    Terror Suspect Arrested In Batam Planned To Work In Singapore

    A man linked to a group of Indonesians who were planning an attack on the Marina Bay Sands (MBS) in Singapore had plans to work in the city-state as a cleaner and a night market helper, an Indonesian newspaper said.

    Identified only as LH, the man had a passport and was aiming to secure a job in Singapore, according to the report by the Batam Pos on Monday (5 September).

    LH was picked up in a cyber cafe at Batu Aji, Batam, on Saturday (3 September) by Densus 88, the Indonesian counter-terrorism squad, after he was found to be connected to KGR@Katibah GR, a terrorist group with links to the Islamic State In Iraq and Syria (ISIS) headed by 31-year-old Gigih Rahmat Dewa.

    Six members of the group were arrested in August after investigations revealed that they had plans to launch a rocket attack on MBS. They are currently being held at Densus 88’s headquarters for their involvement in the ISIS’ Indonesian terror network.

    Riau Islands Police Chief Sam Budigusdian told Batam Pos that 24-year-old LH, who was unemployed, confessed during questioning that he was offered a job in Singapore by a friend’s mother.

    “Through information that we gathered, LH was supposed to head to Singapore where he was offered a job with a cleaning service company and also as a night market helper. LH accepted the offer when he was in Medan,” said Budigusdian, who added that the suspect was planning to depart for Singapore via the Batam Ferry Terminal.

    The police chief added that LH said that the woman who hired him had asked him to look for five other men to work in Singapore.

    A mobilephone, a motorcycle and a wallet were seized by the authorities during the raid on Saturday.

  • PAP Wrong, Malays Want To See Malay/Muslim Prime Minister, Not President

    PAP Wrong, Malays Want To See Malay/Muslim Prime Minister, Not President

    All of a sudden you hear PAP harping on the importance of having minority representation in the elected presidency. All of a sudden, symbolism is important and meritocracy is not. Hello you think we all bodoh or what? So which is which?

    Seriously who cares about a token President? The real measure of progress is when a Malay/Muslim finally becomes a PM or becomes a Minster of Foreign Affairs or Minister of Defence.

    Will that day come? They will tell you meritocracy is important and we cannot have affirmative action because it undermines the progress of the community.

    PAP is actually confused and making citizens more confused.

    We have enough confidence in our community to produce quality candidates who would become PM without any need for affirmative action. Will that candidate ever be given a chance?

     

    Don’t PM Me

    Dr Tan Cheng Bock: I Agree With Lee Hsien Loong On The Qualities Of Ideal Candidate

    Last night PM Lee was asked this question

    Q: Who would be the ideal candidate for you for the next Elected President?

    PM Lee: Somebody who can identify with all Singaporeans, whom all Singaporeans will look up to, respect, and at the same time, have the experience and the weight and the judgement to look at what the Government is putting up to them, and to say yes, or no, depending on whether or not it is the wise thing to do. You need the experience, you need the personality.

    You also need that trust which people must build up in you, so when you say, I have made this decision after consulting my conscience and consulting wise people, it carries weight and people respect you and they feel proud to be Singaporean. That’s what we want.

    I am in full agreement with PM.

  • Indonesia Arrests Another Suspect In Batam Attack Plot: Report

    Indonesia Arrests Another Suspect In Batam Attack Plot: Report

    Indonesia has arrested another terror suspect in Batam for allegedly plotting to attack Marina Bay in Singapore, the Antara News Agency reported on Sunday (Sep 4).

    The suspect, a 24-year-old unemployed man identified only by the initials LH, was arrested by counter-terrorist personnel at a cyber cafe in Batu Aji, Batam, on Saturday, police spokesman Agus Rianto was quoted as saying.

    The man is believed to be part of the KGR@Katibah GR, a group headed by Gigih Rahmat Dewa, who is alleged to be behind the plot to attack Marina Bay from Batam, which is just a short distance across the Singapore Strait. The group is said to have links to Syria-based Islamic State (IS) militant Bahrun Naim, who has encouraged attacks on Singapore.

    “LH was part of the group that was plotting an attack on Marina Bay,” said Mr Agus, the Antara News Agency reported. “He also underwent training using airsoft guns as preparations to go to Syria.”

    In August, Indonesian anti-terror forces arrested six men on suspicion of planning a rocket attack on Singapore. The six arrested were also allegedly from terrorist group KGR@Katibah GR.

    Police also seized bomb-making materials, guns, and arrows from suspects’ homes in the raid on Aug 5. But police said there were no signs that the rocket attack was anything more than a plan.

    The suspects are currently being investigated at special counter-terrorism squad Densus 88’s headquarters for their involvement in Islamic State’s Indonesian terror network.
