The founder and director of New Zealand-themed restaurant Fern & Kiwi Bar and Eatery in Clarke Quay turned out to be an illegal worker.

Mr Shane Hausler was fined for working illegally and hiring foreigners without work visas when he opened his restaurant in Singapore last year.

Mr Hausler, who has since left Singapore, did not have an Entrepreneur Pass or EntrePass, introduced in 2004 to allow foreigners to start and run their businesses in Singapore.

This was not the first time the restaurant had got into trouble with the law here.

Three days before its official debut here on Sept 5 last year, staff from the restaurant had staged a flash-mob-style Haka -- the traditional Maori ancestral war cry and dance -- at Orchard Road without a proper public-entertainment licence from police.

He's here by courtesy of the PAP open door policy.He's an illegal foreign businessman,Ok entrepreneur more high class,and he was only fined.If he is an illegal foreign worker,he may be fined and caned for overstaying.Yeap,as usual, 2 sets of laws.

agree with you 100%. If this guy is older than the caning age limit ( i didnt read TNP ), then i guess cant cane ....otherwise his white butt should be rotaned just like any other butt for the offence that he committed.

In summary.

The Pap would open their doors to any white skin so willingly that even a hooker would not have done so with her legs.

He bring in money, created jobs for sinkies, maybe also give hope to SPG, he deserves some special treatment la tumbi.

hi there


1. oops!
2. that is for sure mah.
3. whites do have special privileges hoh:p

I'm sure there are plenty more of these cases around. Just because it invoves a whitey, it will be overlooked. MOM needs to clamp down on such cases especially the F&B, Gym/Fitness, IT businesses. These guys don't give a shit to SG's rules and regulations and they will set up a business as and WHAT they want. They may have created jobs (not necessarily for SGs) but they tend to disappear when trouble looms.....

Yeah. Especially the football match-fixing jobs.

How could this happen? ICA and the cops are not doing their job or asked to close an eye. But the pressure of late from sinkees is forcing them to do some high profile case for wayang sake. This is one of them.

Wow, using your logic, sinkapore will have a billion in population in no time.

What makes you think MOM is interested in clamping down? For every 1 reported case, X number go unreported, go undiscovered.

MOM should be interested because they are missing out on all the $$$ in wokers levies

 

[erection2015]

You seems to be in ass mode today. Maybe white meat have their prostates to thanks for :p

In the larger scheme of things, i.e., the bigger picture and if you do not know what that is, nevermind) the levies amount to chump change. If MOM had any interest in clamping down on illegal foreign workers it would have recruited an army of people for its enforcement unit.

Wow. How did he manage to register the business then, especially with such public stunt to promote it's opening? Doesn't ACRA check as well? Is the place still open?

foreigners can register businesses without holding a work pass as long as they put in a local SG name. This kind of case, the local most likely SPG. hope she is preggies now.....

Since when have they ever done their job? Remember Mas Selamat? The hit-and-run Romanian diplomat? Huang Na's murderer? Suntec's Ang Mo banker brawlers who jumped bail?

Those idiots at the ICA are more concerned with smuggled cigarettes, porn, pirated DVD and chewing gum.

Register a business without a work pass? Well done and congratulations you PAP fucktards. I hope the 'pro-business' thingy is working for you.
