The police did not state whether the men were foreign workers.
Photos posted on social media showed workers holding up signs printed in English and
Mandarin that said “Shanghai Chong Kee”, a construction firm in Singapore, and “pay back
the debt”.
They stood on the road in front of a stationary lorry with the contact number and address
of another construction firm, Zhengda Corporation, printed on it.
The police said they received a call for assistance at 1.50pm.
“Upon the police’s arrival, officers engaged the men to stop their
