An online user has shared a warm story, claiming that an individual returned a lost wallet with a few hundred dollars inside, as well as all the cards.
The Christmas spirit of community and goodwill seems to be out and about in Singapore, especially after an online user shared a personal experience in an online news forum on Tuesday (Dec 6). “Went out for a run this morning and 10km later realised my wallet had managed to fall out of my pocket,” the netizen wrote. “I walked back the last 2km or so of the run without seeing it and realised it would be very unlikely to find it that way. Went home and put blocks on my cards, and applied for a replacement IC.
6pm tonight I was on a work call when someone rang the doorbell. He said his employee had found the wallet this morning outside their business and passed it to him. There were a few hundred dollars untouched in the wallet, all my cards there, and he refused to take a reward for his effort going out of his way to drop it off.”
The writer was deeply moved by the kindness, and said, “Some days you just have to wonder at how great people in this city are. Thank you, Singapore!”
This news has inspired many others to share similar experiences in Singapore. From laptops to phones, many reported the good-heartedness of individuals who have returned their misplaced belongings.
