Quoted from one of this months travel magazines...

"In Singapore, which places a high value on order, prostitution is legal but careless disposal of chewing gum can invoke fines up to $500. (sale of the stuff is highly controlled). Jay-walking and spitting result in similar fines. On the bright side, Singapore saves canings for more serious offenses, such as vandalism, for which American teenager Michael Faye received a public lashing in 1994."
