Eat too full: Yishun pet shop manager fined S$2,000 for fighting with Covid-19 safe distancing ambassador

[Johnrambo]

SINGAPORE — A 48-year-old pet shop manager was fined S$2,000 on Wednesday (June 9) over a scuffle with a safe distancing ambassador, who had spotted him allegedly not wearing a face mask in the store.

He Jun, who at the time worked at Little Pets Kingdom in Yishun Central 1, pleaded guilty to committing affray.

Another charge of using vulgarities at the other man was taken into consideration for sentencing. He was not charged with breaching any Covid-19 laws.

The court heard that on Dec 16 last year, Aloysius Hoe Wei Peng, 40, a safe distancing ambassador under the Housing and Development Board, and a female colleague were carrying out their duties near the pet shop.

Both of them were wearing lanyards with passes that identified their jobs.

Hoe then told his colleague to take a photograph of the pet shop as he had seen He Jun without a mask on in the shop.

When she complied and He Jun saw this, he approached her outside the shop and asked her why she had taken a photo. Hoe then asked him: “What’s wrong?”

Both men began arguing and Hoe kicked He Jun, who retaliated by throwing a stone lion statue from a nearby table at him. The size of the statue was not disclosed in court documents.

The SDA faces charges over an earlier incident before he was appointed as an SDA.

"Hoe has been charged over the incident. His case is pending and he will return to court on June 29.

He also faces charges over an earlier incident on Feb 3 last year, where he allegedly stepped on a man’s spectacles at Waterway Point mall in Punggol and kicked him. This was before he took on the job as a safe distancing agent."

PAP likes to hire thugs to be SDAs huh?

 

[laksaboy]

The attitudes of some of those 'ambassadors' are quite deplorable. If they get beaten up they don't deserve any sympathy.

Just as flies move towards rubbish, I presume thugs or assholes naturally gravitate towards the 'ambassador' jobs. They get an endorphin rush having that power bestowed upon them.

should whack them with dolphins, simi endorphin rush

 

[glockman]

Does anybody have a photo of Aloysius Hoe Wei Peng, the safe distancing ambassador? I don't want to upset him and get kicked by him, if I should ever see him in public. I bruise easy and don't heal quickly.

saw one who acted like a big time 'arm-pai'. bullying a waiter in a cafe,
these fuckers deserved to be whacked big time

There should be a universal law that physical attacks done in self-defence should be legal. So only the guy who struck first is guilty of assault.

Why is he not sent to Phoon Chiu Yoke??

Cannot be. Pre-emptive strike is most effective.

I'm not sure what those siao on ambassadors are trying to prove... do they sincerely believe that being gung-ho 'helps to keep SG safe'? Or it's just an euphoric power trip to overcompensate for their sad pathetic lives?

Just serve and fuck off. It's a dead end job, and trust me, you don't want to mention that you were once a SDA in your CV.

There's an 'Aloysius Hoe' on both Twitter and IG. Same person, but not sure if he's the same guy as the 'ambassador' in the article.

What's the point of harrassing local healthy Singaporeans about Covid when the real problem is the gahmen letting in infected foreigners into the country ?

what kind of loser will be a SDA at 40?

 

[zeddy]

Pathetic cretins like these SDAs who used to be jobless bums as recently as last year. You bestow them some power, they going to behave like Kempeitai thugs towards the peasants.

These people should not be named as SD ambassadors. They are so bigheaded at being called ambassadors and simply can't handle the realities that they are nothing more than temporary rat-catchers. Nobody respects them but people still comply because they don't want to be caught and punished, that's all.
