[SINGAPORE] SingPost has incurred its largest fine in history - $30,000 for an estimated 400-500 pieces of mail that were stolen in September last year.
The Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore (IDA) levied the fine on SingPost yesterday, finding the latter in breach of its Public Postal Licence condition.
The mail in question, meant for six blocks of flats, was stolen at Woodlands Circle on Sept 5 last year after a neighbourhood postwoman left her trolley with mail in it unattended because she had to use the washroom across the street. When she returned, the trolley and its contents were gone. The mail has not been recovered and no arrests have been made.
