A total of 14 Indian nationals, aged between 19 and 44, were arrested on Tuesday (March 3) for alleged immigration offences following an enforcement operation in Hougang. In a news release on Wednesday, the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA) said the suspects who were rounded up comprised 13 overstayers and one harbourer. The alleged overstayers — 11 men and two women — are purported to have remained in Singapore after their visit passes had expired. Meanwhile, the suspected harbourer — a 26-year-old man — allegedly provided the 13 overstayers with lodging. The offence of overstaying carries a penalty of up to six months' jail, along with caning of at least three strokes or a fine of up to $6,000. Overstayers will also be deported and barred from re-entering Singapore after their sentencing and/or payment of fines. Meanwhile, anyone found guilty of recklessly or knowingly harbouring overstayers and/or illegal immigrants faces a jail term of between six months and two years, along with a fine of up to $6,000.

The EU has made closing the gender gap in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) a priority in its education, research and employment policies. This answers to legal requirements to pursue gender equality through any EU action, as well as to practical imperatives to address a shortage of specialists that limits the EU's ability to compete in the global technological race. Moreover, existing data show that many young women today have strong maths and science skills but are still largely absent from careers in engineering and information and communications technology (ICT). Research shows that the under-representation of women in STEM has many causes, including: unwelcoming work environments in STEM jobs, family caring responsibilities, and social norms that discourage girls from pursuing these fields. Tackling these issues requires a combined approach including: challenging rigid gender stereotypes, using gender-sensitive teaching methods in schools, encouraging girls to choose STEM careers, and removing barriers to employment. The EU pursues gender equality as a cross-cutting priority in various policies that cover STEM, and has adopted specific initiatives to promote women in STEM. In education, it uses a range of measures to support women at all levels, from schools to universities. In research, EU funding now depends on programmes promoting gender equality. In employment, EU laws help remove obstacles that might put women off STEM careers. The EU also funds projects that support women's innovation, entrepreneurship, networking and mentoring. The European Parliament strongly backs these efforts, and has called for wider action by the EU and its Member States. Source : © European Union, 2026 - EP
