injury

An argument between two drivers over a parking space at a carpark ended up with a bruised face and a near-miss “accident” for one.

The incident is said to had happened at carpark of Parkland Green, East Coast Park on 30 May (Saturday) around 6:10pm.

Mr Yak was waiting for a parking lot after dropping off his wife and kids at the car park when a silver colored car came driving in against the flow of traffic.

The car then parked in front of the space that Mr Yak was waiting for with his hazard light turned on. As a result, Mr Yak drove his car forward, in front of the silver colored car and wound down his car window to confront the driver.

The driver in the silver colored car is said to be a middle-aged Caucasian, about 35 years old. And there were two kids seated at the back of the car.

According to Mr Yak, the driver came down from his car and starting scolding him, “an idiot for being slow” resulting in an argument between the two. All of a sudden, the driver punched him through the car’s window and walked back to his car.

The force of the punch was so great that it broke Mr Yak’s glasses and resulted in bleeding of his face.

Despite being stunned from the punch, Mr Yak hurried down from his car and tried to take down the other car’s license plate number.

“I came down from the car and tried to take down his car number. I stood in front of his car and he just stepped on the accelerator, trying to run me over while escaping.” said Mr Yak.

He added, “Eyewitness told me his car plate was SGC9154K, but I am not 100%,” There was no video camera on his dashboard to record the incident.

Mr Yak was subsequently treated at Changi Hospital for his injuries.

Mr Yak recalled that there were some people around the area, as the car park was situated just in front of the Starbucks and St Marc cafe. He is, however, uncertain if there was any closed-circuit surveillance in the area as there was no electronic gantry at the carpark.

He has since made a police report on his assault and beseech for eyewitness of the incident to come forward and give an account of the incident. People with information can write into TOC at [email protected] to link up with Mr Yak.

TOC has written to the police on the reported case and will update here when they have replied.

换班时小歇却再也没醒过来 68岁德士司机猝死

一名德士司机在换班期间小歇,不料却再也醒不过来,同事正准备交班却发现叫不醒他,立即叫救护车,而医护人员抵达后发现宣告不治。 据报道指出,意外发生在周一(1日)晚间8点左右,裕廊东22街第229座组屋的停车场,死者为68岁的杨天福,育有两名儿子。 据悉,杨天福的36岁长子杨荣春表示,家人是在当天晚上8时左右接获消息。杨荣春表示,母亲曾在晚上7时左右拨电给父亲,想确认他是否会回家用餐,但是父亲没接电话,家人也不以为意,以为只是在换班而错过了电话。 直至晚上8时左右,母亲接获一通陌生人的电话。杨春荣表示,“妈妈说是换班司机打电话来,说父亲一动不动地躺在德士里,当时换班司机已立即叫了救护车,也请我们尽快过去”。 在抵达现场后,医护人员也在现场施救,但是杨天福已回天乏术。 杨荣春表示,父親生前是患有糖尿病,但除此之外,并无太多病痛,而近期也曾抱怨自己身体出现肩膀酸痛,但目前也未曾确定是否与猝死有关。

150万个资外泄“无经济价值”? 金管局慎重 促银行强化验证程序

上周,新保集团惊爆150万病患个人资料被骇外泄,是我国历来遭受最严重的网络攻击行动。引起民众担忧网络隐私存漏洞。 调查显示此次骇客攻击经过精密策划,不像业余犯罪分子,全球只有为数不多国家的先进技术才能做到。网络安全局长许智贤说却表示,泄露的都是“基本统计数据”,无需过于担忧。 据一些过往案例,网安局称将监视网路上或一些不知名网站是否出现可疑迹象,追踪骇客。“根据我们的专业经验这些被盗取的数据没有很高经济价值,较不可能会被泄露上网。” 不过,新加坡金融管理局在昨日(24日)发表文告,慎重要求所有金融机构在采取更严格的用户身份验证程序。当局指出,所有银行已受指示,要求用户登录账号,需进行双重验证(PIN和一次性密码)。 金管局要求金融机构避免依赖基本信息(姓名、身份证号、地址、性别、种族和出生日)来验证用户,提防不法分子可能以这些资讯假冒客户。 金融机构受促实行更进一步的验证程序,如一次性密码,PIN 码、指纹认证和最后转账户口和日期等。 金管局也要求所有金融机构立即进行风险评估,在他们提供的服务中是否有发生如新保集团被骇的可能,避免更多用户个资被盗取,用在不法用途。 金管局网络安全官陈耀胜指出,该局将于各金融机构紧密配合,提供牢固的网络防御,让用户放心进行网络转账。同时,他也呼吁民众保管个人密码,定时清理上网记录等,若发现可疑活动,应立即通知银行。 “民众可浏览网站gosafeonline和SingCert,学习更多网络安全知识。” 虽然网安局长许智贤表达“无需担忧”,但如今已牵动金管局发声明,要求所有金融机构采更严格验证程序,说明个资外泄可大可小,不排除不法分子假冒身份套取更多利益的可能性。只要涉及财富,就有可能孕育网络罪案。 全球网安第一破功…
