Man charged with stealing tins of baby milk powder

[Leongsam]

nope, but we can blame the government for lousy economic planning

The govt has done a fantastic job. That's why Singapore has one the highest per capita incomes in the world.

Same too, the Soviet Union has done a fantastic job too as a world power before its collapse.

Faulty logic. Pricing is way much more than this. Business factor this in, and address it if disproportionate or out of hand.

This unfortunate episode is not going to get people back to breast feeding

Highly publicised episodes of shoplifting can always be used as a pretext by businesses to jack up prices.

 

[sense]

When a man has to resort to stealing groceries, he must be really down and out. What happened to the baby bonus?

Strongly agree.

per capital GDP which measures nothing of significance, is skewed at the top brackets by tax cheaters.

Good point ionzu! Too bad can't up you again. Need to spread my points. Will do so again one day.

Frankly 5 tins of baby formula is really difficult to hide. If he so brazen it may not be his first foray.

We don't know if it was his first foray or even if he is actually just a habitual thief and not really a desperate father.

But 5 tins could also be that he knew he was taking a big risk this time and didn't want to do it again anytime soon.

Maybe he was helping his neighbours? They needed milk powder too?

Ah Leong never rebutt this statement of yours ah?

1. It's "per capita".

2. The purpose of cheating the taxman is so that you aren't included in the top earner category you twit.

3. Your IQ is low.

He steal baby milk powder the purpose is clear to feed his child not himself.
For a working adult to buy milk powder is not issue here.
He might be tempted to steal when he feels it is easy n worthwhile to bring out of store without paying.A sudden invasion of devil into him.

Evidently you have not paid tax in Singapore for a long time. For most taxpayers, there are no salary figures that they submit to tax authority as their employer is expected to submit that en-bloc beforehand and all they need to do is to open the statement already prepared for them on the tax portal and click on the button "submit".

Hi bro, that moron has completely lost touch of what's happening in S'pore and that's why he spewing all these nonsense from his far-away in NZ. The best thing is that he knows "fuck off" about things here and yet wants to speak as if with authority. Now, that's a real twit.

When the cashiers were looking the other way he casually walked out of the supermart carrying 5 tins of milk! Sounds about right.

 

[cantbeassed]

Only in third world country will you find someone stealing milk powder for his kids. That's so sad.

Bro IHP, it is okay lah. He always ignore me. Better that he ignores me.

The only time he talk to me is when he infracted me. Not once, but twice. :(
