Vital to have a capable, vigilant Internal Security Department to protect Singapore: PM Lee

Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said inherent fault lines in Singapore's diverse society must be watched carefully and handled properly, even as the country recognises and accepts its differences. Speaking at the Internal Security Department's 75th anniversary, he added that the intelligence agency plays a key role in tackling such challenges. Mr Lee said ISD officers are the eyes and ears on the ground, keeping close watch on trends and nipping problems in the bud before they get out of hand. Jeraldine Yap reports.

People are different in cultures, religions and thinkings, they are one citizens. They must put their differences aside and unit as one nation to fight for country's enemy.

Does sg really has a capable, vigilant internal security?
Maybe
Since tourists, travellers aka foreigners claim so

[@GASIA-cw8iw]

Yeah, so do you think it is time to fix the mini-BBC?
Or the ISD should continue to be used to fix critics of PAP?
Ha ha ha!

Ang Mohs = High-class

Strawman argument, as usual

[@GASIA-cw8iw]

Singapore has become more westernised?
No, the situation is more worrisome, it has started to turn White.
Go and assemble 100 PAP scholars, let's see whether they can see the potential problems here.
Ha ha ha!
