thats discrimination on work salary!!!

what discimination you talking about?

foreigners need to pay levy, and also accomodation and other costs
they also have a higher risk of running away

not only that, when they convert to their own currency back home, their purchasing power is greater than singaporeans..

so who is being disrcrminated at the end?

$1300 a month is not a lot of money.

Divide it by 30 days, you are actually being paid around $43 a day.

Divide that by 8 hours, you are getting around $5 an hour.
