Sheng Siong supermarket is truly impressive. After announcing an additional one month salary for its employees, it went around neighbourhoods silently giving donations at wakes out of kindness. This is setting the bar way too high for competitor NTUC FairPrice supermarket which is already being accused of raising its prices during COVID-19.

Another video showing alleged gang members walking alongside a funeral procession and chanting gang slogans was contributed by a member of the public. This time, the video was that of the 08 Hai Lok San gang and men walking on at the front of the funeral procession chanted gang poems loudly. It is unclear where and when this latest video was taken.

This man Apai Izal Kaizoku made insensitive racist remarks about a chinese funeral procession at night. He complain on fb that these "m*therfuc*ers still make noise at this hour". He said that he wasn't interested in their nonsense and claimed that if malays did this, they would be called terrorists.

A student informed his lecturer that his grandmother passed away and needed to excuse himself from lectures. Instead of offering her condolences, the lecturer replied "this is no excuse" and demanded to see proof that his grandma had indeed passed away. Pissed off with her unsympathetic attitude, he offered her 2 types of evidence, either a picture of his dead grandma's ashes or a personal invitation from his dead grandma. This angered the oblivious lecturer who sternly told him not to be sarcastic towards her.

I am really not interested in pursuing this matter (I seriously have better things to do) but I find Marine Parade GRC’s response to our family friend- Ng Sanson’s facebook post extremely unreasonable and I am appalled by their response. There is hence a need for me to clarify the situation from my family’s point of view and to provide accurate first-hand facts regarding this incident.

There is a funeral at the void deck of blk 450E in Tampines. The bereaved family members are already sadden and in grief over the passing of their loved ones. Yet PAP RC Tampines North organise an outdoor movie screening session just beside it blaring in loud volume with its powerful speakers in blatant disregard of the funeral beside it. Please see the photos attached. note: the white lights at the void deck is where the funeral procession is held.

It is with mixed emotions when I wrote this, I don't know what had happened to the kind nature of human beings. Just barely a week after my mum passed on, my dad got sacked by his company (Ric-Tat) for taking too much leave. It is not as if my dad took leave without informing or for personal leisure reasons. He took leave is simply because that hosting the wake is the last thing that he could do for his beloved Wife.

I remembered very clearly on that Sunday night, Low Thia Khiang dropped by unannounced alone. For the record, we did not know him personally. Mr Low paid his respects to my ah ma, signed the condolence book and spent an hour plus talking to my family. No media, no reporters around at all. Just himself. This is what I call sincerity, and for that we are extremely grateful. He wasn't wayang-ing or trying to score publicity points unlike so many other PAP MPs.

Seeking your advice. Recently my Muslim neighbor died, leaving behind his wife, children and many grand children. He was a very nice and friendly man to me and my family since young. During CNY he even gave my baby nephew angpao. He had been battling cancer for a period of time. As a non-Muslim, how can I help? I do not want to accidentally do something insensitive during this period of time but I would like to help them.
