Another example of how Singapore treat low pay foreign workers:
So in a car, you're supposed to wear your seat belt, right? It's normally a traffic offence, but not if you're transporting construction workers at the back of a truck[1]. It's perfectly fine to make them live in a room with 12 other workers, with limited toilet and kitchen capacity. It's fine to ignore them when COVID-19 hit, until it's no longer possible to do so[2]. Singapore is built by the workers, and they're considered disposable by the system.
