Maid sacrificed for 1 yr old baby.. touching
Re: Maid sacrificed for 1 yr old baby.. touching
I'm sorry to be the "bad guy" here, but did the SMRT bus speed at her, or did she make a bad judgement in crossing the road at that time??? Jaywalking with a baby?adhdadhd wrote:http://news.asiaone.com/News/AsiaOne%2B ... 12478.html
I also read that she wasn't carrying the 1yo, but the 1yo was walking in front of her, so when she was knocked down, she'd just pushed the 1yo forward.MMM wrote:I read that she was crossing the road with her employers. Not sure if they were all jaywalking???
Scary lah - 1yo cross road walking instead of being carried. And the parents were behind.
Aiyah, the whole incident sounds like one big accident waiting to happen. But then again, I read that the bus RAN the red light?!!!! *tsk* *faint*.
Nope, what I read from omy (wanbao) was the maid was carrying the 1 yr old. At the critical moment, she threw the bb out.phankao wrote:I also read that she wasn't carrying the 1yo, but the 1yo was walking in front of her, so when she was knocked down, she'd just pushed the 1yo forward.MMM wrote:I read that she was crossing the road with her employers.

It's interesting how different newspapers report vastly different facts. Per wanbao, her employers gave $10K to her mother. The agent (should be Indonesian side) drove car for 10 hours to personally inform the maid's death to her family. I suppose that's the cause of the delay in informing the maid's family.LLX04 wrote:The new paper reported that her employers did not inform the maid's family of her accident or death - 3 days later. The agent of the maid is trying to raise $10,000 for the deceased's family.
I felt so sad for her family which lost a daughter and a bread-winner.
