I also agreed with what Jeff Tan Hong Liak had wrote about his thought via The Straits Times: I share Mr Patrick Tan Siong Kuan's disappointment and fully agree with his points ("SAF vehicle seizure: Don't politicise the issue"; Nov 30).

There is much cooperation between Singapore and China, and I hope the issue of the detention of Singapore Armed Forces vehicles in Hong Kong can be resolved soon.
