Thanks to everyone who supported this cause. The story has finished. Apparently, the salary reduction was due to the new contractor following new guidelines to pay the minimum wages. It is also based on the certificates which will get them to update their skills to get better wages. So if you do not have the required certificate, you cannot get the minimum entitlement. One was due to classification. Although the hardworking cleaner cleaned both the lift, lift lobby, and the outside environment, the cleaner is classified as an indoor cleaner which automatically dropped the salary scale lower.  They were all able to enjoy a good salary with the previous contractor who apparently was generous. The new contractor wishes to stick to the MOM guideline, hence the discrepancies.  All the cleaners except for one have since left as they were able to get a better offer elsewhere. All of us learnt a lot from this to appreciate all the elderly workers who still have to survive in our society with the new changes. We will miss their presence as they were part of the features for decades! We wish them all the best.
