SINGAPORE - Several business chambers are concerned about the message being sent by the new requirement for dependant's pass holders to obtain a formal work pass in order to work in Singapore.
They said many such foreigners have skills and experience that can contribute to the economy here, and the more restrictive rule may make it more difficult for companies to relocate staff or senior executives with families.
