I was held for two hours with a return tix just for a short visit lmao. The senior on the interogation area looked at my passport and return ticket and asked two questions and she just straight up. "Yeah I dont know why you got sent here".
It's actually amazing what Singapore have achieved against all odds and with the lowest tax in ASEAN on top of it. All discipline and super low corruption.
Imagine all of the nice things we could've gotten if all the money actually spent on the betterment of the things that mattered instead of enriching the crooks.
I did 40 days and out to Japan for 12 days. After my flight back to BKK they sent me to the interogation room. Maybe because I'm came from not a rich country with weak passport.
The senior officer lady in the room look at my passport and asked on my job and salary, I gave her my work contract and after a few minutes of chat she said i don't know why they sent me there and escorted me to an empty counter to stamp me in. Was an interesting experience.
