Daily briefing: Group slams use of phrase "illegal strike"

MOM however called the group’s accusations ‘baseless’.

Yahoo reported, “The group had said the four bus drivers from mainland China being charged in court ‘were clearly doomed from the start’ when acting minister for manpower Tan Chuan-Jin used the term ‘illegal strike’ to describe the mass labour protest of over 180 SMRT bus drivers in the ministry’s first press conference.” See the story here.

Meanwhile, in relation to the recent strike, dormitory operators clarified that the cleanliness of living spaces in rented dormitories are maintained not by the landlords but by the tenants. Find out more here.

In other news, a new recreation centre for migrant workers which will be operationally ready early next year has been opened in Penjuru. Watch the video here.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
