Penal punishments for dual citizenship in Singapore?

Are there any criminal punishments for dual citizenship other than taking away your sg citizenship? I dont think there are any, the worst the singapore government can do is to take away your sg citizenship, which might not be a bad thing if you are in a better country.

CONSTITUTION OF THE REPUBLIC OF SINGAPORE

Deprivation of citizenship on acquisition of foreign citizenship
134. —(1) The Government may, by order, deprive a citizen of Singapore of his citizenship if the Government is satisfied that —

(a) he has, while of or over the age of 18 years, at any time after 6th April 1960 acquired by registration, naturalisation or other voluntary and formal act (other than marriage) the citizenship of any country outside Singapore or having so acquired such citizenship before the age of 18 years continues to retain it after that age; or

(b) the citizen, being a woman who is a citizen of Singapore by registration under Article 123 (2), has acquired the citizenship of any country outside Singapore by virtue of her marriage to a person who is not a citizen of Singapore.

(2) Where the Government has made an order under this Article depriving a citizen of Singapore of his citizenship, he shall cease to be a citizen with effect from the date of the order.

sorry? what is "this is therefore again"? and what is "if really depend"? it really depends?

wth are you writing?

i dont agree with you. there is one law for everyone. even if you are filthy rich, the government may rescind your citizenship.

All the richChinese adn Indonesian's as example who have got SG passports do not live here....There is a loophole when if you put 1.5M SGD in a fund a PR is granted to you asap and if you invest or list may be a quick road to Singapore passport. Then these guys go back to their countries....Great TAX advantages staying here but these guys do not need it but to ONLy park their wealth which cannot be bought back to China or Indonesia. You need a local address for the bank and a house or condo can provide that.....

It will be very interesting to ask HOW MANY PR actually REMAIN in Singapore? How many days they stay? How many NEW SG passport holders (new citizens) actually live in Singapore?

And by stripping your citizenship you will lose all benefits of being a Singapore - no more HDB no voting. Perhaps they will also forfeit your HDB flat too.

Did S'pore as a member of the UN General Assembly sign and ratify the UN Charter on Human Rights?

http://www.un.org/en/documents/udhr/
Article 15.
•(1) Everyone has the right to a nationality.
•(2) No one shall be arbitrarily deprived of his nationality nor denied the right to change his nationality.

The Singapore Constitution 134 is in direct contradiction to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

sg citizenship requires 10 years stay in sg. one of the hardest to get in the world. sg pr is easy though.

why do people like to use "angmoh" instead of caucasian or white? i never figured that out. most caucasians do not have red hair?

"arbitrarily" makes all the difference. sg constituition does not contradict the un charter because it does not "arbitrarily" removes one's citizenship.

yes, right to easy of entry. ha ha ha. funny how illerate retards like you keepl saying "yay, we are better than indonesia now".

can you imagine the french waking up everyday thinking "yay we are better than the ghanians now"

pathetic.

>> refers to light color of their hair. I guess Asian were fascinated with how hairy these gweilow were and the color of their hair added to fascination. Also, unlike Indians who are just as hairy, in the case of the Indians their dark skin pretty much hides their black hair. And in case of Ang Mor they even have red hair carrot tops. Imagine that over their fair skin

what is the point of visa free access unless you are a frequent traveller. for normal people, visa free or not makes no difference.
