<TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=530 align=center border=0><TBODY><TR><TD>"Why should I reward the pregnant woman for bringing one more life into the world?"
That was what this ugly commuter said when asked to give up his seat to a pregnant woman.
In an email to STOMP today (3 Nov), the STOMPer who came across this disturbing scene said:
“This man refused to give up his seat for a pregnant woman on the MRT yesterday at around 3pm.
“When asked to give up his seat, he said, ‘Life is already full of suffering, why should I reward her (the pregnant woman) for bringing one more life into this world?’
“I took a photo of him after he said that, and he had the cheek to flash a peace sign as I was doing so.
"At this point, the guy seated next to this unreasonable man got up and offered his seat."
