Citizenship in Singapore embraces order and pollution control by enforcing the following ordinances: ( 1) citizens must pay $625 fine for littering, ( 2 ) $325 fine for eating on the subway, (3) $94.00 fine for failing to flush a public toliet, (4) the sale of chewing gum is outlawed, as is smoking in public.

My point of view: It would be a social travesty if americans could not purchase chewing gum, but it would, but the custodians throughout the county would be happy not to have to scrape the gum from beneath tables.
