Singapore is very thorough about law enforcement (to the extent of going beyond what would seem to most people to be fair and respecting rights) and as such has very little crime and is among the safest places in the world.
How you enforce laws effects the crime rate, having your jails full doesn’t mean you have effective law enforcement.
- theossuary 3y ago~80% of Singapore citizens live in subsidized government owned housing, with rent control, etc. They also require each neighborhood to meet quotas of the different ethnic groups to ensure there are no single race enclaves. But yeah, keep pretending the solution to crime is hard-line policing, and not public policy. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_housing_in_Singapore https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_housing_in_Singapore
- twelve40 3y agobut sf is the opposite of hard-line policing. its also one of the most diverse cities in the land, with maybe only Bayview as the only major enclave. still the downtown looks like a warzone and is abandoned by businesses.
