usually you need to declare upon being asked if you are travelling in the green lane. If they asked whether if you have any cigarettes and your ans is no, then you are in for a big time

Its a grey area IMHO...

 

When you come back with say 18-19 sticks...they ask you anything to declare...you show them the open pack they check and let you go. Technically speaking...its not legal. If you get caught by cutoms outside, you will still be liable for fines. So did the officers at the check point sabo or ???

 

To play safe...those that I bring back from Malaysia...I only smoke in the toilet at home...hahahahaha...unless somebody bao toh me and customs come to my house to raid...

 

The proper procedure is to stop at the red lane...pay the GST and take the receipt...

 

The safest is quit smoking ... -_-

$600/- fine just for cig might as well quit smoking and invest the money for installing a good DVR in your car and safe on insurance claim ... -_-

I have always wondered: let's say you are carrying drugs, when land at changi, get out of the plane and walk through the corridor towards immigration, suddenly get cold feet and decide to dump your stuff into one of the dustbins lining the corridor, or even flush down the toilet, later when they find it, will they check the CCTV camera and come look for you?

 

Or even after you pass through immigration, at the duty free / luggage collection, you suddenly decide to dump the drugs before going through customs, will you be breaking any law once you dispose of the drugs?

 

Somehow I think that's what the toilets at the arrival hall is for: to give a second chance to drug mules.

The hardcore drug smuggling syndicates will force the mules to swallow condoms filled with heroin, so as to escape detection and also to prevent any last minute chickening out by the mule.

Whenever I go AUS the plane will announce no food product are allow to be brought in to AUS w/o declaring. I have seen ppl eat Bak Kaw before leaving the plane. So wonder is that the grey area

talking about ciggies....can anyone explain to me why china ciggies are so much expensive than normal premium brands like Davidoff or Marlboro?

 

I was at the dfs departure store and was checking ard when I saw a carton of Chinese ciggies selling for close to 180 bucks! Others like Zhongnanhai was also selling for 100 bucks.....in comparison....Marlboro was only selling for 20 dollars

 

So what is so special about premium Chinese ciggies such that it can command such a hefty price??

It's a mark of class(or lack thereof). If you can afford to smoke certain ciggies, you're of certain stature in the eyes of the PRCs.

 

It's like why a generic canvas wallet costs $20, and a Mont Blacnc canvas wallet cost $500.

 

Exclusivity.

If you are caught with illicit drugs in the transit area of Changi Airport, you will be arreated and dealt with under the MDA. For example, a drugs carrier in transit at Changi Airport, waiting in the transit area for his second carrier to go to his final destination, and so happen that CNB or any Police officers conduct a spot check on him and found him with illicit drugs, he will be arrested, thou he has no intention to land in Singapore.
