Babies are small, precious, and vulnerable. They should be placed in the care of their mothers so they can get the nutrition and protection they need.
Unfortunately, one baby boy looks to be abandoned.
Residents in Tai Keng Gardens – a housing estate near Upper Paya Lebar Road – found the infant on his own outdoors.
According to TODAY Online, police said they received a call for help at 7 Tai Keng Gardens at 7.46pm yesterday (27 Jul).
Paramedics were deployed to the scene to attend to the baby boy.
Thankfully, they found him in stable condition with no injuries in sight. They immediately transported the baby to KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital.
Police are currently looking into the case. We hope that they’ll be able to track down the person responsible for this soon.
No matter the reason behind this shocking discovery, babies are innocent lives that deserve care and protection. We’re thankful that the baby boy in question survived safe and sound.
