We still need electricity ourselves."    He later softened his tone to local media:   "Exports could happen — only if prices meet Indonesia's requirements. If the price isn't right, we can't do it."    He also instructed Indonesia's investment agency Danantara: "Don't let yourself be lobbied" into accepting lower prices    🔌 Background: The Plan   - Singapore planned to import up to ~3.4 GW of low-carbon electricity from Indonesia — solar/wind from Batam, Bintan and Karimun — via subsea power cables  - Singapore's broader goal: import 6 GW of clean electricity by 2035 to reach net zero by 2050  - Singapore has also lined up imports from Australia, Malaysia, Vietnam and Cambodia    ⚠️ Key Implications   - Jeopardises the Indonesia–Singapore clean power deal, one of Singapore's largest renewable import sources - Could also slow the ASEAN Power Grid vision — connecting ~700 million people across the region  - Recent bilateral strains: Ties have been tense over transboundary haze and Indonesia's decision to reduce gas exports to Singapore  - Singapore's Energy Market Authority has not yet commented   

The Ministry of Manpower (MOM) conducted a 15-hour enforcement operation against a construction company suspected of using local phantom workers to inflate its migrant worker quota.   Six of those assisting in investigations are suspected phantom workers.   👉️️️️️️ https://tsl.to/momphantomworkers   Full Details: MOM Operation Against Construction Firm Over Phantom Workers   📌 Key Facts   - Announced: Sunday, 1 November 2026 (MOM Facebook post) - Reported: Tuesday, 3 November 2026, 12:14 pm - Target: A Singapore construction company - Operation duration: 15-hour enforcement blitz   👥 Who Was Involved   - 2 individuals arrested — suspected masterminds/executives - 10 others assisting investigations - 6 suspected phantom workers among them - Company executives summoned for further questioning   🕵️ What Happened   - The company allegedly recruited locals as "phantom workers" — people listed as employees but who did no actual work - One executive told investigators he was "promised a salary and CPF contributions" to recruit these locals - By falsely inflating its local headcount via fake CPF contributions, the company tried to secure a higher migrant worker quota - MOM officers examined company records during the operation - Investigations are ongoing   ⚠️ What Are Phantom Workers?   Singaporeans or PRs whose names are on a company's CPF records but who do not actually work there. Since foreign worker quota is calculated based on local employee numbers, fake locals = inflated quota = more migrant workers allowed   ⚖️ Penalties   - Employers: Up to S$20,000 fine, 2 years' imprisonment, or both - Individuals who lend their details: May be prosecuted for abetting false declarations — same maximum penalties - Work pass fraud is a serious offence under the Employment of Foreign Manpower Act - Convicted entities may also be barred from hiring foreign workers in future    📢 MOM's Warning   - Stepping up investigations into suspected cases - Will take firm enforcement action against errant employers and individuals - Reminded the public: don't let anyone use your personal details for fake employment or CPF declarations
