2 weeks' jail for PR applicant
Has appealed as he fears a jail term would mean repatriation
By Khushwant Singh


A CONSTRUCTION worker, who rose to become the boss of two building firms within seven years, wanted so desperately to become a Permanent Resident (PR), he broke the rules.

Lin Shuliang was on Wednesday jailed for two weeks for lying about his educational qualifications in his applications.

The 38-year-old Chinese national had pleaded guilty on June 1.

A district court heard that he had claimed to have graduated from the Fuqing San Shan Middle School in Fujian province in China.

He even attached his school-leaving certificate but a check by the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA) revealed it was a fake.

The judge could have fined him up to $4,000 or jailed him for up to a year or imposed a fine and a jail term. Lin is appealing against the sentence.

His lawyer Chia Boon Teck had earlier asked District Judge Jasbendar Kaur not to impose a jail term as Lin was very worried that the chances of being repatriated would be much higher if he receives a jail sentence than if he was just fined.

'As Lin is the only person with full control of the operations, he would be forced to wind up his successful business if he is jailed for a long period or repatriated,' said the lawyer.

One of his two companies, Ying Cheng Construction, generated a net profit in excess of $1 million in the last fiscal year, the lawyer added.

Lin is currently involved as a sub-contractor in 10 projects. These include the Singapore Art School and the building of several condominiums and residencies.
