5 smrt staff and tunneling experts were honored in an official dinner hosted by yeo ning hong: 3 irish, 1 brit, 1 sinkie. the saf officer who was best remembered and honored during the rescue operation was ltc lim meng kin, chief medical officer then. saf only provided equipment and vehicles plus the medical teams under ltc lim. the scdf provided most of the manpower. the ft's (smrt tunnelers) provided the leadership and out of box thinking in the whole rescue. the sinkie smrt staff, tan jin thong, was the token sinkie in the smrt team. relying on the gringos was not staged. in such a situation, any expert help would do. lucky to have smrt tunnelers around then. no time and plan to stage for any lee. that's conspiracy theory.

You are operating at a very low ground level. What's wrong with getting the ground expertise when they are available and to save lives?

Nothing wrong with the govt getting Dr Albert Winsemius to come out with SG's industralisation plan. Nothing wrong with getting foreign expertise to come out with Changi Airport's blueprint. Nothing wrong with getting foreign knowhow to build the MRT.

It was SG's strategic direction that counts.

So anything wrong with getting foreign tunneling expertise if SG has to use them to save lives?
