On 9 January 2021, one of the shoppers at Chinatown Point was feeling thirsty and wanted to get a cup of orange juice
He went to the Q Juice machine that hoping to get a cup of freshly made cup of orange juice.
But to his surprise, he saw something black inside the machine. Since the machine is transparent from the front view, he can see the oranges moving from point to point inside the machine. That’s when he saw a black rotten orange rolling out from point to point to get made into juice.
After this incident that he saw, he isn’t sure if he wants to continue buying from the machine again as there might be chances that more than one rotten orange could be used.

“Hi, I’m currently in a kind of a relationship with a girl. Relationship is described as such due to us getting to know each other online. Despite our mutual feelings for each other, we are unable to be there physically for each other due to different geographical locations. This relationship has been ongoing for a few months.
However, she recently expressed her frustration that we are unable to meet due to the Covid situation and she longs to be hugged by someone, which I am presently unable to provide. As such, she asked if she is able to get together with someone else in her area who can provide her with such physical interaction. As much as I am unwilling to, i agreed to it with some conditions set. She agreed to those conditions and assured me that the relationship with the other guy won’t be a serious one as she believes the motive for getting together isn’t serious. But in the event it does get serious, she promises to inform me so that i won’t waste my time.
She is however unable to give assurances that she will break up with the guy to be with me if their relationship is still ongoing and i am able to visit her at the soonest available time.
In this kind of situation, what would be the ideal course of action. Really torn about it as I do wish for things to work out between us.”

Teo Heng Family KTV was first forced to cease their operations back in Mar 2020 due to the hit of the pandemic.
It was reported that the company has since suffered a loss of $500,000 per month following its closure as the company sought to keep their staff and pay them their salaries in full.
Before the company’s announcement of exiting the industry, the company had already closed down 7 of their outlets including their first-ever outlet at Katong Shopping Centre.
