S'pore company surprises migrant worker by flying his wife & children to S'pore, had not met in 4 years
The company sponsored their flight, accommodation and expenses for a 4-day, 3-night stay.
At a company-sponsored dinner and dance event, a Singapore-based mechanical crane worker named Russel Jagathesh was given an unexpected and heartwarming surprise. Jagathesh, 47, had not seen his wife and two children from India in four years. As part of the company's annual lucky draw, he was selected to receive a prize on stage.
However, his company had quietly arranged for Jagathesh's family to fly out to Singapore, arriving just as he stepped up to collect his reward. The emcee instructed him to close his eyes and turn around, revealing his family on stage as he opened his eyes. Jagathesh, who had been with the company for 14 years, expressed his disbelief and said that being reunited with his family was the most valuable aspect of the prize, surpassing even the cash reward.
The company sponsored the family's travel expenses, accommodation, and provided a four-day, three-night stay, as well as additional allowances for activities like visiting popular Singapore attractions. While other employees received cash prizes, Pollisum allocated a total of S$150,000 for cash rewards to approximately 400 employees, with individual winners ranging from S$13,810 to the first-prize winner who received S$13,810 for completing a cash-counting challenge.
