Worker at Little India MRT station helps passenger in need

A worker at Little India MRT station went the extra mile to help a passenger in need – and was surprised when she returned the favour.Stomper Silan said a Myanmarese woman had approached him at his workplace at the MRT station's passenger service centre. He recounted:"She said she was there to visit her boss in hospital and was going back when she realised that her EZ-Link card did not have enough value to take the train. She had also forgotten to bring her wallet.

"When I asked her where she stayed, she said Tiong Bahru. I took her EZ-Link card and topped it up with $10 from my bank card, then passed it back to her." Silan said he does this for passengers in need often, adding:"Normally, I just tell them to return the money when they come to Little India again, though no one usually does."I don't take it as a big loss because I am not going to be rich with $5 or $10."The next day, I received a call from colleagues that someone had been looking for me since morning and that they had told the person that they could find me from 3pm onwards as I was on the night shif
