Cenarious SG

Hocklez SG

ditzy SG

Technically illegal, but mata don't like the extra workload, so they usually close all their eyes. Laughing

de_middle SG

PointBlue SG

All those auntie uncle doing taichi at the void deck should be arrested for illegal gathering.

According to Section 141 Cap 224 of the Penal Code,

An assembly of 5 or more persons with a common intention to commit a crime is considered an "unlawful assembly"

Well, this ruling has a lot of loopholes though.

photo_seeker SG

Precisely. Some people aren’t understanding this ruling well enough

de_middle SG

PointBlue SG

Doing taichi is a crime! Twisted Evil

hisoka SG

how do you prove that you don't have intention? and they can arrest you for that and then later say they have checked and you don';t have intention

dragg SG

when the people up there meet for lunch i wonder if they applied for permits too.

kawasaki2 SG

This ruling is SIAO!

Illogical. I strongly believe that this ruling is being imposed just as a show-off to other neighbours in the region as to how efficient and that our laws are one of the tightest...

toyota-corolla SG

then if i go sentosa in group of 8, i must prepare to get caught liao.

davidche SG

They dont arrest. That law applies more towards law court.

ceecookie SG

They will allow you to gather more than 5 people,provided you "tip" each officer some money.

The current rate is $50 per extra half-hour per officer Laughing
