Omega was formed in the 80s at the old 'chia geng' prison. The founder name was a mat called "yanbai" (currently detained under criminal law section 55). It was a pure malay only gang and their main 'business' is drug trafficking. The difference between Omega and other Malay gang are most of the member do not have tattoos and they do not accept other ethic to join the gang. In Changi prison, the 2 dominant mat gang are 369 & Omega, these 2 groups often have fights and gang crash inside the Changi prison compound and on the street. If you see the mats with lots of tattoos on his body they are most likely to be a 369 member.
As our new Chinese generation become more educated, the Chinese gang was over ruled by the Malay gang in terms of population and brutality.

Bismi-llāhi ar-rahmāni ar-rahīmi. Omega is jihad and Omega members are mujahideen. To jihad is to strive in the way of Allah, and Omega symbolises a struggle. Omega members struggle, sacrificing money, blood, limb and life to prevent the oppression of Malay Muslim IDs by Chinese infidels. Omega is not blind to members of Chinese SS (secret society) beating up and bullying our fellow brothers to showcase their masculinity. But the worst are the Malays in Chinese SS, who pray to Chinese idols, perform Chinese rituals and join the Chinese infidels to crush other Malay Muslims! Worst than the Chinese infidels are these Malays who betray their race, abandon their religion. They shed the blood of their brothers while glorifying their oppressors. They’re a norm, not an exception. Look at the Malay leaders in Singapore slaving under the iron fist of Chinese PAP . like puppets! PAP tells them to be moderate Muslims, they nod. PAP tells them to sanction organ donation they kick Islam away and abide by the ways of the infidel Chinese PAP. Malays in Chinese SS and in the PAP while they suppress their Malay Muslim brothers are themselves being suppressed by the Chinese. If they retaliate, the Chinese get rid of them. Omega wages war to stop the Chinese SS from oppressing Malay Muslims, in prison and in the underworld.
On 23rd September 1989, seven ethnic ‘Malay-Muslim’ inmates incarcerated in the Singapore Chia Keng Prison swore upon the Holy Quran, an oath of secret allegiance to each other and a pledge of martyrdom, to establish the Omega secret society. The pledge of martyrdom, initially conceptualised by the seven ethnic ‘Malay-Muslim’ founders of the Omega secret society ideologically refers to the endeavour of securing and protecting the interests of two separate groups of ‘Malay-Muslims,’ simultaneously reflected in the above excerpt.
