Okay, so I just received my HRW this afternoon. According to the SMS, on the first day of my HRW, I have to take an ART test and submit the result to their website. If the result is negative, then I can leave my flat. Since I am not a COVID case, only a close contact of one. It also said that...

Problem is... I don't have smart phone. And I don't want to spend a 100+ dollars (on phone and data plan) just to get this app. Carrying around my vacc card seems to be less troublesome...

So from next week onward, unvaccinated people will not be able to enter shopping malls. Link here: https://sg.news.yahoo.com/up-to-2-vaccinated-per-group-can-dine-in-at-hawker-centres-enter-malls-from-13-oct-044711058.html But how are we going to prove our vaccination status? I am fully...

what new protocols? swab tests can don't go?

Has anyone else encountered problems while booking for a swab test appointment via the Appointment Booking Portal (https://swab.hpb.gov.sg/)? Since yesterday, I have been trying numerous times to get an OTP sent to my mobile phone but, so far, it is not working. And without an OTP, an...

Just repeating what I was told. That's why I am seeking clarification from actual police officers.

Hi, if you are a former police officer or currently serving as one, I would like to ask you some questions for an article I am writing. I hope I don't offend any of you with my questions, but I need to get some facts right before I publish my article. In case I get sued. #1. Is it true that...

Hi, are you an editor or writer from Malaysia? Or do you know anyone in the Malaysian publishing industry? I am close to self-publishing my book now and I am looking around for a printing company to print my book. I did a bit of research and realized that printing costs are cheaper in Malaysia...

Like I said before when Amos Yee was attacked at a shopping mall, I do believe in the freedom of speech. As a writer, I believe in the right to freedom of speech. And I believe in Amos Yee’s right to say whatever he wants and wherever he wants, even when I disagree with whatever he’s saying...

After their removal from the shopping malls, where can they go? Condominiums? Office buildings? But what if other places decide to follow suit and use technology as an excuse to cut down on the number of security guards at their premises? Where would those guards go? Let me tell you one hard...

Hey everybody! I did it! 2 sample chapters from Guards Gone Wild! (my book) have been converted to PDF format and posted on my blog. They are not too refined at the moment, but don’t worry! My friend, who did the layout work for the samples, assured me that the final version for the book...

Thank you all for your advice. Today I checked with Paypal's customer service and got my answer. UOB actually shares a one-way relationship with Paypal. You will be able to withdraw money from your Paypal and deposit it into your UOB bank account. HOWEVER, you cannot withdraw money from...

Anyone here has a UOB bank account that's linked to Paypal? Your advice is welcomed. I am just asking because on the Paypal website, there is such a note: "Note: Top-up is enabled with all banks in Singapore, except UOB, at present." It says Top-up is the transfer of money in your bank...

But an alert armed guard could have realized something was wrong, from the unnatural interaction between teller and "customer". I mean, normally, when you withdraw money at the counter, you need to fill in a form and sign your name and all that. If the robber skipped all the formalities and got...

If the police have CCTV footage, they should release it to the public. So we can be on the lookout for this ang moh. He could be happily strolling down Orchard Road right now, passing by hundreds of Singaporeans who would all be clueless as to his real identity.

Well, things have already gotten so bad that an unarmed ang moh can simply walk into a bank and take away its money. Easiest robbery in the history of banking. And even in this country where there are CCTVs everywhere, the police seems to be unable to catch or put up pictures of this mysterious...

That's my advice to banks in Singapore. Because according to this The Star Online article, there was no security guard present at the Standard Chartered bank that got robbed by the mysterious Australian robber. And apparently, the mysterious Australian robber wasn't even armed. Which...

Well, if you don't have Batman-like skills, you shouldn't try to be Batman. Just having a sense of justice is not enough.

It’s probably a bad idea to get your boyfriend or husband to march down to the security office and create a scene. Recently, All Singapore Stuff published a story about a female Certis Cisco employee who was sexually harassed by a “security manager” while she was stationed at the National...

Well, Karate would be better than Taekwondo because, in Karate, they focus a lot more on hand techniques. You punch with your fists and block with your arms. Which is good advice for a street situation, because you certainly shouldn't perform flashy high kicks in front of multiple opponents. You...
