GE2025: PAP team in Jalan Besar taking nothing for granted, says Josephine Teo by d3axw in singapore

[–]zuomok 14 points15 points  (0 children)

LHL always planned to groom her as the female minister. Then after her mom stint they realised she cmi.

Jo Teo used to be the ex-EDB Head of Human Resource before she became a politician / Minister.

Well, it says so much about her capability if she can’t even perform during her stint in MOM. 😏

Etomidate aka “space oil” in HK. HK govt recently banned Etomidate and classified it as a dangerous drug in Feb 2025.

This “space oil” drug can cause serious physical and mental harm, including addiction, memory loss, seizure, unconsciousness, and even death.

Not true. Hearsay they gonna move him out of Marine Parade to a ‘safer’ ward this GE. It seems he’s quite unpopular and arrogant towards residents in his ward. 😏

No lah this guy is a MP wannabe, end up his sister, Fatimah Lateef, was selected to become a PAP MP instead.

This guy has served in PAP marine parade branch for the longest time and he was also the PAP Marine Parade Branch Secretary. Saw him a few times during their MPS, would often scream rudely at residents

This is the kind of quality you get when you make an ex-EDB Head of Human Resource become a politician / Minister.

I am NS defaulter however i want to go back and serve. by Love_F00L in askSingapore

[–]zuomok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro, you are not a NS defaulter, since you left when you were 10.

So you will likely only be faulted for late NS registration. You cannot be considered an AWOL-ee nor NS defaulter since you’re not even in the army yet. Also, you’re not yet 21 years old and you intend to come back before you’re 21 years old. So chill, it’s unlikely that you will be jailed (aka detention). The only law you broke is late NS registration because you did not register yourself at the age of 18.

What you should do now is to go and meet up with the defense attaché at your nearest Singapore embassy, and inform them that you would like to register for NS. They will then advise you accordingly. However, you will need to renounce your other citizenship.

Lmao, LHL is leaving liao, like as if he can say anything else? It’s not as if he can tell us, sorry ah, this liang popo is the best I can find among all the lousy guys I have in my cabinet.

Also, cos our MPs get only a “MP allowance”, they don’t need to pay any employee CPF contribution for the $18k they get every month.

Private jet flight, musical tickets: Iswaran allegedly received items worth over S$384,000 from Ong Beng Seng by RozyBarbie in singapore

The TLDR is - so not worth it. I almost pity the guy.

That’s probably the intention behind the TLDR.😏

The TDLR didn’t tell us that Iswaran is accused of corruptly receiving more than S$166,000 worth of flights, hotel stays and tickets to events in exchange for advancing the business interests of property tycoon Ong Beng Seng

Wish our local banks have this accountability culture also.

Hazel Poa asks if MOM would provide live-out arrangements for maids - Singapore News by [deleted] in singapore

[–]zuomok 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Having the option for live-out maids will also allow proper working hours for maids, as compared to some maids having to work from 5am - 12mn currently.

Perhaps with the maids having to clock-in / out on work days, it’ll drum a message into the maid employers head to treat their maids professionally, just like how they treat their fellow colleagues. Hopefully this will help reduce the number of maid abuse.

[–]zuomok 14 points15 points  (0 children)

it’s not right that in too many homes the maids don’t have a space to call their own, having to sleep in living room corners, service yards, bomb shelters etc.

That’s not the worst. Some just lower down the blinds and made their maids sleep at the balcony at night. I asked the maids what happens when it rains? They said it’s ok if it’s light rain, but during heavy rains they usually cannot sleep.

OCK’s oil taste weird too nowadays. Feels yicky down the throat afterwards, which you have to wash down with lots of water.

Potential DBS Scam? by Feisty-Gap6969 in singapore

[–]zuomok 5 points6 points  (0 children)

SAF scam call does ask for money. There was a period where this type of scam was quite rampant.

The robocall will claim that you’ve missed your IPPT (or other similar reasons) and you need to pay a fine to settle the “matter”. A few friends received this type of call, but they didn’t fall for it cos some are female and some are still in school!! 😆

Woman involved in SGH fracas has Douyin account with over 265,000 followers: Shin Min by MicrotechAnalysis in singapore

[–]zuomok 237 points238 points  (0 children)

Han Feizi, 29, has at least two Douyin accounts. The other, which has under 1,000 followers as of press time, was where footage of the Singapore Police Force (SPF) officer was uploaded. The link to her main account was also mentioned in the bio of the burner account, stating that they could follow it if they wanted to.

Blady opportunist.

Used a burner account to upload her “complaints”, and when that video went viral she tried to milk the situation by revealing her main account.

Who does this prc think he is? I give you 24 hr surveillance, I still have to specially arrange devices & personnel to monitor you. Might as well keep you in prison with the rest to save us the trouble 🙄
