Resident collapsed during argument in 3D

Just three days before Chinese New Year something tragic happened in USJ 11/3 of which many did not know.

The wife of a resident in 3D engaged a Bangladeshi gardener to cut the lawn. After he completed the task he asked for his payment. Not having agreed to a rate beforehand the payment made by the wife was deemed too little. The Bangladeshi then asked for more money to which an argument ensued between the resident's wide and the Bangladeshi.

The argument was soon joined in by the resident himself, a man in his 50s. He chided the Bangladeshi for being so demanding and really gave him a piece of his mind. All this happened at about 1 p.m. in front of his house under the scorching sun. This went on until the Bangladeshi broke down in tears.

Suddenly while all this was happening, the man collapsed onto the ground. He had suffered a heart attack and subsequently an ambulance was called. The amubalance arrived several minutes later to sent the victim to the hospital but he died on the way to the hospital. The Bangladeshi ran away in shock.

So you see the moral of the story is, it is sometimes not worth getting all worked up over a small change. Better to move on and let it go.

Thought we share this with you.
