ISSUES

A dispute going on in Singapore is getting fresh water delivered to Singapore, but Malaysia is trying to stop it because they think that Singapore is stealing their water. Indonesia and Singapore are still trying to finalize the maritime boundarines that were created way back in 1973. A second issue in Singapore is the drug trafficing because it is a small country and it is easy to be transported from one side of the country to another side. The solution for this problem is the strict laws and the major aggresiveness of the Law Enforcement.
