These cockroaches of the road should be fine.
Not many people are food critics but there are many people who are not idiots.
A man bought his salmon rice from a “Japanese Cuisine” stall at Punggol Oasis for SGD$7.20 but was surprised at what he got.
He received a thin piece of salmon along with plain rice.
On the receipt, it was stated Teriyaki but seems like the teriyaki sauce is no where to be found.
Will you pay SGD$7.20 for this?

She had failed to notice a drunk man lying on the road and drove over him, killing him.
The victim, Hariharan Anoshun, 24-years-old, was a mechatronics student at Temasek Polytechnic.
Hariharan had alighted from a taxi on 26 September 2019 at around 1am, before proceeding to kneel down in a prostrate position on the side of the road (the first lane) at Jalan Bukit Merah.
Another taxi passed and saw him on the road, so the driver stopped his car about 5m away from him, to block the way and prevent other vehicles from running over him.
The driver then called the police.
Wai was driving her company car at the time, and she sounded her horn at the taxi.
The taxi driver, gestured to her to overtake him, which she did.
She immediately turned left after overtaking and ran over the victim, who was lying on the ground.
But she didn’t realise there was a person under her car, she thought she had hit a pothole.
She then reversed her car over the victim, and tried to drive forward again.
A passerby signalled to her that there was something under her car, and that was when she stopped.
The victim had to be extricated out and taken to SGH, where he later died from multiple injuries from the accident.

A netizen shared how his mother, who works as a hawker at People’s Park Food Centre, was scammed by an uncle.
He said that he told his mother that he needed to borrow $85 because his colleague had “just been in a car accident” and that he “needed cash to pay for it first”.
He promised to pay her back later that day, to which the kindhearted old lady agreed to help him out.
Here is the story:
“hi guys, help a dear friend out please 🙏🏻
My mother works as a hawker in Chinatown at People’s Park Food Centre.
On 1st July 2021, around 7:50AM, a man (shown in the photos) came up to her and desperately asked to borrow $85 as he said that his colleague just been in a car accident and he needed cash to pay for it first.
He assured and promised that he would pay her back the money later that day. My mother, out of the kindness and trust in her heart, loaned him the money that he would be true to his promise.
Despite this act of generosity and faith, the man never came back to return her hard earned money.
At a loss, she went around Chinatown asking the regulars and store owners in the area if they had seen the man around but it was to -no avail.
However, a number of people who recognised the man claimed that he was a serial scammer who targeted the meek and older aunties and uncles in the area – people like my mother, a hardworking hawker who despite not being wealthy, was generous enough to lend a helping -hand to a stranger in need.
If anyone has seen him around, please let me know. I know it’s impossible to get the money back but please do spread this to anyone you know, especially your grandparents that is a regular at that area. thank you! 🙏🏻”
