Ah Longs are smart they usually have pre-paid line that is not registered under their name.

Now technology can pinpoint locations quite accurately liao........just look at your smartphones.
It not a matter of can or cannot............its a matter of want or dun wan.
SPF not willing to 'waste' resources going after Ah Longs......Ah Longs are not terrorists....they dun threaten the elites only the peasants.
Anyway those that can be caught here are only the low level members of the syndicates like runners etc.
The mind behind the syndicates operate from overseas.....

There are no loansharks in Singapore. There are only licensed moneylenders. All approved by the government.

The only crime is how these licensed moneylenders 'persuade' their debtors to return the money+interest.

The SPF and MHA could not measure up with the illegal ah longs. That's a FACT. From what I know, they lost the battle for the past 2 decades. It took as genius to 'combat' the problem.

Difference between legal and illegal is very simple. One of them pay taxes.

The business model is still the same.
They are lending mainly to desperate customers, who for some reason or other, were not able to get loans from financial institutions.
The lenders will find that customers will eventually be borrowing from lender A to pay lender B.
Heng if u happen to be lender B, sway if u are lender A.
Thank you PAP for this brilliant idea to boost spending and lending.

With two giant gambling dens, sure a lot of money changing hands without any exchange of tangbile products. This is a sincity and no wonder why religion has expanded over the years and that is another commercial in the making...the rest is history.

When someone gone missing in South China Sea along the coast of Malaysia, their police actions were an eye-opener, same for the limping Mas Salamat incident. When someone fell into Singapore river, it took many personnel to dive and hunt and the dead can only be found when it floated a day or few days later. Very efficient otherwise how to explain a full ST page of president award winners on National Day?

do you think police are also interesting in HC shopping spree and losing of billions of peasants monies? :p
