United Overseas Bank (UOB) has sought to assure the public that a netizen who called Singaporeans xenophobic and lazy is not actually holding a vice-presidential role at the bank as he claimed on Facebook.
“May be if Singapoo people were not lazy we Indians wont have to take up your jobs… show some respect to Indian workers here!! [sic]” exclaimed the netizen in a Facebook post that has since been highlighted to UOB.
Earlier today (Sept 22), Felix Ng alerted the bank through its Facebook page about a man who wrote a “disturbing post”.
The man in subject indicated on his profile that he’s a Vice President at UOB — though pretty much anyone can list themselves in any position in any company without verification on Facebook.
Ng’s consternation, however, stemmed from his loyalty to UOB as a client.
“As a client of UOB and having referred clients to UOB as well, I am disturbed as to how he called Singaporeans ‘Singapoo’,” he wrote.
“Its an absolute insult, a mockery of us, and a total disgrace to UOB for hiring somone like him [sic],” he added, urging the bank to conduct an internal investigation.
