Yeah, I was more responding to @AIRwin and whether otherwise bonefide travellers from Oz get caught out.Many don't do it before flying - there are dedicated tablets in the immigration arrivals for those who haven't.
The article indicated that Singapore Authorities are 1) able to filter out more with the ICA with name matching and 2) their facial recording would show them using a false name/passport after such PAX had previously arrived at least once.
The implication being the ICA is more reliable at this than manual counter interviews.
The spread of US ESTA like pre approvals show that they’re effective.
