Singapore is not a police state, but of course, the police
belongs to the state, I gather that, since Singapore is a peaceful
country, the police got less job to do, most probably they would
walks around and see gals, or catch gals in geyland, some even set
up legal pros business to increase their income. Always remember
that police are connected to crook, both play their game and
sometime both share it. Of course i am stating those high ranks and
full time policemen, for those doing NS, they are there just
passing time.
And please remember, police are also human, bound to corruption,
sex and molesting etc etc...the only different is police can
cover up their crime, citizen will be expose fully and taken
as an example.
To what i see in my neighbourhood police office, I think police
should cut staff, trim and be lean, if ICA needs staff, some from
CIA or Anti vice etc etc can be transfer over, they dun have to
employ more peoples, however, our police depts seem to work thru
individualism, CIA is CIA, ISA and ISA, TP is TP etc etc, each
pushing each other to take responsibilities, that is very sad, Mr.
Wong Kan Seng should make police interchangeable so that all depts
and sections can be more flexible and better interconnected, it
will also curb corruption and abuse of power, therefore the
managing of the police that belong to the state is critical.
It is of no use writing reports after reports just for show,
police should be practical men doing practical tasks, rather than
just sitting behind a desk writing reports, they should make an
effort to visit the place or areas where the crimes occur as
reported. But it seem that our police force are also Kiasee and
Kiasu type.
Therefore in the end, I conclude that our police force is there
for show only, with their presence, at least the crooks stay away,
but to fire a piston correctly, i think they are still far far
away.
hallo, mountain turtle, Civil servants also interchange within
depts, my frien from SPF went to CNB ect.
ICA, SPF, CNB, ICA watever all all interconnected since for so
long already.
