Just Follow Law


Just Follow Law is a Singapore-produced comedy film starring Fann Wong and Gurmit Singh. The lecturer showed the part of it to us in class.

The film takes a satirical look at the inflexibility of outdated governmental rules and regulations and the rigid mindsets of local civil servants who follow rules to a fault. We can do not follow some kind of outdates rules and regulations in a certain extent.

The reason we have laws in society is to keep general order to our everyday living. We have to follow the law. Law creates social cohesion or harmony throughout all people. We cannot walk through the street when traffic light is red, even though there is no car. Every citizen has to follow law in any situation.

I am very wonder about Malaysia can import laws from England. I think this is not a good way to solve problems of law in any situations. If there is no law to refer, the government can constitute new laws for certain problems. The laws of England can be referenced, but it cannot be used directly without changing. I am not local, maybe I have some misunderstanding.
