Businesswoman dies after alleging workplace injury scam in final Facebook post​

Photos of Jane Lee's obituary surfaced days after her Facebook post.

A small business owner has died a day after publishing a pair of Facebook posts alleging that she was the target of a workplace injury scam.

In her posts on July 18, Jane Lee accused a former employee and the woman's husband of deliberately staging a fall just before her employment contract ended.

Lee, who owned Sumo Salad in Holland Village, said that this was an attempt by the couple to file a false work injury claim.


The mother of two also claimed that the couple had used similar tactics before, possibly with the help of a legal firm that, she alleged, advised foreign workers on how to exploit injury claims for compensation.

Lee added that she had video footage contradicting the employee's claims and had observed the woman walking and carrying out daily tasks with ease, only to exaggerate her condition in front of medical professionals.

"Unfortunately, this appears not to be her first attempt," Lee wrote. "Based on my observations and information I've gathered, I believe this was a carefully orchestrated scheme."


She warned that such tactics were used to target small businesses, especially those with incomplete insurance coverage. If insured, she claimed, the alleged scammers would aim for higher payouts by fabricating more serious injuries.

"I feel extremely unfortunate to have encountered this situation… because of an unfortunate gap in our insurance coverage, we are now being targeted by what I believe to be a fraudulent scheme," she wrote.

'I couldn't find the strength to face this battle on my own'​

In a second post addressed to the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) and the Singapore Police Force (SPF), Lee urged authorities to investigate the matter, warning that other small business owners might face similar ordeals.

"To my beloved family and children, I'm truly sorry that I couldn't find the strength to face this battle on my own," she wrote in closing.

Jane also thanked her staff, listing several long-time employees by name and informing them she had transferred funds to them as a gesture of gratitude. She named individuals who had worked with her for more than a decade, describing their loyalty and support as deeply meaningful.

When The New Paper visited the wake on July 21, it was a quiet, private affair and mourners declined to speak with TNP.

Tributes poured in on social media, where Lee's posts had begun to circulate. One commenter, who had faced a similar legal battle, wrote: "Every single day felt like a struggle to survive. It hurts deeply that you chose to leave this world. Maybe this was your way of voicing the injustice done to you… You mattered. You still do."

Another added: "I know this tactic. It's common in some industries. They fake injuries to stay longer in Singapore or to get compensation. I hope MOM and SPF really look into it."

Manpower Ministry responds, says it is looking into the case​

In a statement issued at about 8.30pm on July 21, MOM said it has been looking into the alleged fraudulent work injury claim made by a worker employed by EatGreen Pte. Ltd, which operates Sumo Salad.

"We were in communication with Ms Lee and investigations are ongoing. The worker involved was covered under Work Injury Compensation (WIC) Act, and MOM is working with the insurer to assess the validity of the case."

It added that it will not hesitate to take action against any parties found guilty of abusing the WIC system, and extended its deepest condolences to Ms Lee's family during this difficult time.

According to CNA, SPF said investigations into Lee's unnatural death are ongoing.

Indian flag displayed next to S'pore flag at Sengkang condo​

An Indian flag was spotted next to a Singapore national flag at a condominium in Sengkang during the National Day period.

Stomper Ainy shared a photo of the two flags hung side by side over the balcony railing on high floor at The Topiary condo at Fernvale Lane on Aug 15.

She said on Aug 21 that the Indian flag had been removed.


"My feeling on this is simple: THIS IS SINGAPORE. Period," declared the Stomper.

According to the Singapore Statutes, the National Emblems (Control of Display) Act states that displaying any flag or national emblem that is not of Singapore in public is considered an offence. An emblem is considered as being displayed in public when it is visible to members of the public.

If convicted of the offence, the person could face a fine of up to $500 and/or a jail term of up to six months.

Exceptions to the Act include diplomatic representatives of a foreign power to Singapore, where authorisation has been granted by the government, and on ships and aircraft.

In a similar incident, a flag of the People's Republic of China was displayed next to a Singapore flag at a condominium construction site in One-North in July.

A spokesperson for the developer told Stomp: "Upon thorough internal review, we found that a staff member of our contractor, in a well-intentioned gesture to celebrate Singapore's 60th National Day and the 35th anniversary of diplomatic relations between China and Singapore, temporarily displayed the flags of both China and Singapore at the worksite.

"Upon discovery, the contractor proactively replaced all flags with Singapore's national flag several days prior to the publication of your report on Aug 3, ensuring full compliance with local regulations."

India shifted its stance when the US withdrew its support, and subsequently aligned itself with China. During a visit by Chinese FM Wang Yi to India, the two nations reached an agreement on key items related to trade and remain open for border disputes discussion. Minister Wang Yi's trip was unexpectedly cut short by two days.

Arose out of a dog-eat-dog society, and every-man-for-himself mentality.

Gave rise to corruption. Make hay while the sun shines, pilfer as much money as one can.
Is it any wonder that India has one of the most corrupt political and economic systems in the world?
This, in spite of the good influence of the British colonists and the introduction of the English law.

No community spirit. No societal obligations.

The team behind Temasek’s recent performance​

In GIC, S'pore Inc, Temasek on 27/08/2025 at 4:14 am
Reminder


Not much better than the more conservatively run GIC.

So now kanna restructuring. Teo Chee Hean (next chairman, now deputy chairman) is going to kick ass?

One reason for bad performance: Placed big bets on private capital

Private equity fundraising slides as sector’s downturn deepens
Firms are struggling to raise money even as they offer discounts to attract new investors

Recent FT headline

Another reason: Were bulls on China. Reduced exposure belatedly after Americans cut and ran.

Third reason? Almost All India team. Deputy CEO is true blue S’porean: ethnic Chinese. The CEO is an ethnic Indian from M’sia, albeit now new citizen.


Seriously, I’m surprised. This almost All Indians’ team kept investing in China. They continued despite China losing its favoured haven status a few years ago.

SG government did not check its Ministers and their families thoroughly.


Singapore has revoked the citizenship of Monisha Catherine Iswaran, effective 19 August 2025. The Immigration & Checkpoints Authority has not confirmed her identity, though the name closely matches that of former minister S. Iswaran’s daughter.

Published on 25 August 2025
By The Online Citizen

The Government of Singapore has officially announced the deprivation of citizenship of Monisha Catherine Iswaran under Article 135(1)(b) of the Constitution.

The notice, published in the Government Gazette (No. 3557) on 20 August 2025, states that the decision took effect on 19 August 2025.

No further details were provided in the publication regarding the reasons for the deprivation beyond citing the constitutional clause.

Under Article 135(1)(b) of the Constitution, a citizen may be deprived of citizenship if they have, while aged 18 or over and after 6 April 1960, applied for or used a foreign passport.

This suggests the grounds for action were likely related to Monisha Iswaran’s use or application for a foreign passport, though the specific circumstances remain unconfirmed.

The Online Citizen submitted a formal query to the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) last week, requesting clarification — including whether Monisha Catherine Iswaran is related to, or is the daughter of, former People’s Action Party Minister S. Iswaran.

The name is notably similar to that of the former minister’s daughter, raising questions among members of the public.

As of publication, ICA has not responded to the queries.

Neither has Monisha Catherine Iswaran made any public statement regarding the matter, including on her LinkedIn page, where she has remained inactive since the notice was published.

The notice’s timing has also attracted public attention due to its proximity to the conclusion of criminal proceedings involving key figures in a recent corruption case.

On 15 August 2025, billionaire Ong Beng Seng was sentenced to a S$30,000 fine for abetting the obstruction of justice in a case linked to former Transport Minister S. Iswaran.

Ong admitted to belatedly invoicing Iswaran for a S$5,700 business class flight from Doha to Singapore, months after the Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau (CPIB) uncovered the travel manifest in May 2023.

The late invoicing was found to have diminished the likelihood of detection.

Due to advanced multiple myeloma and severe medical complications, the court exercised judicial mercy, imposing a maximum fine in lieu of a custodial sentence.

The sentencing came nearly two months after S. Iswaran himself was released from home detention.

He had been sentenced to 12 months’ imprisonment on 3 October 2024 for receiving gifts from Ong, including flights and hotel stays. He was released on 6 June 2025.

The last similar notice under Article 135(1)(b) was published on 25 October 2024. Such announcements are relatively rare and typically appear without elaboration in the Government Gazette.

Singapore maintains a firm policy against dual citizenship.

The use or application for foreign travel documents by a Singaporean adult is treated as grounds for forfeiting citizenship, as prescribed in Article 135 of the Constitution.

As of this report, no public information is available on whether the individual named, “Monisha Catherine Iswaran”, has contested the revocation or sought any form of legal redress.
