@channelnewsasia From Jan 1, 2027, companies in Singapore will no longer be allowed to transport workers in caged lorries. Caged decks pose extra safety risks, especially if doors are locked from the outside and an accident or fire happens, said Senior Minister of State for Transport Sun Xueling in parliament on Mar 4. #singapore #sgnews ♬ original sound - CNA
