The sight of a parking officer checking his vehicle made a man so angry that he tried to embarrass the officer online.
But his tirade did not sit well with netizens, who criticized him for being xenophobic and a bully.
According to his video, shared on the ROADS.sg Facebook page this morning (October 16), the man had disagreed with the parking officer who was approaching his car, assuming a summons would be issued to him.
The officer, seeing that the man’s car was parked at the loading and unloading dock near Block 630 of a HDB farm, had come to see if the owner had exceeded the allowed time limit.
Despite explaining that he had not issued a subpoena (and was not going to), the man continued to berate him for handing out one. Things heated up and the man demanded to know who the officer’s employer was and what his nationality was.
He said to the officer: “Who asks you to quote? Are you a permanent resident or work permit?[sic]? “
Upon discovering that the officer had a work permit under ST Engineering, he continued with his tirade: “So if you have a work permit, you can still summon people[sic]? “
Instead of putting netizens on his side with his exchange, the man became the one who received the Internet condemnation.
Many commentators criticized him for unnecessarily questioning the officer’s nationality, while others scolded him for being a “great bully.”
