But we are now talking about abalone related cases. CID (vice squad), ICA and MOM have personnel who are all integrated to create a comfortable nest for vice and vice related activities. ICA and MOM allows them in while CID (vice squad) ensures that they are taken care of once in Singapore. The main contact people are those that operate vice and alcohol related activities in Singapore and need foreign talents to do the job here. ANyway, I shouldn't be telling you these things right, you of course know these things all the while.
Your points are all pertinent. I fully agree with what you've raised. The problem is FEAR. Let me explain.
If you want to rid S'pore of women foreigners who make a living in the night scene, very easy. Jus bar all PRC,s Thais, Viets, Indons and Filipinas between the ages of 17-35 yrs old. Problem solved immediately, sui sui. But are our political leaders prepared to do that? Nope. I doubt any of the officers would even dare suggest to their bosses.
Once in, they congregate at Havelock Rd, Jln Sultan and Geylang. Police raids these establishment. Looks good for stats but the real problem will never be solved. No one in the SPF dares to tell their bosses it is not working and a mere waste of time and resources. Why? Coz whoever raises these valid points will be asked why an interest in that area! That's the work culture in the civil service.
