Singapore Will Add Iris Scans As Identifier For Citizens And Permanent Residents Starting January 1 (channelnewsasia.com)

Posted by msmash on Thursday December 29, 2016 @02:40AM from the privacy-debate dept.

From the beginning of next year, authorities will start collecting iris images from Singapore citizens and permanent residents (PRs) when they register or re-register for their NRIC, or apply for or renew a passport, said the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA). From a report: The iris images will serve as another identifier to boost verification methods, in addition to the photographs and fingerprints already used on the documents. The change is part of amendments to the National Registration Act, which were passed in Parliament in November and paves the way for iris scans to be introduced progressively at Singapore's land and sea checkpoints within the next two years. In a statement on Wednesday (Dec 28), MHA said the amendments will take effect on Jan 1.

  Singapore is quite a remarkable country: it is ruled by one party since it became independent, but still it has little corruption and is very proud of this fact.
  It does much better than the surrounding countries at preventing low level corruption - minor government officials explicitly breaking the law in exchange for bribes. On the other hand, if corruption is defined more broadly as people in positions of power using that power for personal gain then Singapore is deeply corrupt at the very highest levels. Like North Korea, Singapore is basically owned by the descendants of the founding prime minister / dictator. For example, the current prime minister is the son of the founding prime minister. Singapore does have elections. But there is a complex network of laws limiting the ability of opposition parties to campaign effectively. The concept of freedom of speech is basically non-existent in Singapore. Back when "The Economist" put a Charlie Hebdo cartoon on it's front cover, Singapore was one of the few countries where the cover was left blank.
  
  The rules for society have frozen since the independence: porn just as homosexuality is forbidden, and hetero oral sex was legalized about one decade ago (until then it was forbidden as well!).
  And not just commercial porn but also taking naked photos in a private context (e.g. a wife sending her husband a naked selfie). But prostitution was and still is legal in Singapore (although prostitution related activities, such as pimping, are illegal so one has to be careful). In Singapore, speech (porn) is considered to be much more dangerous than actions (prostitution).
  
  Also, they still punish people by caning, another remainder of the british colonial past.
  And not just the adults but also the school children - which goes a long way toward explaining their high scores on standardized tests.
  
  Their low corruption index is attained through two main things: an anti-corruption agency that can act independently from the government, and lots of surveillance and spying.
  Free speech is very limited in Singapore - not just by law but also by culture. A couple years ago some British guy did a Facebook post implying that people in Singapore who can afford not to ride the public transportation generally don't (i.e. it's the poorer people in Singapore that ride the public transportation out of economic necessity) - and, while that's more or less the truth, he got run out out of the country with death threats. But corruption indexes are typically based on answers that people give on surveys. Imagine going to North Korea and asking people if they thought their government was corrupt - well, it's a lot like that in Singapore.
  The one thing that Singapore does do well is provide a strong safety net right at the very bottom of society. Of course, you're not allowed to stay in Singapore if you're a foreigner who doesn't have a job (mandatory minimum three strokes of the cane if you stay in Singapore beyond what is allowed on your government permit). But Singapore citizens who would otherwise be in desperate poverty get all kinds of aggressive help from the government. Essentially no one is homeless in Singapore - you're either going to be in government housing or a mental hospital - but not just wandering out on the street.
  Anyway, this social safety net is almost certainly a major (often overlooked) factor in the low crime (including low level corruption) rate in Singapore.
  
  Singapore is what modern colonial England would look like if there were no progress in society, and I guess mainland England is slowly developing into that direction again.
  There's a lot to like about Singapore and I'm grateful for everything that Singapore did for me while I was there.

  A secular country surrounded by Muslim countries, but with a better track record of anti terrorism compared to US and EU?
  Well, Singapore is at the tip of the Malaysian peninsula. And, while Malaysia is a predominantly Muslim country, it's problems go far beyond religion. Putting it bluntly, the whole country of Malaysia is just full on bat-shit insane.
  And then there's the (huge) islands of Indonesia all down to the south. Indonesia is, of course, also predominantly Muslim. But mostly it's just huge (4th largest by population after the USA) and very very poor - still not really recovered from decades of anti-communist / anti-Chinese dictatorship - not that the Dutch ("East India Company") did it any favors before that (i.e. before WWII).
  But then, up to the north there's Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam along the coast. And Laos and Myanmar/Burma a bit further inland. And then the Philippines up to the northeast are duking it out with the Chinese up in the South China sea (i.e. you get to China if you go just a bit further North). And India and Bangladesh and Sri Lanka are all up to the North east of Singapore
  So, yes, the are a couple significant Muslim-majority countries nestled right up next to Singapore. But the neighborhood generally is very diverse in terms of race, religion, ethnicity, etc.
  
  Their pragmatic approach is way better than the pretentious western politics.
  Having lived in both Singapore and the USA, there are complex advantages and disadvantages to both. A strength can also be a weakness. But when I was in Singapore I missed my freedom of speech (posting on Slashdot and internet porn) and I found the massive inequality in Singapore to be deeply disturbing (not that the USA doesn't also have its pockets of desperate poverty).

  Singapore refuse to accept refugees.
  It's a lot more complex than that.
  Singapore has a population of about 5.6 million of which only about 3.4 million are citizens. The rest are 1.7 million non-residents (e.g. foreign workers) and 0.5 million permanent residents.
  So Singapore has a relatively massive population of foreigners. But the unemployment rate in Singapore is around 1-2%. Which flies in the face of the idea that foreigners are bad for an economy.
  Now, regarding true refugees (e.g. who drift down the coast from countries like Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam in overcrowded barely seaworthy boats). Well, the Singapore navy intercepts them and gives them (unmarked) boxes of food and gives them instructions on how to navigate to other countries besides Singapore. :)
  Of course, if you're caught staying in Singapore illegally it's a mandatory minimum three strokes of the cane - so there's also a healthy trade in smuggling people out of Singapore (e.g. across the border in Malaysia) - so they don't get caned.

  I assume that you are referring to your live-in maid from overseas (very common in Singapore)?
  The live-in maid situation in Singapore is deeply concerning from a whole variety of view points. First, there's the salary - typically about $400/month USD (S$600 SGD) - significantly less than would be allowed under even the very weak USA minimum wage laws. And then there's the fact that, if they're married, they have to leave their families behind in their home countries. It's not good for children to have to grow up without their mothers.
  But the big problem is exploitation and abuse. Every month or so in Singapore there's another story about a maid who was starved and tortured by her Singapore employers. The women who are brought in to be maids from the surrounding countries typically come from extremely disadvantaged backgrounds - little formal education, barely speaking English (the official language of Singapore), and no financial resources to fall back on in an emergency. It's very difficult for the maids to go back to their home countries if an employer turns out to be abusive. Maids are basically prisoners of their employers.
  That's not to say that every single maid is a paragon of virtue with a heart of gold. But if you want to fault the Singapore justice system in regard to the Singapore system of foreign live-in maids then start with the Singapore employers who starve and torture their maids and then receive only a minor slap on the wrist - if they are even prosecuted at all.

  Yes AC thats what most nations do, they count everyone in and out.
  If you are allowed to stay you have to be studying, on holiday, working or have some other really good reason for been in any normal nation.
  The same is followed up for work, education, health care and tourists in most normal nations. When your work or study or holiday is over you go back to your own nation again.
  As for scans, it makes it easy to see who entered, why and for how long they can stay. If they over stay they can be tracked at work, if in study.
  Fake or shared papers produced on demand are then totally useless unless gov files can be altered.
  Australia tried the 100 point check https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... but that has its limits as layers of not difficult to fake/obtain documents build up the needed profile.
  Considering the ability to keep documents safe at the gov level the iris scan adds another level of much needed security.

Even the micro-muscular pupillary reflex varies, which is why advanced systems use video to record and compare the changes in an Iris due to stimulation, such as a change in light level or color. This is to prevent photographic fraud- a still image doesn't change. Anyway, kids tend to have bluer eyes, which pale over time. Not much an issue in Singapore.
  The thing is, after getting into the Tech... Eyes are beautiful. One of the great advantages of severe Myopia is getting up close and personal with a beautiful pair of Eyes. And yet this can be abused; get a far-sighed girl close, and you can see into her eyes, but she can't see into yours. Say some key words, maybe a slight stroke at the base of the thumb, and pay attention. The Iris widens, nostrils flare, breathing increases, capillaries in the cheeks expand. You can play her like a Theremin.
