Perhaps with the Lunar New Year coming up and the pressure for everyone to appear richer than everyone else, Sengkang Neighbourhood Police Centre decided to send out a strong message against shoplifting during the festive prison.

They did so by creating and posting a variation of the popular 'Be Like Bill' meme that advocates "smart" online behaviour – you've probably seen one of these in long, angry comment threads all around the internet.

Well, here's Sengkang Neighbourhood Police Centre's rendition, (probably) gloriously created with the state-of-the-art computer graphics software known to us as Microsoft Paint.

Bill is on the Internet.

Bill needs to send out a message to remind people not to steal stuff.

Bill creates a relevant meme that will be widely shared by the public.

The meme is shared almost 500 times in 20 hours.

Bill is smart.

Be like Bill.
