A video emerged online showing an auntie on board the MRT doing her makeup.
She was seen not wearing her mask as she was seated next to another commuter.
Her hand appeared to be steady, as she drew her eyebrows from Ang Mo Kio MRT station to Novena MRT station.

Parliamentarian Louis Ng (PAP-Nee Soon) posted on Facebook on how NEA utilizes cameras to catch smokers who throw cigarette butts out of windows.
In his Facebook post he attached photos of residents getting caught in the act and he said that it is not true that the cameras will invade privacy.
“We have been told repeatedly that the current surveillance cameras can’t be used to capture someone smoking at their windows? We have been told the use of the cameras will invade the privacy of smokers and their neighbours. But this can’t be true.
Check out photos from the current NEA surveillance cameras.
AND REMEMBER that camera surveillance is just one of many options. It is the last last last resort.
Let me stress again that once people are aware that smoking near windows and at balconies is illegal, the vast majority of people will comply with it.
I cannot imagine a person continuing to smoke at their window, committing an offence right in front of their neighbours in the nearby block. I’m sure some neighbours will take photos of this and report the smoker or put it on social media. Deterrence again will kick in before the need for enforcement.
We are not asking for surveillance cameras to be placed everywhere, throughout Singapore and invade everyone’s privacy. This is not needed at all.
For the small number of cases where we need to deploy a surveillance camera, we can minimise concerns of privacy by doing what we already do – point it at the facade of the building.
These cameras are used by the authorities today to catch high-rise litterbugs. But they will actually work just as effectively for catching those smoking at windows and balconies.
These photos in this post show how the cameras can already capture someone smoking at their windows without invading the privacy of the smoker and their neighbours.
I won’t give up and will continue to speak up!
What do you think Let me know your thoughts and I will help raise them in Parliament.
Help spread the word Thanks!”

On Tuesday (September 21), the owner of a massage parlor and one of his managers were sentenced to prison and fined, respectively, for sexual services given at the establishment.
48-year-old Tan Tzer Tong the owner of a 5 Star Beauty Centre was previously located at Serangoon and later relocated to Tanjong Pagar. The manager who was managing the outlet was in charge of giving instructions to the ‘masseuses’.
When the Police raided the outlet(56A Serangoon Garden Way), they found a 29-year-old girl having sex with a 33-year-old customer.
The man booked the girl online for $150 and while engaging in sexual activities with the girl the Police raided the place and the man did not complete his ‘deed’.
Tan relocated the massage centre to 98A Tanjong Pagar Road after the raid at Serangoon and again the place was raided by the Police.
The Police found used condoms and seized 7 mobile phones which contains evidence of the women promoting their ‘services’ online.
The owner was eventually jailed for 2 weeks and the manager fined SGD$10,000
The police are aware of social media images circulating online depicting individuals removing government property as part of the ‘devious licks’ social media challenge.
The ‘devious licks’ challenge encouraged students to vandalise or steal school property and then broadcast their results on social media.
Two instances involving government property, thought to be connected to the social media challenge, were reported to the police, and the individuals responsible have since been identified.
For the first occurrence, on September 19, 2021, at around 5.16 p.m., the police got a complaint depicting a male youngster posing with a Land Transport Authority-owned Kaki Bukit MRT station sign.
The photograph in question was shared on a number of social media networks. The identity of the 15-year-old male youngster was determined through follow-up investigations and the use of photos from police cameras, and the signage was retrieved from his house.
The notice was initially affixed to the frame of the covered walkway that leads to the MRT station in question.
For the second incident, authorities got a report on September 19, 2021, at 9.40 p.m., displaying a video of a boy adolescent hanging onto a National Environment Agency sign.
The video in question was uploaded on TikTok. The identity of the 14-year-old male youngster was discovered after investigations.
He allegedly took down the signpost, which was initially fastened to the ground along Jalan Songket to make his video and then replaced it after filming.
A video emerged online showing a couple of YPs getting into some pretty kinky stuffs at a staircase landing.
One of the YPs was seen blindfolded with a face mask and standing against the wall.
The other YP then gave him a tight slap that presumably sent him back to the year 1299, to meet Sang Nila Utama when he landed on Temasek for the first time.
The slap was apparently very amusing to their friend, who was behind the camera choking on oxygen laughing heartily.

A photo emerged online showing an unusual couple inside a club.
The couple must’ve had at least 5 decades between them, as the Ah Ma was seen hugging her little bowl of sugar tightly on the dance floor.
A netizen commented that the Ah Ma was the guy’s “Sugar Granny”, with his iPhone 13 definitely secured.
The picture doesn’t appear to have been taken in Singapore.

A 13-year-old girl shared how she and her 14-year-old boyfriend likes to “fk and like bj and finger”.
She added that she feels that their “relationship will get affected if (they) keep just like fking”.
She then asked for advice.
Pursuant to Section 377 of the Penal code, offenders who have sex with a minor under the age of 16 faces a potential jail term not exceeding 10 years, and/or a fine.
Even if both parties are underaged, the offence of statutory rape still applies; although the police can exercise their discretion and may/may not charge the offenders.

A video emerged online showing a guy making a public apology for and admitting to leaking a girl’s n*des.
In the video, the guy introduced himself as “Ini” (apologies for the misspelling, his name has yet to be confirmed).
He was then seen wiping his lower lip, which appeared to have been bleeding, presumably from being hit.
He then said that he “publicly apologise for ruining a girl’s life, which (he) fully regretted”.
The camera girl then asked him from behind the camera, “what did you leak?”
“Ini” then said “haha I leaked her nudes”.
A person is liable for a jail term of up to 5 years, fines or canes (including any combination of the three), under Section 377BE of the Penal Code, for the offence of distributing intimate/explicit images and video recordings.

A video emerged online showing the underaged, matrep version of Snoop Dogg, hiding out at a staircase landing with his two female companions.
He was seen pretending to be disinterested as he tried his best to “step cool”, smoking a cigarette and using his phone.
The 2 mini minahs were seen having a stroke performing some sort of dance, presumably for TikTok.
It is illegal to smoke at common corridors of HDB buildings, staircase landings as well as void decks.
Persons caught for this offence face a fine of $200 or up to $1,000 upon conviction in court.
Also, the minimum smoking age in Singapore is 21, and underaged smokers caught smoking face a fine of up to $300.

I actually graduated from Uni 5 years ago. When I was still in school, I had a lot of expectations and excitement about my relationship and work (that is another story). I used to collect beautiful pictures of wedding gown, wedding decoration on my tumblr when I was in school. I had a lot of fantasy about how my wedding would be like. I also like to see home decoration and I had many ideas in my mind.
I had a loving boyfriend who treated me well. He was very encouraging and never once force me to do things I was uncomfortable with. Initially, there weren’t many people supportive of our relationship. It had always felt like it was us VS the world. And I always thought that as long as we do it right and love each other, everything would come into place and we would be granted happiness and external bliss.
Few years down the road, he took very long to find a full time job. There were men in their 30s, who told me they felt that I was wasting my youth away being with him. But I always counter their argument that they weren’t much better when they were 25. I mean our local boys will always lose to their foreign counterparts because of the 2 years of NS.
A Malaysian boy could easily get their PR with 2 years of work experience and a degree. Many employers I have seen would rather hire someone with 2 years of experience than a complete fresh grad. My boyfriend only needed this one full time job to gain experience and he would be good. I still had a lot of faith in him then. My manager had told me his story with his ex-girlfriend. How she left him because her mother said he wasn’t good enough. I don’t want to be in one of those typical break-up story. It was still us VS the world.
Never would I have expected things to turn into conflict between him and I. We saw a good BTO location one day and we happily bid for it! And we even had a good number. I was so excited that I told my whole office. But he broke down and cried saying that it was too expensive for us. He did not have a secured full time job. He told me that my tumblr wedding post and my excitement about wedding and house were giving him a lot of pressure. He even told me he did not love me anymore. How we were becoming monotonous and doing the same old shit again and again.
And that was the last straw. I cried for many days. I needed someone to talk to. Anyone who will listen. I was in a phase of life all my girlfriends had their own boyfriend and their own lives and it was really difficult to meet up. But I do know people from volunteering and my old work place. So I shared my story… poured my heart out. And I almost wanted to walk out of this relationship with someone else.
My boyfriend cried and told me that it was a set up for me to walk away because I deserve better. But he just found a new job and he hoped that I can forgive him and go back to how it used to. I have never seen him cried before. It had always been me who cried when things head south. His parents even have to talk to us about how novelty of a relationship will be gone in time.
We should treasure because not every relationship can last this long. And not every couple can see each other grow up. But things were just never the same. I always get reminded that I am boring now after what had happened. Many of my friends who started a relationship a lot later than me are already married. Some even with children. And we are still stuck here.
Is this what adulthood is like?
You look at one person and all sorts of emotions stir you up and you feel it in every pores of your body. Happiness, anger, fear, hopelessness, anticipation, disappointment… I felt everything in this relationship. This is when your life experience taught you that “till death do us apart” is not just about your wedding dress and diamond ring… Do you still want to be together after all that had happened?
Sometimes I really hope that my boyfriend can do something sweet to bring back how it felt like in the past. Bring me to some fancy place in our best attire or give me a fancy proposal as a reward for everything I had gone through. He still couldn’t get it about what I want. If I had to teach you what I want… then I might as well just do it myself? Go book for a fancy restaurant, buy my own diamond ring and propose to myself. I waited too long and I really feel like walking out now.
