RECENTLY, a refreshing occurrence happened on a Singapore MRT train when a passenger unintentionally spilled their drink on the floor.
This incident serves as a reminder to many Malaysians that our neighbours aren’t as ‘kiasu’ as we may imagine.
An occupied MRT carriage showed the spilled drink on the floor.
Instead of choosing to ignore it, nearly every passenger on the coach instantly made the decision to assist in cleaning up the mess without saying a word.
The spirit of camaraderie was captured on camera by foreign resident in Singapore, @rika705, on TikTok.
In the brief 24-second clip, nearly every passenger spontaneously retrieved their tissues and assisted in tidying up the mess.
There were even those who gave up the tissues they had to the folks who were already scrubbing the drink spill on the ground.
At the time the post was written, the video had now received over 1,000 likes and over 98,000 views.
The commuters’ compassion earned praise online, with many netizens applauding their spirit of togetherness.
