According to a survey on sexual harassment conducted in Singapore in June 2019, ** percent of male respondents stated that they learned self-defense as a precaution against sexual harassment.
In Singapore, the term 鈥渟exual harassment鈥 does not yet have a legal definition. However, the Protection from Harassment Act (鈥淧OHA鈥) 2014 provides various criminal sanctions, civil and self-help remedies to better protect people from harassment and related anti-social behavior. Unfortunately, applying for an order under POHA is complicated and costly. Applicants would need a lawyer to assist in the preparation and submission of documents and subsequent proceedings, which can be expensive.
