The National Environment Agency has finally solved Singapore’s wealth gap by launching the “Return Right” website, a high-tech treasure map designed to help residents hunt down 10-cent fortunes hidden in literal garbage.

With machines located within five minutes of most homes, experts predict a 400% increase in aunties sprinting across six lanes of traffic to intercept empty green tea bottles.

The scheme effectively transforms every Singaporean into a venture capitalist of refuse, trading their dignity for a sum that wouldn't even cover a plastic bag at FairPrice.

“Wah lao, 10 cents is 10 cents hor,” one local scavenger noted while wrestling a toddler for a crushed Sprite can.

“Steady lah, collect enough can buy one tissue paper from uncle liao!”

This satire is based on a real news story.
