In a bold move to save the planet ten cents at a time, Singapore has mandated elite tactical training for all F&B staff to identify returnable beverage containers.

The intensive course teaches waiters to intercept customers attempting to "crush" barcodes, an act now considered a high-level felony against the environment.

Specialised "no-crush" bunkers are being constructed in cramped hawker stalls to house sticky, pest-attracting bottles like national treasures.

“Government think we very free is it?” asked one local Hawker Centre Cleaner.

“Now I must check every single Milo tin like CID investigating crime scene.”

“If the barcode koyak, the machine don't want, then my ten cents burn already lor.”

“Siao ting tong, man!”
