With that one single sentence (as stated in the title), a previously unknown and faceless girl suddenly became FOTM (Flamebait Of The Month).
A quick recap for those who may not know – a 21 year old male (Private Dominique Sarron Lee Rui Feng of 3 SIR), required by Singapore laws to serve in the 2 years in the army, passed away during training. The above, “Singaporeans too weak? LOL” was a comment posted by a girl (Zheng Huiting) to a Facebook link about the news of this tragedy.
What followed was a furore of irate netizens who started flaming her.
However, this blog post isn’t one of these. I’m not going to rehash what has already been said. If you want to know more, just google for it.
