北B小人 :

How is nepal flood associated with SIA and air India?

Lisa Marie White :

Yes please take action against racism online!

🇸🇬NAZ :

So many issues in Singapore itself but he some how triggered by just this one?

stan :

So now the racism card is played and police arrests threatened to deflect and silence voices from the disastrous investment decision by SIA and Temasek?

Melvin Chew Hawkers United :

Those who are playing the racist card need to be severely dealt with! To those racist one! One day when you meet with an accident, those name which you called out with racism remark might be the person who will be saving your life!

martinleearchie :

Workers’ Party MP Kenneth Tiong is questioning whether Singapore’s state-linked funds should continue carrying indirect financial exposure to Air India through Singapore Airlines’ 25.1% stake. His argument is straightforward: if SIA believes in Air India’s long-term turnaround, it should take that commercial risk itself—not rely on Singapore’s state-linked capital to repeatedly support the investment.

Rameshiyer :

please catch and charge those who make racist comments online. these nasty people have no sympathy for those who suffer. how would they feel if the victim are their loved ones

soilis32 :

These days, everything happens behind a screen. How sure are we that those commenters are actually Singapore netizens? A username or profile doesn’t necessarily prove someone’s nationality. Daily misinformation about Singapore, so under-hand tactics exist. I often believe Singaporeans are kind & compassionate people. Maybe, I am wrong.

Srini Penang :

Finally!! Thank you Sir. Next get police to Fine them.

CELEBRITIES BIG PRAWN NOODLES :

Pls charge them in court... Teach them how to respect people... These keyboard warriors have sour attitude.. Keep using the words 'CECA

martinleearchie :

The debate is ultimately about financial discipline, accountability and protecting Singapore’s strategic interests: how much risk should Singapore-linked institutions take overseas, and where should the line be drawn between a commercial investment and an obligation borne by Singaporeans?

max 🃏 :

very sad how some singaporeans can make racist and mean comments even about a very tragic case where many people have died. how hateful and disgusting can one be?

Berserk 驳诉 :

Rest in peace for the victims. Blessings for all rescuers.
