The mere mention of 'ID cards' is all that is needed to get the middle-aged, bespectacled proprietor to reach under the counter for a well-worn catalogue of IDs. IDs from the University of California, Berkeley, and University of California, Los Angeles, are more popular, he said. To 'register', a customer fills in his name and date of birth on a slip of paper. The proprietor then opens the relevant ID template in image editing software Photoshop, and asks the customer to enter the same information. Photographs are taken on the spot with a small camera. A white piece of cardboard held up by an assistant serves as the backdrop. After 20 minutes of printing and laminating, the ID is ready, for just $30, the going rate for such IDs here. The shop is well known among teens for its 'don't ask, don't tell' policy and fast, efficient service. The Straits Times also found a 16-year-old student at a tertiary institution who went into the business herself two months ago. Using money saved from a part-time job organising events, she spent more than $1,000 on a colour laser printer cum laminator, as well as a stack of blank PVC cards from the United States.

You can earn a lot if you know how to be smart.' But what if she got caught? 'I'm very careful. Only the careless get caught.'
