1. 200k protesters in Jakarta without violence
I m pretty impressed with the performance of the Indonesian security forces in this incident. Last month the 100k people protest ended in violence with some rioting. This time round with double the crowds m nothing untoward happened. In fact President Jokowi n his VP joined the protesters!! A bold n in-your-face leadership. His security folks must hv worried sick having to do as he wanted!!
This coupled with the recent tax amnesty for Indonesians who kept billi9ns in Sgp n the non-recurrence or much reduced haze situation shows that our neighbour hv really caught up. That this President is really good for them!!
2. % of Terrorists attacks in Sgp has heightened
Back to one of the pressing concerns of Sgp. We hv launched SGSecure. We continue to prepare ourselves for the most unwanted scenario where an actual terrorists attack took place here. How would we react n respond? Minister Shanmugam, who seems to be the one spearheading this effort, repeated what he had said in the past. New element is how can we get the public transport workers trained to be the most effective on-site respondents. Public transport sites r possible targets given the crowd. So the transportation workers union's intention to make terrorists attack response training mandatory for every worker is great!
May we be prepared n never hv to act on it!!
Peace to Indonesia n Sgp. And the world.
