TTSH staff are allegedly being told to move out of their homes on short notice by their landlords, as well as being shunned by Grab and Taxi Drivers who refuse to pick them up after work.
The question was posed by Jurong GRC MP Tan Wu Meng, who asked what was being done to alleviate the discrimination that the healthcare workers are facing.
Gan highlighted that this was a “worrisome trend” that shouldn’t be condoned.
He also urged people to stand behind our healthcare workers from TTSH and support them.
