As part of its ongoing outreach efforts to raise awareness on scams, the Jurong Police Division (JPD) organised a roadshow at West Mall on 2 Mar 2019. The aim was to prevent the public from becoming potential victims by creating self- vigilance.
Guest-of-Honour, Mr Murali Pillai, MP for Bukit Batok SMC, announced that the police would be launching a series of four anti-scam videos this year, and they will be centred on a character named Uncle Sibeh Suay. He cautioned that anyone, if not vigilant, can fall prey to scams. Mr Murali then urged the public to work hand in hand to fight against scams with more awareness.
In addition to conducting roadshows, the JPD has also collaborated with partners like SingPost to organise anti- scam engagements on how to detect potential scams.
