P: I can conclude that it was a challenging task for the police force to handle the amount of immigrants and the growing population of Singapore.
Ev:"72% of the total local population are ethnic Chinese. Most Chinese Immigrants to Singapore were male labourers."
"treating the Chinese coolies badly due to growing of migrant population. Because of that, lot of Chinese coolies died."

E: this with the growing migrant population ended up having an impact on the Chinese and so they grouped together and formed secret societies, which caused much harm to other people in Singapore even if they were inside the secret society. Causing massive spikes in cases around the year, causing the police force in Singapore to be unable to handle the amount of cases caused by the Secret Societies.
Conclusion: I can conclude that with a growing migrant population, it was tough to maintain law and order as they were many challenges such as secret societies, etc. The population started to increase rapidly when they were more police officers which meant that the country lacked safely and if there were police officers the country would be safer and having more police officers is the solution to maintain law and order and overcome challenges in the country.

— I can infer from the source that from year 1830s to 1860s, the number of police officers and the population of Singapore is increasing. I guess it's because as the years went by the amount of police officers increased and the city became safer and people stopped getting murdered and the death rate was lower and so the population increased.

Source C: A departmental store advertisement for guns, published in the 1920s. At that time, firearms were openly available for sale in Singapore.

— I can infer from the source that firearms were common to have in the 1920s. I guess that since firearms were so openly available for sale, there must have been a lot of crime happening, like robbery, murder and others, all these are very serious as people can get seriously hurt or even die.
