This was taken from page B2 from The Straits Times dated December 29, 2009.
It seems that this year there were 57 guard agencies that scored 'A' or excellent in the latest compulsory grading by the Security Industry Regulatory Department of the Singapore Police Force.
Well, is this a great news for companies, businesses, organizations, government and statutory boards, hospitals, universities, polytechnics, schools, etc that uses outsourced guards to provide security to their respective premises?
Well, you will get to know once we release our book within the next couple of months.
In the mean time, please donate to keep our blog alive.

Update October 27 2009
I've teamed up with 2 partners and we're in the process of getting things moving at full-speed soon.
I'll be doing more frequent blogging as I've chosen the path to be a stay-at-home parent.
Hopefully I will add my blog to several RSS feeds to gain more readers from all around the world.
Thanks for following my blog despite some hiccups and I will make some improvements here.

Mas Selamat still "defiant"
Today Online, dated Oct 20, 2009 published an article on Mas Selamat Kastari as being "uncooperative" and "refused to talk" according to the Internal Security Department (ISD).
First of all, he's just an Internal Security Act (ISA) detainee, almost on par with other political detainees.
Secondly, he's NOT actually committed any crime yet and every person is presumed to be innocent until proven guilty.
Mas Selamat is a born leader and will certainly will not succumb to any interrogation methods.
Will we be able to see him come back before the coming 2011 General Election?
Or will the timing of his return occur after the GE?
Ideologies - religious or otherwise are hard to eradicate because a leopard can never change it's spots.

Death of Nordin Mohd Top and Mas Selamat's Complaint
JI fugitive from Malaysia, Nordin Mohd Top, was reported by the Indonesian police as being shot dead on September 17, 2009 and that DNA tests has proven that he was indeed Nordin Mohd Top.
Terrorism in South East Asia will not end despite the recent killings of JI's top leaders like Nordin and some Abu Sayyaf guerillas, now being branded as criminals by the Philippines government.
As long as their vision and beliefs are not met, through terrorism activities or criminal ways, their organizations will continue to thrive and their renewal process will continue until their objectives are met, through violent struggles or by peace treaty.
It was an eye-opener that Mas Selamat Kastari had complained to Malaysia's NGO Suhakam that he was being drugged and beaten whilst being detained under the Internal Security Act (ISA) in Singapore.
Perhaps the Singapore government should set-up an independent body that will look into the welfare and well-being of all ISA detainees and it would be better if it could involve some international human rights watch activists to deter any ill-treatment of ISA detainees.

Attractive for would be molesters in Singapore
The Straits Times July 23, 2009 carried a report on a former grassroot and youth leader who molested a teen-aged girl got away with a fine of only S$2,000.
The only reasons that this guy got off with a lighter fine compared to a security guard who was fined S$4,000 for molesting incident a few weeks earlier are probably his 28 testimonies of his good social works and he is better educated and hold a higher position than the guard.
I really pity all innocent girls and ladies too, who might get molested by these sexual perverts and the beauty of it, they are likely fined between $2-4k, with the maximum allowable fine of $10k.
Those who are educated will certainly be let off with a lower fine of $2k while those who are lowly educated or blue-collared worker will probably attract a $4k fine.
Cheap way to get cheap thrill!
Way to go guys, after all, Singapore is known as a "Fine City" by foreigners and shops selling these t-shirts as souvenirs.

And you thought co-broke is only mainly found in real estate deals
There are some security guard agencies (including those rated 'A' by the SIRD) that are in cahoots in 'unwritten' or 'unorthodox' deals to pass clients that had rejected an agency to fellow collaborators, in what I'd call a 'price-fixing' scam.
There are many countless security loopholes that can be exploited by those who are 'smarter' than the rest.
Some even made use of their Member of Parliament to help them secure certain certifications that in turn qualifies their agency to be rated 'A' by the SIRD.
My retirement plan is ready and when I officially made it good, I will no longer or blog lesser as time does not permit me.
Wonder why people are afraid to leave a message on my shoutbox or even email to me.
It's not as if I'm anti anybody or any organizations.
I'm not a political activist or an anti terrorist or anti government, just a security professional making it big, legally of course!
Cheers!
