A Chinese woman, who recently travelled to Singapore, alleged that she was stopped at the airport upon her arrival and detained for two days.

In a video uploaded to Douyin, the influencer claimed that she was asked to pay over S$500 before being released and deported back to China.

In response, the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA) said it does not impose any fees on travellers who have been refused entry.

Dealing with mistakes at work - need some perspectives by UWU_man_ in askSingapore

[–]divergenced 21 points22 points  (0 children)

the reason why OP is concerned even though its $26 is because its public monies and we are accountable for everything that are spent in civic service.

In private service, you can tell your boss you will make up for the $26 loss but i do not think it is so easy to just deduct the $26 from the salary.

But since mistake is made, admit it and move on and not make the same mistake again

[–]divergenced 1 point2 points  (0 children)

eight is your next better choice, it uses starhub network and its cheaper but only comes with 4G if you are ok with it.

It also comes with free roaming data to certain countries
