The SARS. Singapore government has gone lunatic on this. Today, I went to collect my renewed Employment Pass and they held my passport and asked me to come back after 2 and half hours instead of giving me the EP immediately. Aparently, the reason is, I went out of Singapore (to my own country) and came back by 6th of April. After a series of talk which I overheared from the immigration officers, I realised that they decided to do some digging out on me before they can issue me the EP. Not to mention, I had to fill out a SARS declaration form before I could even go into the counters. Its a good effort. Very very good effort. Actually, thats what makes me feel more safe living in Singapore. I heard in the TV yesterday that WHO said "If Singapore cannot control SARS, then nobody can!!!" Thats a very strong statement.
