Even Judiciary reports being fixed by Singapore Parliament too...

Okay, maybe in this case = inadvertently. But it still shows how much the SG Parliament is trying too hard tomicro manage things: perhaps a +ve way forward would be for parliament to just give guidelines within the penal code and other statutes: e.g. the 'recommended' punishment for e.g. theft, extortion, uncensored films, managing a brothel: i.e.: the words 'shall be liable to...' rather than 'for a term of not less than XX years'...
PS: there is a Probation of Offenders (Amendment) Act 1993 (Act 37 of 1993): perhaps this act can specify that those with IQ below certain level will be more favourably chosen for probation in lieu of jail etc.
Where parliament is concerned about judges being overly lenient, parliament may make clarification within the penal code that the minimum sentence shall apply to first time offenders without any significant mitigating factors.

One memory card= worth the modesty of TWO women???!!!

The crazy (biased) laws (/courts) of Singapore:
"For destroying the electronic record with the intention of preventing it from being used as evidence, Koo could have been jailed up to two years and fined.
For insulting the modesty of the woman, he could have been jailed up to one year and fined. "
Brings back the recollection of the pastor guy who was jailed for lying about petrol tank level to ICA staffs: was initially jailed for lying but jail was converted to $4000 fine upon appeal because the original crime of less than 3/4 tank full was not a jail-able one.

LHL: First class political leadership and First World Parliament are separate issues...

Marriage decay= one step towards Armageddon...

Humanity has finally found a way to self-destruct itself.

To reduce the HIV rates and abandoned kids due to sex for fun/ sex- before marriage phenomenon

To reduce the HIV rates and abandoned kids due to sex for fun/ sex- before marriage phenomenon: e.g. '$20k wedding called off after bride and groom fight'That is why i feel that on ROM marriage records: all divorcees, separated, remarried persons with any kids under 21yrs old will be marked out as having existing dependents so that anybody they should marry will have to be aware of their preexisting parenthood commitments such that where mainteinence payments are concerned: precedents will ALWAYS be for children from earlier relationships/ marriages: to the extent of garnishee order on salary/ confiscation of properties etc (even if the new family needs to depend on social welfare etc). (Too many men give EXCUSE not to pay mainteinence for past children by claiming that their new families are new/ more important commitments).

Property cartel REDAS pressures gahmen to line its member's pockets with more money.

Me thinks that any professionalism/ work pride in REDAS is long evaporated. No longer an organisation priding itself for providing good and affordable housing to Singaporeans, REDAS, like some PAP politicians (see below (appended)) are probably filled with rent seekers, out to exploit the poor in the name of 'dignity': basically a financial arms race amongst the rich to see who can exploit the poor most and drive the most flashy luxury car to catch the other's attention if not envy.

Professional organisation members in Singapore seem to be driven by greed and envy: service to humanity has become a long forgotten creed.
