“I'm new in Singapore, I don't know is this common or is this the SOP of bringing elderly down for a walk or fresh air here,” the netizen wrote
SINGAPORE: A newcomer to Singapore said she was shocked upon seeing an elderly man left alone in a wheelchair while a helper sat nearby, appearing to surf on her phone.
Facebook user Ho Wei Sheng wrote on the COMPLAINT SINGAPORE page on Wednesday that she had seen the man at 421 Hougang. “I’m new in Singapore, I don’t know is this common or is this the SOP of bringing elderly down for a walk or fresh air here.” She clarified, however, that she does not know the family of the elderly man, and neither does she know who the maid works for.
Yet she added that this is not the first time she has seen this, adding, “It hurts me if this is happening to my elderly. Same spot, same thing the maid is doing. Playing, swiping her phone. Same scenery the uncle is seeing, the bicycles. If this is your elderly, this is your maid, I strongly suggest you to stop hiring this maid.”The post has since been shared and commented on widely.Why blame the helper? Want to blame pls blame his own children not taking care of him.
