Kind Construction Worker Holds Umbrella To Shelter People Stuck At Bus Stop During Heavy Rain

The weather in Singapore may be hot most of the time, but we can expect afternoon showers on some days.

Those travelling outdoors may be forced to seek shelter at places like bus stops to wait out the rain.

On 5 May, an Instagram post detailed an encounter of a kind construction worker who offered his umbrella for commuters stuck at a bus stop during a downpour.

The lady he reached out to was so touched that she took photos of the kind man and posted them online.

The worker then held the umbrella up, making sure she was covered completely and sheltered her out of the bus stop.

After escorting her, he turned back and helped others who were stuck too.

Some heroes wear raincoats, not capes

In a difficult time where workers from all walks of life are being maligned for different reasons, it’s heartwarming to see some positive news on social media.

It might just be true that not all heroes wear capes. Some of them might be wearing raincoats near a bus stop in Ang Mo Kio.

We’re glad to see such selfless acts committed. Faith in humanity, restored.
