A video showing a man tapping through the gantry at City Hall MRT station to confront another man, only to retreat about 30 seconds later without any action, has gone viral, with some describing the aggressor as “action only”. The clip, originally posted on TikTok by user @afy.suave2 on March 22, clocked more than 500,000 views and 13,100 shares. The video was reposted on The SG Daily Facebook page, garnering more than 317,000 views and 186 shares within two days. At the start of the clip, a man in black is seen going through the gantry before striding belligerently towards another man — who is with a group of friends — seemingly spoiling for a fight.   However, the aggressor’s initial resolve appears to fizzle as he gets closer to the man, who taunts him to strike his face while a burly man from the group stands in between them. Two SMRT staff members then appear, one of whom extends a hand out and appears to discourage the men from engaging.     The would-be brawl gradually turns into a melee involving half-hearted participants as the two men are kept apart.   Halfway through the confrontation, however, the aggressor seemingly shifts his attention to another person in the group, but is quickly pulled away. The video ends with the aggressor looking confused as he is escorted back towards the gantry. It is unclear what led to the confrontation. Stomp has reached out to afy.suave2 for comment. Netizens amused by man who tapped card to enter gantry The SG Daily’s post, titled “Potential brawl at City Hall MRT averted after swift intervention by SMRT staff” has garnered over 300 comments.   Many netizens questioned the lack of action by the SMRT staff members. “What did the staff do? The other two guys did everything!” said a Facebook user. “How come the staff are just standing?” another said. Netizens who were disappointed by the clip’s title chimed in. “Action only. If want to fight, straight chiong liao,” pointed out one netizen. “Aiyo?!! What’s that? Chicken fighting,” another said. Some netizens were amused that the aggressor made the effort to tap his card and enter the station before confronting his target. “Hahahaha. Want to fight but never forget to tap card,” said a Facebook user. “Still he tapped his card to enter the brawl hahaha. Very law-abiding fighter,” another said. “Tapped his game card before entering the arena,” yet another suggested. Stomp has reached out to SMRT for comment.

A 21-year-old Malaysian woman will be charged in court on April 30 for her alleged involvement in an investment scam. On April 28, a security officer from Ang Mo Kio (AMK) Hub alerted the police to a suspicious transaction after spotting a man handing a “large sum of cash” to a woman at the shopping centre via CCTV footage.  Police officers from the Ang Mo Kio Police Division and Anti-Scam Command established that the man was a victim of the investment scam, while the Malaysian woman was believed to be a money mule.   She was subsequently arrested, the police said in a news release on April 29. Investigations revealed that in February, the victim was added to a WhatsApp group promoting investment opportunities, which included a link to a trading platform. He initially transferred $10,000 to a bank account but did not receive any returns.   He later decided to invest more and was instructed by someone in the group to hand over $50,000 in cash to an “investment officer” from the company at AMK Hub.   The police also revealed that the Malaysian woman had been tasked by individuals believed to be part of a transnational scam syndicate to collect cash from scam victims and hand them over to other unknown individuals. The woman will be charged with abetment by conspiracy to assist another to retain benefits from criminal conduct. The offence carries a jail term of up to 10 years, a fine of up to $500,000, or both. Increasing trend of M’sians travelling to S’pore to assist scam syndicates According to the police, this case brings the number of Malaysians arrested since March for facilitating scam syndicates to collect cash, gold and valuables to 20. Scammers and members or recruiters of scam syndicates face mandatory caning of at least six strokes, up to a maximum of 24 strokes. Scam mules who enable scammers by laundering scam proceeds will face discretionary caning of up to 12 strokes. Under the Facility Restriction Framework, individuals involved in mule-related offences may face restrictions on banking services and mobile line subscriptions to prevent further facilitation of scams. The police reminded the public to:  Never transfer cash, jewellery or other valuables to strangers Never leave money or valuables at a location to facilitate subsequent collection Never share device screens or disclose login credentials to anyone

A Malaysian man recently went viral after sharing how a simple plate of rice and taugeh (bean sprouts) ended up costing him RM10.90 and now, he’s opening up about what really happened. Speaking to WeirdKaya, Hamdzaini said the experience caught him completely off guard, especially since he was just trying to keep things simple while dieting. No price displayed, only found out at the counter According to Hamdzaini, there were no visible price labels at the eatery. - Advertisements - Photo via Threads/dezny._ The receipt showed the following breakdown: White rice (1): RM2.80 White rice (½): RM1.50 Vegetables (1 type, 1 scoop): RM6.60 Service tax (6%): RM0.62   - Advertisements - This brought the total to RM10.90 with the taugeh alone costing RM6.60. ‘It didn’t match the price’ When asked if the meal felt worth it, Hamdzaini didn’t hold back.   “It wasn’t okay because it didn’t match the price. I was genuinely shocked when I saw the price as I never expected it at all.”   What made it more surprising was that the eatery wasn’t anything fancy but was just a “normal” location. Photo via Canva Based on his past experience, Hamdzaini said he would usually expect to pay around RM5 to RM6 for a similar meal. He explained that he chose taugeh because he is currently on a diet. - Advertisements - “I already had protein in the morning, so I just went for something light. Despite the experience, I’m still continuing the diet as I have an upcoming event to attend.” As for whether he raised the issue with the shop, Hamdzaini said simply paid and left as he was feeling hungry. Netizens shocked Following the post, many netizens expressed surprise over the price especially the cost of the taugeh. - Advertisements - Some pointed out that RM6.60 for a single scoop of bean sprouts felt unusually high, with one commenting that taugeh is typically much cheaper elsewhere. Others shared their own experiences, claiming they could get similar portions for under RM1 at certain places. There were also lighthearted reactions, with some joking that even “diet food” is no longer affordable, while others said this is why people give up on dieting altogether.   https://weirdkaya.com/i-expected-rm5-rm6-msian-shocked-after-paying-rm10-90-for-rice-taugeh/
