From CNA: http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/afp...1227887/1/.html Japan, Taiwan fire water cannons near disputed islands Posted: 25 September 2012 1332 hrs TOKYO: Coastguard vessels from Japan and Taiwan duelled with water cannons on Tuesday after dozens of Taiwanese boats escorted by patrol ships sailed into waters around Tokyo-controlled islands. Japanese coastguard ships sprayed water at the fishing vessels, footage on national broadcaster NHK showed, with the Taiwanese patrol boats retaliating by directing their own high-pressure hoses at the Japanese ships. The large-scale breach of what Japan considers sovereign territory -- one of the biggest since WWII -- is the latest escalation in a row over ownership of the islands that pits Tokyo against Beijing and Taipei. The intrusion complicates the already volatile territorial dispute with China. Taiwan has said that officers aboard some of the patrol ships sent to the area are fully-armed elite coastguard personnel. Japan's Chief Cabinet Secretary Osamu Fujimura told a press conference that by 9:00am (0000 GMT) eight Taiwanese coastguard and 40 fishing boats were in Japanese waters. "We have made contact with the Taiwan authorities, and told them that they cannot enter our territorial waters," he said. A spokesman for Taiwan's coastguard confirmed that nearly 60 boats got close to the islands, some coming within three nautical miles -- well inside the 12-nautical-mile territorial exclusion zone. Japan's coastguard said all vessels left territorial waters a few hours later. The boats are part of a fleet that left Taiwan on Monday, vowing to stake their claim to islands where they say they have ancestral fishing rights. More than 60 fishing boats flying Taiwanese flags left Suao, a port in northeast Taiwan, at 0700 GMT Monday, with 300 fishermen and 60 reporters on board. Taiwan's coastguard sent at least 10 patrol boats alongside the vessels. "We'll do everything to protect our fishermen. We do not rule out using force to fight back if Japan were to do so," Wang Chin-wang, head of the Coast Guard Administration, said in parliament. Japan administers the uninhabited, but strategically well-positioned archipelago under the name Senkaku. Beijing says it has owned the islands for centuries and calls them Diaoyu. Taiwan also claims the islands, which lie around 200 kilometres (125 miles) from its coast. Ownership of the islands has become an important tenet of identity for all three claimants; the possible presence of energy reserves in the nearby seabed adds to the mix. The last large intrusion into Japanese waters was in 1996, according to a spokesman at the Tokyo headquarters of the Japan Coast Guard. He said at that time, 41 ships carrying activists from Hong Kong and Taiwan entered waters around the islands with the intention of asserting sovereignty. Chen Chun-sheng, the head of the Suao Fishermen Association, said at the weekend: "Diaoyutai has been our traditional fishing ground for centuries. We pledge to use our lives to protect it or we'd disgrace our ancestors." Fujimura said Japan was handling Tuesday's situation as delicately as it could. "All in all, we must continue to take utmost caution for policing of the areas surrounding the Senkaku islands. Agencies concerned must continue to closely coordinate their actions," he said. "Japan's position is that, in light of good Japan-Taiwan relations, we must solve the issue peacefully. We wish to respond calmly." Relations between Japan and China, meanwhile, have scraped long-unseen lows in recent weeks following Tokyo's nationalisation of three of the islands, which it bought from a private Japanese landowner. Several days of sometimes violent protests erupted in cities across China, where Japanese businesses were targeted by rioters. Japan's coastguard said on Monday that of two of China's maritime surveillance ships had spent seven hours in territorial waters around Uotsurijima, the largest island in the chain. Two fisheries patrol boats briefly also entered the 12-nautical-mile zone around the chain, the coastguard said. Four marine surveillance ships and two fisheries patrol boats were in contiguous waters as of 9:00am Tuesday (0000 GMT), according to the coastguard. None of the Chinese ships sent to the area belongs to the military. Both types of vessel are government-owned and used to enforce Chinese law in domestic waters. - AFP/al

As per topic, Any cheap car park area near Amara Shopping Centre?? be per hour charges or monthly de... please assist.... =(

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Xw80fNNpCs Although the van did not move into the 1st lane initially and did not signal its intention to do so, I felt threatened, thus i slowed down. Then it still did not signal / move into 1st lane, thus i interpreted it as it has no intention to move into 1st lane, and I sped up. That's when it suddenly move into the 1st lane (simultaneously when it started to signal) and almost caused an accident. Notice how close it was to my car, and also to the black car in the 2nd lane infront of it. Also, in the first place, are such commercial vehicles allowed to travel on the 1st lane (not for over-taking)? As you can see, it continued on the 1st lane even though the 2nd land was clear after that, thus showing that it's not trying to use 1st lane for overtaking purposes only. Although not visible in the video, the driver in the van still dare to give a universal vulgar hand sign after making this reckless maneuver. How can I report this reckless act to the authority?

The video says it all..

Full story here: Full Story " A man was flung out of the passenger seat of a car after a high speed collision with a bus near Khatib MRT Station. The entire collision was captured on video via a camera in a car facing the junction at the time. The man appeared conscious immediately after the incident and did not seem to have been wearing a seat belt. STOMPer Rachel, who found the video on YouTube, commented: "This bus crashed into a car in front of Khatib MRT." " That driver never wear seat belts in a Chevrolet Spark, anyway, not sure if the Spark was speeding across the junction *maybe blind if he didn't see that bus coming towards him .

Apparently the habit of many passengers to hog the space near the train doors is causing bottlenecks especially during peak hours. Despite announcements at the platform urging these passengers to move further into the train interior and not clog up the entrance spaces, these passengers simply bochup.... Should SMRT hire a few 'pushers' like those in japan to push everyone into the trains? what sort of qualifications/skills must these pushers have? no need to hire sumo wrestlers, i hope.. or put a chio bu in bikini at the inner-most part of every train, passengers see her will automiatic move inside?

I always believe in live and let live, but this time it's gone overboard. This cab changed lane without signal and worse, stops in front of a green light. Even with my horns and high beams, he insists on continuing his 2 lane change stunt To the rear passenger, thank your lucky stars I anticipated such jokers, I do not know if these taxis come with side air bags. Youtube video I did lodge a complaint at Premier's website. What I don't understand is why the feedback webpage insists I provide my NRIC, and threatens to ignore my complaint if I don't provide it. I've already provided my contact number for verification, why should I give my NRIC number to a private company when I'm lodging a complaint?

as above xie xie for advice.

To the driver of S*K637L This morning you have been an inconsiderate driver, changing lanes without signal, without checking blindspot. Due to the way ICVR works, it looks like quite distant on video, but was ACTUALLY VERY CLOSE. If you wish to die in a RTA, pls go kiss a tree and not endanger other innocent road users. This video was captured on a DOD-F880 Song: SNSD-Oscar

Hello all, I am attending a full day seminar in ICA (Immigration) Building next week. Is there any inexpensive parking near that place (other than the open area parking)? Thanks.

opinions needed.... My S drive (205/45/16)got a nail near the sidewall few months ago and was plugged... so far so good.. it didnt leaked.. As of now...i have neutron nt5k back (30%) and front S drive (60-70%) i was thinking of wearing my S drive and change to 4 at one time in a yrs time... however im going genting 2 months later with my family... i was wondering whether i am putting them at risk.... max speed (150km/hr) there are options i exploring 1) rotate front / back as mine is FWD (make sense?) 2) change 4 but look for cheaper alternative like KU31 3) rotate front / back and change 1 pair of S drive... 4) dont bother, travel slightly slower.... 5) others??
