A man has been arrested after a six hour operation by Singapore Customs and CID officers for his suspected involvement in importing counterfeit bags for trading.

Singapore Customs had inspected the consignment of goods suspected to be fakes, and brand owners subsequently confirmed 200 bags and pieces of luggage were indeed counterfeits. CID was informed, and after extensive inquiries, they carried out a raid at a Jurong Port warehouse and a Punggol residential unit.

The 43 year old man was arrested, and a further 318 counterfeit bags were seized, with a total value believed to be $11,680. Investigations against the man are still ongoing.

Another pipe burst in Bukit Batok East Ave 3 in the wee hours of this morning. According to a resident there, the fountain has been pouring for a long while without authorities taking any action to stop the leak.

What’s going on with Bukit Batok? How come so many pipe bursts aka artificial waterfalls? Like new tourist attraction sia.

So much for saving water.

#CAGED… My hope is that you read this to the end & share…

Everyday I am asked by members of the public, what is the outcome of the meeting with the Ministry of National Development? It has been 2 weeks, so I will try to convey what has transpired.

Although I was repeatedly told by 80% of the public that the visit by Minister Lawrence Wong would be a PR stunt & only 20% thought that the Minister reaching out to The Cat Museum, Muses & Mansion of Singapore would mean wonderful things for the future of the Lion City Kitties in Singapore, I chose to HOPE that the latter would be true…

2 weeks ago, on Fri 15 September, he accepted my invitation to visit and I did my best to convey that there was never any deliberate intention to operate the ‘business’ outside of the regulations. My home is NOT a business & fostering cats in residential premises happens throughout Singapore. MND was not able to provide any evidence contrary to this.

I made a personal appeal to Minister Wong to help clear my name as my reputation & family have been affected but to no avail. After what I thought was a fruitful opportunity to clarify what had happened in the last 3 years, these 2 letters arrived from MND. These & subsequent correspondences can be read here.

To say I am sad & disappointed, is an understatement. Like the animals you are probably going to see at adoption drives all over Singapore, Singapore is #CAGED. Trying to do good in Singapore, Singapore has been a challenge, even if it is with your own hard earned savings. God forbid, if you are perceived as “different” & try to let people see animals “free of cages” & allow their true nature to shine… to focus on #compassion, #kindness & #generosity so that we can evolve as a nation…

To Minister K Shanmugam Sc, thank you for at least allowing this dream to see 2.5 good years.

To The Straits Times & Mediacorp 8频道新闻新加坡 Channel 8 news news here’s the FULL story.

To Prime Minister’s Office (Singapore), no amount of “innovation & entrepreneurship” encouraged in our top universities will help if we continue to operate in a BOX with bars all around…

To the kindness of strangers, volunteers & fans from around the world, during this painfully difficult past month, I say a tearful thank you, which hardly seems enough… BUT know this, without your STRENGTH, I would not have prevailed… I will fight on.
