Megan: I myself am close to my Malaysian relatives, going to their houses more than five times a year, and I’ve heard about many recent controversies regarding SG and M’sian ties, esp near and after the new M’sian PM’s election. It’s worrying to see the tie between these teo countries being threathened, as making another enemy with a country close to SG could lead to many political issues, and may even threathen how often I’ll be able to visit my relatives. Many M’sians have migrated to Singapore to settle down, and many more young M’sians intend to study in SG due to purposes such as educational opportunities. If this territorial dispute drags the two countries’ bonds down, both SGporean and M’sian will be affected gravely, and so will the govs on both sides.

the personal details were stolen in a cyber attack on the mindefs i-net system, and even though nothing classified was breached, many personal details such as NRIC numbers and other things were stolen. this is a huge concern as everything nowadays is digitalised and many sensitive pieces of info can be stolen if not encrypted and protected well, which can lead to instability as other people or countries can use the info against us.

It is a concern as singapore does not have its own water supply and thus need to buy from other country.however if the amount to buy water is too expensive, singapore would not have the means to buy water. Leading to lack of water n worries from citizens

The issue is regarding the cyber safety and breaching of confidential information of Singaporeans such as their nric numbers, telephone numbers and birth dates.
This issue is of concern to singapore because through this incident, the hacker can either leak the information or use it for scams. Also, the if such confidential information could be obtained, so could our military or confidential governmental info . Once obtained, other countries can strike an attack on sg. This leads to a compromise of our country's safety

2.lack of water can cause dehydration which can result in all of us dying when severe then singapore will be wiped out, in addition it can cause tension between us and our neighbouring country

The issue is that Singapore has been on ISIS radar and they have already been planning attacks on Singapore.This is a concern for Singapore as we know that there is a threat of Singapore getting terrorised by such terrorist groups and we cannot do anything to stop them from attacking us. This will cause the constant fear of getting attacked at any point of time without us knowing.

The issue is that terrorism is active in our country with examples of certain Singaporeans rallying others to join in terrorism. This will lead to our country being very unsafe as people we meet may not be trustable.

I can infer that the issue is Malaysia wanting to raise the price of the water by 1600percent.Yet,less than a month later,the Johor chief minister proposed raising the water price 16-fold.This is concerning to Singapore as source D evidence states that “ Singapore has depended on Malaysia for supple since their split in 1965,and has been buying water at 3 Sen per thousand gallons...” this implies that Singapore will be affected by the raise of price as Singapore do not have our own resources and have to buy them from other countries,this will affect citizens view towards the government as they may find it very unstable and risky as Singapore may lose their methods of getting resources which will affect the stability of our lives in Singapore .Thus,this is concerning to Singapore

The issue is that the personal details of 850 national servicemen and staff at the Ministry of Defence(MINDEF)were stolen through a breach of MINDEF's I-net system. Security experts has said that the attack could have been state sponsored. This is of concern to Singapore as the security of the army's personnel are at stake and could be tracked. Other countries might try to find classified information on our defences and infrastructure to find vulnerabilities which could lead to Singapore being blackmailed or easily threatened by other countries, causing tension and social unrest between countries and among citizens

1. A Singaporean involved in ISIS encouraged others to jon the terror group
2. There may be other Singaporeans involved in ISIS but we are not aware about it. It poses as a threat to us as they will know the country better and it will be easier for us to be attacked.

# data[].attributes.body
1. A Singaporean has joint ISIS and he has been shown executing 3 men by shooting them. He has also called called other people to join ISIS.
2. This issue could affect Singapore as the Singaporean could appeal to the other Singaporeans here as he is also from Singapore. And he might leak information about Singapore to ISIS, making us vulnerable if they were to attack us.

hELLO 🤪
1) chief malaysia of the malaysian state of johor suggest that singapore buys water at a raise 1600 % which is proposing the price of water to be raised by 16 folds .
2) despite us having NEWwater and out all four taps however it could be insufficient for the needs of singaporean . a dispute of price may cause a uprising tension between us and the neighbouring country , malaysia which lead to unhappiness . they may cut our water supply which may lead singapore in despair!!

the issue is that a secret member of the ISIS was in singapore having a string of drug and criminal convictions. this makes everybody in the country feel unsafe when they know what a fellow singaporean is doing with the ISIS. ISIS could attack the country at anytime and singapore could be wiped out in a second as it is so small compared to other countries. social tensions would be high and people will not have mutual trust and respect towards each other especially in terms of their race. 🦙

# data[].attributes.body
So long story short,this guy called Abdul Samad is part of the isis. He has been a secret society member in SG with multiple criminal records.

This is of concern to the society because we as citizens take the SG safety for granted and often look down upon these kind of threats because it has never impacted us is a major way. However, this IGNORANCE allows Isis to take our vulnerability to their advantage and attack us when we least expect it. There are people around us who could break the fragile stability that we have now in minutes and our nonchalance will cause a greater negative impact such as death and chaos.

isis has plans to attack Singapore. It is a concern as Singapore is a small country. If anyone were to attack us, the entire country would be affected. There will be rising social tensions internally. This would affect our society as the unrest among the citizens will lead to greater issues. And we'll then be even more vulnerable to attacks.

When there are vessels from other countries in our territory, they could be casing our country and planning for attack and we would not know. Them being in our territory also shows that they do not acknowledge us as the owner of the area so this might be a concern to Singapore as they do not respect our place in the area so this is a threat to us as they will underestimate us. This will result in tensions between our countries and as our country is connected to Malaysia this might disrupt our daily movement and trading with Malaysia resulting in economic decline.

1) personal details of 850 national servicemen & staff at MINDEF were stolen
2) confidential information in the government could be accessed by outsiders/hackers & use it as a threat/blackmail against the government. For example, the hackers could send the information to a country who is inferior to Singapore and use it to their advantage in weakening SG internally. Thus, SG would become vulnerable. 🥖🥐🥖🥐

1.One of the ISIS group,called Katibah Gonggong Rebus want to launch a rocket attack against Marina Bay Sands integrated resort from Batam but failed to do so. As they was arrested by Indonesian authorities before they could do so.
2. This issue is concern to Singapore as the target of the ISIS is Singapore. If the attack was succeed,the whole of Singapore will be in a huge loss,in terms of life and the infrastructures and all the country's achievement. Our lives will be in danger,we will not have enough time to escape and this will cause social tension.

# data[].attributes.body
the issue for my source is about a terrorist group who had planned a rocket attack against Marina Bay Sands. This is a  concern to Singapore as, had the group not been apprehended by Indonesian authorities, it would have resulted in a massive loss of lives and profit. it would have also proven that Singapore is not as safe as most people think it is, and lead to panic which in turn would result in social unrest.

Mahathir, the chief minister of Johor, suggested that the price at which Singapore buys water should be increased by 1600%, saying that the price Singapore bought water from Malaysia was "manifestly ridiculous", although Singapore's Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that both countries are supposed to uphold the agreement.

The issue is that Malaysia is using the price of water to push Singapore around and try to take advantage of Singapore. If the minister succeeds, other countries may try to follow suit and also push Singapore around as well.

Malaysia send boat into Singapore water. Singapore angry Malaysia. Johor chief minister Osman Sapian visit Singapore.

Mahathir is negotiating with singapore to raise the water price by 1600% than the price currently (3 sen/1000 gallon). This is a concern to singapore because if singapore and malaysia do not agree on the water price, tensions may arise. This would be a major problem as there would be a possibility where malaysia would stop sharing water with singapore. Singapore would then have lesser supply of water and would have a problem to meet demands of Singaporeans. -Ishira

A singaporean joined ISIS recently , and in a clip encouraged and called for other people from East asia or Middle east to join ISIS. He was radicalised and therefore was influenced to join ISIS. This is a concern when Singaporeans ( especially the younger generation) find out about people joining ISIS and may find it interesting. As these issues aren't usually brought up by parents or adults. When they find it interesting they may also start to have incorrect string of thoughts, and alongside with certain influences like violence gaming , this will be a concern in the future.

Singapore and Malaysia maritime dispute. The dispute causes conflict between the two countries and can lead to tension. If this continues, the chances of Malaysia and Singapore being enemies or going into war increases. Causing difficulties for Singaporeans or PR who have relatives in malaysia, putting them in a spot

If you think about it, Singapore: Trading Centre of Asia, Got extremely Low crime rates, multicultural and multiracial harmony and lots of foreign tourists.
We are a perfect target for many terrorist schemes, like extremist groups such as ISIS and such. When people still have the mindset that Singapore is still so safe, then suddenly a terrorist Attack occurs, there’s a high chance that the image of a perfectly safe Singapore would shatter so badly that the nation would go into disarray over a major breach of safety, hence the government’s many attempts to prepare Singapore for such a case.

1.Singaporean Megat Shahdad Abdul Samad called for extremists to join ISIS in terrorising East Asia.
