In one of the largest-scale fake degree operations discovered in Singapore in 2021, the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) found that 23 foreign employees had secured jobs here using fake credentials from Manav Bharti University (MBU) in India.
SINGAPORE: The Ministry of Manpower has appointed 12 background check companies to provide employers with services to verify the educational qualifications of foreign employees. This move comes in preparation for the new employment pass application requirements that will be implemented in September this year.
The mandatory verification process has been implemented after years of cases involving foreigners using forged or fake degrees to secure jobs or residency in Singapore. As a result, two Indian nationals were sentenced to imprisonment, and 19 others were permanently prohibited from seeking employment in Singapore due to their use of fraudulent degrees when applying for work passes.
A case involving an American that came to light in 2016 is perhaps one of the biggest such cases involving fake credentials. This same American stole and disclosed confidential data from the Ministry of Health’s HIV database, which involves the personal information and medical records of 14,200 individuals, including HIV-positive Singaporeans and foreign visitors.
