Watch out, former MP Amrin Amin has formed his own gang.

On April 17, some 30 ex-offenders with Amrin brought groceries and festive goods to Blk 4 and Blk 5 Beach Road, along with $2,000 to help needy families. Some of his 'gang members' mentioned they've crossed paths with Amrin during their prison days, though he said he can't remember most of them due to the inmates' identical haircuts.

He adds that the group is aware of people doubting and questioning them. In his many talks with them, his advice for them is to "make sure you don't prove some of the doubters right."
