Actor Zhang Yaodong starts TikTok account, says he is grateful for support for his Tampines zi char stall
After Zhang Yaodong was recently seen serving customers at his seafood zi char (cooked dishes) stall in a Tampines Industrial Park coffee shop, the 47-year-old has received a wave of online support for his latest venture. In response, the former Mediacorp actor, who is nominated in the Top 10 Most Popular Male Artistes category at this year's Star Awards, started a TikTok account and posted his first video on Wednesday (Jun 11) filmed at his stall, where he thanked fans and those around him for their encouragement. In the video, he introduced his stall and acknowledged that several customers had taken pictures of him manning it. 'I'm very thankful for everyone on social media who has been supporting me,' he said. 'I also want to take this opportunity to thank the friends around me who have been encouraging me, and, after seeing last week's reports, want to visit my stall to show their support.' Zhang explained that he does not want to do too much advertising or publicity for his stall as he still wanted to further improve the standard of the food. He also expressed gratitude to his long-time friend Catherine Chew, who had encouraged him to start a TikTok account much earlier. He admitted he was not very active on social media and was initially hesitant to the idea. But her consistent encouragement to let others see 'another side of him' through TikTok eventually moved him. She had also been introducing other bosses to him to collaborate through the platform. Zhang wrote in his caption: 'A new beginning. Thank you for being part of it. That day at the stall was a wake-up call. Your kindness gave me strength to reflect and figure out my next steps. 'The road ahead is mine to walk, and it's a path I've chosen for myself. I'll be sharing this journey with you."

SINGAPORE: Singapore Airlines (SIA) and its low-cost carrier Scoot will increase flight frequencies across their networks and add new destinations following Jetstar Asia's announcement that it will cease operations on Jul 31. In response to CNA's queries, an SIA spokesperson said on Friday (Jun 13) that the ramp-up, subject to regulatory approval, will take effect from August. The closure of Jetstar Asia will see flights on 16 routes terminated, with four routes out of Singapore - Broome (Australia), Labuan Bajo (Indonesia), Okinawa (Japan) and Wuxi (China) - directly affected they are exclusively operated by the airline. Scoot is preparing to step in, with a maximum of four weekly flights to Okinawa and twice weekly flights to Labuan Bajo planned during the northern winter season, which runs from Oct 26 to Mar 28. The airline is also planning to launch daily flights to Medan, Indonesia. Flight schedules will be shared in due course and are subject to regulatory approval and alignment with the group's airline partners, said the spokesperson. "The SIA Group continues to monitor the demand for air travel and adjust our network and capacity as needed." As for other destinations, Scoot intends to boost its frequencies to 28 flights a week to Penang, 39 weekly flights to Bangkok and seven flights a week to Clark, Philippines from August. SIA plans to increase its flights to Manila to 35 times a week, while half of Scoot's 14 weekly flights to the Philippines capital will be using a larger jet. Scoot will further increase its weekly Bangkok flights to 42 during the northern winter season, while flights to Phuket will go up to 21 times weekly. In addition, SIA intends to operate 42 weekly flights to Phuket. Jakarta will also see increased flight frequencies, with 70 SIA flights a week and 35 weekly Scoot flights for that period. Scoot will raise its flights to Bali to 28 times weekly, while SIA will use larger aircraft on more flights to the Indonesian island. SIA will also operate 10 flights a week to Colombo, Sri Lanka, and Scoot will launch 12 flights per week to Surabaya, Indonesia. Jetstar Asia, which first began its operations in December 2004, operates about 180 weekly flights from Changi Airport, Changi Airport Group (CAG) noted. The Singapore-based low-cost subsidiary of Qantas will continue flights for the next seven weeks on a "progressively reduced schedule" before closing for good. The airline carried approximately 2.3 million passengers at Changi Airport in 2024, accounting for around 3 per cent of the airport's total passenger traffic.
