I suspected that the PAP is connected to the triad, thank you for confirming that. As the adage says that if it walks like a triad, talks like a triad, it must be a triad.
that explains the heavy security for some elites when they travel even within singapore. many paths must have been crossed along the way.
A successful people's revolution in sinkapore will require the leadership of the triads. When the triads get fed up with the PAP, that's when change will take place.
Another scenario would be the arrival of triads from Malaysia and beyond.
Let me add 2 more...drugs and loansharking....SS/triad, illegal gambling and prostitution will NEVER be eradicated.

Triads from malaysia and singapore are interlinked. Triads in singapore had already evolved, most have already become sucessful business, dealing in ktvs, pubs and properties. Seventh month is the money generating month for triads, its call extra pocket money.
I'm not faulting you... In HK, China even Taiwan... who will admit he or she is a triad member even if he/she really is!!!With a username like yours, you can't really fault me can you?

Like what GoldenDragon has mentioned, the biggest gangster who are those with loads of monies... But will they admit they are the BOSS of a triad backing the triad with their wealth? The answer is NO....
You're right, in HK we called it “安家费”These are usually the ones who have now made it. They are highly likely to be legitimate bizmen. But never test them thinking they can be bullied or suckered.
If the need arises, many will be prepared to die for these chaps as long as their families are taken care of.
The influence of the organisers is closely linked to the amount of cash collected from biddings. If end of the night below 100k, quite shameful! I attended one many years ago when a single person spent almost 300k bidding for items deemed non-essential to him. He returned the items for another round of bidding.
i last went to an temple 7th month auction dinner maybe 26-27 years ago at the selatar farmway organised by the AST. those day, one ribbon ard $25 each, almost every shop owners along jalan kayu road will buy at least one regardless of religon afflication. the two items to attract the highest bid confirm the "black gold" and "bee tang". both items can go to ten of thousands, quite amazing considering a hdb 3rm flat cost ard $40k only.
I thought is the RCs?Still got but in new forms. Today's dirtiest triad is the PAP with its mafia organisation PA.
Just curious, why these people still want to be the boss of triads after they have loads of money? Especially if their business is now legit.I'm not faulting you... In HK, China even Taiwan... who will admit he or she is a triad member even if he/she really is!!!

Time to attend another, bro. 26-27 years is a long time ago. Yes, that's AST territory. 'Bee tang' and 'black gold' continues to be 'bestsellers' today.
Used to chiong at one of the nightspot inside Seletar Airbase. Thereafter, roti prata at Jalan Kayu. But a major raid by the police about 2 years ago led to closure of these outlets. Many AST chaps also up bus. Had their ID registered in SSB records.
