I wouldn't want to mess with her! I bet she gives out A LOT of fines! Since Singapore is such a fine city...

It makes them sound nice and friendly! here they are traffic Wardens and issue tickets at the drop of a hat. Not very popular at all!

Ha, I have been wanting to take a picture of a "Singapore parking Auntie" for a long time for my blog but have been scared to snap a picture.

I now have this irrational fear of elderly women in white especially if they are Malay.

marley,
in Spore, they are a terror too. they can be spotted a mile away by those guilty of not putting parking coupons. LOL

taoism,
they are not that scary. Maybe if you ask them to pose, they might! haha...
