SINGAPORE: MediaCorp actor Christopher Lee will retain his Singapore Permanent Resident status, according to the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA).

 

Fans of Lee have been concerned about his PR status after he was jailed for drink driving related offences. So the reply from the ICA should come as good news to them.

 

The ICA has completed its review on Lee's case and decided to allow him to retain his PR status.

 

He will, however, come under close observation.

 

In making known the outcome of the review to the actor on Wednesday, the ICA said it would revoke its current decision should he violate the law again.

 

Lee will be performing in a charity show for the Society for the Physically Disabled (SPD) this Sunday.

 

Other stars taking part in the show include his girlfriend, Fann Wong. - CNA/yy

Even losing his PR, he still can get a work permit to work over here. Yes?

If he is not allow a PR, he could still get a work permit to work here and stop contributing to CPF and this would even make it easier to ditch Singapore in future becasue he got no assest being "lock up" like us.
