haha i like the way u say itOriginally posted by the Bear:if they're really in tekong, they're illegal immigrants, have firearms, are behaving in a menacing manner...
they'll probably hang if convicted here...
if they are extradited to malaysia, they've committed armed robbery... they'll probably hang there if convicted...
it's a lose-lose situation for the idiots
so they split up?Originally posted by LazerLordz:Well, I've a source that sez that they have captured one robber already.Yet to be confirmed though.
Hide in Ali Baba bagOriginally posted by Viper52:Ch I showed a clip of the speedboat allegedly used by the robbers, in the hands of the police. So if the 3 want to leave Tekong, they gotta find some other way.

i beg to differ. You obviously have not roamed the island freely. its not as small as you think and the vegetation is extremely dense. even 700 of our soldiers will have difficulty locating them. it takes a lot of coordination to complete this task. you're not watching a movie mind you.Originally posted by LazerLordz:Its not a very good reflection on our armed forces in recent times..Lotsa cockups, and the simple fact that three men cant be found on a military controlled island given a whole day...I may not know the facts, perhaps they want to ensure the recruits are outaa harm's way before beginning Ops.But where are the so-called technologies that we are supposed to have, even sniffer dogs are supposed to be effective, are we doing enough or do we really need a iron fist instead of kid glvoes to get this over and done with?If they have been captured or killed, for goodness sakes, MINDEF , please let the press know, and safeguard our reputation that is slowyl degenerating into a freak show, esp. amongst ourselves.

well said... the most mature and intelligent sounding post to dateOriginally posted by tripwire:the problem here is that...
all we have is a malaysian claim that there are 3 bozos in tekong...
god knows if the malaysians got their map the right side up to be even sure that those 3 bozos are even in tekong to begin with.
we just decided to play safe and starts a manhunt since malaysia claimed that they are armed with shotguns... and we wouldnt want them to bring their shotgun to changi airport or some HDB flats right?
so... all in all... its still lots of unknown..... for all we know.. the 3 bozos may not even be on tekong to begin with... who knows... maybe they are on ubin or even langkawi!!
or even if they were in tekong... they might have long left by the time the malaysians informed us.... you know those malaysian authority can be damn slow in this kind of thingy.
last but not least... it could be a prank played by them on us.... who knows?? maybe right now those malaysian officials are laughing their ass off over a bottle of beer!!
only time will tell...what is really going on.... until then... it doesnt represent anything.... in terms of SAF capability,technological or otherwise.
they obviously hadnt planned on coming to tekong... at least they din expect a welcome partyOriginally posted by Viper52:Ch I showed a clip of the speedboat allegedly used by the robbers, in the hands of the police. So if the 3 want to leave Tekong, they gotta find some other way.
