Very sobering and shocking news
K. Shanmugam disclosed that between 2017 to 2019, there were 6988 cases of sexual assault, rape, sexual assault by penetration, outrage of modesty etc involving children and vulnerable persons.
Yes, in those 3 years alone, there were 6988 sex crimes in Singapore. On average, there were 2329 cases yearly, 194 cases monthly or about 6.5 cases every single day. I ask how many more unreported and unknown cases are out there?
Although these are very bad and shocking news, still, I want to put on record thanking Minister Shanmugam for his candid sharing.

No news not necessarily means good news. No news does not mean no crime, no sex crime. It was so quiet, so peaceful, like the Garden of Eden. With more than 2m foreigners here, many wildlife and nearly a million illiterate men in the construction industry from the south Asia, infamous for sex crimes, gang rapes, I was pleasantly surprised that there was hardy any mentioned of sex crimes on the rise in this sanitised island of peace loving people, contributing greatly by a kiasi, kiasu, kia chenghu and balless daft citizenry. And I thought the impact of drinking shit water could have neutralise or neuter the sex starved foreigners here.
Now the forbidden truth is out. 6,988 sex crimes in 3 years or 2,329 cases a year, or 6 cases per day! Everyday 6 of the fairer sex were attacked or raped in this Garden of Eden. Is this too much, is this alarming? Is this the new normal of a third world country?
Simon Lim thanked Shanmugam for finally revealing this slimy statistics. Is this acceptable? Can we live with such a high sex crime rate? How many of these sex crimes were committed by foreigners and wildlife? Would there be an embarrassing breakdown on how many of such crimes being committed by residents and non residents, PRs, foreigners etc etc. They are supposed to be very nice people, commit less crimes than daft Singaporeans. What is the govt going to do about this?
Live with it, like the years that went by with loan sharks defacing and harassing innocent citizens with splashed paints, graffiti, chained doors etc etc with impunity.
6 sex crimes daily! 180 a month! Is this frightening?
Some comments to Simon Lim's article in TRE.
If you want to be very polite to your relatives and friends, that’s your personal choice.
However, when you are too polite to politicians, it may have a negative impact on the public. What?
Here’s why.
It is the duty of the police and the minister to periodically release crime data. Why wait 3 years, and only when asked in Parliament?
You thank this minister. All ministers get the wrong picture. They forget their duties to publish data periodically, whether crime data or others.
In this case, instead of thanking the minister, we should follow up and ask why the data is not made public periodically?
Good countries make such data available publicly.
Why only tell now? This should be told during erections!
So what does the police do to reduce these crimes or for that matter what does shame do to improve the stats?
Come come shame……don’t Just sit there n collect pay or during erections called people dishonest……….repeat the word dishonest a few times and the hat sticks on the head like glue………remember you called psp rep dishonest?
Typical of oldcock ……calling out oppo dishonest every time erections is near…?
