You shouldn’t criminalize people who have no choice but to turn to the loan sharks to buy food and clothes for their families.

if they had created jobs which pay millions then, people need not break laws to survive.
but alas, they created opportunities for themselves to make millions and now comfortably seated in ivory tower, preached high moral standing of social and personal responsibility( or labor) and what lofty ideals imaginable and then lay these heavy burden on the frail shoulders of men. if these rich ideals or impossible expectations are not religiously and fearfully complied with and obeyed…. whack, cane,jail, fine or slap you with legalities till it steals or robs you of your very last dollar that could have been used to maintain your aged parents.
“You shouldn’t criminalize people who have no choice but to turn to the loan sharks to buy food and clothes for their families.”
So loan sharks are the only one out there who is willing to help these people. If you get rid of loan sharks, who can they turn to? Would they ended up rob, steal, strip, drug etc.?
Unfortunately, borrowing from loan sharks only exacerbates the problem. So what can poor people in Singapore do? I’m not sure anyone has the answer.
The majority borrowed money from Ah Long to gamble or pay off debts. In the first place why so many avenues for gambling such as ToTo, Horse racing, Foot Ball, 4 D, Big Sweep and now Casinos coming. Who created these problems and who approved and encouraged to hv all these evil activites. The ans is the greedy govt to correct taxes.
Sorry shld read : The ans is the greedy govt to collect taxes
Do you know that the government still has not totally disregard criminalizing burrowers from loan shark?
Anyone wants to bet, there is a good chance that they will do it after the next general election?
Criminalizing burrowers from loan shark can significantly reduces government resources,i.e. Police given the increasing problem caused by the policies themselves like no minimum wages, complete with foreign workers etc.

Having had some experience with those who turned to loansharks, I think some of them needs to be jailed for bringing trouble to innocent ones. This group tend to be hardcore gamblers, good for nothing, choose to be jobless type. If they had not turned to loansharks for their gambling addiction, situation would not have been too bad.

True Love Attraction Love Spell.
My mom was always the person I turned to when I needed something. It was her advice I counted on, and her that I talked to about my most needful things. She died 18 months ago, and at first I was so lost without her I did not think I could function. But then I found DR TEMI. He has filled that empty hole in my heart from the loss of my mother. I can turn to him for guidance and spiritual advice. He is always available and he always cares. It is not about money for him. Even better, I finally asked him to perform a love spell on me, and it worked! I met with a man who had also experienced a great loss and we were able to become close friends and provide support to each other. We fell in love and got married. we are living happily with our kids. Thank you, DR, TEMI, for helping me through the worst times of my life, for being such a great spell caster, and for giving me a love spell that has brought me so much joy. If you doubt his ability, trust me. You should take a chance. It pay off in ways you could never even imagine.Email him (munaspelltemple@gmail.com)
