An elderly man who was previously reported missing for 5 days has to lead to a tragedy.

The man has been missing since 28 August and family members of the elderly man have been using social media to spread the word. The Police went to the family of the elderly man yesterday (31 Aug) and told them that the man was found dead inside Singpost.

Here is her Facebook post:

Dear all, It is with the deepest sorrow to inform you that our Father/Father-In-Law has passed on. Police came up to Haig Road house 1 hour ago and informed us that his body was found inside Singpost.

The police are still investigating the case and we are unable to review more information as of now. We sincerely thank everyone for your help in all ways, keeping him and our family in prayers over the past few days. We appreciate that you give us some space as we grieve our loss. Thank you.

非常感谢大家前几天的协助, 祈祷和祝福。很遗憾的，我们的父亲/家翁以离世。警方还在调查当中，我们不方便透露更多消息。希望大家能给我们一点空间和时间处理后事。谢谢。

A netizen who is presumably a doctor, shared how she was rushing to her clinic in the morning and booked a ride via Gojek.

Upon learning about her working at a clinic, the driver dropped her off on the main road and told her that he was “uncomfortable driving (her)”.

Here is the story:

“I was rushing to my work place in morning and booked a Gocar.

When the driver arrived and picked me up he started talking to me and asked me casually if I m working in Paragon and I replied yes. Then he asked me if I work in a clinic and my reply was yes.

And he suddenly stopped the car just outside on the main road and asked me to get off the car as he said he was not comfortable driving me.

I was in utter disbelief so I asked him if he really meant it and he said yes… he has kids at home and he would not want to drive me.

I was shocked but still respecting his wish I got off the car feeling bad how doctors are being disrespected when they are actually serving the society.

As the trip had already started he was unable to cancel it so he asked me to cancel the trip.

Obviously, I was also not going to be able to do so once the ride had started… this would result in his financial loss as he can neither charge me nor cancel.

So then he changed his mind and asked me to sit in his car again. I was quite hurt and did not want to travel in his car anymore.

He told me I can COMPLAINT SINGAPORE to Gojek Singapore if I want.

I did sent mail to @Gojek but have not heard back from them yet except the automatic response that they would give me some small free voucher..

I m totally disheartened and saddened by such rude and selfish behavior from driver and Gojek

Such discrimination against doctors and other medical staff is totally unacceptable. A soldier fighting on front war for our safety needs more love and respect and affection.

At this time medical staff are soldiers dressed in white and risking their own as well as their family’s life to perform their duty and protect society.

They need extra love and respect and not such dealings at any cost. Do u agree?”

A netizen shared a story about how he was dumped by his girlfriend because he wasn’t an officer or sergeant in the army.

She said that he has no drive and that he isn’t fit.

She then told him that she dated a guy who was an “airforce pilot”.

7 years later, the guy owns his own SME and his ex girlfriend’s husband then applied for a job with his company.

He rejected him.

HERE IS THE STORY

“Few years ago a girl I was dating dumped me for the most stupid reason

My pes status , and my rank in the army.

For the 1st year of us being together the topic of national service never came up.

I only causally mentioned I had been downgraded my pes status.

She then asked if I was an officer

I told her no She then asked ,so you’re a Sargent?

I remember my exact reply “no just a regular man”

She then said “you have no drive that’s why”

I can’t date you liao ,”you not an officer and you not fit”

She added I wasn’t from a good family that’s why I can’t be an officer.

She then revealed to me she had dated a guy who was an” air force pilot ” during NS I didn’t reply cause I know that is totally not possible . I shook her hand and wished her good luck

That night she sent me one long text reminding me of my “lack of drive ” me not being fit and not being an officer and not being good in uni and not “hustling ” to earn $$It’s been 7 years since this happened . I still laugh about this and feel super blessed.

I own my own SME now ,and turns out her husband (the same guy) has applied for a job but hid CV says Logistics officer(S4) And he’s only got a 2nd upper .I didn’t hire him ,I refered him to some other of my business associates firms because am not spiteful at all.

If you’re reading this my dear old friend

Thanks for letting me go.Best regards.

Also note I’ve dorn quite a few triathlons so ya still fit hahahha”

A netizen has shared on Facebook a rare sight of a group of Otters in front of an altar.

While otters are frequently seen around parts of Singapore sometimes being up to no good, it is the first time that a group of them were seen in front of an altar.

On closer look, the front row of Otters seems to be targeting the food below the altar while the rest awaits.
