#814: Pritam & WP Oppose Bill to Validate Decades of Fees & Recruiter Says S’poreans Not “Hungry”
Parliament retroactively validates fees collected by MND agencies without legal backing since independence. Chee Hong Tat can't provide the total amount. WP votes against a bill for the first time this term. Meanwhile, recruiter Lee Shulin tells CNA that firms are hiring "hungrier" foreigners over locals — TikTok erupts, she doubles down and says S'poreans will "thank her.”
