In one of the most bizarre cases involving a foreign talent, an Indian national, Palaniappan Ramanathan,was sentenced to four weeks in jail for trying to bribe a Certis Cisco officer with an offer of $10, just so he could get away with urinating in a public place.

The officer, Hairul Azrin Anual, who was attached to the Jurong East Neighbourhood Police Centre, had spotted Palaniappan urinating against an MRT track pillar at Jurong East MRT station on April 14. The officer and his team mate approached the Indian national, and told him it was an offence to urinate in a public place.

Palaniappan was asked to produce his work permit, but instead of doing so he offered the officer a $10 to be let off. Hairul rejected the bribe and told him it was an offence in Singapore. The matter was reported to CPIB, who subsequently arrested the man.

A drunk man allegedly tried to hit an old man with a beer bottle at a food court at People’s Park Complex.

The man was said to have drank at least 4 bottles of beer and was spouting nonsense loudly. A 79 year old man who was nearby could not tolerate it and told him to lower his volume.

Enraged, the drunkard rashly picked up a beer bottle and charged at the old man while the latter tried to defend himself with a chair. He was also heard shouting “So what if you’re Singaporean?”

Luckily, the attacker struck the glass bottle on the table without injuring anyone.

FT so easily provoked? Don’t disturb people can, just go home and drink la!

I was travelling with my maid down the escalator at a mall in Orchard. My maid was a few steps behind me and when I got off, the escalator made a terrible sound. I screamed at my maid to jump off and luckily she did if not her leg would have been injured or crushed. Despite jumping she still got some minor scratches but was obviously very shaken by the incident. The escalator brand was OTIS and according to security it is almost brand new.

I of course complained to building management and they have yet to get back to me.

If you hear sounds that don’t seem right on an escalator my only advice is to get off quickly… better safe than sorry… as for OTIS… How can, in this day and age can you design a escalator that can crush and injure someone like this.

I have just received a letter from the CPF Board dated 5 September 2017, informing me that “You will be turning 64 in November. Based on your Retirement Account (RA) balance of $………. as at 31/08/2017, you can receive $…….. monthly from November 2017 under the CPF Retirement Sum Scheme. Your payouts will last about 22 years.

You can choose to start your payouts between age 64 and age 70. The later you start your payouts, the more interest you will earn in your RA. You will also receive a Voluntary Deferment Bonus of 2% on the first $30,000 of your RA balance if you start your payouts later.

No action is required if you wish to start your payouts at age 70.

Should you decide to start your payouts before age 70, please complete and send the enclosed form to us. If you have a POSB, OCBC or UOB account, apply online at www.cpf.gov.sg.”

Has there ever been any announcement in the media or in Parliament that – if you take no action – your retirement monthly payouts will automatically be deferred to start at age 70?
