A video emerged online showing a man being caught on CCTV stealing an iPhone that was left unattended on a table outside an eatery.
The netizen who posted the video, Eugene Tan, captioned it: “Eh guys please share around this guy steal my bro iphone now denied that he never steal!!! Please help & share everywhere oso can thanks for your help!!! At 3magazine road (SIC)“
The man, wearing a white shirt in the video, was seen talking on the phone as he walked past the table where the iPhone was left.
He appeared to be going towards the toilet, before immediately turning around after allegedly seeing the phone’s owner leaving the table.
He then walked back to the table and took the phone, before walking away while admiring his loot, and he then walked back towards the direction of the toilet.
The person who was filming the CCTV footage, pointed out how the owner was right there in the vicinity, probably less than 20 metres away, but the man still dared to steal from him.
He was seen in another angle walking into the toilet after stealing the phone.
Potential penalties
The offense of theft under Section 379 of the Penal Code, Chapter 224 carries a jail term of up to 3 years, or a fine, or both.
Mental health wellness is a thing now I know but the number of people who try to rebrand themselves as life coach is ridiculous.
This is excluding professionals who spent years getting their degree, masters, PhD, clocking in clinical hours in psychology, being a certified professional psychologist, psychiatrist.
Many of these life coach have troubled childhood themselves, goes on to brand themselves as empath, and probably couldn’t adapt so well into their original career choices.
Quick check on LinkedIn and you will find their write up being so wonderful, they give thanks to community, celebrate all small accomplishments and interactions. I will say their are in the business of being an influencer rather than life coach.
I know of a life coach who brand herself as worked through “mind body connection” when she was a sugar baby and she “forms close relationships with top management personnel” means she slept with all her bosses in her midst for career change.
I am really concerned when these life coaches are hired by MOE for school programs. They sell their service as coaching you, your kids, couples into knowing and finding yourself, building confidence and relationship. There’s no third party listening in the sessions, god knows how they could have subtly instil their personal values into our kids!
Have MOE done a good background check on their third party vendors? Ah, I forget, even MOE teachers these days may not have good moral values!
Parents, please be more involved in your kids growing up and don’t be afraid to have difficult conversations. Or even better, go pick up skills to be life coaches as well and be the life coach for your kids!

22-year-old Delwin Neo Kah Keng pleaded guilty on Tuesday at the High Court to one count of rape, and two other unrelated charges for offences made against another victim.
Neo, who was 19 at the time of the offence, had insisted on sending a drunk 18-year-old girl home, and sent his friends a series of messages, including “am I too innocent to not even touch her?”
His friends warned him not to touch her but he still forced himself on the victim and raped her.
Neo’s case has been adjourned to a later date for his sentencing.
What happened?
Neo was a full-time NSF at the time, and on 20 November 2019, he met the victim at a birthday party in Clarke Quay that he had organised for a friend at a club.
The victim got drunk at the party at about 2am, and was lying down drunk on a sofa; Neo then took a video of her and sent it to a WhatsApp group chat for the party attendees.
He told the group at 2.20am that he was going to send the girl home and one of is friends told him not to do so, but Neo insisted.
A promoter at the club offered to send the girl home but Neo insisted of sending her home himself, booking a taxi along the way.
The two then arrived at about 3.30am at the girl’s flat where she lived alone, and after entering her home, the girl told him to lock the gate and throw the keys through the gate after he left.
The girl was inside her bedroom, thinking that Neo had left, and took off almost all of her clothes before falling asleep on the bed.
Neo asked her to perform several explicit acts on him at some point but was rejected by the girl who went back to sleep.
He then texted a friend at about 3.45am, saying that the girl was not wearing anything on the bed, before texting another friend at about 4am, saying “I might be a devil soon.”
He then proceeded to rape the victim, who woke up during the assault – he then asked her if it was “nice” for her and continued raping her despite her pleas for him to stop.
He eventually stopped and was chased out of the flat by the victim, and he then kept asking her if she was okay and told her not to tell anyone about what he did.
Later that evening, Neo texted the victim and apologised, and she replied that he had raped her, which Neo didn’t deny and asked her how the matter could be settled.
The victim then called the police the next morning to lodge a report against Neo, who was then arrested on the same day at about 11.40am.
I would like to know how most couples work on splitting the bill?
I knew my bf around two years ago. When we first started to date, he mentioned nowadays couples go dutch. I think it’s reasonable since we just got together althought I heard from some friends that go dutch is not always true, some bf will just pay. Anyway, we started go dutch and things were fine along.
Our relationship is going stable and he started to plan about our future. At the same time, we still go dutch and occasionally would pay for each other. But I don’t see a mutual future with him by going dutch in the long run. I feel like I am with a long term roommate/friend that going dutch forever. I don’t feel secured. I also don’t know how to start this topic with him.
Today, another guy friend told me go dutch is not usual. I know different couples got different ways. But it’s slowly affects me how I see our relationship in the future.
Would like to seek for advice or opinion on how you guys think about go dutch for dating and married couples?
Here are what netizens think:
If it bothers you now, it will bother you more later. Its not just the act of paying for your own share when on a date, it’s also about the feeling if your partner is being calculative with you. There’s no norm and it’s best not to compare. Most couples will have some small issues but the happy ones will choose to focus on what’s important and resolve whatever differences that they have. You have bigger issues if you can’t even voice out to him what’s bothering you. Life lesson here. Learn to communicate. Date with the intent to marry? Have the courage to bring up the hard conversations. This is the time to know if you are both compatible to marry each other. What happens after marriage? What happens if you are unable to work? What about bills and payments that is pertaining to pregnancy, hospital bills, childcare etc?
Depends on what you offer lo… some girls just want free lunch free dinner… but they have nothing to offer in the relationship….
Doesn’t matter who earns more. Ditch him if he can’t afford a meal for 2
It’s give and take. Sometimes you treat, sometimes the other party treat.

One of them smashed a glass bottle on the 30-year-old victim’s head as the other two rained punches and kicks on him.

Another Noor Shah Ryzqa Azman was also with the trio at the time, and they shared a bottle of whiskey before leaving the bar at about 10.30pm.
Wong was carrying the bottle of whiskey with him and drinking from it as they walked around the area, and the four drunk men then ended up near the Riverside Point mall along Merchant Road.
They wanted to buy cigarettes and asked a security guard for directions to a nearby 7-Eleven.
The victim was with his friends nearby drinking at a bar before he left and went to the 7-Eleven by himself, crossing paths with Amirul.
Amirul thought Chua was staring at him and attacked him from behind with Wong, who smashed the whiskey bottle on Chua’s head, resulting in him losing a patch of his hair,
They also rained punches on Chua, who had fallen onto the ground by this point, and Dani Zulastri then ran towards them and joined in the assault after hearing the commotion, kicking Chua.
Ryzwa was watching the attack from afar, before fleeing from the crime scene with the trio, running towards the State Courts.

Recap (from victim’s POV)
A 30-year-old man, Chua, was allegedly attacked with a sharp object from behind and ended up needing two surgeries and 20 stitches.
The incident happened on 20 March 2022 at Clark Quay at about 10.30pm, near the Riverside Piazza.
Chua’s girlfriend, Low, said that they were at a friend’s birthday at a restaurant on 20 March, and he had left the restaurant momentarily to buy a drink from a 7-11 store nearby at about 10.30pm.

Chua was shocked by the attack from seemingly out of nowhere and also by the blood that was spurting from out of his wound.
He can’t remember if he had turned around to identify the attacker.
Chua walked back to the restaurant after the attack and asked his friends for help, and they then called the ambulance.
Chua’s friend then called her (Low) to tell her about the attack and told her to rush over as he was bleeding a lot.
He was then seen in a video being attended to by paramedics, as his face was seen covered in blood.
The video was posted on a popular social media platform, with the intention of creating a viral video. The video was shared by thousands of people, with many claiming that it was one of the funniest videos they had ever seen.
The video featured three women, who were all dressed in a pageant-style dresses and wearing a sash with the words “Miss Universe” written on it.
The women gave some hilarious remarks stating where they are from.
The video quickly went viral, being shared by thousands of people and being picked up by various news outlets around. It was a huge success, and it showed that people are willing to share and record their dumb moments, even if it is only for a few seconds of internet fame.
The video was a great example of how powerful social media can be, and how it can be used to create a viral video. It also showed that people are willing to do anything for a few seconds of fame, even if it means recording a dumb moment of themselves.
However, the video also showed that people should be careful when recording and sharing videos of themselves, as it can easily be misinterpreted by others.
It is important to remember that just because something is funny or entertaining, it does not mean that it is appropriate to post on social media. People should think before they post, and ensure that any videos they post are respectful and appropriate.
A woman in Singapore, Xenia Tan, has been saving money and depositing coins inside her piggy bank for the last 28 years.
She then decided to break it apart and see how much she had saved and accumulated over the last (almost) 3 decades.
She posted a video of herself breaking open her piggy bank on her TikTok page, @hotcheekylace, and cautioned it: “Guess how much is in this piggy bank?”
She said in her video that her father had started saving money in the piggy bank before she was born, and that she didn’t contribute to the money inside as her father had saved for her.
She said that they were scared that the coins inside might’ve been discoloured because it had been inside the piggy bank for a long time, and they decided now was the time to break it open.
Armed with a hammer in hand and surrounded by her family, Xenia swung the hammer on the bronze-coloured piggy and shattered it, as a bunch of coins flowed out.
Her entire family then gathered around the coins, which comprised of $1s, and started counting them together; and the coins were then neatly stacked together.
Tan said at the end of the video that the total amount of coins amounted to about $7,000, quite a difference from the $16,000 that her father had estimated.
I’m seriously so tired of people who constantly use their baby as an excuse during work.
Now before anyone comes after me and say “I’m not understanding” or “you wait until you become a parent”, having a baby was YOUR choice and not having a baby is also MY choice. I don’t see why I have to be penalised for your choice or why I have to be more “considerate” of you because of a choice YOU made.
Having and not having a baby comes with both pros and cons, and just because I don’t have a baby, doesn’t mean I need to absorb the cons of someone who has one.
At work I let parents take the school holidays off as I know parents are busy prepping kids back for School or that is the only time they can go overseas with their children.
Our office operationally cannot close during last week of the year either. That is the compromise I am willing to make as I know how stressful it is to prep kids back to school and yes, I feel that it is quite generous as if given the option, I would like to take the last week off to unwind.
I can tolerate up to the point where a child falls sick and needs their parent to care for them because everyone falls sicks and it’s also not a weekly occurrence.
The one thing I cannot stand, is when people end up using their babies as excuse to “evade” work or under the guise of staying home or even get people to do things for them. Then they proceed to ask other people to wipe up their backside and do things for them because they have a “baby”. I consider baby and children a part of personal life, and it if it affects your competency to do work, then maybe you’re a lousy worker.
Lord can’t wait to leave this shitty company after I get my bonus for the FY *rolls eyes*
A Thai woman went “Super Saiyan” after she stormed into a brothel and brutally attacked a prostitute that her husband had hired.
Her husband had reportedly left the brothel after “finishing his appointment” with the prostitute, and was not there when his wife attacked the victim.
The incident reportedly took place on 25 January in Phuket, Thailand, according to the Daily Mail.
The Thai woman had found pictures of the prostitute on her husband’s phone, and she then secretly followed him to a massage parlour.
She then went into the brother but her husband had already left the premises, and she found the prostitute seated on a chair and wrapped in a towel.
She then ripped the towel off the victim’s body and exposed her, before attacking her viciously; kicking, slapping, pulling her hair and standing on top of the victim.
She also tried to snatch the victim’s phone away, as several women stood around the commotion and watched as the assault went on.
The victim was heard apologising to the woman, saying that she didn’t know her customer was married and promised to stop seeing him.
The Thai authorities are investigating the incident.
Colonel Sarawut Chuprasit confirmed that the attack took place at a Phuket brothel, where the victim was having an affair with the man.
He said that they have received no complaints or reports from the involved parties, but urged the victim to make a police report.
