More protests to come?

6th December 2012

Another protest over wages. So . . . more protests to come? 

The two workers from China, who sat for hours on top of two cranes at a construction site in Jurong Port Road, have been escorted down by Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) officers on Thursday. The first worker climbed down at about 2pm while the second man came down the 10-storey-high crane at about 3:30pm. They were led away by police. Both the workers are believed to be protesting over a wage dispute.
Police said they were alerted about the incident at about 6.35am at 31 Jurong Port Road. 
Officials from the Ministry of Manpower were also at the scene.
