before that, there's an article on how the police are
over-stretched .....
BUT still maintains a low crime rate as well .... 
apparently, we have one of the lowest police to citizens ratio
in the developed world ...
you know what I think ? ....
low crime rate cos many petty criminals are not caught ....
assault cases are not a sizeable offense in Singapore (
), while if you hit anyone in a western
country, even if it's a pub fight, you're going into the brig .....
here, you file a complaint in civil court ....
go to marina or boat quay late at night, and see the young punks
hammering and smashing at each other .....
nevermind mas selamat .... low crime rate ? ... remember when
neighbourhood police posts used to be 24 hours ? .....
our police form has different priorities.
get the shit beaten out of you in public, not seizable.
stand outside of the cpf building with a sign, fully armed riot
squads show up immediately.
