WP’S JAMUS LIM NOT ENTITLED TO HAND OUT EDUSAVE AWARD, SO HE HOLDS HIS OWN CEREMONY

A Sengkang resident shared how she was surprised that her MP, Jamus Lim, wasn’t present to hand out an Edusave award to her daughter.

To which Lim replied that he wasn’t absent because if disinterest, but rather, he was absent because he is not entitled to give out the award.

He explained that MPs for a particular ward are not automatically granted the role of Grassroots Adviser, which is the person who is entitled to give out the Edusave awards.

Lim is an MP from an opposition ward, Sengkang GRC.

Grassroots advisers are appointed by the People’s Association (PA) and are usually comprising of PAP MPs in the PAP wards that they are elected in; unelected PAP candidates, in opposition wards that they contested.

Lim added that despite this, he wrote a letter to the student, encouraging her to keep up the good work.

They also had a mini-ceremony of their own during a Meet-The-People Session, where the student received the letter in person from Lim.

Jolovan Wham, a civil rights activist, was fined $8,000 on 15 February for organising an illegal public assembly on an MRT train in 2017.

Operation Spectrum was an operation in 1987 that saw 22 people arrested and detained without trial under the Internal Security Act, which the government calls the “Marxist conspiracy” to “subvert the existing system of government and to seize power in Singapore.”

Wham paid only $2,500 for refusing to sign a police statement relating to the case.

Wham chose to serve the default jail term of 22 days for his other offence, just like what he did for a previous similar conviction.

Wham told reporters that he did so in order to “protest against a system which criminlaises a non-violent, peaceful assembly.

GUY BUYS TV FROM LAZADA, RECEIVES A LETTER WISHING HIM A HAPPY LIFE, INSTEAD OF TV

A disgruntled buyer shared on Facebook about how he got scammed on Lazada.

Cris Ng wrote that he ordered a Xiaomi TV from Lazada for $261, and all he received was a letter from the seller. (Reading the letter actually hurt my brain, you can see it for yourself below)

No photo description available.

So he contacted Lazada help centre and submitted a refund request, and it came with a case number.

He was then assured that the refund would be processed.

However, he then received 2 emails saying that there is a duplicate case number and as a result, both cases will be closed.

Ng then checked his Lazada app and saw that his refund request is rejected.

So he waited 2 more days before deciding to contact them again, to which Lazada issued him with a new case number.

They told him that his case has been sent to a relevant department and assured him that he would be updated.

Ng also highlighted that Lazada’s help centre is “super duper quick” to close the chat with customers and label their cases as closed and solved.

Ng asked them how they plan to follow up with his request but they couldn’t give him an answer, they then closed the chat with him and once again, he saw that his refund is rejected even though he was told that another department was handling it.

He tried again a 3rd time and his refund request is rejected again.

Ng said that he’ll be making a police report for illegal scam and that he is never shopping with Lazada anymore.
