What's wrong with 劫富济贫? Oh wait

Don’t understand your line of argument. If mods, which are supposedly volunteers, are predominantly from a certain group, then they will be allowed to have a freehand to influence whichever way they want.

Are mods even singaporeans ? If not, then they can subtly influence the online chatter to their countries benefit.

How do mods pass through the vetting ?

Without a public set of guidelines, as long as it infringes one single mod’s redline, even if it may be deem useful for the majority, it will be locked, banned, or even deleted.

I am beginning to feel that perhaps hiding under the veil of volunteers, without a proper vetting process, are there sufficient safeguards to ensure the neutrality of mods, and the proper discharge of mods online veto power?

Can ask in the feed back forum..they will surely reply..

There is a reason why Japan immigration policy is not as loosen as others despite of their country is facing lowest birth rate than any other countries and with more aging population. Opening mean more social problems. Crime rates would arise too. Look at USA ....even without guns issues, their other crime rate is also high

I think they misunderstood, even before the free visa arrangement the fujian gang and some other tiongland kias have already been getting all comfy scamming and stealing in sinkieland.

Is not about the visa thingy....is the flood gate immigration policy. 阿猫阿狗as long as rich can flood here.

A Chinese national was offered a 30,000 yuan (S$5,600) reward if he came to Singapore to retrieve nearly $500,000 in cash and valuables that two burglars had earlier stolen.

Food deliveryman Wu Jinxing, 28, who earned around 200 yuan a day, accepted the offer and arrived in Singapore on July 27.

He then went to a forested area near Buona Vista MRT station to retrieve an orange Hermes Birkin bag worth around $45,000 which contained some of the loot.

He was arrested soon after and was charged in court on July 29.

On Dec 16, Wu, whose offence was linked to a syndicate, was sentenced to seven months’ jail. He had pleaded guilty to one count of handling the benefits of criminal conduct.

Wu Jianxin, who offered him 30,000 yuan as a reward, also promised to settle the latter’s travel expenses.

Wu Jinxing agreed to be part of the plan despite knowing that it involved illegal activities. He arrived in Singapore at around noon that day and took a train to Buona Vista MRT station, as instructed by Wu Jianxin.

The DPP said: “(Wu Jinxing) walked down a bicycle route along the Rail Corridor... followed the instructions of Wu Jianxin to climb up a thick vegetation slope and to search for a spot underneath a tree. Wu Jianxin had given these instructions to the accused... via video call.”

Wu Jinxing found the orange Birkin bag hidden underneath some pipes and leaves, and took it.

He then took a taxi to a Geylang hotel and checked into a room at 7pm. With Wu Jianxin observing him through a video call, Wu Jinxing emptied the contents of the bag onto a bed.

Meanwhile, police were alerted on July 27 about the case and officers went to Bukit Sedap Road to recover the other stolen items.

Still taking instructions from Wu Jianxin, an unsuspecting Wu Jinxing went to Bukit Sedap Road to retrieve the valuables and officers in the vicinity arrested him at 9.40pm.

The officers took him back to his hotel room, where they found the orange Birkin bag and its contents.

On Dec 16, DPP Phua urged the court to sentence Wu Jinxing to between eight and nine months’ jail, adding: “The accused’s offence facilitated the criminal activities of a syndicate... There was a transnational element to the accused’s offence.”

For handling the benefits of criminal conduct, Wu could have been jailed for up to 10 years and fined up to $500,000.

Only 7 months in jail. Factored in holidays and remission, would be out in no time.

The deterrence and sentence are simply way too light!
