Supporters of banned preacher spam S’pore politicians’ social media Posted by: superadmin - 05-19-2022, 02:29 PM - Forum: Politics - No Replies SINGAPORE – The social media accounts of a number of political leaders and government agencies in Singapore have been spammed by supporters of an Indonesian preacher who was denied entry into Singapore on Monday, CNA reported. Quoting a Communications and Information Ministry (MCI) spokesman, the online news portal said there were calls for cyberattacks against the Singapore government’s social media accounts on public Indonesian chat groups. The report said the Instagram accounts of President Halimah Yacob, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, Senior Minister Teo Chee Hean and Foreign Minister Vivian Balakrishnan were among those that were affected, as was Lee’s Twitter account. The Instagram accounts of the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority and Singapore Tourism Board were also spammed, it said. - More -   Do away with APs for all imports, says DAP MP Posted by: superadmin - 05-19-2022, 02:25 PM - Forum: Politics - No Replies PETALING JAYA: A DAP MP has called on Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob to “be brave” and abolish approved permits (AP) for all imported goods, including motor vehicles. Stating that the removal of APs for imported food would address escalating prices, Kepong MP Lim Lip Eng questioned why the government decided to only abolish APs for one sector. “Why only abolish APs for food? The government should get rid of all APs, especially for motor vehicles, as this will also reduce red tape, which leads to corruption and an increase in the cost of imported goods,” said Lim in a statement. - More -   Goldman Sachs cuts its China GDP forecast to 4% on Covid controls Posted by: superadmin - 05-19-2022, 09:52 AM - Forum: Business, Economy and Investment - No Replies Goldman Sachs analysts have cut their China GDP forecast to 4% from 4.5% after weak data in April. The bank does not expect China will start fully easing Covid controls before the second quarter of 2023. On Monday, Citi — which had one of the highest China GDP forecasts — cut its outlook for growth to 4.2% from 5.1%. BEIJING — Goldman Sachs analysts on Wednesday cut their forecast for China’s GDP to 4% after data for April showed a slump in growth as Covid-19 controls restricted business activity. The new forecast is even further below the “around 5.5%” growth target the Chinese government announced for the year in March. “Given the Q2 Covid-related damage to the economy, we now expect China’s growth to be 4% this year (vs. 4.5% previously),” Hui Shan and a team at Goldman wrote in a report Wednesday. That prediction assumes there will be significant government support, on top of measures to stabilize the property market and control Covid outbreaks. - More -   Dow drops 1,100 points for its biggest decline since 2020 Posted by: superadmin - 05-19-2022, 09:47 AM - Forum: Business, Economy and Investment - No Replies Dow drops 1,100 points for its biggest decline since 2020 as the sell-off this year on Wall Street intensifies The Dow Jones Industrial Average posted its biggest loss since 2020 on Wednesday after another major retailer warned of rising cost pressures, confirming investors’ worst fears over rising inflation and rekindling the brutal 2022 sell-off.

China Eastern flight MU5375 was travelling from Kunming to Guangzhou on March 21 when it inexplicably plunged from an altitude of 29,000 feet into a mountainside, killing all 132 people on board. So-called black box flight data recorders recovered from the site were sent to the United States for analysis. That data shows that someone – possibly a pilot or someone who had forced their way into the cockpit – input orders to send the Boeing 737-800 into a nosedive, according to Wall Street Journal, which cited people familiar with the probe. - More -   No more APs to import food, effective immediately Posted by: superadmin - 05-18-2022, 02:55 PM - Forum: Politics - No Replies PETALING JAYA: The government has decided to do away with approved permit (AP) requirements to import food, effective immediately.
