yellow ribbon started because govt wants to save money housing and feeding prisoners and also let employers have cheap labour....
not every one in prison is wicked.....political prisoners are a case in point

Agree with you ..

May I ask. Do they have tattoo? Eg on hand and leg?
If private part no need to know.

So what if got tattoo ? Their tattoo bites ?

Too bad in Singapore , marijuana and party pills also classify under drugs .. I know a few Singapore businessman who smoke weeds . Some businessman also kena arrested in the airport when coming back from a country where weeds is legal in that country ..

Sometime think Sg damn doopid. Build one prison near airport and one prison in middle of HDB estate KNN

Highpoint is a halfway house....and it's run by Catholics not the govt.
Singapore too built up, anywhere they relocate also got people will kpkb, I would think since it's in GL it's quite okay.

I rather deal with hooligans than those fellows from the banks or even politicians.

I agree they are pretty scared of us than we should be afraid of them. At any one time I have at least 5 of these working for my company. We've been taking them in for the past 3 years. We don't have much of a problem with them only occasionally one or two will give problem. They are all tagged and rules are strict. Took them in as storemen and some even promoters in departmental stores. A court of them women are quite chio too. So far so lucky and on fact happy with them.

It used to be okay until they started condonising Geylang with condos and private apartments. Suddenly, our dear old rugged Geylang has to become a socialite. Just think of Susan Boyle before she became famous. Now that she became famous and groomed, people cannot accept her digging her nose in public.
If I were to bring my wife and gf to Geylang, I would have to be mentally prepared for them to be leered at. Not prepared, then don't go there. Simple!

a good friend of mine runs a kopitiam in gy and hence i am quite a regular there. seems like lorong 20 is the imaginary line. beyond that (lor 1 to 20) is still a cowboy town. anything goes. from lorong 20 til 42, a lot of condos and new developments pop up recently. land scarce maybe?

Lor 20+ still got whorehouses and 40+ got Vietnam joints....if must differentiate then I think the odd numbered lorongs are less 'happening'....

Hardcore criminals are hard to come by nowadays....
Usually 1st, 2nd timers are allowed tagging....repeat offenders no sentence discount so those you likely to see outside are not those who are will be hard to handle types.
Druggies are different as relapse cases are the highest....

My cousin's brother tol me recently Highpoint sacked previous Indian pastor jesudason also ex-con because heavy politicking .Even some senior committee members resigned and more to go ever since a tyrant Josua Tan came onboard , not sure if also ex-con but very yaya papaya type. His attitude sure land him in big trouble with ex-cons , new pastor also hynam baldie eager to make his mark there. Just like male dog peeing around to guard his territory ,inmates some take them as their Big brother because they promoting power base and most of them think this is their kingdom and therefor go around harassing visitors to badminton hall.

Best to inform Government to check them out and warn not to think this is another power base of their own ,if they get out of hand send them to Pulau Senang or Changi for another stint.

 

[Narong Wongwan]

Kekekeke still got Pulau Senang? CLD? Wah din know so many politicking behind one lousy halfway house setup

I hate most of the people with tattoo. Not all. Because most of them have bad manner.
