SINGAPORE -- The coronavirus pandemic has had far-reaching effects on economies worldwide, both big and small. And those are no more keenly felt than by one Indian engineer whose career in Singapore came to an abrupt and unexpected end.
The man, in his 30s, lost his job at a multinational manufacturer in the city-state in August due to a COVID-19-spurred restructuring. He hoped to land a new job there but found it "quite challenging," mostly due to the limited nature of his specialty.
