Land Transport Authority says it does not condone such behaviour, as social media users criticise a lack of respect for foreign workers in Singapore
In a 57-second clip uploaded on Facebook group Complaint Singapore, a man is seen berating a migrant worker about not buckling his seat belt. The man then hits the worker on his helmet with the latter’s driving licence while pointing it at him and grilling him about what he learned at driving school. He later slams the licence on the ground.
The worker, who has his hands behind his back, mumbles “sorry” and lowers his eyes while the engineer is heard saying: “What did the school teach you, first day [sic], tell me! What did the school teach you? No need to buckle, is it?”
