A Father’s Devotion

Biswas is a devoted father of two sets of twin boys, a loving husband, and the sole provider for his family. For over a decade, he has worked tirelessly to create a better life for his loved ones. Since 2013, Biswas has proven his reliability by completing multiple work contracts, despite having paid an overwhelming $21,000 in agent fees to secure these job opportunities. No matter the sacrifice, he has always faced his responsibilities with resilience.

An Unfair Turn of Events

In October 2024, Biswas’ world was upended by an unfair decision.

Biswas had been attending routine medical check-ups. During his October visit, he was feeling unwell and was prescribed two days of medical leave. However, when he returned to work, he was called into his employer’s office and delivered devastating news.
Instead of compassion, his employer cancelled his work permit without warning. Overnight, Biswas found himself stranded on a Special Pass.

What a Special Pass Means

With a Special Pass, Biswas is legally barred from working. His request to transfer to a new employer was denied, leaving him with no way to earn an income. Now, with no job and no money, he worries endlessly about how his wife, elderly mother, and four young children will survive without his support.
“I never ask doctor give me MC. And now I no job, no money,” Biswas lamented, his voice filled with frustration and despair.

Waiting in Limbo

Biswas is awaiting an investigation by the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) to recover his last month’s salary and explore potential compensation. But waiting doesn’t put food on the table or cover the cost of his rent and daily necessities as he remains in Singapore.

Why Biswas Deserves Your Help

Biswas is not sickly, lazy, or ungrateful—he is a hard-working father who dreams of nothing more than providing for his family. What happened to him is unjust, and his determination to persevere through this crisis speaks to his strength.
