Episode Details

Platform workers met NTUC chief Ng Chee Meng to raise frustrations over unclear fares, illegal foreign riders, and the future of gig work. At the same time, enforcement agencies clamped down on foreigners doing delivery work illegally. We also discuss Desmond Choo’s eyebrow-raising call for Safra to evolve from a social club into a “defence movement.”
