  • PRC Woman Cannot Get Over Own Stupidity On Boarding Pass And Credit Card Rules, Gets Jailed For Hurting SIA Staff

    PRC Woman Cannot Get Over Own Stupidity On Boarding Pass And Credit Card Rules, Gets Jailed For Hurting SIA Staff

    A woman from China threw a signage at a Singapore Airlines (SIA) ticketing staff member after she failed to get a boarding pass at Changi Airport for a flight bought through a family member’s credit card.

    The 25cm by 6cm signage hit the victim’s face and she suffered an open wound at the nose and left eyebrow, respectively.

    Yesterday, Chang Lihui, 33, was given 24 days’ jail for hurting Ms Sharin Chan Suet Gek, 30, by doing an act so rashly as to endanger her personal safety on June 11.

    Deputy Public Prosecutor Teo Lu Jia said Chang had gone to Changi Airport that evening to collect her SIA ticket after she had used a family member’s credit card to book it.

    Ms Chan checked and confirmed that Chang had an air ticket booked under her name.

    But she found the details on the passport did not match the credit card details.

    When asked, Chang replied that the credit card belonged to a family member in Beijing. She could not verify who the person was nor whether the owner had consented to the purchase.

    Chang asked for the boarding pass, saying that she had called the airline earlier to book the ticket.

    But Ms Chan said she was unable to issue the boarding pass as Chang could not verify who owned the credit card.

    Ms Chan advised her to inform the owner to contact the SIA office in China to confirm that the owner had consented to the purchase.

    Chang said she did not have a mobile phone with her and that she was unable to reach the credit card owner. She shouted and used abusive words against Ms Chan, said DPP Teo.

    Ms Chan then sought the help of her male colleague, who told Chang that the airline could not accede to her request.

    Chang refused to listen and scolded him. He then left the victim alone with Chang.

    Chang asked for a refund, but Ms Chan said that it would take two to three weeks to process her request.

    Chang became angrier and pointed a finger at Ms Chan, scolding her at the same time.

    Ms Chan moved backwards and told her supervisor over the phone about the situation.

    Chang then picked up a “Counter Closed” sign and forcefully threw it towards Ms Chan. It hit her face and she screamed in pain, bleeding from cuts on her left eyebrow and nose bridge.

    Chang was arrested at her hotel the next day.

    An Institute of Mental Health psychiatrist said she has schizophrenia, but was not of unsound mind at the time of the offence.

    DPP Teo had asked for a sentence of at least three weeks’ jail, given the extent and severity of the victim’s injuries, potential serious harm and targeting of a vulnerable spot.

  • SQ Girl Shows Why SIA Is The Only Way To Fly

    SQ Girl Shows Why SIA Is The Only Way To Fly

    *Updated: The kind lady is none other than Kren Choong Shi Qi !

    Through a 12 hour flight from Singapore to Frankfurt, I made a friend. ?

    Draga is a 92 year old lady who grew up in Slovenia and moved to Australia with her husband in the 70’s. Ever since her husband passed on 5 years ago, she makes an annual pilgrimage to Slovenia to hang out with her sister for a couple of months.

    Traveling alone at that age can be tough and while she is helped by the ground staff armed with a wheelchair, her entire ride on the plane can be quite challenging.

    Unable to figure out any technology, she sits there without any movies or entertainment to pass time. Even to the point of being unable to turn on the light when she needed it desperately to inject insulin into herself or to prick her finger when checking her glucose level.

    I befriended her when she needed help with unlocking the tray as the clip was a little stuck. Saw her rummaging through her bag to figure out the glucose count machine in the dark and that reminded me of a time when my late grandfather asked me to sit down on a bench with a strange old uncle at K-Mart who was about to inject his stomach with insulin.

    With Draga, she reached a point in the flight where I noticed her visibly shaking. Concerned, I asked if she was alright. She mentioned that she had accidentally shot too much insulin and because of that, her blood sugar had dropped to a level where it could get dangerous.

    Trying to give her as much diabetes-appropriate food to slowly bring up her sugar levels, a Singapore Airlines stewardess, Karen Choong, came by telling us to switch off the overhead lights and instead use the lights located by the tv screen. When I explained that we were trying to get Draga’s sugar levels up, Karen suggested eating an apple. Draga could not bite into the hard apple and I was touched when Karen excused herself to grab a pair of gloves and a knife to cut the apple into bite sized pieces.

    On her knees in her SQ kebaya, she patiently assisted Draga even wanting to feed Draga. Draga shyly declined and was appreciative of Karen’s kind gesture.

    Draga was happy that at least the crew cared for her well being. Caught by surprise by Karen’s care and concern for her, she felt embarrassed as she did not want to be seen as a liability to the crew. They had other passengers to care for and Draga didn’t want to take up any more of their time, especially Karen’s.

    Knowing that I was helping Draga too, Karen came by my seat to tell me quietly that if I noticed Draga’s health deteriorating, please call for her immediately. She took note of our seats and I assumed it was to alert her to rush over if our call button lighted up.

    Flying with other airlines in the past, I’m not so sure if other crews would have gone to such lengths to ensure the comfort of their passengers.

    Karen did not have to do what she did. Yet, she took it upon herself to monitor Draga once in a while to see if there was anything else she could provide to make Draga’s flight experience a better one.

    If anyone could share and tag Karen Choong who is seen in this picture, I would appreciate it. She has acted out of such kindness without expecting anything in return. She, at least, deserves to read about how her actions have affected Draga’s life and mine too. ??

    Thank you
