That robot dog is a gimmick, there's maybe 2 of them in the entire country, and they're not used for enforcement at all. You're right about the surveillance and tough stance on drugs. This results in crime being virtually non-existent.

Crime is absolutely not non-existent. Plenty of crime gets reported in the media and the Singapore Police deal with plenty more that never gets reported in the press.
