Taiwanese merman performer claims Singapore bar owes him 3 months' wages
#1

He had raised the issue with the bar manager and owner several times, but was reportedly told that the establishment was facing financial difficulties.

In the hope of recovering the unpaid wages, Wu continued working at the bar.

A former employee also told Shin Min that The Mermaid owes him around $4,000 in unpaid wages and claimed that several employees are owed at least a month's wage.

"But the owner has been making an effort to find funds to pay the owed wages. Most of us understand that he has no choice as the business has been making a loss," said the employee.

The former employee told Shin Min that the bar owner had learnt of the cancellation of the performers' work permits in mid-March and quickly paid the outstanding levies to reinstate the permits.

Wu's work permit was reinstated on April 19, and the three performers are now back in Taiwan as their six-month contract with the bar is over.
