Teen Girls Grapple in HDB Block Fight, Onlookers Cheer

A fight between two teenage girls at the lift landing of an HDB block has drawn criticism after a video of the altercation surfaced online. The footage was posted on SGFollowsAll's Telegram page on Jan. 8, showing the girls grappling as three other teens — two females and a male — looked on.

The male youth, seated on a plastic chair near the lift, appeared to be orchestrating or supervising the fight. It is believed someone else was recording the incident.

The fight began with a girl in a white t-shirt wrestling her opponent, who was dressed in black, to the ground. The girl in white landed several blows, prompting retaliation from the girl in black. Applause followed, with the male youth commenting, "This is what I wanna see."

The roles reversed when the girl in black regained control, dragging her opponent down and striking her in return.

The video sparked widespread criticism. Viewers lamented the apparent normalization of such behavior among youths. While some expressed concerns about an increase in such incidents, others noted that the proliferation of smartphones and social media has made such fights more visible, even if they are not more frequent.

Authorities have not commented on the incident at this time, but the video has reignited discussions on youth behavior and the influence of social media on such antics.

PM Lawrence Wong Declares War on Vapes and Kpods in Singapore

Prime Minister Lawrence Wong announced on 17 August 2025 that Singapore will take much tougher action against vaping, treating it as a serious drug issue with stiffer penalties. While vaping has been banned since 2018, illegal imports continue, often containing harmful substances like etomidate. The government plans to impose harsher fines, jail time, and mandatory rehabilitation for offenders, while providing addiction support for users. A nationwide enforcement campaign will target schools, tertiary institutions, and national service personnel. Recent measures include reclassifying etomidate under the Misuse of Drugs Act, collaboration between HSA and Hong Kong authorities, and hiring investigators to crack down on Kpods. The public can report vaping offences via hotline or online, and those seeking help to quit will not face penalties. Authorities aim to combine education, enforcement, and rehabilitation to curb vaping and protect young people in Singapore.
