A netizen shared a story about how a relative of his with a 3rd eye, could perceive spirits.
His relative told him that sometimes, these spirits will stand outside of your house and peek inside just to see if anyone can see them.
One time, the family had a spirit standing standing outside their home every night, for whatever reason unbeknownst to them.
Their father then visited a priest for help, who told him that a “relative” was looking for them for help.
The priest said that the ghost was his baby sister whom his mother aborted when he was very young.
And because the baby was aborted, his mother didn’t name the child; and because the child didn’t have a name nor given a proper ritual, she couldn’t move on to the other side.
Somehow, the ghost managed to find their home and stood outside their door everyday hoping for help.
She was unable to enter their house because apparently there was a door god guarding and protecting the home.
The father then enlisted the priest’s help to conduct rituals to help the ghost move on to the afterlife, as well as giving her a name.
The netizen’s relative (with the 3rd eye) never saw the spirit (his aunt apparently) standing outside their door ever again.
A man was caught threw one of his dogs into a canal from 1-meter height for a “swim”
Netizens who were in the nature reserve witness the act and filmed him doing it.
The man behind the incident is 58-year-old Cheong Wah Meng a Singapore PR, the prosecutor of the case is from Nparks who sought a fine of SGD$12,600 as the prosecutor said that the poodle could have been injured as the dogs were dropped from 1 meter.
The man loves his dogs and did it purely out of making the dogs happy, it is not his first time bringing dogs to Upper Peirce or Lower Peirce Reservoirs for a walk.
The district judge believes that Cheong has no intention of harming the dogs, “No doubt, his intention was not to hurt the dog, but it was a dangerous act that did not take into account the safety of the animal,” said the district judge.
MOH said on 6 July that those who have received the Sinovac Covid-19 vaccine are not included in the national vaccination numbers.
MOH said:
“The national vaccination numbers reflect only those vaccinated under the national vaccination programme.”
“Currently, this only includes those vaccinated with the Moderna Covid-19 and Pfizer-BioNTech/Comirnaty vaccines.”
As such, Sinovac vaccine recipients won’t be getting the same benefits as those who took the Pfizer or Moderna variations; such as still requiring to undergo pre-event testings and etc when attending public events (something that Pfizer/Moderna recipients need not do so).
Health Minister Ong Ye Kung also added that they don’t really have enough data now to establish how effective Sinovac is in terms of infection and severe illnesses on Delta.
The vaccine has yet to be approved for use in the national vaccination programme because the Chinese drugmaker hasn’t submitted the data that the HSA needs to complete its evaluation.
A guy who videotaped a brown toy poodle with his cousin rather than stopping the diabolical act was fined $ 4,500 on Thursday (8 July).
41-year-old Clement Chia Tian Xiang repeatedly abused his poodle by tieing a string over his mouth suspending the dog in the air and beat the dog with a clothes hanger.
38-year-old Chia Yong Quan took 2 videos of the abuse and did not stop Clement from committing the act, at least 6 videos were uploaded online by the duo. The video shortly got viral and the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) was alerted.
It took years before the culprit behind the viral video was uncovered.
Between 2016 and 2017, Chia Yong Quan filmed two videos of Clement beating and torturing the dog, the videos were between 16 seconds and 33 seconds long. One of the videos showed Leslie beating between the hind legs of the dog with his fist.
Throughout the incident, Chia Yong Quan did not stop Clement and the videos were eventually shared on Facebook.

A netizen posted a Facebook post stating her witnessing man people waiting for durians to drop and not wearing safety helmets. She took a couple of photos and stated that there were signboards warning the public of fruits dropping from trees.
Here is her Facebook post:
“Went for a walk at Yishun Park with my husband. Not long into the walk, we saw this group of fellow park visitors standing around some trees, well-spaced from one another. I had initially thought they were playing a game or about to start some group exercise and were strictly observing the prevailing safe distancing measures. But curious onlookers standing around looking at them made me realise there was more than meets the eye
They were actually waiting for the durians on the durian tree branches above them to fall! “Isn’t that dangerous? Shouldn’t they be wearing hard hats?” I asked my husband.
Not sure how workplace safety and health regulations will apply here! There were many durians up on the durian tree.
but we decided let’s not join in the (risky) wait. We went to a durian stall not too far from the park, and picked a couple of durians to enjoy at home instead. “
