Homefront Security Month anyone?

the lads serving ns at civil defence will probably be pretty busy this month i suppose. but i guess it's good to be on high alert. well yeah what do you think this is? DPM Wong declared september to be a special "homefront security" month most probably because the government decided to be on higher alert for terrorists now. but of course without causing alarm, they gave it a nicer sounding name and try to make it sound... i don't know... fun? quite possibly the alert level is at third level now.

the prepaid card is a double-edged sword. those who can't afford postpaid accounts for their handphones, or rarely using their phone are more than happy to use prepaid. terrorists too. i guess it's true that unless they do something to keep a tighter rein on this service in singapore, someone might be smart enough to figure out getting together an improvised device and incorporate the prepaid sim card with... (hrmm nokia isn't american. let's use motorola...uh are they american?) a motorola v3 handphone that will activate the device! that's bad. i mean, it'd be a waste of the phone though. but i can imagine the terrorist would be like "hmph we can afford higher end stuff even if it's just for our missions" HAHAHA...
