Singapore police stood watch at a workers' dormitory as bus drivers from SMRT Corp. (MRT) skipped work for a second day after a wage dispute, in a rare public display of labor discord in the island nation.
Five police vehicles and at least six policemen were seen outside the workers' dormitory in Singapore's Woodlands area, in the island's north. No arrests have been made, a police spokesman said by phone, after the Today newspaper reported earlier in the day the drivers would be detained. Reporters weren't allowed to enter the dormitory to speak to the drivers. Full story
