I learnt that Migrant workers are not even paid at least 1000 dollars for their salaries which is very low.

I felt sad and angry for the migrant workers and how they have been living hard lives when they came to Singapore for better job opportunities only to get such pitiful salaries.

I can be kind to migrant workers and learn not to judge them as they are going through tough times and are struggling to live in Singapore.

I learned that migrant workers are seen as people who would do criminal things like shoplift, which led to measures like the zip tying of bags before entering a shopping mall. They are also severely unpaid, grossing a salary of only 500-600 dollars despite years of risky work. Additionally, I learned that there is a need for free healthcare centers due to how underpaid the workers are.
To think of and treat migrant workers like average human beings.

Dion

dion_poh_xiang_qin — 2024-03-25 06:10:12 UTC

3 things I learned:
1. The government has taken action and implemented some facilities for the migrant workers who require them.
2. Many of the places that migrant workers would go also tend to make stereotypes towards them, such as stealing in Mustafa Centre and drunk riots.
3. Migrant workers get free checkups and meals at specific places set up by the government due to their low paying jobs.

2 emotions I felt:
1. I was relieved that at least the government has taken action to provide the migrant workers with some form of help to take some work off their backs.
2. I was a little dissatisfied that even though some places were mainly for the migrant workers to hang out at, there are still unnecessary restrictions for them out of distrust and stereotypes.

1 action I can take:
1. The easiest thing to do is to learn to be grateful and thank the migrant workers when I see them around and maybe provide them with simple snacks and drinks when I see them around to show my gratitude towards their hard work for long hours just for us, the other citizens, to have places to stay and facilities to use.

3. I learnt about the security measure in Mustafa Centre where it is required that you bad has to be zip tied to prevent theft. This is because of a stereotype where migrant workers are more likely to steal other’s belongings. I also learnt that at Mustafa Centre, the price for necessities are cheaper than the usual price. This could be because of the low salary that migrant workers are paid which helps make these products more affordable for them.
