The authorities have decided not to extend the special pass of Bangladeshi migrant worker Md Sharif Uddin despite an appeal made by a resident from Prime Minister Lawrence Wong’s constituency.

On the morning of May 31, Mr Sharif shared about his departure on Facebook, with pictures of him and his friends at the airport. Explaining why they decided not to grant the appeal, ICA and MOM said Mr Sharif had been given sufficient time since the termination of his work permit on April 11 to seek employment under the Temporary Job Scheme . This was while police investigations into the unlicensed moneylender harassment reports were ongoing.

“We understand that Mr Sharif had turned down job offers including working as a packer and a hotel cleaner. As police investigations into the case have concluded, and Mr Sharif has not found new employment, he has to leave Singapore,” the authorities said. “I have been hurt very badly by all the disappointments I have faced these last few months,” he said.
