  1. Duo behind The Real Singapore website arrested for sedition Two of the three people behind The Real Singapore (TRS), a socio-political website, have been arrested. This follows a Feb 4 article where the duo are said to have embellished an article posted by a witness of an incident during the recent Thaipusam festival. The TRS article had claimed a Filipino family had sparked an exchange which led to three Singaporean men being arrested on Feb 3. But no Filipino family was involved. The original author of the article also denied the involvement of a Filipino family. Police confirmed the arrest of a Singaporean, 26 and an Australian woman, 22. The two were arrested on Feb 6 under the Sedition Act and investigations into the case are ongoing.

  2. http://therealsingapore.com/content/unprofessional-policing-singapore-traffic-police UNPROFESSIONAL POLICING BY THE SINGAPORE TRAFFIC POLICE Post date: 7 Feb 2014 - 8:05am Dear The Real Singapore, I sent the following letter to the Singapore Police Force, but I did not hear from them ever since: On 7 January 2014, the Traffic Police was conducting roadblock operation along Lavender Road. My father’s car was stopped for a Breath Evidential Analyser test at 12.20am. It turned out to be the most bizarre incident and was absolutely humiliating for my father because your officers refused to listen. My father failed the Breathalyzer test, and only upon deep recall did my dad remember that the last thing that went into his mouth was a mouthwash -Listerine – of which its main content are water and alcohol. He has not had a drop of alcohol in the last 60 years of his life. Your officers may not know this and that is fine, but please listen when someone is making a legitimate request. My father asked for a 15-minute rest before doing a second confirmation test but his request was denied, and the officer insisted on bringing my dad back to the Traffic Police Headquarters. This was done in a manner that was completely rude, completely unprofessional. As much as I understand that it is the official procedure for doing so, I would like to bring to attention that, in a circumstance where a driver had in fact consumed excessive alcohol, a 15-minute gap would not have made a significant difference and he would still be nabbed. On the flip side, for someone without alcohol consumption like in my father’s case, this 15-minute spiraled into an unnecessary 3-hour investigation of nothingness. At the station, the second Breathalyzer test at 1.36am gave a result of zero (.000/100ml). However, my dad was not released until approximately an hour later. This hour of locking up needs explanation. A total of three hours spent on investigating what turned out to be a Breathalyzer reading of zero is far from being efficient. I believe our police officers can do better than this. Traffic police officers on duty should be more discerning and flexible, and should carry out their duties on a case-by-case basis. I hope traffic police officers are now well aware that mouth alcohol (inclusive of vomit, burp, acid reflux, dentures and mouthwash) could cause one to fail the Breathalyzer test too, but that does not mean breaking the law. I urge the relevant authorities to make amendments to their current procedures so that it takes into consideration the above. The Singapore Police Force is often lauded for their stellar performance in handling high-profile cases. However, when it comes down to the daily operations, it is disappointing to learn that there exists such incompetency and insensitivity. I would want to remind this officer that roadblocks are done for a purpose. The purpose is to ensure road safety, to ensure no innocent victims get into an accident. The purpose is not for police officers to act suave and forceful towards innocent drivers. We request for you to find out who this officer is and provide us with an explanation for the humiliating experience. We want to see actions taken against this officer. Roadblocks are a must, but irresponsible officers with no passion and knowledge of their job are not required. We seek a decent answer and compensation for the absolutely humiliating experience. Letty TRS Contributor Another whiner from the TRS. The government should ban this site for spreading discontentment. Such a kuk-ku complain and you still have pple agreeing in the comments section. KNS.
