SINGAPORE: Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong has said that the riot in Little India is a good reminder to Singaporeans that even in a stable society, such an incident can happen.
What is important, he added, is to have a Home Team that can deal with the situation in a calibrated, thoughtful and decisive way.
Mr Lee was speaking to reporters after having breakfast at Rochor Neighbourhood Police Centre with about 40 officers, who were among the first responders at the scene of the riot and had a chance to tell him what they went through that night.
For about two hours, the Prime Minister sat with them, listening and questioning every single one of the officers, who had a personal story about the night of December 8.
They spoke about being hit by projectiles -- bricks, beer bottles, rocks, anything the mob could get their hands on. They also spoke of fearing for their life. (sic)

Why did PM give face to Police? Did they tell truth? Is he saying its ok to flee?
