This is hilarious. First they did not know how to explain the policy. Then they made claims that others have done it but could not provide an example of a single country that did it. Now this. Obviously nobody told MHA that they have to get standalone PCs that is not connected to the Civil Service Servers to handle public interactions of this nature.

Go to the link below to see silly image of reply to the member of public reporting it. Honestly what a fucked PM. And he was the first to road-test it. How about explaining to the Civil Service what you want to achieve so they are not lost.

Traffic Police’s reply shows how ‘no internet for public officers’ policy may affect general public
By The Independent - June 26, 2016 13 826


Facebook group Roads.sg shared the picture of a message from the Traffic Police to an unidentified person, telling him that they are not able to access the internet to view the footage of an incident. They asked the person to transfer the video footage of the incident into a VCD, and send it to their headquarters.
1Roads.sg captioned the picture:

“Apparently one user tried submitting a video online to Traffic Police and got this reply. Government disconnecting themselves from the internet will bring the whole reporting system back to 10 years ago. Where we need to save any electronic data into flash drives or burn a VCD then drive down and physically hand it over.

Oh no, this cannot be real. #BangHeadOnWall”

The Singapore Government confirmed that the work computers of public officers will have no access to the Internet to guard against cyber-attacks over the internet and to create a “more secure working environment”. The ‘no internet’ policy is already enforced in some public offices, and will be fully enforced in all Government agencies from June 2017 onwards.
