Give you 10, take back 50.

 

I'd rather they focus on helping those who need it.

why? i hope they learn to work as one ministry..  and lesser red tape.. 

 

Enforcement nowadays as compared to last time is really lacking. 

It is more a case of catching, instead of deterrent.

Except for few places, hardly see any police, TP, NEA officer patrolling.

From personal experience..  i work in cbd.. so i frequently see those police officers patrolling near raffles place MRT.. 

 

at home.. near my house got alot of jiak hong chu..  so.. LTA frequently called down to clamp down on illegal parking...

 

TP i agree rare.. 

 

If you want deterrence.. increasing funding to police force does not settle the problem at the root isnt it? 

 

I think the show of efficiency in arresting culprits and heavier penalties is more productive.. 

 

Personally.. i always felt very peeved when encountering grey areas.. the enforcement agencies start to arrow each other for follow-up... 

 

Ultimately...make it more efficient.. then talk about increasing costs...

I have been seeing TP more frequently leh. Overtaking on CTE, TP was behind me. And then another day, TP tailed me on centre lane from Lentor till Yishun Industrial Park. Then last week just saw cop on top at PIE(Toa Payoh) towards Tuas direction.
