2.Singaporean.u can lift ur heads up.Our Singapore's legal and judicial system

Our legal and judicial system is a dream of many foreigners.
U can laugh at me--until u talk to more foreigners .
Ask Aussie,why we got high rankings!![/b]

lol. haiz ... while robert whacks everything, u support everything. oh well... like u said lah, there's balance.Originally posted by Salman:I am also keeping a balance. I counter their propaganda and lies.
Notice they always fail to answer to my counters to their propaganda.
Rexdriver, regarding ur earlier post, how do u get s'pore's ratings for criminal justice? i would like to read more on that. thksOriginally posted by Rexdriver:The quality of your posts does grave injustice to the handle that you have chosen.

If you look at the names of all the reports quoted by Lionnoisy, you'd realise they're all business institutions concerned only with the business aspect of judicial systems. Unfortunately, I cannot recall where I read on the criminal justice system of Singapore, but I'm pretty sure some time spent surfing the net will lead you to related reports.Originally posted by ben1xy:on a global scale, i reckon we're doing ok. at least our crime rate is low. anyway, rexdriver, how do u get s'pore's ratings for criminal justice? i would like to read more on that
By the way, I didn't just read about it. I personally know some things about the criminal justice system here.Originally posted by ben1xy:Rexdriver, regarding ur earlier post, how do u get s'pore's ratings for criminal justice? i would like to read more on that. thks
and so do I. but i also know things in the judicial systems in other countries... not pretty either. can't be helped i guess.. our world has already evolved into one where money plays a huge role. it's sad.Originally posted by Rexdriver:By the way, I didn't just read about it. I personally know some things about the criminal justice system here.
And I suppose you can back those up with substantiave reasoning?Originally posted by Salman:76.1% verses 23.9% ought to be a great balance. Don't you think so?
2.U are right.They are business institutions.But this did not mean concerned only with the business aspect of judicial systems. I think their survey form cover every aspectsOriginally posted by Rexdriver:If you look at the names of all the reports quoted by Lionnoisy, you'd realise they're all business institutions concerned only with the business aspect of judicial systems.

That's one helluva tough question!Originally posted by LazerLordz:Do you guys believe in a rehabilitative leaning justice system or a punitive leaning system?And what sort of balance do we need to strike?
i can imagine the human rights groups. lolOriginally posted by Rexdriver:That's one helluva tough question!
But let's just say the punitive model is kinda outdated... like since medieval times.
Ok.Do u means shorting coming in criminal proceedinds?Originally posted by Rexdriver:Lionnoisy, highlighting other countries' shortcomings does not justify our own shortcomings. If there's an issue before us, let's deal with it instead of saying "oh well, we're good in other respects so who cares?".
I've read it. And it doesn't address the point I've made. By the way, I'm flabbergasted by the following extract from the article:-Originally posted by lionnoisy:Ok.Do u means shorting coming in criminal proceedinds?
Or do u really means the treatment of opposition party?
