事情是这样的:
我坐早班车从马来西亚进新加坡,把烟盒开了,留19根在烟盒里面,抽出1根放在上衣口袋,打算过关前抽掉(我基本上每个月都过去马来西亚一次,每次都是带一整包烟,抽掉一根再过关的)。
然而那天在车上一直睡,把上衣口袋那根烟给忘了。到过海关的时候才想起来,我就主动把上衣那支掏出来,想扔掉,可是还是被拉去罚了200块。。。
带一包烟过海关未申报,被罚款200,领到了一张 "Summary of Customs Offence".
单子详情如下:

现在每天都情绪低落,怕影响PR的申请。
在申请表上,有一项:
(d)
Been convicted of or currently charged with a crime or offence in
i)
Singapore?
Yes
No
ii)
Any other Country?
Yes
No
If your answer is “Yes” to any of the above,please provide a detailed explanation
on a separate sheet of paper.
如果是,那么还要提供详细的解释。也不知道这个解释怎么写,请问会不会有个模板或者标准的格式呢?哎,一筹莫展啊。。。
另外更严重一点的是,怕PR申请不过,明年更新准证也因为这样的记录受到影响 (记得准证申请表上也有类似的一项:I have never been convicted in a court of law
in any country.)。这样一来,就没法在新加坡待下去了。
