What did this fella post actually? From CNA: http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/sin...1166078/1/.html Young PAP member quits over offensive remarks on Facebook By Esther Ng, TODAY | Posted: 17 November 2011 2111 hrs SINGAPORE: A Young People's Action Party (YP) member who posted "insensitive" remarks - in his own words - on his Facebook page has resigned, following an online furore. Mr Jason Neo has also issued an apology on his Facebook page. He had posted a religiously and racially offensive caption to a photograph which he uploaded onto the social networking website. The posting went viral recently. In Mr Neo's apology, he said the post was out of a "moment's folly" and did not, in any way, represent the view of the PAP or the YP. He said: "I hereby offer those within our Muslim community and anyone else offended my most sincere and unreserved apology." Mr Neo, a volunteer at Meet-the-People sessions in Sembawang who joined YP in June, had posted the offensive caption and photo sometime in February. Mr Neo's action was condemned by YP leaders, including YP chairman Teo Ser Luck who wrote on his Facebook page: "We will have to take action. Such acts must be condemned." In a statement on YP's Facebook page on Thursday, its vice-chairman Zaqy Mohamad reiterated: "YP's and PAP's position is clear. Racism has no place in Singapore, and certainly not in the ranks of the PAP. The party has always upheld the core values of meritocracy and multiracialism. As a minority and from a race and belief targeted in the post, I found it very offensive, and I am certainly disappointed that it came from one of our activists." Mr Zaqy stressed that the YP executive committee regularly updates members on its informal guidelines - online or otherwise. "One of the fundamental prohibitions is that the party does not condone malicious racist remarks," Mr Zaqy said. In light of this episode, "more regular reminders" will be made to YP members, he added. Nevertheless, the incident raises question marks on the screening process carried out by political parties on potential members. Veteran PAP Member of Parliament Charles Chong told TODAY that it would be "difficult" to vet those joining YP or PAP. "They may profess to have the same ideology as the party and have a clean record, but even with psychometric tests, there is a small possibility of mistakes or missteps," said Mr Chong. On his Facebook posting, Mr Zaqy acknowledged that questions were raised about membership in the YP as a result of the incident. He said: "They would have demonstrated a certain level of interest and commitment towards the Party before they would be referred by a trusted comrade for membership." Speaking to Today, Mr Zaqy added that typically, potential members are "judged by how they perform or act as volunteers first before they are brought into the party". -CNA/ac

OK there has been some products surfacing over the weekend and this prompts me say something. First of all, X-Rev. It is hard not to miss it because it has been going around in flyers on windscreens in Ikea's carpark. I point you to the website: http://www.x-lube.com/All%20frames.htm It touts the ZeroFriction formula. You know what the surprise is? It has been around. See this link: http://www.lubricants.co.uk/zerof_friction_reducer.html Quite similar to what this product touts: http://www.emtacorp.com/products/default.aspx A lot of fallacies are already evident in their website. I quote their FAQ. First of all, what is an effective lubricant? High performance cars? You mean sub-120bhp engined cars are high performance? Hot and humid? Since when does an engine mind "hot and humid"? Engines and their oil are extremely comfortable at such temperatures. It is only blizzard cold they start to cough and wheeze. The humidity does affect the oil in a way because this will increase oxidation. Engines are not humans and don't need air conditioning. Major oil companies interested only to sell petrol with increased fuel consumption in cars? Then they won't be selling 20 to 30wt oils and hide these from us! How about Amsoil, cxxxxxe, Royal Purple, Redline and Schaeffer's. They are not associated with any oil company. So they are also interested in increased fuel consumption?
