Meanwhile, Singapore's Police Licensing and Regulatory Department has suspended liquor licences at the Little India cluster and its surrounding areas this weekend, from 6am on December 14 to 5.59am on December 16.
A Channel News Asia report said the suspension came in the wake of a riot involving some 400 people which took place at Little India on December 8 (Sunday night). Police said the suspension would help to stabilise the situation.
Last evening, Singapore's Law and Foreign Minister K Shanmugam has assured foreign workers that nothing will happen to them as long as they abide by the law. He spoke with some 40 foreign workers during his visit to the Kranji Lodge 1.
Foreign workers in Singapore who have done nothing wrong have nothing to fear, the Minister added.
He said many workers were now understandably worried about the long-term repercussions of the incident and its impact on their employment contracts.
