i cant even stand a night in forest during reservist... yet he can tahan 33 years

somehow i feel that urban area is more windy than in forest. During outfield, there is no wind at all

Or the trees block the wind

The elderly man was originally apprehended by the authorities for illegally peddling vegetables off his bicycle in Teck Whye.

This case really shows how good our social welfare system is.

A lot of people complain that SG let people die on their own, is their own business. Actually not true. The national social welfare system is actually EXTREMELY generous.

Rubbish!.

Only 1 guy & they can't find him a place to stay

And now he's forced to work a job he doesn't want to stay in flat he doesn't want.
And how long will he be allowed to stay in flat?
And is 1200 enough to pay for utilities etc. He certainly won't be allowed to use charcoal to cook his meals.
And why 1200. No SDA or other dumb jobs for him to make more?


Thanks to LKY, Singapore is a place you work to death
And the elites like Mayor Aunty Demise can even make stupid remarks about Singaporeans like calling deceased a famous cardboard collector

All is BS.
All certainly raid civilised world for food and medicine

In America there's a guy who stayed off the grid for years but also broke into rich people's summer home
He was eventually caught

 

[fapperoo]

not bad can survive so long

 

[Dokwon]

Bettrr life that alot of us/rats

Wow 33 years! Thats amazing man

Its bad reporting as usual

If he stayed in the middle of Malaysian jungle and stay 50 km from nearest civilisation, thats impressive

This guy goes to HDB areas regularly
I bet he buys medicine and many necessities
Maybe even watch TV and drink beer before going back to sleep in tent

Shin Min Daily News broke the story about the 79-year-old on 17 Jan, after tracking down the man’s whereabouts.

The elderly man was originally apprehended by the authorities for illegally peddling vegetables off his bicycle in Teck Whye.

After speaking to the man, Shin Min Daily found that he was actually living alone in the forested areas around Yew Tee.

He lives in a makeshift home, built with canvas and wooden sticks.

Should be same but dunno y age diff.

Ya
Damn those idiots
Made it 33 years
Must have wished he died in his tent in jungle

Now hes so old, he's forced to work till death for something he doesn't want

Its better no one knows about him & he sleeps on void decks
So many void decks in the area, he won't be caught and he can happily die there without slogging for PAP

33 years squat on that land belongs to him already ?

No la, no matter how long he squat, land still belongs to PAP. Now even his flat, his money, and his body belong to PAP.

This feeling is like the last remaining specimen of an animal brought into captivity, and then going extinct right in front of us.

IIRC adverse possesion does not apply to state land

 

[Ctrl_Alt_Del]

Firstly, he just shite in the water?.

I think should be bitten like crazy by mosquitoes there . Probably only blood source in 100 metres radius

And will he sleep in jungle when monsoon season hits? Or sleep in HDB void decks?

What a waste to dump into water. Feces is very precious to fertilise his organics vegetable.

You never go camping or outfield? Just burn some branches then extinguish let it smolder to produce lots of smoke to ward off the mosquito.

Adverse possession, a law that allowed a person to lay claim to a piece of land if he had occupied it for 12 years without the owner's permission. The law, sometimes referred to colloquially as "squatter's rights", was abolished on March 1, 1994

I was going to say he's like imprisoned 33 years for ... not rape but insulting LKY

Now released, they make him work to death
