He reportedly had just completed his probation 8 months ago for a similar offence, when he reoffended.
Phua pleaded guilty to 15 charges of insult of modesty, 28 other similar charges were considered during sentencing.
Phua had reportedly taken the upskirt videos at various locations, including near SIM and several MRT stations.
He would typically follow the victims from behind and film them when they were on the escalator or staircase in front of him, before going home to transfer the clips onto his computer for his personal viewing pleasure.
He was eventually court on 12 October 2018, after following a woman who alighted at a bus stop in front of the Singapore University of Social Sciences (SUSS).
He reportedly filmed the woman as she was going up a nearby overhead bridge, before returning to the bus stop.
A man nearby, who was at the overhead bridge, saw what Phua did and confronted him.
Phua then deleted the video clips that he took that day.
The good samaritan’s companion then made a police report.
The court heard that Phua was previously sentenced to probation in 2016, which he completed 8 month prior to his reoffending.

A user submitted a story about how she was on board the MRT on 23 April at around 3.15pm, when she happened upon an inconsiderate national serviceman.
She wrote that she boarded the MRT at Ang Mo Kio station and saw that the NSF was seated in the reserved seat with his bag placed on an empty seat.
The user shared that her mother needed to sit down but the NSF simply “glared” at them, instead of offering his seat.
Her mother then got another seat elsewhere because she didn’t want to cause a commotion by confronting the NSF.
The user added that it is very appalling for her to witness a young man to behave in such an audacious manner in public, especially when he’s wearing his army uniform.
She added that she was unable to capture his full name, but for the “Q LIM” on his nametag.

Indonesian pharmaceutical firm, Kimia Farma, allegedly reused nasal swab tests for Covid-19 on airport passengers, as well as producing phase test results.
The company was said to have made over S$160,000 in profits from the unethical practice.
Five workers were arrested, and admitted to “cleaning” the nasal swabs with 75% alcohol and repackaging them using double sided tape.
One of the suspects allegedly used the money to pay for the construction of his luxury home.
About 100 to 200 passengers (on average) get tested at the Kualanamu International Airport in Medan daily, and more than 9,000 passengers had been reportedly texted using the contaminated nasal swabs.
The company was also offering for travellers to get tested directly at the airport using their “antigen rapid test kit” instead of doing so at the hospital or clinics.
The travellers then received false results.
