Well.. for all you know... he was 'released' instead of escaped...
Too many questions about the security 'lapse'..... i dun tink a grown up man who was on Singapore's most wanted list previously can 'escape' with such ease...
***************************** A bad day of fishing is still better than a good day at the office.
Precisely, and he used the oldest trick.. escape while in the toilet. If he is the most wanted man, how on earth will the police ever allow him to be out of sight??? Even if he needs to go to the toilet, it should be a special-built toilet with no door and seen by the guards.. Must be inside job...
More no-smoking areas from next year
By Tania Tan
NO BUTTS about it. The list of no-smoking areas will get longer from next year.
Come Jan 1, smoking will be banned in non air-conditioned workplaces and public places, including children's playgrounds, markets and multi-storey carparks.
The move is a bid to discourage smoking among the young, and to 'offer greater protection to non-smokers', said Minister for Environment and Water Resources Yaacob Ibrahim on Friday during the debate on his ministry's budget.
He was responding to questions from MP for the Holland-Bukit Timah GRC Liang Eng Hwa, who expressed concern over Singaporeans picking up the habit at a young age.
'Children learn by watching the actions of adults around them,' said Mr Liang. 'The smokers are not just ruining their own health and others, they are also setting a bad example to the young and impressionable children,' he said.
The smoking ban, which first kicked in at nightspots last July, has shown positive results, said Dr Yaacob.
Since then, there has been an 80 per cent reduction in the amount of air-borne particulate matter, which can increase the risk of developing respiratory and cardiovascular problems.
To further help young smokers quit the habit, polyclinics and some hospitals also provide quit-smoking programmes - efforts which have reduced the proportion of first-time 13- to 16-year-old smokers to 19 per cent in 2006, down from one in four in 2000.
To ensure that non-smoking laws are enforced, the National Environment Agency has some 420 officers dedicated to smoking out rule-breakers. This is further supported by about 50 auxillary police, said Dr Yaacob.
'We will step up enforcement should the need arise,' he added.
Singapore is among some 150 countries that have agreed to ban tobacco advertising and health warnings on cigarettes.
The World Health Organisation says five million people worldwide will die this year because of tobacco, and unless urgent action is taken, it will kill 10 million people a year by 2020.

If you pick up a starving dog and nurse him well, he will not bite you; that is the principal difference between a dog and a man.
