JI Leader Mas Selamat Escaped From Detention Centre
-
I think current sg has not have experience with street riots, city level violence , bombs and natural disasters .
yes on paper we have home team and many teams.
but this incidents serves to show that sg needs to be more on high alert than it is reported to be or impressed upon to be or is thought to be. dun be mistaken by me. i think sg is very very secure but then how to exprain this escape? not a 7-11 thief escape but a TERRORism related kinda escape.
i think some clear expranationes need to be released by the press and live interviews on national tv need to be aired for all to see, question and demand for answers.
we need to give foreigners and investors an impression that it is safe and that ours highly renumerated leaders of the world record calibre need to show what they are made of to stand the test of 'fire' that is this incident and they need to again re-create to the world the impression that this tiny little single city country is safe and not like other terror-infested regions. and all citizens expect nothing than the best at world class level the handling of this shocking and terrorizing incident. and rightly so.
all our interests is at stake and I like to see some world record effort put to repair the damage (commerce, stocks, shares, investments, sentiments, business, tourism etc) that is done not just to the leaders but also most important of all the PEOPLE. our reputation is at stake. when we go over the seas, how to face the foreigners ? i for now will not say where I come from.
I URGE. I ENCOURAGE. I HOPE. the people responsible for sg security and image and terrorism do your due diligence and repair this damage pronto. the cost may be too great! act now!

i also think that its time all our so-called schoolars and schoolarstic recipiones put their brains together to fix this problem. i gawd great confidonce these bright brains and above normal standard talented talents can repair the damage.
its time for them to show their capability which i of course surely think they have lor.

Ya correct they should immediately fix the security problems instead of spending time fixing the opposition. PM lee pls wake up, and fix the problem, our international standing, reputation has been tainted by this incident. Now the terrorist is at large, tourists dare not come to singapore, F1 spectators will decrease, foreign investment dare not come in due to not secure, YOG is uncertain, economic will go down..........many more
-
i heard soldiers are sent to help fight terror overseas.
i hope these soldiers of sg do not need to sacrifice their lives.
sending them is 1 thing. those at the frontline are the ones sacrificing and taking the risks.
i salute them. hope no casualties.

There must have been one security lapse arfter another at the Whitley Detention Centre, which allowed Mas to simply make a sudden decision to break out.
After the breakout was discovered, it was odd that the Authorities did not consider making the situation public and sought public assistance to watch out for him unitl more then 24 hours later.
It was sheer stupidity to conduct the manhunt in a limited area12 hours after the escape, and limited the search to an area south of the Whitley Detention Centre.
How was a limpining man suppose to cross a busy 8 lane PIE at 4.05 p.m.- from the Police Academy side to the opposite side of the PIE ?
Thursday news on TV reported the search at the residential area around Chancery Lane to the Whitley section of the PIE - over a period of more then 20 hours since the jail break on Wednesday.
Did no one consulted the Commandos to find out what they will do to survive and evade capture under the same circumstances ?
The cordon should have gone around the entire area bounded by Thomson Road, Newton Road, Dunearn Road, Lornie-Adam Road - and a simultaneous search of the entire area that will include construction sites and drain culverts.
The public should have been informed immediately, and not alerted 20 hours later.
The cocept of ''TOTAL DEFENSE'' failed.
i think mas didn't "simply make a sudden decision to break out". he must have been observing the security procedure and found the lapses then later made his escape.
it is not more than 24 hours or 12 hours later but 4 hours later that public was informed and the search conducted. i was travelling along malcom park when i heard the news over radio and saw police along the road.

but in a multi-tier organization like the police.... asking the minister to resign dont solve the problem... the problem is down there at the level which made the mistake and the immediate 2 superior level that failed..
removing the minister would be punishing the wrong people and let those who F-up go unpunished... keep this up and the mentality in the police would change to BO-CHAP... because if anything happen... the minister get F... while the BO-CHAP get to keep his bonus!
ya ya maybe you are right.... someone say loudly they are talent.. that show how talent they can be....whahaha -

Mas Selamat has fled to Indonesia: The Star
KUALA LUMPUR - SINGAPORE'S most wanted terror fugitive, Mas Selamat Kestari, who had worked with Malaysian Jemaah Islamiah members to carry out terrorist activities at one time, is believed to have fled for Indonesia.
Regional security sources believe Mas Selamat, who escaped from the Whitley Road Detention Centre in Singapore on Wednesday, had already made his way to a cluster of Indonesian islands, some 45 minutes by speedboat from Singapore.
'Mas Selamat knows the backdoor to Bintan and other Indonesian islands by heart. He was a frequent traveller when he was allegedly heading the JI network in the republic,' said a source.

No trail of S'pore terror fugitive: Interpol chief
INTERPOL, which has issued a worldwide security following the escape of the Islamic terror leader from a Singapore detention centre, said authorities have 'no trail for the moment' on the fugitive who has been on the run for almost four days.
Interpol's executive director of police services, Mr Jean-Michel Louboutin, told The Associated Press that the escaped Mas Selamat Kastari, 47, who headed the Singapore Jemaah Islamiah (JI) militant network, is 'someone who presents a potential physical danger to others, but also a potential danger by organising future bombings'.
The international police organisation on Friday put out an 'Orange Notice' for the JI terrorist, who has been linked to Al-Qaeda and a sensational plot to hijack a plane and crash it into Singapore's Changi airport.
The Interpol notice, together with Mas Selamat's photograph and fingerprints, were issued to the group's 186 national member bureaus following a request by Singapore on Thursday, the agency said.
'When it comes to escapes, the first hours are crucial,' said Mr Louboutin.
'The state of Singapore has put into operation everything that's needed to be done. It's a small country, so it's easy to cross and leave.'
Singapore's Deputy Prime Minister Wong Kan Seng told Parliament on Thursday that Mas Selamat escaped because of a 'security lapse' at the detention centre. He had been taken from his cell to a visitors room where he was waiting for his family to make a scheduled visit. He escaped after being granted permission to visit the washroom, authorities said.
Singaporean authorities have launched a nationwide manhunt for the man they say walks with a limp. Police and military personnel set up a blockade around the detention centre, while security was tightened at land, air and sea entry ports.
Analysts said Mas Selamat, who is 1.6m tall and weighs 63 kg, would try to flee to Indonesia.
Mr Sutarman, chief of police of Riau Islands province, which shares a sea border with Singapore, told Indonesia's state-run Antara news agency on Thursday that Singapore 'sent us an urgent notice requesting intensified patrols to prevent the terrorist from entering Indonesia'.
He said Mas Selamat 'possesses good knowledge' about entering Indonesia illegally.
Indonesian police chief Sutanto told reporters in Jakarta that his force would help Singapore if the JI militant makes it to Indonesia.
'It's our common obligation, as terrorism is a threat to any country,' he said, adding: 'We've taken all important measures,' without elaborating.
Authorities have blamed JI for a string of regional attacks including the 2002 bombings on the Indonesian resort island of Bali, which killed 202 people, mostly tourists.
Security breaches are virtually unheard of in Singapore. Among its security services' biggest successes were foiling alleged plots to bomb the US Embassy, the American Club and government buildings in 2001 - schemes in which Mas Selamat allegedly had a hand.
Mas Selamat fled Singapore in December 2001 following an Internal Security Department operation against JI.
He was arrested on the Indonesian island of Bintan near Singapore in 2003, reportedly for carrying false identification, and was jailed for 18 months.
He was later released but rearrested in Indonesia in January 2006 before being handed over to Singapore, where he was held under the Internal Security Act, which allows for detention without trial.
The 2001 security operation in Singapore led to 15 people being arrested, 13 of whom were suspected JI members who allegedly planned to attack a bus full of Americans.
Mr Sidney Jones, who has extensively studied JI for the International Crisis Group of analysts, said Mas Selamat was a hardliner but now had little power in the group, whose Indonesian leadership now rejects 'Al-Qaeda tactics' targeting foreigners. -- AP, AFP.

It will be an even more embarassing affair if Mas Kastari is able to escape to Indonesia and the cheaper paid Indonesian government captures him there.
