A “loud minority” had asked whether those missing were “really Singaporean”, he said.   👉 https://tsl.to/alexyamnepal   @mustsharenews   Full Case: MP Alex Yam Condemns Heartless Comments on Missing Singaporeans in Nepal-China Floods   📅 Posted: 31 August 2026 📰 Source: The Straits Times / Mothership / TSL  📍 Context: Floods along Nepal–China border, 26 August 2026 — over 900 dead, ~4,000 missing; 9 Singaporeans among the missing        🇸🇬 The 9 Missing Singaporeans   1. Estee Loeh 2. Ghosh Aditi 3. Ng Kit Kuen 4. Rajesvaran Ayyavoo 5. Rengarajan Prabu 6. Shalinny Deavy Elan Sozan 7. Sumit Rawla 8. Shubakshi Rawla 9. Subramaniam Diraviam    The last known location of married couple Sumit & Shubakshi Rawla was outside their hotel in Timure, northern Nepal, around 7am local time on 26 Aug. Their daughters have appealed publicly for information.       🗣️ What Alex Yam Said   Alex Yam — MP for Marsiling–Yew Tee GRC & Mayor of North West District — posted on Facebook on 31 Aug :   "A terrible tragedy. Nine of our own are missing."   But he said he found the online reactions equally difficult to stomach:   "A loud minority of people looked at their names and faces and decided this was the moment to ask whether they were really Singaporean — saying they 'don't look Singaporean', their names 'don't sound Singaporean', or that they are 'new citizens'."   He noted some comments went even further — expressing hope they remain stranded or die, and questioning why Singapore should help them .   His key points:   - ❌ Called such comments "not just racist, but downright heartless" — hopes they were made by trolls  - ⏰ "There is a time and place to debate immigration, citizenship policies and integration — but surely not now. Not over people who may have lost their lives, while their children and loved ones are waiting for news." - 💛 "You do not have to know someone to have compassion. You do not have to share their ancestry to pray for their safety."  - 🇸🇬 "You do not have to diminish someone else’s Singaporeanness to prove your own."  - 🙏 "I pray we never become so angry with one another that we lose the ability to simply be human."        📌 Official Status   - MFA: In contact with families since 27 Aug; consular assistance provided  - CNA disabled comments on related posts due to the remarks - The 9 missing are Singapore citizens — their citizenship is not in question        🔗 Original article: tsl.to/alexyamnepal

Welfare Officer Fined S$8,000 for Ill-Treating 10-Year-Old Boy Under His Care   👉 https://goodyfeed.com/welfare-officer-fined-s8000-for-ill-treating-10-year-old-boy-under-his-care/   Full Case Details: Welfare Officer Fined S$8,000 for Ill-Treating 10-Year-Old Boy Under His Care   📰 Source: GoodyFeed / CNA / The Straits Times / Mothership  📅 Sentenced: 31 August 2026 📍 Location: Singapore       👤 The Offender   - 43-year-old Singaporean male, name withheld due to gag order protecting the victim  - Employed as a welfare officer at the home since 2018, duties included supervising residents  - Also a practitioner of silat (a martial art)  - Pleaded guilty to one charge of ill-treating a child in his care    🧒 The Victim   - 10-year-old boy who had lived at the welfare home for about 6 months at the time of the incident  - Identity protected by court gag order    📅 The Incident — 11 August 2025   1. A woman saw the boy climbing a parapet on the second floor and alerted the officer  2. Later that day, the officer confronted the boy in a first-floor prayer hall, where about 16 other residents were present waiting for prayers to begin  3. The officer believed the boy was smirking and smiling at him  4. He verbally abused the boy: used Hokkien vulgarities, said he could spit saliva at him, and stated "the camera was not working" — meaning he could assault the boy without being caught on CCTV  5. He then committed three acts of violence: - Elbowed the boy in the face with his right elbow, causing the boy to stagger - Kicked the boy's leg, causing him to fall - Pushed down on the boy's chest, forcing him backwards onto the floor 6. When others looked, he told the boy to join the group for prayer. The entire incident was captured on CCTV  7. The boy later sought medical attention for tenderness and soreness; discharged same day. The attending doctor made a police report    ⚖️ Court Proceedings   - Prosecution's case: Sought a fine of S$6,000–S$8,000. Emphasised the boy was a vulnerable child entrusted to the officer's care; his position of authority was abused; being a martial arts practitioner made this more serious - Defence's case: Asked for a lower fine, arguing he had been a good employee for many years and this was a one-off incident  - Judge's decision (Judge Luke Tan): Imposed S$8,000 — the maximum fine possible for this offence - Aggravating factors cited: - Abuse of authority / position of trust - Betrayal of his role and responsibility - Degree of premeditation - Mitigating factors considered: No prior history of abuse; the welfare home still values his services and continues to employ him  - Warning given: If he commits a similar offence in future, he will likely face imprisonment    📌 Current Status   - He remains employed at the welfare home but no longer has direct contact with residents  - Penalty range for this offence: Up to 8 years' jail, a fine of up to S$8,000, or both        🔗 Original article: goodyfeed.com
