Others agreed that the lack of cameras filming her actions proved her genuine intentions.

Recently, TikTok star Ng Ming Wei, or @mingweirocks on social media, posted a video of him tipping cab drivers a total of S$5,000.

Ng thought of the initiative to hand over S$500 each to 10 cab drivers to help them tide through the Covid-19 pandemic.

Many of the drivers responded to the amount with shock and immediately refused the sum as they found it difficult to accept the money.

After Ng insisted, they eventually accepted and thanked him for his kind gesture. One driver was even moved to tears after receiving the tip. /TISG
