Singapore Just Got Hacked (On Wikipedia.org)

January 9th, 2009 - In Singapore Media, Singapore Online

Hacked: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singapore
UPDATE: By now, 10.30PM the original article has been restored already, however, the article that was put in place from Uncyclopedia.org can still be read on their webpage.

A Whole New Perspective

As by now, Friday 10AM, Singapores precious Wikipedia entry is still hacked and got replaced with the post from its bad and evil brother Uncyclopedia.org.

I cannot deny that the entry is actually quite amusing and covers a lot of ~~“true”~~ facts and details that people might have not read about in this way before. Still, if you read it, read it with a laughing eye and dont take anything too searious :)

An extract (From: Uncyclopedia.org)

“Singapore, a modern city also known as the Amazingly Infallible “We’re surrounded by “neighbours”!” Democratic People’s Socialist Republic of Singapore, is just a puny red dot in the world (yes, the dot that tells where Singapore is on the world map is actually larger than the country itself), although it looks more like a swelling pimple from the satellite. It is the only country that creates water from urine, and even creates man-made weathers with extensive use of “chillies and onions”.

Singapore Wikipedia Entry Hacked

Although Singapore has been largely forgotten in the annals of world history, the city-state has seen tremendous growth in terms of international recognition; since the beginning of time, a worldwide poll ranked Singapore as the 4th country “that no one would miss if it were completely obliterated next Tuesday”, beating Bhutan and Vanuatu by a wide margin.

The Nation has been crowned the “Most Powerful Military Force In The World” by the United Nations since from 1965 till present, due to the fact that the Powerful Singapore’s Military Might never lost any war, as it never fought one to begin with.

Singapore was ranked 141 out of 169 in the “Worldwide Press Freedom Index 2007″ by “Reporters Without Borders” and was ranked 154 out of 195 in the “2007 Freedom of the Press World Ranking” by “Freedom House”. The comforting thing is that at least Singapore is not last in position. Try to keep your comments or complaints to yourself, or faced heavy imposed fines and lawsuits approved by the leading party known as the People’s Authoritarian Party. Thank you, and enjoy reading the rest of the article.”

You Are Not Alone

Singapore…In the end, everything written down there should be seen from a pure satirically point of view i guess, to entertain and make you spill your kopi while reading….
And to equalise things a bit, have fun with the following other country “descriptions”:
