"Democracy is the recurrent suspicion that more than half of the people are right more than half the time." - E. B. White

I think that this is a new low, even for them:

The SAF Intelligence Corps: “The Blinds Leads The Blind”

"The limitations of the SAF Intelligence Corps are weakened by the increase of the retirement age of the SAF Intelligence personnel to 60 years old under the MDES scheme introduced by MINDEF in 2010. By increasing the retirement age of the SAF Intelligence personnel, it implies that the SAF Intelligence Corps will comprise of a large pool of elderly military personnel, whose sharpness of eyesight and hearing ability will be affected by their old age and whose mind will be less quick thinking in analyzing the information obtained intercepted from radio communications and air photos captured by UAVs and satellites...

With the limitations of Signal Intelligence and Imagery Intelligence capabilities of the SAF Intelligence Corps, coupled with the increase in retirement age of the SAF Intelligence personnel, the SAF Intelligence Corps has “Eyes that do not see, Ears that do not hear.” Hence, will the SAF become like “a man without ears and eyes” and a national institution with the blinds leading the blinds?"


The blinds leading the blinds

(Somehow a Google Image Search for "blinds leading the blinds" got me a lot of pictures of women's fashion and shoes)
