    • Hi guys... I'd like to share with you one of the services we have over at LFI...

      Its called the "Inbody 3.0"
      http://www.smitechasia.com.sg/product.php?selected_product_id=122

      Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) sends minute electric currents that a patient is unable to feel. It measures biological impedance to measure body composition.
      InBody 3.0 measures body composition using the latest BIA technology rather than relying on empirical estimates. Our method uses multi-frequencies (5д, 50 д, 250 д and 500 д) and measures various parts of the body more accurately than other instruments.
      InBody 3.0 is used by specialists.

      InBody 3.0 created a new standard for measuring "Body Composition". With its features and high efficiency, it is used in various settings such as diagnosis centers, clinics for internal medicine, gynecology, plastic surgery, and obesity, Oriental medical center and others. In addition, the InBody 3.0 is an essential instrument in fitness centers where people want professional analysis. It is easy to measure body composition.

      In Singapore, there are only a few known places that have the Inbody service... One is in Alexandra hospital but it has a consultation fee of $100/+ and another one is California Fitness but it only allow members to use it...

      But here in LFI, the inbody service is a mere $10/ plus GST and consultation is absolutely free...

      From this machine, you can have a 95% accurate diagnosis on your body's composition and see how exatly healthy you are... This machine with an experienced consultant can even detect the coming of some diseases like kidney failure...

      Here's an example of the result of the Inbody machine...

      does the forum owners knows how to discern fact from myth? you said there are many avenues to prove a claim, pray what are they?

       

       

      A court statement... now your turn... if a court statement states that this is defamatory, then...

      how will owner discern which party is telling the truth?

       

      That's besides the point, there are many avenues to present whether a claim is fact or false... but the main question is does the owner of the forum hold no responsibility to knowingly allow defamatory posts to exist?

      what if you are falsifying statements against the user, and removal of these posts result in the said user suing sgforums for pyschological trauma, attack on his character etc

      who pay? you pay? you will hold this responsibility?

      The key point in the arguement is if the Owner knows as a fact that the claim is false and chose to allow the post to exist...

      there is no strong case for defamation, 'plaintiff' is unable to prove loss, and with certainty 'plaintiff' is unable to afford legal representation

      it is unprofessional to throw up legal terms just to coerce people who do not agree with you

      Again the arguement here is what are the owner's responsibility for knowingly allow defamation to continue in their publication...

      It not a matter of how big or small the case is... its not about going to court or not... its about does the law allow the owner to knowingly let defamation to continue on their publication and hold no responsibility...

      this little debate with me and eagle is to find knowledge and the truth, not to sue anybody...

      So back to the question which you keep avoiding.

      Is sgforums responsible a not for such a post?

       

      It's extremely easy to cover one's tracks, start an account and accuse, defame you, in sgforums. So if you want to take legal action, are you going to sue sgforums?

       

      Note: I'm giving you the case where the IP cannot be traced. I would also like to see pacer going all the way to UK to take legal action there to get the IP address, then come back to Singapore and take legal action to get the owner of the IP address from the local service provider.

       

      And hor...

      1) The forum is already not registered in Singapore. Just because it is named sgforums doesn't mean it is registered here.

      2) It is not a broadcasting station. There's no licence, not is it authorised by law to broadcast anything. A forum is a place for chit chats, not for broadcasting.

       

      I'm really finding it hard to keep bringing you back to the point because you kept going off tangent. I shall reiterate my point:
      Pacer's efforts will most likely come to naught.

      I don't see any reason why you like to keep going off tangent.

       

      I don't know yet because it involves United Kingdom statutes which I am not fimiliar with which I've already mentioned above...

      But with that saying, I bet you too don't know whether sgforums could be held responsible... unless you know UK's statutes...

      My previous statements were based by Singapore's statutes, so its nulled about sgforums but remains for singapore based forums...

       

      So conclusion, I can't say for now whether sforums can be held responsible, but unless you can state whether sgforums can't be held responsible either (since its based in UK, UK laws applies), the arguement is on hold for now...

      Use unjust laws to curb civil liberties is also wrong.

      I don't know much about the details of the case, but I don't find it unjust at all...

      If what you said the truth, its the truth, no one can argue with that... But if what you say is a lie, you have to take responsibility for what you said...That could be more just than that?

      If the defendent can't argue his case that he speaks the truth, what does that say about him....?

      For one thing, YOU DON'T DO THAT IN THE PRESENCE OF THE COURT DURING A LEGAL PROCEEDING... In any country in the world, such action is a contempt of court...

      It is common knowledge around the world, you don't disrespect the court during the legal proceeding...

      You want to argue that the court system is flawed, be my guest but don't do that during a legal proceeding...

       

      Out side the court, this include the vicinity of the court house, you can wear what ever T-shirt you want, but remember, freedom of expression is in no way a shield to defamation...

      This is the exact reason for the Contempt rule... Many of you are see only a kid wearing a T-Shirt and getting jailed... Don't get stuck in this tunnel vision...

      The court is a place of Law and Order... proceeding and judgement are made there and lives are changed... as such, such place must be respected... If you don't respect the court, you basiclly saying you don't respect the Law...

      This is not about a T-Shirt, its about contempt in court...

    • Opps... wrong act...

      it should be Supreme Court of Judicature Act Chapter 322 section 7

      Contempt
      (1) The High Court and the Court of Appeal shall have power to punish for contempt of court.

      [16/93]

      (2) Wilful disposal by a garnishee, otherwise than in accordance with law or by leave of the court, of any property attached in his hands or under his control by a notice of court, shall be deemed to be contempt. (3) Wilful disobedience by a corporation to any order punishable by attachment may be punished by attachment of the directors or other officers of the corporation who are responsible for, or are knowingly a party to, such wilful disobedience.

    • Subordinate Courts Act Chapter 321 Section 8

      1) The subordinate courts shall have power to punish for contempt of court where the contempt is committed —

      (a) in the face of the court; or(b) in connection with any proceedings in the subordinate courts.

      [4/96]

      (2) Where contempt of court is committed in the circumstances mentioned in subsection (1), the court may impose imprisonment for a term not exceeding 6 months or a fine not exceeding $2,000 or both.

      [4/96]

      (3) The court may discharge the offender or remit the punishment if the court thinks it just to do so.

      [4/96]

      (4) In any case where the contempt is punishable as an offence under section 175, 178, 179, 180 or 228 of the Penal Code (Cap. 224), the court may, in lieu of punishing the offender for contempt, refer the matter to the Attorney-General with a view to instituting criminal proceedings against the offender.

    • This is giving me a headache coz it involves United Kingdom statutes which I'm not fimiliar with...

      Defemation act chapter 31

      something from the act:

      (2) For this purpose author, editor and publisher have the following meanings, which are further explained in subsection (3)

      author means the originator of the statement, but does not include a person who did not intend that his statement be published at all;
      editor means a person having editorial or equivalent responsibility for the content of the statement or the decision to publish it; and
      publisher means a commercial publisher, that is, a person whose business is issuing material to the public, or a section of the public, who issues material containing the statement in the course of that business.

      but basicly, we have established that (1) in Singapore's case that the author is responsible for his words even if he hides behind a nick name... its just a matter of finding him

      (2) as long as the forum is regestered in Singapore, it is a broadcasting station...

      (3) sgforums... requires knowledge in United Kingdom Defemation act...

      If you're refering to limitation of liability, they are not liable for the initial defemation made... but by refusing to do anything is abetting...

      Penal code section 108 states "A person abets an offence who abets either the commission of an offence, or the commission of an act which would be an offence, if committed by a person capable by law of committing an offence with the same intention or knowledge as that of the abettor."

      Terms and condition vs Penal code and defemation act...

      you can't look at it in an english perspective... you must look at it as a legal perspective... Chapter 75 Defemation act section 3 clearly states any form of communication is publication by an author... and an author doesn't only mean some who writes... it is the person who communicate...
