The news said all 4 employees were Singaporeans.

No. what Nikkei is saying is:

1. they have not independently verified the nationalities of the four ex-employees but has been informed by sources or contextual clues.

2. some level of uncertainty ("understands to all be Singaporeans"), it leaves open the possibility that later verification could prove otherwise.

Actually hor, if Nikkei phrase their statement like this, it could also be that the mention of their Singaporean nationality implies that it is relevant to the context of the discussion, possibly in relation to the nature of the case, legal jurisdiction, or public interest.

i think you shouldn't read too much into this article. it could be a deflection article to lay the blame on the 4 unnamed "singaporean" employees instead of the owner.

it could be a case of this company found to be doing laundry service and now the boss finding ways to not go jail by fledging innocence.

Think if of the impression this kind usually its own people, i.e. family, hold the purse one. Want to take or use money have to go through them. The local employees got so much power meh. Something seems off.
