This news was up since last evening. It’s been more than 19 hours as I typed this mail, and so far there’s no news that this guy has been found.
A MASSIVE manhunt involving thousands of policemen and Gurkhas was launched yesterday after Mas Selamat Kastari, the terrorist who planned to crash a hijacked plane into Changi Airport, escaped from detention.
Mas Selamat, 47, who took over as head of the Jemaah Islamiah (JI) terror network here in 1999, fled the Internal Security Department’s Whitley Road Detention Centre at 4.05pm yesterday.
I wondered just how the hell he escaped, and actually got far enough before it was even discovered that he’s gone! A mole, or a sympathizer? Is there some ‘Infernal Affairs’ going on here?
When I spoke to my boss this morning, he mentioned that he wouldn’t be surprise that this guy is already out of Singapore by means of a little speed boat, and he is now in fact, safe and hiding away in some remote, nearby Indonesian island sipping Teh Tarik already.
And then he mentioned that they should put him under watch by the army, since he’s a militant, which not only makes it a matter of national security, but a military one as well.
And to think of it, perhaps George Warmonger Bush and his goons has gotten it right, when he declared them as ‘enemy combatants’ and stick them away with the military in Guantanamo Bay. (Of course, I don’t agree with water boarding and the tortures.)
Singapore should have done the same like stick him on a small island that’s surrounded by 2 layers of electric fences, complete with military manned guard towers with machine guns and never should have kept him on the main island.
Now we have just become an International laughing stock and I wonder which 3 million dollar man will take the responsibility for this boo-boo. In fact, I suggest that if Mas Selamat is not caught – either dead or alive – in 3 days, the Minister of Internal Affairs should resign. If not, he should not get his pay at all until after the terrorist is apprehended. There should be no tolerance for the failure of these so-called top brains of the nation paid with top money. Such failures are unforgivable and unacceptable, even though it could be the fxxk up of a lowly watchman.
Incidentally, where is Dr. Chee when we need him? He should be the one making the call for the heads and blood of those who should take up some responsibility for this boo-boo.
And now to lighten things up, some ‘Mas Selamat the Limping Terrorist’ sayings. (They are probably as good as, if not better than ‘Achmed the Dead Terrorist’.)
- “Is that the fastest you can run, infidel?”
- “I can run faster than you on one leg.”
- “You call that running? My grandmother can run faster than that!”
- “Run faster! I keel you!”
put him in DB and then make him do sand bag regime??
Jean> Thanks for pointing it out. The mistake has since been corrected.
Hi there 🙂
Oh, is this a typo? =P
“If not, he should get his pay at all until after the terrorist is apprehended”
Cheers,
