Foreigners Behaving Badly - Committing Murder, Hooliganism And Other Crimes In Singapore - Thryft

Crime-prone foreigners upset Singapore's peace

This book provides an eye-opening account of the dark side of Singapore's cosmopolitan culture, featuring stories of misbehavior and criminal acts committed by foreigners who failed to acclimatize to their new surroundings. The author's frank and engaging writing will engage readers interested in exploring the less-spoken aspect of cultural adaptation, and help them to better understand the risks and challenges faced by immigrants in foreign lands.

Description

Moving to a new country to live is difficult, having to adapt to the culture and new environment. Most people settle down nicely but a handful don t get used to their newly adopted home. Here then are stories of foreigners in Singapore who behave badly; committing murder, financial scams, vandalism and more. Read about the domestic helper who murdered her employer, the Swiss IT consultant who vandalised an MRT train, the Bangladeshi worker who killed his Indonesian girl friend as well as the Romanian diplomat involved in a hit and run accident. Ignorance of Singaporean law does not save you from prosecution and punishment as these foreigners found out, the hard way.
