The man in the orange shirt continues shouting at his adversary, after which the video ends.
Fight took place between owners of durian stall & neighbouring vendor
According to Shin Min Daily News, the incident involved a father-son duo who ran the durian stall and the owner of a neighbouring stall which sold fruits and vegetables.
A staff working at the fruit and vegetable stall revealed that more than 10 customers were queueing at the durian stall, blocking the former’s suppliers.
In light of the situation, the owner of the fruit and vegetable stall confronted the pair from the durian stall.

An employee from the durian stall told Shin Min Daily that the man in white was the owner and the one in orange was the owner’s father.
He also pointed out that the confrontation captured in the video was the second between both parties.

“We were worried, so we notified the [owner of the durian stall] to come down,” they said, clarifying that the owner was not present during the first confrontation.
