First of all, take anything Gopalan Nair writes with a grain of salt.
Secondly, most of the fodder following the post there seems to be about coming back to Singapore on a foreign passport and what right would Singapore have in arresting said foreigner.
For the record, when looking at citizenship, always, your citizenship of birth will take precedence over a naturalized citizenship. Additionally, if you are breaking the law by not having renounced your citizenship in Singapore legally, whether or not you have a Singapore Passport is immaterial.
As far as caning is concerned, I think that comment was made tongue-in-cheek. But the jail time and subsequent doing of NS and then expulsion from the country and revocation of your citizenship at that point is probably fact.
It's a gamble you may well win. But the penalties if you loose may be rather stiff. And with the new combined databases and face recognition software, it would only depend on the alertness of the office at the immigration counter.
Good luck on whatever you decide to do.
