It is easy because thieves break into the stalls by open ceiling, getting a leg up on the pipes or metal bars running along the walls, and the security was not tight.

1b)What is the geylang East Central Merchants' Association going to do about the break-ins

The Geylang East Central Merchants' Association will be conducting a meeting a week after the burglury incident and will be in touch with the relevant authorities, such as NEA and town councils, to look into improving security and modifying stall layouts and designs. Hawkers are also advised not to leave valuables in their stalls and to buy insurance to guard against theft.
