Dear ASS Admins,

I was discriminated because I was wearing a hijab, I like to share my unfortunate experience with you. I went for an interview today at one of the modern montessori preschool in Kovan and my interview went well until my interviewer Mdm Sheela, Director of MMI told me....
Interviewer: Since you are wearing the hijab if you start working here you have to wear a bandanna to cover your just your hair.
Me: what is the reason for this policy in your company?
Interviewer: Because we have many incidents where chinese parents are afraid to handover their kids to a staff who is wearing hijab. kids get scared too.
This is the most ridiculous reason I have ever heard for not allowing hijab in workplace.
Called ministry of manpower they refer to MUIS.
Called MUIS, they refer somewhere else.
MOM PUT ON HOLD........
MUIS PUT ON HOLD.............
THIRD TRANSFER ------- SORRY OFFICE HOURS ARE CLOSED...
CLAP CLAP WOW SINGAPORE SO MULTIRACIAL!
