An Open Letter From James Tomez
As I lounged in my Pierro Lissoni designed sofa with my copy of the Straits Times yesterday, I was immediately taken aback to read about the escape of our country no. 1 terrorist Mas Selamat or “Maha” Selamat as he’s known to all his followers by now from our detention centre. To say I was disturbed is an understatement. To say I was disgusted is not an exaggeration. My entire belief in our country’s security system has been literally shaken to the core. My confidence on our Government’s readiness to tackle international terrorism has plunged by a few hundred notches and is still plunging. But what was more appalling was to see the manner the Home Affair Minister reacted to questions raised by the MPs in Parliament. Our Wong made a half-hearted apology before providing half-baked answers to queries from the MPs in his usual nonchalant demeanour. Fuck, he even made time to put on a smile here and there in a pathetic attempt to soften the tension and lighten up the mood in the house. To that I can only say “FUCK YOU!” This is no laughing matter Wong. Your vague standard ministerial response to any uncomfortable questions posed is no longer applicable in this instance. We are talking about a dangerous terrorist with an Al Qaeda mindset and a PAP ego. A terrorist with the ultimate aim to cause massive destruction and casualties in our tiny island city state. In fact, the thought of having such person loitering among us send a shiver right down to my balls. The anxiety that I experienced after learning of this news was so severe that I lost all appetite to finish my plate of Swedish meatballs and THEY WERE DAMN DELICIOUS MIND YOU! Your half-fucked apology is not enough Wong. You must explain. Explain why a terrorist walking with a limp could somehow managed to escape a heavily guarded compound not in the night but in broad daylight. Explain why a terrorist walking with a limp can avoid detection for so long even though the authority has expended so much manpower and resources in this manhunt. Wong, saying sorry is just not enough this time round. Sorry also must explain.
