The info is quite reliable.
Ok this company actually sells foodstuff in Chinatown. However, the towkay is making big bucks on the side by "selling" work passes to PRC MMs wanting to work here. From what I heard, S-passes are involved and he has got 14 PRC MMs using his company quota to apply for work passes here.
The deal is this, the PRC MM will first pay S$10,000 for the company to sponsor him for the work pass. I presumed that for S-pass, the company is declaring $1,800 as the salary for the PRC MM. Every month, the PRC MM will go back to office in Chinatown to sign off saying that they have received the salary (of course they don't receive anything lah). Also, every month, they will have to pay $500 fee to the company cause the company need to pay levy to MOM (but levy is a lot less than the $500 lah). Hence, in a way, the company/towkay is getting a recurrent stream of income from these PRC MMs for using their quota to get work passes. Anyone who doesn't pay up will get her pass cancelled. My reservist friend told me that the company is giving a lot of fancy titles to the PRC MM, like sales manager etc. Most are recruited as "sales" people to do sales outside of the company.
Of course lah, these PRC MMs are actually selling themselves outside lah. They are all told that if they are caught (say, in KTVs), they must keep their mouths shut and call the company. The company will then immediately go with the lawyer to bill them out the next day, giving the reason that the PRC MM, as a sales person, is entertaining customers. Then after the PRC MM is out, they will immediately ship them out of Singapore, leaving no witness.
Apparently, this has been going on for quite awhile already and some girls were caught and sent back. On thing I'm not sure is that how cum our police so stupid to continue let this kind of company run their illegal operation like that...
