1. WALKING NAKED IN YOUR HOUSE IS ILLEGAL IN SINGAPORE Punishment: S$2,000 fine or up to 3 months in prison Apparently, walking around your house naked is considered a form of pornography. And since pornography is illegal in Singapore, being naked in your house is as well, because it may cause a disturbance to your neighbours. So always close your curtains if you’re taking your clothes off! 2. CHEWING GUM IS ILLEGAL IN SINGAPORE Punishment: Selling chewing gum can result in fines of $100,000 or up to 2 years in prison Probably the most well-known of the laws is Singapore’s chewing gum law. Chewing gum in Singapore is completely forbidden. This also includes the sale of chewing gum, importing or bringing chewing gum into Singapore and spitting it out is the worst crime of all. 3. SMOKING IS FORBIDDEN ALMOST EVERYWHERE IN SINGAPORE Punishment: S$150 – S$1,000 fine Smoking is banned from many places in Singapore including any indoor locations, public transport, interchange bus shelters, 5 metres away from bus shelters, public toilets, public pools, public eating areas, night entertainment including bars, clubs and pubs, common outdoor areas like playgrounds and markets, exercise areas, 5 metres away from any entrance or exit and even carparks! Really, the only safe space to smoke is in your own house (but only as long as your neighbours don’t complain) or in designated smoking rooms. Just best not to light up I’d say. 4. YOU CAN’T MAKE NOISE AFTER 10PM Punishment: Fines up to S$2,000 No group gatherings, loud family dinners or crazy parties after 10pm in Singapore, it is actually considered illegal. If the police are called and you don’t have a ‘reasonable excuse’ for your noise you could be issued a fine. 5. IF YOU DON’T FLUSH THE TOILET Punishment: S$150 – S$500 fine Officials actually conduct random checks in public toilets to make sure people flush after they go. You could actually be looking at a fine if you fail to do so, so make sure you double check before you leave your cubical. 6. CONNECTING TO ANOTHER PERSONS WIFI Punishment: S$10,000 fine or up to 3 years in prison Wow, tough one for those travellers that are just desperate for any free wifi they can find! Apparently if you connect to someone’s unsecured wifi in Singapore it’s considered hacking and can result in serious punishments. Surely not?! 7. BEING GAY IN SINGAPORE IS ILLEGAL Punishment: Up to 2 years in prison Definitely the worst of all Singapore laws, male homosexuality is illegal and includes everything from having sex with a member of the same gender, to holding hands and kissing or hugging in public. Surprisingly, the wording of the laws only specifies male homosexuality, so I’m not sure what that means for females? There is a movement building though, with people who are actively trying to have this law overturned, but for now unfortunately it is still in place. 8. ANNOYING SOMEONE WITH A MUSICAL INSTRUMENT OR SINGING IN PUBLIC Punishment: Up to 3 months in prison Singapore seems to take not irritating others in public places very seriously, with both fines or imprisonment the punishment for either singing lyrics (specifically, if they contain swear words), or playing a musical instrument in a way that’s likely to cause annoyance to another person. 9. GRAFFITI AROUND SINGAPORE Punishment: Caning There’s definitely no street art lane way scene in Singapore, graffiti vandalism can get you arrested or even caned! An old school punishment, but definitely one that is still being threatened in modern Singapore today, with reports of caning being threatened to a group of American tourists as recently as 2014. 10. FEEDING PIGEONS IN SINGAPORE Punishment: S$500 fine Bird lovers be careful, you might not think twice before sharing your lunch crumbs with the local pigeons but if you’re caught in Singapore it will definitely cost you. 11. ANY TYPE OF DRUG RELATED ACTIVITY Punishment: S$20,000 fines, up to 10 years in prison or the death penalty Not uncommon in many countries around the world, and certainly not crazy by any means, but if you’re caught trafficking or in the possession of drugs during your time in Singapore penalties range from fines up to S$20,000 to 10 years in prison, and in very extreme cases even the death penalty. The unique part of this law to point out though, is that Singapore officials have the right to conduct anonymous and random drug tests to anyone without a warrant and if you’re caught with drugs in your system you can also be looking at penalties. This also means that any drugs taken before you enter Singapore that could still be in your system will put you at risk. 12. DRINKING ALCOHOL AND PARTYING BETWEEN 10:30PM AND 7AM Punishment: Fines up to S$2,000 If you’re planning to have a BBQ or party that might continue after 10:30pm you actually have to get a permit from the government! This is actually one of the newest of the crazy laws, only passing at the beginning of 2015. 13. COMMITTING SUICIDE IS ILLEGAL IN SINGAPORE Punishment: … a bit hard to say A tough one to punish as you have already inflicted the ultimate punishment on yourself, but suicide is in fact illegal in Singapore. 14. FLYING A KITE THAT INTERFERES WITH PUBLIC TRAFFIC Punishment: S$5,000+ fine This one I can actually agree with. So many catastrophic things can go wrong if people are playing and not paying attention near roads, so it does make sense that you would get in trouble if you mess with traffic. They’re not messing around either, with fines upwards of $5,000. |
