Wow as singaporean this is good
Thanks for your info I keep in mind
Keep doing the good work.
Smugglers Don’t play play har r r
Your country's drug laws are disgraceful & you should feel ashamed to of them if you are a citizen. The death penalty is no way to combat the drug crimes people being given the death penalty for in Singapore👎👎👎👎
I can imagine: "Ok, Josh forgot to refill the coffee maker so he has to act as the drug dealer."
lmao
i mean how fake is this shit lmao
Never help strangers while at airports or checkpoints; just refer them to the service officers. You never know people with hidden intentions
Good one. Sometimes you can suffer for not being situationally aware.
If someone asks me if I can take their stuff for them (using me as a drug mule without me realizing) I just laugh and tell them to send it by mail, ask their family, or take a second trip 😅
It happened exactly once and he kept insisting, but I walked away and he screamed "I hope you die!!" 😅
“I think this one my toolbox for my work”
Officer: 👌🏻👁👄👁
"But you say not yours?"
If you already been suspected. Security will check everything lol. Even it destroy your case
How I imagine conversations after the simulation :
security dude: eh very strong ah
fake smuggler: yea, went to gym yesterday to make ur life harder lol
*simulation
Stimulate the smuggler huh? Until long and hard ... Very strong
@@SuccessforLifester HAHAHAHHAHA
Sound like gay gay security....😏😄
Why I read this in their English accent 😭😭😭
Not mine + My toolbox for work, very cool!
subject panicking 🤣
Lol
That is the common tale tale sign used by the intrusion officer lol
I wonder if real subject will make these mistakes
@@AERSKALFA_ well, if he is nervous, almost everything will be a giveaway.
Nervous or not, the police will check everything clean.
what's inside the case?
"I dont know"
*opens case*
this my tool box
@@realcartoongirl it's actually quite common. I often forgot What's inside the box on my motorcycle compartment, because it has been there for so long.
dumbest criminal hahaha, worthy of a mediacorp contract.
is the smuggler real or just an actor?
I knew a guy who got caught with half of an 80-milligram oxycontin in his 5th pocket in his jeans. I asked him, "Why in the world didn't you just eat it?". He told me that he forgot that he had it. Now, it must be true, because he got caught and did time for it... but I don't know many drug addicts AT ALL who "forget" that they're holding.
@@depressedindonesiangirl939 they said it was an actor at the start
I'm curious as to what happens to the driver if he/she was genuinely was unaware that illegal items were planted in the cargo they were transporting. I've seen some documentaries of these incidents and these people end up becoming victims and prosecuted. My heart really goes out to them, living out their innocent lives behind bars.
Still kena
Whilst it is really sad if the driver genuinely doesn't know, one has to expect that if they knew they were going to get scanned by an X-Ray, they should probably do a check just in case. Not saying it's their fault, the fault almost exclusively lies on the scum that hid the illegal goods, but the drivers could have honestly prevented it with more care.
For example, if they notice their vehicle was tampered with but nothing was stolen, they have to suspect that something was planted instead. If someone other than them has ridden that vehicle before their drive, or they are receiving the vehicle from their company to drive, they need to check their vehicle thoroughly also. This would make things far safer.
In Singapore, drivers hold most responsibility for incidents involving vehicles like accidents. This kind of thing should also fall under something a driver receiving a licensed vehicle to drive should check for.
@@nephel6158 I hope shit happens to you and then you get blamed for being careless.
It’s singapore…they would still get killed
@@jeremymacrae9716 that’s why the crime rate is so low here
I was initially suspicious of the guy when the officer said, “what’s in the box?” And then the guy replied with, “not mine, not mine.” But then they cut to him saying, “just my toolbox for work.
The officers said at the early of the videos that they will do a simulation.
It's not real...
Congrats detective McKenzie, you solved a simulation.
@@TotsugekiKun Its real though :D
@@lokikokoko5833 I was like, “they got really good camera angles during the fight! 🤔” almost too good, 😂
Wow 1person takedown.
But in real life, 4-5 officers is required to take down an aggressor.
'Take down' is different from 'whacking' or 'tackling'. All it takes is a few punches on the 'red zones' of a person to drop him, but to arrest and 'take down' an aggressor Without hurting or injuring him definitely requires more human strength.
it was acted
Pulling a screwdriver like that and less than 21 feet from a potential victim is a great way to be sprayed, tased or shot
Looks real, the smuggler really got violated at the end.
You mean violent? Lol
@@flyingcucumber nah he means like the smuggler got handled hard by the police
the said simulated at the end, so not real
5:45
@@steadynoww ofc haha I don’t think ud be able to film a criminal fighting the cops lmao
imagine an actual smuggler seeing this..
Same
He will be like hm.... thx for the updates
this is like a routine check?
They just pay them off
@@KR-wd1ii that won’t work
officer: What is this?
Smuggler: I dont know. It is my tool box......
It must be really uncomfortable to do this job. Especially in Singapore where the penalty for smuggling drugs is death
Most of the smugglers are just smuggling the drugs for money, they don't even know how SG laws work on smuggling drugs. Yep, they have no clue that they would face death penalty, every week, there would be one trying to smuggle drug into SG, most come from African countries.
@@catherine4077 I don't believe this crap you are saying. Everyone knows that you cannot take drugs to another country. Everyone knows SG is very very strict.
@@DonGivani I don't deny this, I'm just saying they don't know the lowest penalty of SG for smuggling drugs is death sentence.
@@catherine4077 yes they do know it. When you land in singapore, the staff actually SAYS it to make sure EVERYONE know what will happen. They know what they are getting into.
@@catherine4077 They know, and they are willing to risk their lives for it because the reward is so high due to heavy restriction.
My biggest nightmare scenario is a smuggler in customs panics and plants drugs on me or my luggage and I don't know about it. I look more paranoid when at customs and at the airport than the actual person who smuggles this crap. I make sure all of my pockets are secured on me and on my luggage.
thats why you should never visit countries like singapore, death penalty for drugs in 2022 is just typical 3rd world underdeveloped mentality
ya I also wonder if that case happen what will happen yay ? will the victim get the same death punishment as well ? I dont know can someone tell me ?
@@ckwzai your question has been my question for a long time as i am wondering the same thing too
i think when you are going to cross any borders in the world just don't wear any shirt or pants with pockets even pants with back pockets
Lol I was thinking the same.
Wow, Singaporeans come with pre-installed Ah Beng accents
Kudos to our unsung heroes and heroines!
🇸🇬 can count on all of you for your utmost dedication and hard works to keep us safe!
Did u say heroin? :P
They are murderers and that’s final
As much as I’m impressed with what ICA officers have done in securing our borders on reel or in real I wouldn’t dismiss the fact CNB would’ve played a more significant role here of an intel work well-done. 😊
Singapore have no choice but to guard their border strictly. Many people plan to smuggle illegal items there due to high demand but they fail in their attempts. They are detected and get caught all the time by the efficienct Singapore border officers. Good job. Keep it up.
Don't be stupid. You are too easy to believe the licence gangster in your country.
Sounds bullshit.
meanwhile, i brought my rubik's cube and lockpicking set with me.... several hours of being treated like a criminal :( well i guess a ways, a J & L shaped strip of metal are illegal in singapore haha
@@alphapham2060 if its bullshit, why are drugs not a big problem in SG compared to the shithole USA
SG is high risk high reward for the smugglers. If they want to gamble, they gotta pay the price.
When I was checking in for a flight to singapore from bangkok, some random guy asked me if I will take some package through for him, I was like NO F**KING WAY!!! 100% true story.
Don't help strangers, people!
What if they conceal the contraband in a fire extinguisher
Using a fire extinguisher to vape? That's hardcore
@@ethankoh6851 compressed smoke bro explode their ears and eyeballs 🤣 build diFfReNT
For smoking, this is the furtherest one can go… 😶
they got K9 la
@Steve Wolcott biohazard would be checked either way
Answer: He’s Screwed
Police: "Sees Metal Box."
Driver: Not Mine, Not Mine
Police: "Opens the Box."
Driver: My toolbox.
Police: "kinda sus..."
I like to imagine the screwdriver wasn't a part of the simulation and the guy was just getting way too into it
The drug smuggler literally: 💀
When I travel to Singapore I get a slip that says “drug traffickers will be sentenced to death”
Brittney Griner type bitches still gonna bring "CBD Oil for medicinal purposes"
and then cry patriarchy or racism when she get the death sentence.
The new crimewatch episode is very intriguing.
The person who being subdued is their supervisors of which later the supervisor will rate them based on SOP after the exercise 😅
Imagine if American borders were as secure as this.
Then u should expect breaking good to come out
Imagine if American borders were secure
@@serpentinefire921 a man can dream.
Well we have a LOT MORE TRADE and trucks coming through the border. I mean Abbott tried to recreate this for the last month in Texas. Ended up costing a few billion in trade a week only to find no drugs and no contraband and no illegal immigrants. Then he stopped it because it was honestly an expensive waste.
@@vyros.3234 Really? No drugs, contraband or illegals? Wow we must live in a perfect world.
Is it possible to do a documentary on missing entry stamps by Malaysian customs ? Could be quite difficult I guess. Whether they do it on purpose shows the sub-standards of a country. It is sad they are not proud of their country to maintain high standards but instead blame it on travellers to check themselves giving the excuse that mistakes can happen even though it keeps happening.
hell u talking about?
@@FM-dm8xj Malaysian custom sabotage singaporeans. It's not uncommon these days.
@@sleepyearth really?
Defending criminals. Disgusting.
5:44 this was the best part of the video - his colleague winding him up 😅
Should do one about bringing in chewing gums or buying things above the tax free limit. Since this is what the good common citizens are concerned about.
Don't think bringing in chewing gum is an offence. Cos we are allowed to Chew gum just not allowed to sell.
For shopping above tax limit they will ask for receipts. If don't have they will google the price. How they know who went shopping probably see bag or luggage size. I kana before they cut open the box of my purchase and see the item inside. But I'm not angry with them cos they are keeping sg safe.
@@Jack-hy2ki Ic. So they randomly choose you to check the bags. I think public transport people tend to get check more as they need to walk through a body scanner. The gum thing I am not sure how much is ok. Last time I seldom go inside Msia but so I wanted to buy more that could last longer. It is a grey area I feel.
@@SuccessforLifester I was driving not public transport. My mum got called by ICA officer at the airport for chewing gum. She bought quite alot. The officer only took it and disposed it in front of her and then asked her to go.
@@Jack-hy2ki I see thanks for sharing.
@@Jack-hy2ki I still remember that it was an offence when I brought one bottle of chewing gum from Malaysia back in 2019, they gave me warning and ask me to dispose it at the bin.
It is an offence tho.
amazing process. love their sincerity at work irregardless of rank!
That’s what happens in a dictatorship
@@davi8515 what the heck you taking about?
Crimewatch should learn from them lol, acting so good i thought it was real
Nah the bad acting is what gives crimewatch the charm
@@Elira-jr4tv …and
Never ever take any package requests from strangers you just met, sometimes even a friend that you not really close with; telling you to take their little package they will give you on your way to your destination country.
If they or he force to do? How to do that?
@@amirulashraff136 what will you value the most ? your life or fulfilling some friends wish ?
"So, you have chosen death."
- Random ICA guy
thank you for educating the future smugglers.
Good job and well done, SG police officers.👍
singapore's immigration checkpoints are hella powerful man, my father is a Royal Malaysian Police intelligents retiree from the Special Branch unit ( Malaysian version of FBI/CIA ), back then in 2019 when we're at the causeway immigration centre they can recognizes my father's background in fact they even interrogated my father for a few minutes by asking him a few questions thank god they let us in because we just want to pay some visits to our family's relatives
Ur father must be corrupted AF
so what? royal malaysian police big meh? in the end still corrupted, Najib's lackies
@@darkdino5 not everyone is trying to do a dodgy job. Dont judge everyone by the same brush
@@darkdino5 Don't be a disgrace to Singaporeans .
if that is the case that's mean they got intelligence in bukit aman or in putrajaya as i suspected a long time ago and their computer system database is very efficient and updated because even your father is retiree still the system can detected him as malaysia ex special branch
He say “not mine not mine”, then he say “my toolbox for work” lol
I like how the Singaporean cops immediately put on their Wingchun move once a knife was pulled out.
Perfect way they have done their excercise & they do their Job Sincerely...Proud To See & Say , They are Real Singaporeans❤🙏🙏
Thank you ICA officers for working hard to keep Singapore safe
"Eggs" and "Beans" ~insert heart eyes emoji~
a smuggler will get death penalty in singapore....it is suicide to do this
Astronomia starts playing in the background.
Thank you for making Singapore safe ICA. Always stay safe too on the job 🙏
Laws in Singapore are the best.
The interviewer asking questions like she’s so done with her job
what happens if the potential smuggler hides their contraband in a lead-lined compartment? would the x-ray still be able to penetrate it?
wow-awesome security. - wish all countries will do just like that. what wonderful country and world we live in.
This guy could be literally fighting for his life. Caught with certain drugs in bulk is guaranteed death.
No mercy for smugglers 👍
Barbaric
Stupid law
@@mikkeleften1415keep crying you crybaby westerns rofl
@@mikkeleften1415cry about it
“Not mine not mine” then “my toolbox for work”
Imagine smuggling some salt and then the next second the entire police force on your tail to arrest yoi
@@realcartoongirl i like ur mom on a plate
Would be criminals would probably download this video for classroom training. 😆
When I saw the title I just remembered the "electric chair *slaps hammer" meme lol
I love it. Protect the borders. Strict laws are for everyone's safety. Only criminals hate strict crime laws. Who in their right mind walks down the street and thinks " my biggest nightmare today is the strict crime laws because i might get framed". Don't ruin the country by lowering your standards, low crime is good and difficult to get by. 😂
I agree wholeheartedly.
Smuggling drugs into Singapore has gotta be the toughest job in the world.
4:40 - a course to equip officers with the legislation and laws to better understand proper procedures.
American police need to learn from this.
Always remember what PCK said "Don't pray pray ahh!"
When border open I want go back 😭miss my family 🥺😣
Well done 👍
Wonder what kinda of health hazard, if any, exposed to drivers who deliver goods daily to spore when exposed to these x-ray scanners? ICA should clarify
Thanks for letting me know which countries to keep out of list is getting big these days
Talking about safe Singapore,I was conned three times in Singapore about five years back.
Why don't you tell us what happened to you ?
@@ML-yu5ij why don't you give me your full name?
@@KironManuelCards I see no relation to you telling us what happened to you ? Mr Manuelllllll
Oh by the way. Nice stamp collection 🤡
@@KironManuelCards you're right across the causeway and you're acting Spanish ,Mr Manuelllllll . Wanna know the number of Singaporeans who were " conned" in your country ? You may want to read up on the latest news instead of ogling over your stamp collection . Mr Manuelllllll
Singapore should concentrate on drug pushers rather then drug users alone. If every drug consume case treated as drug pushers, more innocent life ( who was tricked into taking or consumed drug) going to be hanged. Don't kill anymore unnecessary people. They are victim to bigger drug lord. Don,t take shortcuts in dealing with drugs. So the guy found the drugs tepi paritkah sampai you orang tak boleh cari the supplier. Once y find the supplier maybe y will find a bigger pusher.
I'm proud of my country 😊
Suprised to learn it was a simulation lol thought they actually filmed someone getting caught smuggling
And there is a good chance if this was a legitimate situation, the driver 'might' face the death penalty.
Poor dude had to go through all that just to demonstrate
Since the video didn't actually tell you: traffickers are typically faced with the death penalty in Singapore.
If its so difficult to smuggle in drugs into sg from all points of entry.. then how isit that drug is still avail in sg?
Nothing is 100%. Probably only primary school spelling test can get 100%.
Because its easy wizzy
inside job. inside people. different shifts. officers friends with smugglers.
There are many commercially available drugs that are very similar or identical to street drugs.
Heroin was once created by the drug company Bayer.
I miss subutex :(
I have been pulled over before, but they ask me to remain seated in the vehicle. They bring out their dog and circle it around my vehicle before signaling me to leave the pit.
If there a spoon
Police: drop the spoon it will be funny
is it possible to replace the stuffing inside car seats with contraband?
All their catches are from Information tip off. Those in the force will know.
Grateful to ICA for job well done
There are ways to beat the technology. You need well trained officers to fill the gaps
Imagine during a training, the guy who have to play as the smuggler has to fake it so well
You know, freedom is a much better option
Since the subject is *actually* wielding a weapon, our OFFICELS will *actually* draw their night sticks and *actually* attempt to *actually* take the suspect down.
This is a good documentary
Haiyaaaaaa....come Malaysia la singapore...we bong together..
Guy: *Smuggles drugs*
Singapore: I see you have chosen death.....la
I hope these guys are paid well.
I think so because they dont take bribe. And if they do they will hang too!
Now I know how to plan my escape
Wow goood job
Wow. He almost hit his head on the curb. We would have lost a drug king pen.
The reenactment though…
Once we get here we pass on to the inspection.
.once we get here we pass on to search
once we get here we pass on to security
once we get here we pass on to detection
Once we get here......
............
Drug smugglers already taking notes while watching this
a smuggler will get death penalty in singapore....it is suicide to do this
Haha the tunes of thier words 😁😬😬😬😆👍
If they r telling the reporter, the subject would know he is in trouble
Wah seh the smuggler acting 10/10 should join mediacorp instead
God bless, all the tiger team cop, to handle the criminal, great job, salute, bless2, stay strong, staysafe, health, protect the country, frm.rad.god luck.
I’m shocked at how good their English is
i think the guy likes being manhandled LMAO
Yeah, these guys won't last 10 seconds in other countries
Still many drug cases in Singapore.
