Suntzulee dispute tag

Noticed that wkkay closed a few threads without really solving any issues.

Not that I want to waste your time but after reading through the threads, it is obvious that the questions are still not answered.

Is it really appropriate just to remove the dispute tag after 2 years even if the dispute case is not yet settled.

+1. If dispute not yet settled, no matter the period please don't just make the dispute tag disappear. It only shows that the person with dispute tag has no intention on settle things. Just like criminals hiding until the arrest period is over

Not everyone do background check especially for small items. So please restore the dispute tag unless if there is a really good reason to it.

Hence, can you at least please answer what is the rationale behind it? I mean to remove the dispute tag after 2 years.

This is your question: So if the victim dies before a resolution is reached, does that mean we should never remove the dispute tag because the victim never got a chance to forgive?

Gurvin did answer your question. The victim is still there. And he has yet to forgive.

So here is the next question. Why is the dispute tag removed even though the victim has yet to forgive?

Super thin display!

Found a translated article on it at allkpop forum.

Shocking: The prettiest star of SNSD and Psy from "Oppan Gangnam Style" are having an affair?!

This groundbreaking news might break the hearts of a few Sones out there because the prettiest of the members, Yoona, is said to be having an affair. And the guy in question? The super popular PSY, who has recently gained global fame due to his song "Oppan Gangnam Style". This 'beauty and the beast' combo is unbelievable to many of us!

PSY, who's currently 35 and has been in the Kpop industry for 12 years has reached new heights in his music career but on the contrary, has been keeping his personal home life under wraps. Even after becoming really famous, when he's being interviewed, he hardly mentions his wife and two daughters. And the reason? Before "Oppan Gangnam Style" became internationally popular he had already found 'someone' - Yoona, who is younger than him by 13 years old. According to magazines they both regard each other as someone they get along with well and the two have been seen meeting secretly and an affair could be in the air.

The magazine content states that because PSY often produces albums for other singers, he met Yoona half a year ago through a party. Yoona hid in the corner and hardly said much and PSY immediately used his "Oppan Funny Style" on him and made Yoona laugh. Thus they gradually became close to each other.

After this, Yoona would always attend parties held by PSY. Although they appear unclose in front of people they don't know, they were secretly close to each other. However this put stress on PSY's wife because she had to keep it all in as to not disrupt PSY's growing career and destroy their family of 4. PSY married his wife 劉惠妍 (dunno how to translate her name into Korean) in 2006 and gave birth to twin girls. The magazine source jests at this because if you think about the timing, it's nearly 7 years -- and that's when the '7 year itch' starts coming into play.

Last night Yoona went to Hong Kong to attend the grand Autumn-Winter fashion show for the famous brand Vivienne Westwood and she got asked about her relationship with PSY. The translator was prepared and did not translate the question to her and when the reporters asked in English, Yoona chose not to reply and then left the scene with the company of many of her assistants.

This is most prob fake but de issue is oneFM directly released this news without checking de authenticity. Wondering how much of the stuff heard on radio can be trusted

Sabahans and Sarawakians below 35 barred from work

vxv — Mon, 10 Sep 2012 08:00:25 +0800

By TheStar

JOHOR BARU: Malaysians above the age of 18 are allowed to work in Singapore except for male natives from Sabah and Sarawak whose age limit has been raised to 35.

The new ruling was imposed as an “administrative punishment” after a series of crimes and fights involving rowdy native Sabahans and Sarawakians in the republic.

It is learnt that several high profile murders involving Sarawakians and Sabahans in Ang Mo Kio Avenue, Kallang, and also Geylang in recent years have contributed towards the stricter regulations.

The new ruling has caused much difficulties to law-abiding Sabahan and Sarawakian native men, mainly unskilled and odd-job workers to work on the island.

Fresh workers below 35 were barred entry while those within that age group and already working there could not renew their work permits after they expire within two years.

Gagasan Dayak Iban Bersatu Malaysia (GAIU) president Sai Malaka said although the ruling was not made official by the Singapore Manpower Ministry (MOM), all work permit applications by native men from Sabah and Sarawak below the age of 35 were automatically rejected.

“I feel that this measure is very extreme and discriminatory towards native Sabahans and Sarawakians,” he said.

Sai added that Sarawakian and Sabahan men were skilled workers especially in the oil and gas sector, fabrication and factory maintenance.

He said since the ruling took effect, many Sarawakians and Sabahans who were unable to work in Singapore had opted to work in factories in Johor, particularly around Pasir Gudang.

“Luckily the government is developing the oil and gas hub in Pengerang near here. The project is now providing much needed work for these unemployed workers,” he told The Star yesterday.

State Unity, Human Resource, Science, Technology and Innovation Committee chairman M. Asojan said that he was also aware of the issue and urged Sabahans and Sarawakians who were unable to get into Singapore to take up the 42,000 jobs available in the various industries in Johor.

Meanwhile, a spokesman from MOM confirmed that Singapore had tightened the policies governing the hiring and retention of foreign manpower in the last few years to moderate the growth of foreign work force as well as to promote productivity-driven economic growth.

He said that foreign manpower from all sources were required to meet various criteria to be eligible for work passes.

“We will continue to approve or renew the work passes of workers from Sabah and Sarawak who are found to be eligible and suitable to work in Singapore,” said the spokesman.

Malaysian High Commissioner to Singapore Datuk Md Hussin Nayan said that during the elections in Singapore, one of the issues raised was over the high number of foreign workers there and the government had taken steps to address the matter by minimising the intake of unskilled workers.
