There are crooks but there are also folks with hearts of gold.

SINGAPORE - A couple rushing their feverish son to hospital were touched by a random act of kindness shown to them by a Grab driver, who refused to accept money for the ride. 

 

In a Facebook post on Tuesday (Feb 2), Mohamed Shahreza said "this kind soul", not only drove them from Yishun to KK Women's and Children's Hospital along Bukit Timah Road but also refused to accept the fare which amounted to $18.

 

Mr Mohamed added that he and his wife were "touched by his care and concern for our son throughout the journey", and "grateful for his high sense of morality".

 

The driver was identified in the post as David Ang Zhi Hao. According to Mr Mohamed, Mr Ang told the couple to treat the free ride as "an angbao for your baby, and may he get well soon with great health".

 

Mr Mohamed wrote: "At this point, We were speechless and couldn't thank him more. (Okay we felt like crying... seriously).

 

"In today's world we do still see good people around us and we are blessed to have him in this small part of our life"

A senior civil servant friend once remarked that in life we almost always focused too much on the negativities which makes it even more depressing.

 

Try look for the positive aspects, he urged.

 

Cheng hu lang tio si cheng hu lang say things also got meaning one.

 

For that I agree with him wholeheartedly.

 

That said, most almost other things I argue with him till min qi qi :omg: especially on the MIW govt :D

Once you start the act of giving, people who received and appreciated your act will start giving too.

Great news! Especially since CNY is around the year and these drivers got no bonus, he is still so willing to "give".

 

I hope he receives many times more later!

 

What goes around comes around!:grin:

Is this a publicity stunt? It's good investment. Forgoing $18 can get so much good publicity. Cheap siah.

 

I used to think "no free lunch in this world". But dan again competition for these companies are heating up. So trying bery hard to believe this actually happened out of good will. Still trying... [:p]
