This is our reply to Mr Lim after the incident. While it may seem that Mr Lim offered us the benefit of the doubt , his actions seems quite the opposite and reeks of journalistic sensationalism

On the 18th of September,12.45pm, PARK Cafe at Holland Village officially became from our personal favorite to probably the most discriminative Cafe of the hour in all of Singapore.

This horrid carousell seller kaiserklose explicitly refuses to sell stuff to Pinoys. What the hell is wrong with him? Why are Singaporeans so prejudiced against Pinoys? This discrimination is atrocious and makes me feel like a third class resident.

A friend of mine attended a WSQ course on effective communication and was appalled by the atrocious course material. WSQ courses are government approved courses to help individuals improve their employability.

Hello there, i would like to share my unfortunate experience with Shiseido (Isetan Westgate) today. I wanted to get a cream as i have a dark spot on my right cheek. So i asked the staff nicely to see if there is a suitable item for me.

I was discriminated because I was wearing a hijab, I like to share my unfortunate experience with you. I went for an interview today at one of the modern montessori preschool in Kovan and my interview went well until my interviewer Mdm Sheela, Director of MMI told me.. "Since you are wearing the hijab if you start working here you have to wear a bandanna to cover your just your hair...Because we have many incidents where chinese parents are afraid to handover their kids to a staff who is wearing hijab. kids get scared too."

To clarify, 6 employees out of 9 are Muslim and 3 wearing the hijab. Our food is cooked by a Muslim wearing a hijab, our food is halal. We have Muslims, Indians and Chinese working here with different religions as well. The person who came for the interview and complained on this matter left a job after 1 month and another with a child care centre after 3 months and reason being ,she cant take the children’s noise.

Sometimes I wonder if it is good for Malays to take job hiring issues into the public because while they might get that company into the negative spotlight but the end consequences are it might cause a lot more bosses/companies out there to view the Malay Muslim community who use religious issues as a threat to force them to hire them and over time this might cause people to view Muslim people as too troublesome to hire. I write because I am worried for you and I don't know whether taking this course of action will end up helping the Malay community or harming themselves instead.

”Oh, your mom wears the hijab right? I don’t want this place to have muslim people , later they will think this is a Muslim student care and that won’t look good for our centre.” And she mentioned after that, that they’re finding for a Chinese teacher. Racist. Racist. Racist. The centre name is OUT OF THE BOX KID’S CLUB.

Our reader has sent us his request for help after enduring countless rejections from employers who do not wish to hire him because he did not complete his National Service (NS). Is anyone out there willing to help him?
