Singapore is taking a bold stand against the rising tide of scams, with the Ministry of Home Affairs considering caning as a punishment for severe offenses. In 2024 alone, victims lost a staggering S$1.1 billion to scams, marking a 70.6% increase from the previous year. One particularly alarming case saw a victim lose S$125 million in a cryptocurrency scam. This proposed measure aims to serve as a strong deterrent against such fraudulent activities. What are your thoughts on this approach? Could caning be the solution to curb the scam epidemic? Join the discussion in the comments below.​
