She needs some grammar lessons.

The phrases used in her stickers are colloquial Singlish in their original forms, u twit. To change them to be grammatically correct will cause them to lose their local flavor. Graffiti seen in the west are also based on their american slang or black-speak used in their ghettos, they are not grammatically correct either. So stop being a smart aleck here.

'Sticker Lady' goes legit

Go big or go home - that is what the "Sticker Lady" has to say about her latest work, a big circular sticker with the word "Opportunity".

But this time round, no one will be arresting her for vandalism.

Last Thursday afternoon, Miss Samantha Lo, 25, completed an artwork for The Substation. The arts organisation had invited the local artist to display her work at their building's side alley.

Dubbed the "Sticker Lady" after she allegedly put up stickers on traffic lights, with phrases such as "Press Once Can Already", and "Press Until Shiok", Miss Lo was arrested at her home on June 3 for vandalism.

She is currently on bail pending further investigations.

Though she has not been speaking to the media, she has been active online.

She reappeared on Facebook six days ago with a status message thanking people for their support. It got more than 200 "likes".

She also posted a picture of her latest work at The Substation with the cryptic caption "Go big or go home".

Five other works are displayed at the 38m-long alley between The Substation and Peranakan Museum. Newest edition

Miss Lo's artwork is the newest addition to the alley. It is the only one which is pasted to the wall. The others are all painted on.

Said The Substation's general manager, Ms Emily Hoe, 38: "We have a nice, long blank wall. It seemed like an ideal place for artists to contribute and create artwork.

"We see it as a canvas to promote art form which is not as mainstream."

The art centre put the offer out for Miss Lo in early June, around the time when the debate over "art or vandalism" over her stickers was raging.

Two weeks ago, members of the local art community held a town hall meeting to discuss issues raised by Miss Lo's arrest.

Given the timing of Miss Lo's artwork, the decision to invite artists to display their work might have seemed like The Substation's way of adding to the discussion.

But Ms Hoe refuted this, saying: "It wasn't in response to that meeting. This is something that we started several months ago."

A 26-year-old woman who is believed to have painted the words "My Grandfather Road" on several roads here last year will be charged in court on Tuesday together with her 30-year old male accomplice.

The woman is alleged to have painted the words on sections of Robinson Road and Maxwell Road between 17 to 21 May last year. Circular stickers printed with various captions were also found pasted on a pavement near Lau Pa Sat and on a road traffic sign along Robinson Road.

In connection with the police reports made by the Land Transport Authority, the police said they arrested the woman at her home on June 3 last year. Following her arrest, the identity of her male accomplice was established, and he was arrested upon his return from overseas at Changi Airport on June 11.

The police said in a news release on Monday that the woman faces 15 charges of mischief, and the man faces one charge of mischief and seven charges of abetment to commit mischief. If convicted, both of them face a fine, up to a 2-year jail term, or both.

Police have arrested a 25-year-old woman who is believed to have vandalised several roads in Singapore.

Between May 17 to 21 this year, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) saw that the words "MY GRANDFATHER ROAD" were painted along Robinson Road and Maxwell Road and reported the matter to the Police.

It also reported that circular stickers printed with captions were pasted on a pavement around Lau Pa Sat and on a road traffic sign along Robinson Road.

The female suspect was arrested at her residence in the eastern part of Singapore on June 3. The officers also found several paint-stained stencils and several pieces of stickers printed with captions. These items were seized for investigation.

Investigation is ongoing. The police are also working with LTA on earlier reports of round stickers found affixed on other pedestrian crossings at various places.

The case is classified as Vandalism under Section 3 of the Vandalism Act, Chapter 341. A person who is convicted for the offence shall be punished with a fine not exceeding $2,000 or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding to 3 years and shall be liable to caning subjected to the Criminal Procedure Code 2010.

[shittypore]

i can assure all. she will be let off,becasue she is a her.

Just stern warning, if jail her come 2016 lose more votes from youngsters. Pappy
will only self destruct emself from now till 2016.

 

[blackmondy]

Must cane her for wasting police resources

That's too cruel. A few slaps on the butt is sufficient.

 

[kingrant]

This is how the PAP will tell her this is not your grandfather's road anyhow can stick posters and graffiti?? :(

Agree that any sentencing is too high handed compared to Amy Cheong. Again, one system of justice for locals and one for FTs?

 

[chootchiew]

Instead of using her talent and energy to become economically productive she uses it to destroy public property

Hope the authorities will slap the maximum sentence on this irresponsible bitch

We need to import more high quality PRC talent to dilute this useless stock

She look more like a butch than a bitch . But just a young butch and not much harm done, so just let her off la, a few smack piak piak on the backside should be enough.

Her work done as compared to the PRC gal who pang sai on the floor , which one more jialat ?

 

[soIsee]

Just stern warning, if jail her come 2016 lose more votes from youngsters. Pappy
will only self destruct emself from now till 2016.

A person like her who would rather live off her parents then to find a proper living needs to be taught a very stern lesson.

She should be used to warn all like minded young punks not to ' find trouble becos got too much time on their hands.

Right now she would be in a lock up waiting to be charged tomorrow in court.

And for a pampered girl like her to face the harsh reality of being locked up in a holding cell with low lives and criminals would serve to teach her a lesson she would never forget.

 

[Rogue Trader]

She could have made one specially for the Braddell road vicinity: PROSTITUTE PRESS!

 

[melzp]

I think judges having headaches for the penalty.
Ask her "what sentence she opt for" ? Or rather
what her expectations are.

 

[andyfisher]

knn vandalise for what? people in the west and europe hate this shit, we should not import this dirty habit into sg.

if her hand itchy, draw on canvas and put up art show la, knn

I hate this graffiti, you travel on the paris metro, knn all the train got 'artwork' one, very disgusting.

furthermore she is ugly, so really CMI. pls tangkap, lockup and rotan

Most likely the judge will ask her to attend grammar school
