A Grabshare driver shared his experience with an Ah Lian couple who kept scolding him and threatened to get him sacked because he could not locate their pick up point.
According to the netizen, Farhan, he picked up his first rider at Bishan before heading to a condominium at Jalan Peminpin Dr. 7. He turned into the condo and tried to locate his passengers, who were a pair of Ah Lians. Being unable to locate his passengers, he called one of the Ah Lians on the phone. The woman proceeded to scold him on the phone as she claimed that she had already sent the driver a text message.
When the driver finally picked up the passengers, he apologized for missing their message as he was concentrating on his driving. However, the women continued to nag at the driver and scold him even in the presence of the first passenger. The constant scolding made the driver so uncomfortable, he decided to tell the 2 Ah Lians to get down from the car.
After getting down from the car, the women continued to argue with the driver for more than 15 minutes and called Grab support to make a scene. The first passenger tried to end the fight by telling the driver to move on and take her to her destination. The Ah Lians then threatened that they would make the driver lose his job.

Here’s the account I got from my colleagues (I was, unfortunately, not at dinner).
This year’s office lohei was at Mouth Restaurant on Cross Street. Dinner was winding down, and two of my female colleagues, T and R walked out to use the building’s restroom at about 9.30 PM. The restroom is approximately 20 m away from the restaurant’s main entrance, which faces the main road. As they were coming out of the restroom and walking back to the restaurant, the corridor was blocked by two men. They announced that they were from Portugal after trying to guess T and R’s country of origin, and blocked T and R’s way back to the restaurant. One of the 2 men then proceeded to harass T her and asked her to take her shirt off and show him her boobs. T said ‘NO’ repeatedly, and instead of backing off, the man moved towards her, picked her up off the floor and molested her. #nomeansno
I would never use the term ‘molest’ lightly, but the Oxford English dictionary defines it as ‘assault or abuse [of] (a person, especially a woman or child) sexually” and to “pester or harass (someone) in an aggressive or persistent manner. Touching another person inappropriately and without consent falls squarely within these definitions.
Colleague T was shocked, afraid, and kept saying “No!”, and had colleague R not grabbed onto her hand and screamed, the molester would not have put her down.
Both women were really upset, and hurried back into the restaurant. Our colleagues confronted the 2 men, and tried to block them from leaving, and a little tussle ensued. The men’s colleagues then came out of the restaurant and pulled everyone apart, but the molester charged forward and headbutted one of my male colleagues.
When my colleagues confronted the man’s colleagues about what happened, they brushed it off with an “Oh, we thought they were friends.”
Sure, when you see a woman struggling when being manhandled by a guy, you automatically think that they are friends, and that this is normal behavior among friends.
It’s not.
To be fair, the molester’s colleagues did apologise, but other than give us the molester’s name, “Bruno” and that he was visiting from Portugal, they refused to give us their company name or any other contact information. They even told “Bruno” to leave immediately.
My colleagues approached the restaurant for the contact of the company, they said that they would only disclose the company’s name to the police.
So my colleague T filed a police report the next day. She had to endure an unpleasant interview by the police officer, who prefixed the interview by saying, “Are you sure you want to do this? If this goes to court, you’ll need to testify….” and then concluding with, “Are you sure they weren’t just trying to be friendly? You know, ang moh culture is different from ours…”
Seriously? This is the response from the police officer?
SHAME ON YOU!
When this was told to me, I was furious. Furious at the entitled “Bruno” (and friend who egged him on) for his reprehensible behavior; furious at “Bruno’s” colleagues for dismissing it and shrugging it off; and furious at the restaurant for not doing more to protect the wellbeing of its customers.
But I’m most disappointed by the fact that the police officer who took my colleague’s statement, didn’t take her complaint seriously. I worry that they will do nothing.
I cannot, in good conscience, let “Bruno” and his accomplices get away with this, nor can I condone our police force’s less than appropriate response to the situation.
Please repost this, and let people know that such behavior is repulsive, and that we will not tolerate this in our society.
Here I am.. thinking back n forth whether should I post or not..? And of course, it takes lots of courage to speak up.. It is definitely not easy..
My ultimate reason for this post is a SHOUTOUT towards standing up against FAMILY VIOLENCE, PHYSICAL ABUSE and ADULTERY. This is definitely not a humiliating session.. This society protects women. Most of them suffer silently…
Facing the criticism and humiliation being made; facts being twisted unknowingly.. I do appreciate the obstacles and failures I faced. It makes me even stronger..💪🏻
Don’t be afraid to speak up..!
I used to think by sharing all these are embarrassing and disgraceful.. How will ppl look at me..? How do I move forward? All these questions pop up over n over again.. People have been asking me..
What happened? Are u ok? And today, I made my decision to share.. I’m really grateful to the people around me.. Especially my family and frds who have been showing care and concern..
Most of them had given me the support I nv expect.. Nothing can prove my gratitude towards all of u.. Nonetheless, I have already move on.. A BIG Thank You!
PS: Some pictures may be obscene.. pardon my HONESTY.
I believe actions speak louder than words..
***SHARED THIS AROUND TO STOP FAMILY VIOLENCE, PHYSICAL ABUSE & ADULTERY!!!***
Can people with dietary requirements start knowing what you can and can’t eat? Shellfish allergy but loves oyster sauce. Gluten free but loves gluten as long as it’s not a piece of bread. Vegetarians that love a chicken wing. Pescatarians who eat chicken. Sort your sh*t out and let your waiter know. You make it really damn hard for people with actual allergies and dietary to go out to eat.
I knew this instructor when I sign up for personal trainer with fitness first. At first, he was a good trainer so I still sign personal lesson with him even when he resign from fitness first.
I still continue my training session with him in some gym call Dynamic Fitness. So that time we agree $90/per lesson(so which mean if there is no lesson done, there wont be any deduction). But I need to pay for 8 lessons first before he can take me as his clients. (As he told me he need the money urgently) So I paid him a total of $720.
I start having two lesson with him as I am very free and got time for training. But things start to go wrong when I start my new job. As I am busy with my work, I dont have time for training, which also means I still have
$560 balance(as no training lesson was done so there will be no deduction except for the two lessons I scheduled before).
Since the month before raya, he checked with me but I was busy due to the new driver job so didn’t get back to him and since then he didn’t check on me anymore. Right now, I have been chasing after him for the balance back in a nice and easy way but he blocked me in all channel. So I have come to decide to make this public and whoever are planning to take a instructor please look carefully at the person you are looking for.
For anyone that knew him, please kindly refer this to him. I dont care what people have to say but I will wait and see if he is going to return the money or not, otherwise I will be making this into a police report. #freelancerfitnessinstructor #PTI #fitnessfirst #fitnessinstructor
According to reports, a Singaporean was shocked when man bleeding out from his face appeared in front of the main door and asked for help.
A 32-year-old Vietnam man was attacked by one of his compatriots during a drinking session. A total of 5 men was present in the flat when the incident happened. After the dispute started. One of the men took out a knife and slash the victims face. After the slashing occurred, the group dispersed from the scene. It is unclear how the dispute.
Desperate for help, the victim went to his neighbour’s main door and seek help.
This is at Blk 229 CCK Central, I stopped to take a short video. The teacher was scolding at the kid chasing him out together with his bag, saying he is making so much noise while the other children are sleeping. And she wanted to close the door but noticed me taking video, thus changed her tone.
To this particular parent of the child, hope you see this and consider talking to the Teacher. This childcare is really not recommended as I always hear the teachers scolding the children. I believe Education is not this way. The teacher too told child, she will ask the rubbish man uncle to catch him. This is why I stopped to video her. Before I video her she was talking as though she has lost her temper.
