So, it’s a crime to accept gifts from a friend but not to overpay friends using public money?

Being a good friend seems to be far better than having good friends.

This article is paywalled as similar will be in the future, whenever I choose to discuss the topic of curious laws in Singapore (at least those which stray into the realm of politics).

I don't want it to be taken as a criticism of local legal order but, then again, I do find the outcome of the two cases which gripped the local society in recent years to be a bit perplexing.
