Several netizens are expressing outrage after one Singaporean from the country’s Indian community highlighted that a public notice circulating in the Woodlands-Admiralty area bears text in a North Indian language instead of Tamil.
On Friday, Facebook user Vijaya Kandasamy alerted netizens to the erroneous public notice about the temporary relocation of a market in the Woodlands-Admiralty region. The notice was written in four languages: English, Mandarin, Malay and a North Indian language. Additionally, a second mistake in the notice was picked up by a netizen responding to Vijaya’s Facebook post; the Malay translation in the public announcement is inaccurate and makes it seem like the notice issuer is “again looking for” instead of relocating the market. Malay is the national language of Singapore.
