The gang fight at Downtown East was a inappropriate incident that happened in Singapore, which is also perceived by many as a safe country. The victim, Darren Ng was just a 19-year-old polytechnic student. It was such a shame for a teenager to pass on at such young age, moreover he was killed due to mere staring incident. The 4 men were charged for causing the death of Darren Ng may be sentenced to death.

I feel the government should implement stricter laws regarding unlawful assembly such as triad gangs. Those who were involved in unlawful activities should be counseled and place them under close supervision of the police. Hopefully, by doing so, it will bring the gangsters back to track and contribute the society positively.

It would also be possible to invite ex-gangsters to give a talk to teenagers about his/her experience as a gangster. The talk may include the risks they went through and consequences which cause their regret and also what caused them to turn over a new leaf.
