Singapore Sotongs
Silly sign at Sentosa’s Universal Studios site

STOMPer Justice007 spotted this sign at Sentosa’s Universal Studios Singapore and says that it has been there for weeks.

“This picture was taken at Sentosa Universal Studios to remind offenders not to pee here or face a fine,” he wrote in an email to STOMP.

“Those in charge of that project should be able to convert it to the correct translation.

“It has been there for weeks.”

The english here is easy to understand for some group of people. I don't want to go into details on who the group is. And this is not for Chinese as there is already chinese charactar here.

Imagine if it say "Urinating here is strictly prohibited and offenders face heavy penalty", they will ask what is urinating, what is prohibited, offender is what, I no understand penalty.

Even (machine translation) Google Translate does better , although not perfect. Here is what Google Translate gives "Xiao Bian here is strictly prohibited and offenders face heavy penalty"
