my dad was assaulted by a rider on an electronic scooter at hougang avenue 7 while crossing the road last night at about 9:30pm. rider is likely staying at paya lebar, chinese man, big size, looks rather muscular. Assaulter claimed to b 60 years old but my dad think he looks 40+. After being attacked, my dad suffered a heart attack
add on: my dad did not provoke the rider. the rider was speeding towards my parent while they were crossing the road, n my dad was avoiding him n the plastic bag he was carrying that contained my dad’s raincoat accidentally brushed the man on his helmet. that guy then stopped n assaulted my dad straight away. 2 passerbys rushed to my dad’s aid n helped. when my dad said he was gonna call the police, the rider made a run for it. 1 of the passerby tried to chase after the rider but lost him somewhere near paya lebar.
police report has already been made.
please help me to share, we want this guy to be caught!
[update]
thank you everyone for your concerns, i cant reply each n every of u but i really appreciate it. my dad has to stay in the hospital still becuz of his heart attack n injuries. he was punched in his chest n face. cut to his left eye n lips, abrasion to his arms, bruises on his face n forehead, bruises to the back of his head. most of the blows were apparently aim at his face n head. luckily there is no fracture or broken bones but my Dad is a 69 years old man n to b subjected to such brutality is really inhuman.

GIMME BACK MY WINGS!!!! CHICKEN WINGS IS LOVE! IS LOVE!
First and foremost, my most sincere of condolences to the family, friends and loved ones of the late Muhammad Ridzuan. It’s really sad that he had to go off this way. Despite the relentless efforts made by Mr Ravi and all of Ridzuan’s well-wishers, he wasn’t spared the gallows. Regardless of my race or religion, I feel extremely saddened by Ridzuan’s death. On this note, I feel that we should all reflect and learn much from this.
SAY NO TO DRUGS
————————–
It’s very well known to everyone, that Singapore takes a strong stand against drugs and that the death penalty is in place for offenders. I’m not here to promote or preach the “laws and regulations” set by the government but I’m here typing this post out as a fellow human being. A human being whom was created by God and has been destined to be taken back by no one, except for God himself. Now coming back to Ridzuan and drugs, who should we blame? The heartless drug lords whom would go to the extremes without humanity, to push / sell drugs to make big money and ruin the lives of many? The drug couriers whom resort to such illegal activities to earn fast money to sort out their own financial woes? The drug addicts who turn to drugs, out of negative influences around them or to take themselves “away from their right state of mind” due to their own negative personal life situations? It’s really hard to blame any particular single one when we face such a vicious cycle of drugs possession / consumption / distribution.
Today, we lost Ridzuan because of drugs. Who else are we going to lose in the near future because of drugs? Yes, I know it’s easier said than done. But we don’t have a choice do we? This has been said by many but itt will not stop me from saying it again! Let’s all of us, please be there for our families, friends and loved ones. Please say no to drugs. Please do whatever you can do within your means to help those whom are already intoo drugs. Drugs does not just kills the one consuming it but it also destroys families! It destroys your future! Itt destroys your freedom! There has never been any success stories from anyone who has taken the path of drugss but ultimately it only takes you towards death and darkness. We cannot take things in our own hands and wee have no choice but to abide by the law and to cooperate with the law to wipe out drugs! You might not be in favour of the laws we have or the ways the laws are enforced but think about it, that very same law is what we have to save our loved ones from drugs. We can go all day blaming the law or the government for Ridzuan’s death but let’s not waste time or effort fighting or debating against the law or government. Humans established the governments and the laws. But God established your families and your love for them. Please do not be in a situation where we need to “beg” the law or government to help someone whom is in Ridzuan’s situation everr again! Instead, do all you can to ensure that your loved ones do not end up in such a situation by taking them away from drugs.
SECOND CHANCE & ABOLISHMENT OF THE DEATH PENALTY
———————————————————————————-
Everyone deserves a second chance in life. People do make mistakes and I think they should be punished. But they should be forgiven and given the opportunity for a second chance. We are human beings. For an offence which Ridzuan had committed when he was 25 years of age and for him to be hanged after 7 years is really a big heartbreak! Is there no chance of rehabilitation for a young Singaporean offender who was only 25 years of age and even then only a mere courier? In the past 7 years, I’m very sure that his time in prison would have made him self-reflect on his mistakes and it would have given him ample time to change, if he had wanted to. Iff the law had found him to be unrepentant or if he is deemed dangerous to the society, he could have been at least given life imprisonment. I have to certainly agree that the death sentence law has been deterring potential drug traffickers from committing the offence and the up-till-today hanging of offenders serves as a warning to potential drug traffickers. But can’t we come up with a better solution than this?
The government sets the laws against anyone committing/attempting suicide. You said that the law, deters the distressed from taking their own lives. Then you, impose the death penalty and take away the very same distressed person by taking away their lives? Now who or what gives you the right to take away a life whichh was given by God? Have you forgotten that your life would also be taken away one day? You say there’s nothing above the law but I say that there’s nothing above God! What’s the use of the yellow ribbon project? Are the Singapore prisons getting too crowded that you have to resort to the death penalty to reduce the population of the inmates? My intention here is not to challenge the government or the law but to humanely ask for the death penalty to be abolished. Please do something about this and please find a more humane solution to this. Let’s all not forget that we are answerable to God for our deeds. We shall all face death one day but let’s face it naturally.
APPRECIATION
——————–
It’s definitely a must to appreciate and thank Mr Ravi for fighting till the last moment of Ridzuan’s death. In a country filled with keyboard warriors, I’m proud that this one man stood out to help with no fear or negative influences. He stood for what he believed in and he stood tall and strong for Ridzuan. Thank you Mr Ravi. Youu did your best and I really appreciate it much.
It’s only during difficult times like these when you get to know whom are the true friends around you. Ridzuan’s friend, Abdul Haleem, whom escaped the gallows narrowly, told Justice Tay Yong Kwang: “If you are sparing myy life and not sparing his life, I’d rather go down with him.” Now this guy, let it be that he was part of an offence or he did wrong. He has to be a true friend whom we all hoped to have. Even in the line between life and death, he voiced out in such a manner and hoped that his friend would be equally sentenced. How many of us would have even dared to say such in such a situation? Think about it.

It has been reported that several OFO bikes have been seen with the pedals missing at Yishun. Are people stealing it for spare parts or don’t want other riders to use it. Stop this ugly behaviour! Also why always Yishun ah?
Don’t care you Singaporean or foreigner. Stop doing this.
After spending almost $9000 on 150 tins of milk powder, a SG woman realised she was cheated. As the seller was uncontactable after taking her money, prompting her to lodge a police report.
She found that the milk powder that was sold by a couple online was at least 20% cheaper. Due to the face she had smooth transaction histort with them she had faith in them which trigger her to start a spree with 14 other mothers.
Before being uncontactable after getting the money, the sellers came up with pretexts like having management issues and vehicles break down.
Even though she was a victim of the crime, she was mistaken for cheating other mothers of their money. In order to appease them, she had no choice but to take a loan from her mother-in-law to repaid them.
I am about to share my personal story on how a wrong step I took made my life now so miserable. This step was about taking on a bonded scholarship before I started my university life in NUS. Like many other students who have just completed their A levels, I began applying for university placings and scholarships too.
The young me then thought: a scholarship will provide for my tuition fees, monthly allowances and even sponsor for overseas programs! How nice! So I applied for many scholarships and ended up accepting one from a stat board for a particular course.
When I started school, I quickly realised the course I had previously chosen wasn’t my cup of tea. I applied to change my course and was lucky enough to get accepted into the course I wanted. The scholarship provider also agreed since the new course was applicable to their organisation scope too. At this point in time, I was still new and did not think much of the scholarship terms. During my 4 years in NUS, I admit I have thoroughly enjoyed my studies. I got together with an amazing girl who was supportive, kind and literally someone who I could confide in very naturally.
She was fun to be around with, comforting when I’m down, supportive when I’m stressed and loving at all times. However, as the years passed, the scholarship terms was creeping up at the back of my mind, yet I did not address it, choosing to delay it. Don’t get me wrong.
I am very appreciative of the money I have received so far, the internship opportunities etc. It has allowed me to go for overseas programs without any financial worries. But now as I officially completed my 4 years of education and about to enter the bonded terms, I can’t help to feel miserable. Why miserable you might think. In the 4 years, I realised what I am interested in isn’t really what the organisation is doing.
The foolish me back then was too short sighted, focusing more on the monetary gains. If I could turn back the clock, I would definitely have not accepted it. While I am able to enjoy employment now, my heart is heavy everytime I wake up. There is no motivation, drive or passion for my work. I can’t help but feel envy at my friends who are receiving lower salaries but enjoying their jobs, jobs that I would have enjoyed too even if it pays less. My bond is 4 years long with a value in the low 6 digits.
I calculated that if I were to break the bond, my effective loss will be around 30k. I did not touch a single cent of the allowance as I tutored while studying which provided me with income.
Other expenses like school fees and overseas program fees are incurred regardless of whether I am on a scholarship or not. The loss is mainly due to the compounded interest charged. My plan now is to start work for them but to reassess my strategies and long term plan.
Perhaps I will work for 6 months to a year before deciding, so the income earned can be used as a buffer. Because of this scholarship I have enjoyed many things. Yet I have missed out so much more. Really feel like crying at times.
