A FILIPINO nurse was jailed for five weeks on Wednesday for stealing a colleague’s ATM card and withdrawing $600 from her account.
Filipina Valdez Ducusin, 30, admitted to stealing Ms Regina Png Yuan Yi’s POSB ATM card from a locker room at the Singapore General Hospital on April 30 last year. About two hours later, she withdrew $600 from her account after having earlier memorised the 20-year-old victim’s birth date.

Before this spins into another “Flor Contemplacion” incident, people (Singaporeans and foreigners alike) should know that when you do your crime here in Singapore, you are punishable by Singapore law.
It’s not that Singapore is merciless when it comes to criminals. It’s just that you shouldn’t be that stupid to do your criminal acts here and expect leniency.
