Chinese woman jailed for overstaying in Singapore for 19 years

An ex-ICA officer from Singapore was jailed for three weeks and fined S$6,500 after his car crashed into a concrete barrier while he was intoxicated. Ken Ong Wei Qi, who was an Assistant Superintendent of Police at the time, lied to the police, claiming he consumed alcohol only at home. On June 14, 2025, the 35-year-old drove from Prinsep Street to Pasir Ris, but could not find a designated driver. After the accident, his breath alcohol content was found to be double the legal limit of 35 microgrammes.
