Singapore - The Curfew State

In the papers today, it states "Police to act to keep teens off streets after 11 pm".

I must have missed the mass riots, burning of cars, torching of buildings by our unruly juveniles, that has prompted the police to impose a curfew. Wow, Singapore, a state in curfew! Cool...

I pity all those poor early enlistee NSFs who would no longer be able to book out when training runs over time (and when has it ever not done so?). And no more lights out, or at least, they would have to book in by 2259, not 2359 anymore.

Wait a minute, what about the early enlistees who go to the SPF? So ironically, those officers would not be able to be activated to impose the curfew. Oh wait, so long as they tell their parents, then its okay. :-)
