SINGAPORE – A man ran a series of renovation and rental scams, cheating almost 70 people of about $78,000 which he then used for personal expenses like a hotel stay and alcohol. Tan Kai Wen, 24, had been arrested and released on bail three times, but kept scamming victims until he was finally kept in remand. On June 11, he was jailed for 28 months after he pleaded guilty to four cheating charges. Another eight cheating charges were taken into consideration for sentencing. The court heard that he has used up all the money he cheated people of and has made no restitution. Tan, a Malaysian, was previously working as a salesman at a renovation company here in late 2021. He was facing financial difficulties at the time, and came up with a plan to cheat clients by having them make payments to his bank account instead of the company’s, for tabletops and other renovation work. Tan began cheating clients from November 2021, getting four of them to transfer more than $11,000 in total to him. The ruse involved excuses such as the company’s account being closed on Saturdays and that he was able to offer discounts.
Are Chinese restaurants charging more for tea these days? According to Lemon8 user Lemonade8870, that appears to be the case. «I have been dining at many Chinese restaurants… and have noticed that the charge for Chinese tea has gone up recently — to unreasonable prices, say about $4 to $5 per person,» she wrote in a post on Sunday (June 9). However, the price of $7 a person seems to be the last straw for her. «But I got a shock last night after I dined at Kai Garden in Marina Square — each person was charged $7.20 for Chinese tea,» she continued. She added that the price was for free flow of the beverage, but that much is to be expected at Chinese restaurants. Describing the pricing as «atrocious», she said: «Just want to alert everyone so you know the amount they charge!» She had dined at the restaurant the evening before, ordering a spread of kurobuta pork, braised vermicelli and mushrooms. For drinks, she got ju pu tea, which cost $21.60 in total for three persons. Ju pu tea is a mix of pu'er and chrysanthemum tea.

The man fell and had to be hospitalised. Mr Lee joined the volunteers to clean up the flat – removing the junk, scrubbing the furniture and giving the walls a fresh coat of paint.
