A group of tourists from China have accused a bus driver from a local travel agency for leaving them stranded in Little India, following an argument over the purchase of souvenirs last Friday (Aug 16). A nearly two-minute-long video reposted to TikTok shows the tourists claiming that the tour bus driver had scolded them. It cuts to another clip showing their luggage being unloaded from the vehicle. The last clip shows them standing on a pavement along Race Course Road as a woman, presumably a tourist, makes a phone call to relay their situation to another person. The netizen who originally posted the now-deleted video had said there were over 20 people on that bus, reported Shin Min Daily News. According to her, the bus driver was selling souvenirs to passengers. However, he was dissatisfied with the low sales of the items and refused to let a tourist with high blood pressure board the bus to retrieve her medicine, scolding the group for not buying the items.

SINGAPORE – StarHub users in many areas across Singapore were unable to access their broadband and TV services for a few hours on the evening of Aug 20, with the issue being progressively resolved only after 9pm. In response to queries from The Straits Times, StarHub said the issue stemmed from problems with its domain name system (DNS) servers.  The DNS is like a phonebook that matches domain names, such as those in website URLs, to internet protocol addresses, which are strings of numbers that identify devices on the internet. “We apologise for the inconvenience caused by the disruption to broadband services experienced by some of our customers... This disruption may have caused slowness or interruptions to both broadband and TV services,” said a StarHub spokesperson. To restore full service, StarHub advised customers to reboot their routers. If internet services are restored but television services remain down, they should restart their set-top box or television box.
