More than 100 migrant workers turned up at the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) on June 22, claiming they had not received at least two months of wages from air-conditioning maintenance company KPA Engineering or its related firm, SK industries. The number of claimants has since grown to 400.

Employees of VVR Plant Engineering also filed claims, identifying Indian national Ramu Palani Velu as the common director across all three firms. MWC members will receive $100 cash and $100 in FairPrice vouchers for immediate relief.
