Why we need the police in SG?

Question

since singapore is such a safe country and nobody even litters.

so why do we need the police for?

if yes, then... do u think they do anything?

Answer 1

They need to do some work, they did very little when we got robbed at suntec.

Answer 2

Singapore is a safe country, but didn't meant no crime. In fact, there are crimes such as robbery, theft, sexual offences and etc committed everyday. Without the Police, all the culprit will be walking along the street waiting for the next target.

Answer 3

to man the checkpoints, in case terrorists enter the country  and make it not safe already

Answer 4

I think there is one verse promoted by Singapore Police Force that appropriately answer your question - LOW CRIME DOESN'T MEAN NO CRIME

Answer 5

You will feel safe because there is Police around and nowadays those Police are busy looking for Mas Selamat.

Answer 6

less Crimes dose not mean very Safe. no war for Singapore , why we need Army ? F-16 s ? there do nothings ?

Answer 7

its just for show to prove that there are law enforcers patroling around singapore even though they are really not doing anything

Answer 8

There have been about 3 murders in the last few weeks, drink driving is a problem, bag snatches seem to be reported in the newspaper every few days lately and glue sniffing is apparently on the rise.

So that's what we need the police for.

Answer 9

we need police so that it remain a safe country and nobody litters. :-)

no police => no order => not safe & litter everywhere

of cos they do something... have you ever changed your address? you have to report to them your change of address so that they can update you nric.

Answer 10

Come on, every countries need law enforcer. Sg is a safe country because of its strict law. People will think twice before committing crime. After all we are human there is always a dark side of everyone.
