Terrorism

31st May is a public holiday for Singapore. So i decided to take a leave for one day on the 1st of June. That is the first time i go back to Malaysia (selangor and pahang to be precised) since i worked here.

Actually what i want to talk is about Singapore action to prevent terrorism. Singapore really aware and alert about terrorism. Maybe this is because they surrounded by muslim country (malaysia and indonesia). Singapore Custom and Checkpoint Authority very concern about Malaysian that want to enter Singapore. So they put scanner in both causeway and Tuas checkpoint. They also put Gurkha soldier there. Compare to malaysia checkpoint, we can just show our passport and without checking our luggage.

One more thing is, when i arrive from JB to Kranji MRT station, there's always a security officer watching passenger that comes to the station. I get back from JB with a big luggage, the officer ask me to open my bag to check my luggage. My friend also have to do so. What i saw is he only check malay passenger with heavy luggage. Chinese, indian or other races with heavy luggage can go in without checking. Ermmm..that show their caution for malay or muslim to be precised. In MRT station, they also show terrorist alert ads. The ads show how to recognized terrorist with bomb in their bag...huhu...

But that is good for a country like Singapore. A country that have a good relationship with America. Last saturday, their ISD (Internal Security Department) caught a muslim lawyer and put him in ISA. That man was recognized as JI (Jemaah Islamiyah) member that have a training in middle east.
