Don't berate my volunteers, says Tampines MP Baey Yam Keng after man makes a scene over free haircut

Never look a gift horse in the mouth — and certainly don't harass the person giving you a free haircut. A man started making trouble over a free haircut he received in Tampines last month, said MP Baey Yam Keng on Wednesday (Dec 4). In his Facebook post, Baey shared that although the uncle wasn't a familiar face, volunteers welcomed anyone who needed a trim. «He was unhappy that his sides were not balanced and told our volunteer in charge that the haircut is ugly,» Baey wrote. «He made a scene, saying that we are not doing a good job and that as organisers, we should have scrutinised our hairdressers.  »He went on to confront Aunty Jenny who cut [his hair] for him, saying that she should retire and not give such lousy service." Aunty Jenny, 82, is one of the pioneers of the decade-old community project that offered residents free haircuts, Baey shared. She is a regular volunteer hairdresser who brings along homemade snacks to share with fellow volunteers. While he wasn't able to attend the session in person, the MP said that other residents and hairdressers chided the man.

2 new e-payment methods launching in mid-2025 as Singapore phases out cheques

SINGAPORE — Users of retail and corporate cheques will have two new electronic payment methods as part of Singapore's move to phase out cheques. From mid-2025, they can use electronic deferred payment system EDP and EDP+ to do so, the Association of Banks in Singapore (ABS) and the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) said on Dec 5. EDP and EDP+ will be available via the digital banking platforms of seven banks, namely DBS, OCBC, UOB, Citibank, HSBC, Maybank and Standard Chartered Bank. The main difference between EDP and EDP+ lies in when funds are deducted from the payer's account. For EDP, funds are deducted upon presentment by the payee, while for EDP+, funds are deducted immediately upon issuance. MAS and ABS said EDP will address the need for deferred payments — done by way of post-dated cheques today. EDP+ is a variation of EDP that provides greater certainty of payment — like cashier's orders do now.
