entrapment?
read this from my cousin's blog. and i think she's right.
entrapment is like tempting someone to commit a crime so that you can catch him/her in the act of committing it. and yeap. singapore practises it.
taking from her blog an example of an insurance agent who in order to meet a certain quota desperately requires customers. then some plain clothes policeman acting as some rich big shot comes up to him with an offer of helping him to meet his quota on the basis that he has to buy drugs from him. while in the process of doing so, the other policemen of the team comes swopping down liek eager hawks to arrest the poor guy. why? coz he got tempted. it's tempting. but in the first place, were that option not available to him, would he have even thought of it?
just like my cousin, i believe that all men are good by nature. it's the environment that shapes us all. not only the environment. the people, the work we do, the things surrounding us.
entrapment is dumb. i personally knew a person who went to jail coz of that. and there's nothing i could do about it. it's sad coz i knew that she had a great life ahead of her before all these occur. it's not fair if cnb has to meet a certain quota each month and resort to entrapment just to meet their quota.
