Food centres are usually bustling with activity in the heartlands of Singapore. They are places where friends and neighbours come together to have meals after a long day.

However, not all is rosy as a fight at Chong Pang Food Centre on Monday (18 Jan) left a 61-year-old man bleeding heavily.

Resolve disputes peacefully instead of resorting to violence

Food centres are where families and friends often have meals and it’s a scary thought that violence can occur at such a place.

We hope that Singaporeans will be able to settle disputes peacefully, especially if they take place in a communal area.
