My Views (Dreo Tan [12])

1. What are the advantages of CCTV surveillance ?
There are many advantages of CCTV surveillance mainly monitoring and recording things. Used widely all over the world such as in shopping centers and in public transport places like mrt and in many other locations. Many people use it to monitor their workers working and to prevent theft and so on. I think that it is very useful as you can monitor things from far away locations and also record anything to be viewed next time and it can record everything without error and the record can be viewed at anytime and can be viewed as many times. It also can be stopped, slowed to be viewed. It can also help lower crime rates.

2. What are the disadvantages of CCTV surveillance ?
Although it is very widely used, there are still many disadvantages of CCTV like it runs on electricity so if someone or there was an accident where the power supply is cut or runs out, it is useless. It also cost lots and I feel that people should just not steal.

3. Do you think that Singapore should step up on CCT surveillance in light of the economic downturn and the increase in the number of crimes ?
No I think that Singapore should focus more on implying the values on the younger generations and increase the penalty for caught for being caught committing crime.

4. What are the implications for your own privacy ?
If you do not want any CCTV surveillance no one can force you to have it if someone really does you can report to the police as it is really harassing. If your parents use CCTV surveillance to spy on you, that is really rude so try to let your parents have more trust in you.
