“… We cannot dictate to another sovereign nation what they can and cannot do when they make a determination, if they make a determination, that they’re existentially threatened …”

This was said by Mr Joe Biden, Vice President of the United States of America, on the 6th July 2009; with reference to Israel’s likely reaction to Iran. This is the context that he meant to be understood.

With this quote; I will be foregoing any past actions by the USA and see their actions in the future.

I am watching you, Mr Biden.

As reported by the Ministry of Defence(MINDEF) news, an officer, one Second Lieutenant (2LT) Chan Wei Kit Nicholas, a Motor Transport Officer who is also a full-time National Serviceman (NSF), died when a Land Rover he was inspecting rolled over backwards & pinned him.

The incident happened around 11:30am on the 3rd July 2009 in Seletar Camp. 2Lt Chan was taking a delivery of a Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) Land Rover (shown below)

Land Rover

which had been sent there for servicing. According to MINDEF news, 2Lt “… was inspecting the vehicle when it rolled backwards and hit him. 2LT Chan was found pinned under the vehicle. …”

According to MINDEF news again,”… A recovery vehicle was activated at about 12.00pm and managed to lift the Land Rover at 12.30pm. A medical team comprising an SAF doctor and two medics from the Seletar Medical Centre attempted to resuscitate 2LT Chan immediately. He was sent to the Changi General Hospital (CGH) at about 12.35pm and he arrived at the hospital at about 12.50pm. The SAF doctor and medics continued their attempts to resuscitate him en route to the hospital. 2LT Chan was pronounced dead at 1.07pm at CGH. …”

Although the report did not specify which model of Land Rover was involved in this accident; the make of the vehicle will be similar to the one shown here. The Land Rover has been used by the military all over the world; mainly due to its hardy build and the ability to climb at a 45degrees elevated slope.

The author of this blog wishes to convey his condolence to the family of 2Lt Chan and hope that the MINDEF investigations will reveal information that the family can accept.
