Where did your number come from? Assistant editor of Shit Times Francis Chan? Are you fucking stupid or something? Do you actually believe what is in the Shit Times? Did it ever occur to you that all the COI reporting was done by fucktard leeporters, and they all of a sudden roll out this Assistant Editor to rebut what was posted here? You must be some PAP porlumpar send here to salvage the situation or just plain lazy to do your own research. NSmen and Police Constabulary are still part of the SPF and patrol with the SPF. You can discount them all you want, but they wear a police uniform, and carry weapons and go on patrol. u say they are not part of police, than I say u need to get a brain. Don't forget too SPF does not include AETOS and CISCO which were present and in action at the Little India riots. These 2 companies should have their numbers counted as they also do many police work like patrolling and law enforcement. So, when Ng say he needs more officers, he conveniently forgot that many police tasks have already been subcontracted out to the 2 companies, who were present and accounted during the riots. So, in reality the Police Force is much larger than the 39,000 I mentioned.
EMPLOYEE PROFILE

Don't come here and shoot your mouth off without a brain, ok.
