    this statement is unfair --- because the PAP monopolizes political power, and the other political parties have not been given the opportunity to display their responsibility. & why does the ST feature the Prime Minister in the front cover ? --- this again is the PAP government's unholy alliance with the mainstream press, using public money in funding SPH in order to promote its own --- this is illegal and the PAP must be charged.

    This discrepancy between the MPA’s initial definitive statement on 14 June and the subsequent frantic measures to contain the spillage points to a failure in the initial response.

  • @martinmisty866
    @martinmisty86629 күн бұрын

    The actual incident painted a different picture of MPA’s containment capacity and capabilities, with the scale and escalation of the containment efforts being quite telling. The progressive increase in resources and measures suggests that the initial containment efforts of the 400-metric-ton oil spill were inadequate.

    Given the limited information available, Singaporeans can only get answers about what really transpired following the incident on 14 June through an independent review

  • @martinmisty866
    @martinmisty86629 күн бұрын

    The series of escalating measures taken by the MPA, National Environment Agency (NEA), National Parks Board (NParks), and Sentosa Development Corporation, and their contractors strongly suggest that the initial response was insufficient, potentially leading to damage that could have been contained on day one.

  • @martinmisty866

    If a spill of 400 metric tons cannot be effectively contained, a similar incident involving a larger tanker could cause even greater environmental damage.

    Contrary to claims of an adequate response by the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore to the 14 June oil spill, escalating containment measures by Singapore authorities reveal a different story.
