(S'pore closes in on HK’s population, tops 6m 1st time)

This increase in S'pore’s population was largely driven by non-residents, including foreign workers and international students. Total population rose 2% from a year ago to touch 6.04 mil as of June, mainly to 5% growth in number of non-residents to 1.86 million – a group includes foreign workers’ dependents and international students, according report released on Tuesday.
Citizen numbers increased 0.7% to 3.64 million, permanent residents climbed 1.2% to 0.54 million.

S’porean teen influenced by far-right held by ISD, he wanted to attack Muslims in a mosque. On Feb 10, ISD said it had issued an order of detention under the Internal Security Act (ISA) against Lee in December 2024. ISD also issued a restriction order to Singaporean housewife Hamizah Hamzah, 56, in January, and arrested Malaysian cleaner Saharuddin Saari, 34, in November 2024.

Hamizah and Saharuddin were self-radicalised supporters of Islamist militant and terrorist organisations. ISD said Lee grew hostile towards Muslims in early 2023 after seeing Islamophobic and far-right extremist content on social media. He spent several hours a day consuming extremist content online, and repeatedly watched live-streamed video footage of Tarrant’s attacks. Soon, Lee started role-playing as Tarrant in a violent online simulation game.

Without naming the game, ISD said Lee downloaded video game modifications so that he could pretend to be Tarrant killing Muslims at the Al Noor Mosque in Christchurch – one of the mosques Tarrant had attacked. By early 2024, Lee believed it would be justified to kill Malays and Muslims, and other ethnicities such as Mexicans, African-Americans, Indians and Jews. Calling himself an “East Asian supremacist”, Lee believed in the superiority of Chinese, Korean and Japanese ethnicities, and supported white supremacy as he felt Islam was a threat to white culture.

He was deeply convinced by the Great Replacement Theory, which claims white people in Western countries are in danger of being replaced by non-white immigrants. Said ISD: “(Lee) believed that violent action had to be taken to prevent the Chinese majority in Singapore from being supplanted by what he perceived to be a rapidly growing Malay population.”

He wanted to start a “race war” between Chinese and Malays, and instigated others to attack Malays and Muslims by propagating discriminatory rhetoric on a social media account. Self-radicalisation a key threat to S’pore: 7 takeaways from ISD report. ISD said Lee wanted to carry out attacks against Muslims in Singapore with other far-right individuals he had met online.Said ISD: “While he claimed to lack the courage to conduct an attack alone, he admitted that he would have participated in attacks together with his online contacts.”

Apart from a Tarrant-style attack using homemade weapons like guns and knives, ISD said Lee considered throwing Molotov cocktails at his Muslim neighbours during a religious holiday. He searched online about how to make a Molotov cocktail but did not take any further steps. ISD said Lee did not have a timeline to carry out the attacks, and investigations into his online contacts did not reveal any imminent threat to Singapore. His family, teachers and schoolmates were unaware of his radicalisation. Lee a third S'porean radicalised by far-right extremist ideologies to be dealt with under the ISA. Nick Lee ordered T-shirts with custom prints of logos associated with neo-Nazi supremacist & far-right groups. In Dec 2020, a 16-year-old S'porean boy who planned terrorist attacks at two mosques here was detained under ISA. Secondary 4 student was also self-radicalised from watching Tarrant’s attacks.

Another Secondary 4 student who considered himself a white supremacist after being radicalised by far-right extremist propaganda, and planned to carry out attacks overseas, was handed a restriction order in January 2024.ISD said far-right extremism is a growing security concern globally, and Singapore is not immune to this threat. Though such ideologies are often associated with white supremacy, ISD said its broader messages promoting ethno-religious chauvinism, racism and xenophobia can still appeal to non-whites.

Noting that the three cases so far involved youths, ISD said: “Youths may be more susceptible to such ideologies and may gravitate towards the sense of belonging and identity that far-right movements appear to provide.” ISD said it will take firm action against anyone in Singapore who supports, promotes or prepares to undertake armed violence. It added that it is also critical to guard against hate speech and divisive rhetoric that could threaten the Republic’s multiracial and multi-religious society.

In 2022, the United Nations Office of Counter-Terrorism flagged its concern about extremists using video games to recruit youth by presenting their ideology in an immersive format. It said the extremists developed modifications for popular video games, such as a map that allows players to experience the Christchurch massacre in both The Sims and Minecraft and create white ethnostates in Roblox. In January 2023, a 16-year-old student in Singapore, who joined several Roblox servers with virtual worlds that replicated conflict zones occupied by terror group ISIS, was issued a restriction order.

Minister-in-charge of Muslim Affairs Masagos Zulkifli wrote in a Facebook post on Feb 10 that the actions taken by ISD were a timely reminder that Singapore cannot take its racial and religious harmony for granted. Mr Masagos, who is also Minister for Social and Family Development, wrote: “The social harmony that we have today did not come about by chance. It is the result of many decades of our hard work to foster peace and security in Singapore together. He urged S'poreans to be united, and alert the authorities quickly if they think someone they know or observe may be radicalised. ISD reminded the public to remain vigilant towards signs of radicalisation in people around them, which include: Frequently surfing radical websites. Posting/sharing extremist views on social media platforms, such as expressing support/admiration for terrorists/terrorist groups the use of violence. Sharing extremist views with friends & relatives. Expressing intent to participate in acts of violence overseas or in S'pore and/or Inciting others to participate in acts of violence.

As other born poor Singaporeans like you have became RICH with wife and kids, thanks to PAP policies that you find detrimental to your well being

You are an idiot to think that housing and education are the reasons why Singaporeans are not getting married

Because HDB BTO public housing is FREE FOR A LIFETIME + NET PROFITS

And school fees up to Sec 4 are NEGLIGIBLE, I know because I have raised 3 kids, 2 NUS graduates, one Sec 4 this year

While I was unemployed since Feb 2004 after I got retrenched at age 42

You should go down on your knees to suck my dick to get some of my DNA into your brain

So that you can think like me and be a WINNER instead of a WHINNER to enjoy a HAPPY and PROSPEROUS life, thanks to PAP

I know how you can turn your miserable life around, get married, buy a HDB home of your own, have kids and be HAPPY like me now

Ono, there will be "WINNER" too and instead of just a "WHINNER" to enjoy for all Singaporean voters, "a HAPPY and PROSPEROUS life", all thanks to PAP...PM Wong.

S'PORE –Workers’ Party (WP) chief Pritam Singh, who $14,000 for lying to a parliamentary committee, will not lose his seat & be disqualified from standing in upcoming general election, said the Elections Dept (ELD) on Feb 17.


Disqualification from being an MP under the Constitution is based on the sentence imposed for a single offence, the ELD said in its reply to The Straits Times’ request for comment.

This means that if a person is charged with multiple offences and the sentence imposed for each of those offences does not reach the disqualification threshold of imprisonment for a term of not less than one year or a fine of not less than $10,000, the person is not disqualified from being an MP, it said

Those who are working and living on current salary scale can easily cope with the rapid rising cost of living. Those who are unemployed and those retired and living on past savings will find it very tough living in this most expensive city in the world.  So life has not improved for everyone as PAP claimed looking down from their ivory tower and seeing only part of the big picture.  

Life certainly improved alot for the Ridout bros. Imagine living in such a huge palace with swimming pool that can be seen from a satellite, not to mention being able to net $88 million from the sale of your bungalow yet raising your standard of living to astronomical levels simultaneously. Life is good and has improved by leaps and bounds indeed!
