by law, cannot make noise aft 11pm.
only for approved licensed activities, like wanyang, shows, pasar malam, etc.
CC karokae. must stop before 11pm.
construction and renovation, work allowed rrom 8 am to 7pm.
for loud rowdy activities, loud gangs and loitering, shouting , loud talking, singing, skateboarding and guitar and football playing, its not allowed as long as anyone nearest resident complains regardless of time. Its called public nuisance. The police will usually ask them to go away after taking down particulars. This concerns crime prevention and nusiance.
For noise from neighbours, its neighbourly disputes, usually only police advise to reduce noise and town councils and HDB give warnings. But you need to have some evidence if you want TC and HDB to help. its not easily solve if neighbours not cooperative.
As for police role, some officers will assume its the standard before 11pm, unless the affected residents explain to them to help appreciate situation why the noise makers needs to be warned and ask to leave area.
