@DefensePolitics@samsir1990@calvinelcheng You and Calvincheng are nothing more than barking dogs who have to bark louder and louder to get a piece of meat from your master.

Most folks following Singapore news should have read/heard about today's meeting between the Singapore government and representatives of the 10 firms being investigated for their links to haze-causing fires in Indonesia
The largest alleged offender - Sinar Mas Group, which controls Asia Pulp & Paper, and Golden Agri Resouces, sent in a "Senior Advisor" (Bernard Tan), who reportedly declined to sit at the front row for the meeting lol
Who is Bernard Tan?
He served in the Singapore Armed Forces for 22 years before retiring as a Brigadier-General. He then went on to do other gigs before joining APP in 2017, right after the record-breaking haze in 2015, as their MD of Corporate Affairs & Sustainability, and Country President (Singapore) for Sinar Mas
I wonder what's the obsession or rationale behind these palm oil plantations hiring former military generals
Here's another one - Royal Golden Eagle (RGE), also named in the Greenpeace haze report but not summoned by the Singapore government
RGE has TWO former top-level military generals:
Bey Soo Khiang, who now serves as Vice Chairman of RGE and Chairman of APRIL. He was former Chief of Defense Force (1995-2000)
Perry Lim, who served as Chief of Defense Force between 2015-2018, then joined RGE as MD in 2019
Mengapa Sinar Mas/APP dan Royal Golden Eagle (RGE) merekrut mantan jenderal tinggi Singapura?
Bukan sekadar merekrut eksekutif biasa.
Mereka merekrut orang2 yg pernah memimpin militer negara yg paling vokal menekan Indonesia soal kabut asap.
SINAR MAS / APP:
Bernard Tan → mantan Brigjen Singapore Armed Forces (SAF), diangkat sbg Country President (Singapore) sekaligus Senior Adviser Sinar Mas Group / APP sejak 2017.
Masih aktif hingga sekarang.
Bahkan dlm pertemuan baru2 ini dg otoritas Singapura soal haze 2026, Bernard Tan hadir mewakili Sinar Mas/APP bersama sejumlah bos perusahaan sawit dan pulp lainnya yang dipanggil National Environment Agency (NEA).
ROYAL GOLDEN EAGLE (RGE):
2 mantan Chief of Defence Force SAF masuk ke posisi puncak:
1. Bey Soo Khiang → Vice Chairman RGE dan Chairman APRIL Group.
Masih aktif.
2. Perry Lim → Managing Director RGE sejak Januari 2019.
Masih tercatat dalam struktur.
2 mantan panglima tertinggi militer Singapura berada di perusahaan yg sama (RGE).
Sementara itu, konsesi yg terkait dg grup2 ini berkali2 terbakar dan menjadi sumber kabut asap yg menyebar ke Singapura.
Negara yg paling keras menekan soal haze justru “diisi” oleh mantan petinggi militernya sendiri di dalam perusahaan yg sedang disorot.
Untuk apa?
Untuk membangun pengaruh ke otoritas Singapura?
Untuk mempermudah akses?
Atau biar lebih “kebal” saat diselidiki dan ditekan?
Atau ada alasan lain yg lebih masuk akal?
Atau cuma kebetulan?

@grok@samsir1990@Ndrewstjan@calvinelcheng If World War III were to break out, Singapore could face a famine and an energy crisis—even without any direct conflict between Indonesia and Singapore. @grok
@ZedSkywalker02@hartsea82 Seharusnya kalian bersukur perusahaan dari negara kalian sudah memberikan kalian asap yg byk,kalian datangu kantor pusat mereka san bakar saja seperti mereka membakar hutan di indonesia 🤣🤣🤣
Thn 2022,thn 2026
Singapore imports over 90% of its food and nearly all energy (mostly gas), so WW3-scale shipping and supply-chain breakdowns could cause shortages and energy stress even without any Indonesia conflict. Stockpiles (rice, proteins), months of LNG/diesel reserves, diversification, NEWater and desalination provide short-term buffers. Prolonged disruption of sea lanes would still hit hard; full self-reliance is not realistic.

Singapore faces steeper limits than Indonesia on self-reliance in a WW3 scenario. It imports over 90% of food and nearly all energy, with no hinterland or strategic depth. Stockpiles, source diversification, NEWater, desalination and Total Defence plus alliances (FPDA, US access) can buffer short shocks and deter, yet control of the Malacca Strait and its location would draw intense pressure in any Indo-Pacific clash. True autarky is not realistic.
@ZedSkywalker02@hartsea82 Yang suruh bakar hutan pemerintah indonesia?🤦🤦
Kamu tunggu berita selanjutnya untuk pemerintah indonesia membekjkan ijin mereka dan merampas semua perkebuna milik perusahaan2 iini 🤷♂️🤷♂️
