Facial recognition has major societal implications. I’m happy not to be concerned by this initiative, be it in Singapore
or elsewhere. If you read French, the French Data Protection Agency (CNIL) has published earlier this week a very 
good white paper on the topic, worth reading:

The categories include stuff like broken road signs, unkempt sidewalk grass, shopping trolleys abandoned, etc.  You are encouraged to take a photo and fill in a short description of what you think is wrong. The app records the GPS location, and *your* contact details..
