Singapore Police: Complacent or Misplaced Priority?

[Singa Crew]

"I called the police again and reported the incident and the exchange,
A guy from Jurong HQ called me to say the IO in charge will contact us.
I waited up the whole night for someone to come or call me - Nothing."

I came across this blog about how loan sharks managed to repeatedly harass a family after the government announced tougher measures against loan sharks in the Straits Times. The police, it seems, were 'helpless' to do anything. Even something as simple as returning a phone call to the victim seemed to cause them great difficulties.

So what are our police doing? Too busy guarding Chee Soon Juan in Changi?

We know the police are not complacent! There's a few incidents I can remember...

1) They had more than a dozen armed police officers standing sentry all night long over CSJ when he was doing that peaceful protest at Hong Lim....

2) They deployed CID officers (I saw 3-4 in a picture taken by eyewitness), had a couple of police vans and dozen odd officers just to stop one small group of peaceful protesters. And those matas turned up within a minute of the TBT group setting off from Parliament House.

3) During the filming of One Nation, some officers from MDA turned up to confiscate the film WITHOUT anyone notifying them. Sixth sense? And when they needed backup, CID officers turned up within minutes.

4) The matas deployed 2 big 'ang chias' just to catch some otakus playing with their action figures in a park...

So if they are not complacent, they must have misplaced their priorities!

If Ms. Tan wishes for prompt police response and attention to the case, maybe she could erm... tell the I.O in charge that the 'loan sharks' look like CSJ and SDP members. Then she will surely have a team of high ranking police officers stationed round her flat 24/7... And the culprits harressing her would be caught in no time at all!

The fastest way to get the attention of the Police is to rope in 3 friends or family members and stand in front of CPF building holding placards. The complaint on an A4 size paper is to fixed on a placard and copies of the same on the other 3.

Shortly after a mini ang chia of 2 vans with an ASP and mix of 16 male and female officers will appear in riot gear. The ASP will be perspiring profusely and will stammer as he ask you what is the problem. Tell him that you wish to lodge a report.

Note: contrary to popular belief, no special t-shirt is required.

The job of the Sinkie matas is to protect the Lee family and the PAPpies.
This is and always has been their top priority, and it has been admitted to be so in a court of law, when one of their kind was giving evidence.

Helping and protecting Sinkie peasants was never the job of the matas. They may occasionally respond to our calls for assistance whenever the matas are free or have nothing much to do.

At the rate this govt is behaving, its a probability. Your avatar suggestion appears more promising.
