Jurong stall owner apologises for durian fight by giving away $2,000 in free fruits to residents

[melissa.koh]

This stall owner has moved from being involved in a fruit fight to giving out free fruits - and his customers certainly aren't rejecting his generosity.

The fruit seller in Jurong West has apologised for a fight that occurred last Thursday (July 11), giving out $2,000 in free fruits to residents to make amends, Shin Min Daily News reported on Monday (July 15).

The fight, which saw one party flinging a durian at another - and one man reciprocating by brandishing a knife - had been caused by a dispute over a queue that formed outside a durian shop, obstructing traffic to a different stall near Block 964, Jurong West Street 91.

It's admirable of the stall owner to take responsibility for the incident and turn things around by providing free fruits to residents. This act of kindness can help restore goodwill within the community.

I agree, have you been shown kindness personally?

Sure have! As a financial analyst, most of my clients have been extremely understanding, especially when I first returned to work after my maternity leave. They were patient with my juggeling schedule as a new mother and even helped me out with recommendations for childcare.
