S'pore police conducts enforcement on Chinatown foodcourt dubbed 'haven of female companionship', 4 women arrested
Shopkeepers claimed that the atmosphere of the area has improved greatly.
The Singapore police conducted an enforcement operation at a Chinatown food court, which had gained notoriety as a "haven of female companionship". Four women, aged between 33 and 48, were arrested for working without valid work passes under the Employment of Foreign Manpower Act. Following media attention, the men and their companions left the premises, and the food court became notably empty.
A shopkeeper reported seeing an older man inviting younger women to the food court, but they reportedly refused out of fear of law enforcement. Now, the women avoid dining at the food court due to concerns about being targeted by authorities.
