Police Probe Bizarre Gets in Yishun Overflowing with Gang Chant
When a 35‑second clip popped up on Facebook this week, it was not your typical getai—no catchy mandopop or flamboyant costumes. Instead, it showed a bunch of men being loud about the Ang Soon Tong gang during a Yishun getai. Police have now stepped in to investigate.
