SINGAPORE — The authorities are revoking the work pass of a Malaysian who was involved in both illegal gatherings over Malaysia’s election results at the Merlion Park on Wednesday and Saturday last week.

Out of the 21 Malaysians who participated in last Saturday’s gathering, the visit passes of two others have also been cancelled, the police said in a statement late last night.

“As for the remaining 18 persons, their work passes will be reviewed upon completion of further investigations,” it added.

The police will also be issuing “stern conditional warnings” to all those who participated in last Saturday’s gathering.

“Their employers will be informed of this. This follows the conditional warnings issued to nine persons who took part in the illegal gathering at the same location on May 8,” it said.

The police reiterated that Singapore “does not take sides in the politics of other countries, and will work with whoever forms the government there”.

“Foreigners living or working in Singapore must abide by Singapore laws, and should not import the issues or politics of their countries of origin to Singapore,” it said.

“This is a long-standing principle which has helped maintain harmony and public order in Singapore, as well as good relations with other countries.”
