SINGAPORE: A man was fined S$1,000 (US$739) by the court on Wednesday (Jun 28) for illegally operating a fair at Wisma Geylang Serai last September. 

On Sep 9, 2022, Singapore Food Agency (SFA) officers found that Saifullizan Shaik Osman was operating a temporary fair known as “Geylang Serai Food Festival”.

The fair at Wisma Geylang Serai had started operations on Sep 7 without a valid temporary fair permit, SFA said in a media release on Wednesday. 

During the inspection, 30 food stalls were found operating without a valid licence. 

According to posts on the Wisma Geylang Serai Facebook page, which promoted the event, the fair was supported by the Geylang Serai Cultural Precinct and the Business Indonesia-Singapore Association. 

It was held in partnership with Wisma Geylang Serai and organised by Adex International.
