    Unsung Heroes: SMRT Tanjong Pagar Malay Stn. Manager And Indian Assistant Stn. Manager Led 7 Commuters To Safety During Fire

    Some of you might have seen the news that a huge fire broke out at the construction site of Tanjong Pagar Centre last Thursday, and we’d like to share a behind-the-scenes story about the heroic acts of our staff:

    When Tanjong Pagar’s Station Manager (SM) Rahmat Bin Aman and Assistant Station Manager (ASM) Amutha D/O Subramaniam heard that there was a huge fire close to an exit, they instinctively grabbed fire extinguishers and ran towards it.

    7 commuters were affected and the top priority for our staff was to get them to safety immediately. Being familiar with the station, SM Rahmat hurriedly led the way while ASM Amutha ensured that no one was left behind. ASM Amutha placed the commuters’ safety above her own even though she was asthmatic and had inhaled quite a bit of smoke.

    Fortunately, everyone, including the staff were safe. Great work from our staff at Tanjong Pagar station!

  • Hijabi: Auntie Let Me Have Aircon Even Though Bus Was Hot

    Hijabi: Auntie Let Me Have Aircon Even Though Bus Was Hot

    The other day, it was super hot, and I boarded a super crowded bus from the airport heading home.

    Me and 2nd boy sat right at the back, left side of the bus. Beside me was a lady (not really sure what race) and it looked like she just got off from work.

    She asked me, “the Aircon cold or not?”

    I placed my fingers close to the Aircon vent to check. “OK la aunty. Quite cooling. Are you hot, I shift it for u?”

    She replied “no no no. U take. I know u wear this ah (pointing to my Tudung) so u need more Aircon. U take u take. The bus at the back always very hot one.”

    It was true. It was very warm. Plus the crowd made it warmer.

    I shifted the vent to blow in her direction.

    She just smiled at me : ))

    We need more of her please

    I am very sorry if this may seem inappropriate to post, however I am really in need of help.

    I have been actively researching on how to renounce Islam legally in Singapore for the past 2 months. I even found a facebook page for Ex-Muslims saying that I should get a deedpoll and change my name.

    I do not wish to change my name, I only want to renounce it officially so I may no longer be bound under their syariah laws.

    I am calling out to anyone who has done this before to please help me.

    Every organisations I have contacted are avoiding this matter like the plague be it government or private.
    Muis is not even answering my concerns its aggravating.

    I am an athiest and I only wish to free myself from the syariah law.

    Is it fated that he shall remain Muslim? Only God knows..inshallah. Hopefully readers can give good advice to remain Muslim.

  • Prestasi Firma Melayu/Islam Bertambah Baik

    Prestasi Firma Melayu/Islam Bertambah Baik

    Syarikat Melayu/Islam terbesar di Singapura telah dapat memperbaiki penilaian dalam senarai berprestij, Singapore 1000 (S1000) dan Syarikat Kecil dan Sederhana (SME) 1000.

    Second Chance Properties (SCP) Ltd dan Mes & JPD Housing telah memperbaiki kedudukan mereka tahun ini dengan masingmasing dalam senarai S1000 dan SME1000 yang dikeluarkan firma DP Information Group.

    SCP kini menduduki tangga ke-144 berdasarkan jumlah pasaran permodalannya sebanyak $209.5 juta di kalangan 500 syarikat yang disenaraikan di SGX.

    Tahun lalu, SCP yang diasaskan Encik Mohamed Salleh Marican menduduki tangga ke-383.

    Syarikat dinilai berdasarkan penyata kewangan yang diaudit dari 1 Jun 2014 hingga 31 Mei 2015.

    “Permodalan pasaran Second Chance meningkat disebabkan keuntungan bersih kami yang menjulang. Lebih ramai pelabur yang membeli saham kami, lantas meningkatkan permodalan pasaran,” ujar Encik Salleh, yang dihubungi semalam.

    “Menjelang 2020, visi SCP ialah mencapai permodalan pasaran sebanyak $1 bilion.”

    Namun, disebabkan kelembapan ekonomi sejagat dan kenaikan kadar faedah, kuasa membeli pelanggan berkurangan dan ia dijangka menjejas permintaan dan keuntungan Second Chance tahun ini, tambah beliau.

    Sebuah lagi syarikat dalam S1000 ialah PropNex Realty yang diasaskan Encik Ismail Gafoor.

    PropNex menduduki tangga ke-196 daripada pulangan terhadap ekuiti (ROE).

    ROE mengukur keuntungan yang dijana syarikat berdasarkan dana yang dilaburkan pemegang sahamnya.

    Dalam senarai SME1000, Mes & JPD Housing, milik Encik Mohd Abdul Jaleel Shaik Mohamed, naik 11 tangga untuk mencapai tangga ke-36 tahun ini dalam senarai SME1000 bagi keuntungan bersih.

    Ini bermakna di kalangan SME1000 yang mempunyai keuntungan bersih terbanyak, Mes & JPD menduduki tangga ke-36 dengan keuntungan bersih sebanyak $17.9 juta.

    Mes & JPD memiliki dormitori bagi penginapan pekerja asing di Singapura.

    Encik Jaleel ialah Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif (CEO) dan Pengasas Mini Environment Services, yang merupakan syarikat induk Mes & JPD.

    “Untuk berkembang, seseorang harus mengongsi pertumbuhan perniagaan tersebut dengan masyarakat,” kata Encik Jaleel, yang memang diketahui sebagai seorang yang pemurah.

    Sejak 2010, beliau telah menderma $500,000 kepada Dana Wang Saku Sekolah (SPMF) The Straits Times dan memberi tambahan $50,000 tahun lalu sempena ulang tahun Singapura yang ke-50.

    Sebuah lagi syarikat dalam SME1000 ialah cabang antarabangsa PropNex, PropNex International, yang tersenarai dalam kategori keuntungan bersih dan penjualan.

    PropNex International, yang memasarkan hartanah di luar negara, meraih keuntungan $2.3 juta dan menduduki tangga ke-414 bagi senarai SME1000 yang mempunyai keuntungan bersih tertinggi.

    Di bawah senarai penjualan tertinggi, ia menduduki tangga ke-424 dan mencatatkan penjualan sebanyak $24.2 juta.

    Mustafa Holdings, yang memiliki bangunan Mustafa Centre, berada di tangga ke-317 dengan keuntungan bersih sebanyak $3 juta.

    Inderjit Singh: Singapore’s National Identity Issues Need To Be Addressed

    Former Member of Parliament Inderjit Singh does not mince his words when talking about several issues the government needs to look into in order to show that it is in touch with the people on the ground.

    In an interview with Inconvenient Questions (IQ), he shared his thoughts on what on what makes a Parliament that has better checks and balances, and how the government can avoid falling into the elitism trap.

    He also said that his wish for Singapore society was a stronger national identity. In relation to that, Singh, who has previously pointed out the issues around integration in the Indian community, noted that integration remains an important issue that needs to be addressed in Singapore.

    “Today, we have a situation where integration is not happening as well as we want to. People don’t identify together as Singaporean as much as we want to,” he told IQ.

    He stressed that it is crucial that Singapore focuses on developing a national identity. “In times of difficulty, this commonness is what will help us pull through a difficult period.”
