I came across this article in 15/1/14 Zaobao paper:
This PR Li Yue kicks up a big fuss over a random police check.
He keeps on mentioning that he’s a PR for 14 years, therefore he has legitimate status & the police got no right to check him. The police was doing their job to keep our streets safe. So what if he’s a PR for 14 years?! As far as I know, even true blue Singaporeans are being checked, body searched or even brought to police station for questioning!
This PR even claims that he has nightmares after this body search incident… My advice to him is to get out of my country for good!! PR only, still want to be exempted from police random check. He thinks he’s above the law, is it?!

- “Do the police have sufficient reasons or legality to randomly search the bodies of legal residents? Because at the time, I clearly indicated that I’m a nearby resident. I even showed my PR blue I/C.”
- “Also, I have a scholarly look. Why was my I/C checked and my body searched?”
- The writer apparently went back home and called the police to complain. The police then explained the situation to him. He said, “I’m not satisfied with his (police) explanation. At midnight, I was not able to sleep.”
- “I have lived in Singapore for 17 years. I have been a PR for 14 years. I’ve always obeyed the law.”
