One of the advantages of CCTVs is the ability to watch and observe anything that is happening. This is important as it can be able to prevent crimes and terrorism from happening, it is also an effective way to check on the daily happenings in which people might be afraid to tell the police, such as loan sharks collecting "protection fee".
A disadvantage of the CCTVs is that it intrudes people's privacy. For example, some people might be doing something that they might not want people to know and the CCTV is actually filming the footage of the person carrying out the act.
I think Singapore should implement this system of CCTVs as they are important in keeping the crime rate low and this far outweighs the disadvantages as long as the people who are watching the footage do not leak it out.
The implications on my own privacy if Singapore implements this system is very little as I do not do any things that I do not want others to know.
