MR DAVID CHRISTODOULOU: ‘Having arrived in
Singapore 15 years ago, I have grown to love the place. The food is
fantastic and the taxi drivers are the best in the world. This was
reinforced on Tuesday night when I jumped into a Comfort Cab from
Siglap to head into town, and destined to meet a long-lost school
buddy.
In my haste, I left my wallet at home. Instead of reacting
angrily because I could not pay for the fare, the cabby, Mr Soh
brushed it off and offered me $100 for my night out. Needless to
say, I was astounded and could not thank him enough.
His kindness is something that will remain as one of my fondest
memories of Singapore. Thank you, Mr Soh, your deed will be
remembered as a lesson in kindness by me and my family.’
