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.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
