A woman in Tampines reported that two men allegedly selling curry puffs without a licence fled after she questioned them. The incident occurred when the woman noticed the men operating in the area and asked if they had the proper authorization. The men reportedly ran away before authorities could intervene.
The woman, who is part of the local community, said she had seen similar activities before but had not taken action until this time. She called the Stomper, a local news platform, to report the incident. The men were believed to be from Batam, a nearby island, and were selling the food on the street.
Authorities have not yet confirmed whether the men were operating illegally or if any legal action will be taken. The Stomper reported the incident, highlighting concerns about unregulated street food vendors in the area. Local residents are urging stricter enforcement of food hygiene and licensing laws.
The incident has sparked discussions about the need for better oversight of street vendors in Tampines. (stomp.sg)
