When a passenger approached the Passenger Service Centre at Marsiling MRT station, Station Manager Gerad Sequeira noticed that she was barefoot on one foot and was holding a slipper in her right hand.

Sensing that she required some help, he stepped out of the PSC and went up to her. She explained that one of the straps on the slipper had broken, and requested for a rubber band to try and fasten it.

As a rubber band may not work too well, SM Gerad suggested to help the passenger personally by using a stapler to attach the broken-off strap to the slipper. After a few attempts, SM Gerad realised that it would not work, and even if it did, the strap might possibly break off along the passenger’s journey to work. As the nearby shops have not opened and the passenger was in a hurry to report for work, SM Gerad offered his own slippers to the passenger so that she can head to work on time.

[Unit Fire @ 191, Ubi Ave 4]

On 27 Feb at about 2am, SCDF responded to a unit fire in a light industrial building at 191 Ubi Ave 4.

Upon SCDF’s arrival, the fire had fully engulfed two storeys of the affected unit. Firefighters deployed two water jets as an immediate offensive firefighting tactic to control the blaze from within the building. Two additional water jets were also deployed to protect the adjacent units.

Hopefully, the child taken to hospital recovers soon. What actually happened, liaos? Somebody beat red light, or speeding?

Feb 28,07:17am involving a car and a taxi along Compassvale Drive.

Earlier this month, I wanted to top up via PSC cos ur machine accepted only exact fare. I asked for help from station control #HillviewMRT and instead they asked me to go to the convenience store to buy something to get change. #SMRT keeps increasing fares already with bad train operations / maintenance and now furthermore with No service. #Disgust #Disappointed
Please get your act together.
Thank you

Did the old man put his leg up on the opposite seat, or just on the platform without the seats? What do you think? He disturb anyone with his behaviour? Should the netizen just try informing the elderly man instead taking his photo and posting on social media?

Masjid Yusof Ishak Mosque Management Board would like to clarify regarding the recent Chinese New Year lunch programme held at our mosque on Saturday 24 Feb 2018.

The programme was organised by the mosque together with our grassroots partners and was aimed at strengthening cultural ties amongst our various races. It was held at the basement carpark of the mosque and was attended by residents from three welfare homes. The mosque believes strongly in the values of multiculturalism and the importance of social cohesion, as these are consistent with Islam and the ethos of Rahmatan Lil Alamin (being blessings to all).

Unfortunately, some elements of the programme, which involved traditional music and songs to bring festive cheer to the residents of the welfare homes, resulted in an impromptu dance demonstration segment. We acknowledge that this is inappropriate in a mosque setting. This was an oversight by the organising committee and we deeply apologise for the distress that it has caused to our jemaah. We will strive to ensure that such incident will not be repeated.

We thank jemaah for your feedback and look forward to your continued support for our mosques.

I have just been charged a delivery charge for a non delivery by Fairprice online. I looked through my order and invoice documents but could not find a clause that states that there will be a charge for non delivery. I am not sure if this is fair practice to the consumer. If this is the case, then the consumer can also charge Fairprice for late delivery and non delivery. I will be seeking CASE advice if this is a fair treatment on consumer rights.
