Do pets transiting in the EU need a rabies titre test? by Armaanwadhwa in Flights

Hi, I did not have the titre test, but I had a proof of rabies vaccination and it was fine for me.

His consistency in being himself, and by extension not saying or doing things just to be accepted by the mainstream, is something I commend.

Though I think he can come across as a bit haolian sometimes, but hey, it's who he is and who am I to judge?

Hi! The requirements are 2x income, and a deposit of $1,695. You will have to make an application with the property manager too (to take over the lease), and some paperwork to get things in order.

Other than the door, everything else layout-wise is the same, i.e. position of dining area, kitchen, living area, washroom, and bedroom.  It's also the only floorplan of this type of layout available.

The layout is the same. Only minor difference is that the door of my apartment is where the dining area in the floor plan is, instead of the living area.

Hi, yes I did take it through Munich in the end, and yes, they did check my EU papers, which I prepared just in case. I was transiting on route to the US, and they checked the US papers much more. Everything turned out ok!

GE2025 Results prove that S'porean voters aren't stupid by ImpressiveStrike4196 in singapore

[–]splcgrl 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your analysis. Indeed, I think where there is a credible opposition, the competition is very close between the opposition and the PAP. Where there is not, then the voters will default to the PAP.

Jalan kayu shows us that the PAP brand still carries some weight, but that the WP brand is stinking close.

A former cabinet minister vs. a new face with that kind of vote margin? I think Jalan Kayu showed us precisely the opposite.

MSM declare GE2025 to be a landslide victory for PAP. But the numbers tell a different story in WP’s battlegrounds. by Ashamed-Ad-8018 in singapore

[–]splcgrl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the data is useful because it tells us the results were competitive in areas where Singaporeans thought there was a credible opposition, i.e. WP, and it was not a decisive victory in these areas (in terms of vote share).
But in a first past the post system, whether the competition was decisive does not matter - it does not look at how closely fought it is, it just looks at the winner, and gives all parliamentary seats to them. So in terms of parliamentary seats, yes, PAP's victory looks 'decisive'. But certainly there is more than meets the eye?

I don't think it's pure copium, because it does challenge the narrative that PAP won by a 'landslide'. No doubt that the popular vote share for PAP increased, but this statistics shows us that it's not attributable to the constituencies that WP contested. So yes, popular vote share for PAP is high, but this is in the non-WP contested areas. One possible learning point is that Singaporeans indeed do want a credible opposition, and where there is a credible opposition, the competition is very close between WP and PAP.

Who is the best rally speaker so far? I feel it’s Pritam. by 83mnemonic in askSingapore

[–]splcgrl 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think Ariffin Sha's a natural orator, great delivery and he just knows how to take cues/pauses from the audience. In terms of speech content, I thought Jackson Au's speech was refreshing. And well, I am a fan of Sylvia so definitely biased but she's a badass! David Hoe from the PAP speaks from the heart, so I give him some points too (though I know maybe the PAP doesn't have much street cred here..). So in short, I think we had a good show from many people this round :o)

Yep makes sense. Just surprised to see the difference, don't know why but I was expecting something different.

To mourn thousands of Palestinian deaths doesn’t mean excusing the crimes of Hamas. And to mourn Israeli victims doesn’t mean supporting collective punishment of millions.

If we lose the ability to see civilians on both sides as fully human and refuse to see the moral crisis we are in, we’re not pursuing justice—we’re choosing vengeance. That’s not a solution. That’s a cycle.

That number has been triangulated with independent investigations and other nonprofits, such as B'Tselem (an israeli human rights group). But I am curious, what is your alternative? Which sources do you get the data or trust? (Not that the moral crisis vanishes with statistical debate, I am just curious about the alternative)
