Just Follow Law (Chinese: 我在政府部门的日子) is a 2007 Singaporean comedy film directed by Jack Neo, and starring Gurmit Singh, Fann Wong, Brandon Wong, Suhaimi Yusof, Moses Lim, David Bala, Samuel Chong and Steven Woon.
In the film, a blue-collar technician and the events and promotion department director swap souls after a freak accident at a fictional government agency Work Allocation Singapore (WAS). It was first released in Singapore on 15 February 2007.
Lim Teng Zui is a WAS technician who is also a single father to a young girl named Xiao Mei. He is employed by the director of WAS's Events and Promotion department, the prideful Tanya Chew. Tanya stays in a condominium and has a single mother, a blogger whom she has neglected. Lim has drawn little salary, and strives hard to earn more so that he can buy Xiao Mei a piano and original abalone, whereas Tanya constantly tries to improve the terrible image of her department. Both workers are under employment of Alan Lui, the CEO of WAS.
One day, Alan briefs Tanya, Lau Chee Hong, Eric Tan and Uncle Tiong about Minister Seetoh accompanying China's Minister of Manpower, Mr. Chen and his delegates will be visiting the department. As such they are to portray the company in the best light possible. All departments are briefed, but Tanya's arrogance leaves her crew unmotivated to prepare for the day.
Along with the technical faults in her department and the paperwork needed to fix it, Tanya's department has a huge clutter of unwanted junk in the office. In an effort to prepare for the VIP visit, they decide to put the junk outside temporarily. Knowing it still will remain an eyesore, Alan tells Tanya to conceal it some way, who in turn gets her crew to do so. Eventually Lim is left to handle the matter on his own. He manages to build a temporary wall, yet company incompetence in obtaing supplies leaves the wall completed half-heartedly with masking tapes used instead of nails.
On the day of the visit, all goes well with the Ministers. Finishing with a photoshoot, the group decides to stand in front of the wall, when it unfortunately gives way due pressure on the section which masking tapes was used. An investigation is carried out, and 'finger-pointing' is done to find the scapegoat, in which Lim is blamed. As a result, his bonus is cut, and Lim stems his anger toward Tanya. Their confrontation leads into a car chase in which he chases Tanya's 1998 Seat Toledo in his Citroën Berlingo until the vehicles collide, causing both to run off the flyover and fall down to the beach.
