SINGAPORE - Check-in operations for most airlines at Changi Airport that were hit by a global technology outage on July 19 have returned to normal, though snaking queues were still seen at AirAsia’s counters. In a Facebook update on the morning of July 20, operator Changi Airport Group (CAG) said a “small number” of airlines still need check-ins to be done manually. CAG added: “Changi Airport is supporting these airlines with additional resources. For passengers affected, we seek your patience and understanding.” AirAsia’s services are among those disrupted. The Straits Times saw long queues at the budget carrier’s counters at Changi Airport Terminal 4 on the morning of July 20, as check-ins had to be handled manually. Airlines were among the hardest hit by the tech outage, which is believed to be caused by a flawed software update issued by cyber-security service provider CrowdStrike. The US firm serves tens of thousands of enterprises globally, including banks, offices and hospitals.
A domestic worker was sentenced to one year in jail on Thursday (July 18) for stealing more than $28,000 from her elderly employee with dementia. Indonesian national Sriatun, 45, had pleaded guilty to one charge of theft as a servant, The Straits Times reported. Another charge of theft, for stealing her employer's ATM card, was taken into consideration during sentencing. The court heard that Sriatun, who goes by one name, had been working for the employer for two years. After learning about his POSB bank account's ATM personal identification number, Sriatun stole his card 19 times and made 36 withdrawals between Jan 14 and Sept 24 last year. She would return the card to her employer to avoid detection. But in November 2023, the man's son saw a letter of demand from the town council on outstanding service and conservancy charges. He suspected something was amiss since the payments were usually made through Giro. He lodged a police report after seeing the multiple cash withdrawals. Sriatun allegedly remitted $11,000 to her family in Indonesia and spent the remaining $17,050 on personal expenses.

The team has been training intensively in recent weeks as it prepares to seek a qualification spot in the CAF Beach Soccer Africa Cup of Nations 2024 (AFCON) and head coach Herald Kowlessur said that the team is looking for a win. «We have played against Mozambique before and the results were not good, but we are hoping that this is not the case again and we want to come out and play to get a win,» said Kowlessur. The head coach is asking supporters to come and help the players in an attempt to get a victory. The match will take place at 6 p.m. at the Beach Soccer Arena in the central district of Roche Caiman. The second leg will take place in Mozambique a week later. The team is currently in a training camp with full time preparations and the coach says everything is going well and the players are in good form ahead of Saturday's game. Earlier this week, the team was briefed by a referee of the Confederation of African Football (CAF) and coach Kowlessur explained that this was to ensure the players stay updated with the ever-changing rules of the game. «We brought the referee to share his experience and let the players know what they can expect from the referees in this match,» said Kowlessur. Seychelles will be captained by Mike Balette, who shared that the team is a mix of young and experienced players and feels they have enough about them to get a good result. «We are taking this match seriously, especially as we are playing in front of our fans and we have prepared well and will be looking for a good match,» said Balette.
