29 women were arrested by the Singapore police during an island-wide anti-crime operation which ran from July 13 to 15.

The operation covered 27 KTV lounges, which have pivoted into food and beverage (F&B) outlets.

The women were between the ages of 20 and 47, and of various nationalities.

They were apprehended for offences under the Women’s Charter, the Immigration Act and the Employment of Foreign Manpower Act.

The authorities scored own goal. As previously ktvs were regulated by plrd. Then these pai kia due to covid 19 restrictions smart smart pivot to F&B... and the authorities quickly siam and arrowed to a newly setup and inexperienced govt body to look after them. No regulatory or enforcement bite or oversight or experience. Cheo kar pengz.
