After delivering 5,000 masks and some crackers to the migrant workers living at Westlite Woodland dormitory yesterday (14 April), activist Gilbert Goh proceeded to distribute meals to migrant workers, poor families and Malaysian workers.
He shared it on his Facebook account, explaining that he collaborated with celebrity chef, KF Seetoh, to cook up a feast to feed 300 people.
Mr Goh stated that he and his team of volunteers distributed 150 meals to migrant workers at Westlite Woodland Dormitory. Other than migrant workers, Mr Goh had also contributed to the poor families at Ang Mo Kio and Woodlands, as well as the Malaysian workers who are housed in the Woodlands flats.

“Together with celebrity chef Kf Seetoh, we distributed 300 meals to the migrant workers at Westlite Woodland dormitory (150), poor families at AMK (80) and Woodlands (20) and 50 more meals for our Malaysian workers housed in the Woodlands flats,” wrote Mr Goh.

Seeing how the Circuit Breaker is in effect, Mr Goh assured everyone that he and his team always practised safe distancing measures so they would not breach the Circuit Breaker regulations.
He had also complimented how efficient the volunteer drivers were as they carried out the meal distribution.

Mr Seetoh had also shared his experience of contributing to the communities in collaboration with Mr Goh and others. He mentioned that they will plan for more contributions in the future and even after the COVID-19 storm calms down.

Here are a few photos of the people who received generous help from Mr Goh and Mr Seetoh:

人力部再调高聘外籍专才薪资门槛

人力部长杨莉明今日(3日)在国会表示,从今年5月起,在就业准证(EP)下聘请外籍专才的薪资门槛,将由此前的3600新元调涨至3900元。当一次调高就业准证底薪,是2017年。 杨莉明称政府定期更新就业准证薪资准则,确保外籍专才素质,而不是让雇主因为他们薪资低而聘请他们。 “这是确保本地职涯中期(mid-career)的PMET专才,能在平等的平台上竞争。” 对于年长或有资历的就业准证求职者,聘雇薪资门槛也调高,例如40岁出头者薪资需至少是3900元的两倍。 此前,工人党阿裕尼集选区国会议员林瑞莲,曾敦促政府协助中期职涯雇员,应考量提升技能、收入保障等方案,因为一些被裁职员可能因为职能不匹配、甚至要花好几个月才找到新工作。 另一方面,在今日的国会拨款委会人力部预算辩论,杨莉明也表示政府将根据市场薪资走势,定期检讨最低薪金门槛。例如去年7月就把薪金门槛从1200元上调至1300元。 政府将在今年7月,再把本地雇员薪资门槛调至1400元。 今年初,杨莉明称在新近更新的公平考量框架(FCF)下,若有雇主在雇佣雇员时未公平考量或歧视本地雇主,将面对更严重惩处。 公平考量框架下,要求雇主为那些月薪1万5000元以下的工作,须在职业库(Jobs Bank)刊登求职广告,为期两周。 自雇人士保健储蓄一对一填补 对于自雇人士,若参与边赚边缴”计划,则可获得“一元对一元”保健储蓄户头填补,每年填补顶限为600元。…

【选举】守阿裕尼、后港 工人党料再攻打三选区

新加坡工人党预计在来届选举,捍卫现有堡垒区阿裕尼集选区和后港单选区,与此同时可能派将强攻东海岸、马林百列和来届选举新增选区盛港。 由于工人党非选区议员陈立峰,长期尾随现任议员方荣发频密走访后港单选区,预料该党将委派前者负责守土,但未知是否方荣发将移师他处。 据知,工人党成员和志工也积极走访勿洛蓄水池、榜鹅、实龙岗、巴耶利峇和盛港安谷(Anchorvale )等地区。 不过,有别于上届选举,此次工人党相信将竞逐较少的选区。除了致力保住阿裕尼和后港,以及上述三个选区之外,相信不会再攻打义顺、惹兰勿刹和麦波申等选区。 上届选举工人党也有不错战绩的凤山、盛港西和榜鹅东单选区,则在新选区划分下被取消。上届选举该党至少派出28候选人,大举进攻10个选区。
