Singapore denies joint military exercise

Taiwan says Singapore and ROC have a schedule military exercise.

Singapore denies this.

Is it China’s fault. Is this payback for calling them snot and LP.

No, Singapore has no LP after all so it is China’s fault naturally.

How about supplying a source for this news?

Singapore’s special forces have been training in Taiwan at least as long as I’ve been here and probably much longer…

Or, more accurately:
A Taiwanese newspaper claims that Singapore and Taiwan have a scheduled military exercise.

Singapore denies this.

Taiwan denies this.

[quote=“Vice Minister of National Defense Huo Shou-yeh (霍守業)”]Huo also denied a report that Taiwan and Singapore will hold joint wargames for the first time in three decades.

According to the Liberty Times (the Taipei Times’ sister newspaper), the drill involving a Taiwanese motorized infantry battalion and a Singapore brigade being trained in this country would be staged in Hengchun County starting later this month.

“It is not true,” Huo said in response to reporters’ questions. [/quote]
