Wow..our Security-guard Minister Shanmugam meets up with 曹忠明大使 yesterday (7 Aug)  and this is not even reported on our MSM today ???  Big Grin


今天很高兴与新加坡国家安全统筹部长兼内政部长尚穆根见面，并就双边关系和执法安全合作进行深入交流。期待以建交35周年为契机，加强各领域务实合作，推动中新全方位高质量的前瞻性伙伴关系进一步发展。

The last time when ST reports about China ambassador in SG is nearly a year ago. This says something about some of our Media people who seems unconnected with our largest trade partner.  Big Grin

I know "莱道路26号和31号" is Ridout Road #26 & #31 and there were countless interesting discussion in the Chinese speaking world about this juicy news of 2023...  

However, I am sure this was not one of the agenda during Ambassador Cao's & Minister Shammuganm meet up Big Grin

Quote: China also on Saturday expressed strong dissatisfaction with local media reports alleging the UNC3886 group, believed to be behind recent cyberattacks in Singapore, is linked to China, citing claim of a cybersecurity firm of certain country. The embassy reiterated its firm opposition to such baseless smears.

Two days after Chinese embassy made public about meeting Shanmugam,  I still see ZERO report about the meeting in our MSM from CNA to ST to Mothership.

In fact, this "UNC 3886 cyber attack" is like totally no mentioned liao..

WHY AH ?  Big Grin

Shanmugam should resign from his ministry position. Nothing but a disgrace to Singapore with his BS remarks.

He is probably the last 3rd gen minister still around under PM Wong's cabinet.

I can't wait for him to be replaced as his existence in Parliament continue to remind me of the dark and yet to be resolved Oxley Saga, which he is intimately involved.
