Sin Lian Heng Construction Pte sued SingTel

Sin Lian Heng Construction Pte sued SingTel in 2006 over unpaid bills for work on the phone company’s cable network . SingTel countersued, claiming Sin Lian Heng breached the contract and wrongfully kept the cables.

Justice Lee Seiu Kin dismissed Sin Lian Heng’s claim and ruled in favor of SingTel, in an Aug. 2 decision, released today.

SingTel’s award takes into account a S$2 million settlement with Sin Lian Heng for the unpaid bills, Lee said. Both companies have appealed the ruling, Lee said.

The cases are Sin Lian Heng Construction Pte v Singapore Telecommunications Ltd. S525/2006 and Singapore Telecommunications Ltd. v Sin Lian Heng  Construction Pte S532/2006 in the Singapore High Court.
