry out his bombing threats.

And the Whitley Detention Centre is a tiny version of America’s Guantanamo, which houses all the terrorist suspects in Singapore.

His escape presented PM Lee with a tough choice: Either ditch the minister responsible as widely demanded by the public – or defend him.

He chose to support a party colleague, who is also Deputy Prime Minister, and go against public opinion.

PM Lee stated that ministers should not be automatically removed for lapses down the line. This came as a surprise to a generation of Singaporeans raised under his father’s strict governance.

Pm Lee said his government would not encourage a culture where ministers resign whenever things go wrong on their watch, whether or not they are actually to blame.

By downgrading ministerial responsibility, he may have established a new principle of governance for Singapore that differs from other countries’.

Many nations in Europe and Asia (from Britain to Japan and South Korea) hold their leaders or cabinet ministers liable for a major blunder, either by sacking or allowing them to resign.

The response of Singaporeans over the Internet has predictably been very negative with some accusing him of double standards – one rule for ministers and another for the civil service.

An online poll on whether Home Affairs Minister Wong Kan Seng should be sacked showed a 94% ‘yes’ vote, with only six per cent disagreeing.

But Lee was adamant. “That would be the easy way out. It may temporarily appease an angry public, but it will not fundamentally solve the problem,” he said.

The result has been a transfer of some of the political heat from the Home Affairs Minister to the Prime Minister.

The critics complain that since ministers are paid super-high wages pegged to the top private sector, Lee should also hold them to the same standards of accountability.

Said Workers' Party chief Low Thia Khiang, "In the corporate world, when something goes wrong, heads that roll would include the CEO's. Here, when something goes wrong, we talk about honest mistakes."

Even government backbencher Inderjit Singh (Ang Mo Kio) drew the same conclusion.

"We have adopted a reward system that matches that of the private sector, that we pay everyone as high as possible,” he said. “Therefore, people expect that when you make a mistake, you will be appropriately punished."

The pressure for accountability is so strong and widespread that some observers believe that Lee’s defence of Wong will not stand beyond the next election in three years time.

“In a one-man-one-vote system, no prime minister is silly enough to stand in front of a tidal electoral wave,” said a newspaper reporter. “Wong is a big political liability and will have to go.”

Some observers believe this will happen after a decent interval with Wong being transferred out of Home Affairs before 2011.

In a cabinet reshuffle on Mar 29, a month after Selamat’s escape, Lee appointed Mr. K. Shanmugam as Law Minister - as well as Second Minister for Home Affairs.

This was seen as preparation for Wong’s eventual replacement in case Lee decides to make the change.

The public criticism rages on over the websites with newspapers’ letters pages remaining largely silent.

“Singaporeans with half a brain will know it is less about being different from other countries, but more about protecting their own kind - the tight-knit network of elites who run this country,” Gerald Giam wrote in his blog,

Kelvin Tong added: “In my view, PM Lee failed to see one point: Singapore ministers are the highest paid in the world. Logically speaking, the echelon of accountability has to be higher in tandem, no?”

Robert Teh wrote, “This is truly world's best leadership - just watch the charisma of a leader explaining all the faults in his prison windows as caused by other junior officers - not his own ministry.”

Against public feelings, Prime Minister retains his Home Affairs Minister despite blunders that let terrorist leader to escape - at least until the next election.

SINGAPORE : Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong is confident the country's Internal Security Department (ISD) will prove itself again, especially in light of new security challenges, like those arising from the influx of foreigners into Singapore.

He is also confident that the department will get over the escape of Jemaah Islamiyah detainee, Mas Selamat Kastari.

Does this mean he is allowing ISD to let it past and forget all about MSK?
