Are illegal haircuts considered VICE?
Written by ED on October 3, 2007 – 7:44 am -Shock? Yes, I am indeed shocked two folds. I am shocked because illegal haircut activities in Geylang has been labelled as VICE. The second shock was, it was Mediacorp’s MOB-TV who published that descriptive writeup labelling it as VICE.
I had watched this segment last night, hence I decided to search for more information online until I came across MOB-TV website. To summarize the episode, legal barbers who own barbershops in the Geylang vicinity have been complaining about illegal barbers, who are made up of foreign workers. They provide low cost haircut as low as SGD$3 for their fellow foreign workers and has attracted displeasure from these barbershops owners who charged approximately three times higher.
My question: Have Singaporeans become such hypocrites?
