PM Lee says S'pore must study nuclear option

[SAHM_TAN]

Germany a country bigger than ours in size (so have more distance to run away) is going to shut their nuclear power plants. While we, a country with no place to run, is still considering

[Daddy D]

The scarier thought is.... if other ASEAN countries also adopt this nuclear option.... :xedfingers:

We can run but cannot hide...

[poppy15]

what’s the point of studying nuclear when all it takes is a tiny ba-boom to blast us up to outer space?


we cannot even compare to germany or japan…

one small radiation is enough to make singapore a history

[sunflowerseed84]

our neighbours as in malaysia? if someth bad touchwood happens we are really stranded with nowhere to run liao.

If we ever build one, I certainly hope that it can be built on some kind of remote-controlled self-propelled floating platform - since we're so good at land reclaimation anyway - so that someone up there can steer it away from us if disaster strikes.


I mean if we got no space to retreat from safety zone, then we must make sure that the reactor itself can 'retreat' from us.

Reactor \"retreat\" from us to where? Won't our neighbours object to reactor \"retreating\" to somewhere near them? Won't international countries and groups object if the reactor \"retreat\" to open waters? When the danger occur, it is not only threatening one nation, but overall human kind as a whole. Imagine every nation start having such reactors.

The way forward is not to plunge deeper and deeper into this energy need due to modernisation / development. We should start exploring and encouraging more ways to go green!
