ComfortDelGro to discipline taxi driver who threw wheelchair but reveals passengers were relatives of drive
Photo: SGRV FB SINGAPORE: ComfortDelGro has confirmed that it will be taking disciplinary action against a taxi driver who was caught on camera throwing a wheelchair onto the ground and manhandling a passenger during a heated incident that unfolded in Redhill on July 18. The company, however, also indicated that the passengers did not pay the fare and were relatives of the driver The incident, which took place at about 1.30pm in front of Block 71 Redhill Road, was captured on a vehicle's dashcam and uploaded by SG Road Vigilante to Facebook on Friday (19 July), quickly going viral. In the footage, a blue ComfortDelGro taxi is seen stationary at a zebra crossing with its left-side doors already open. A red plastic bag is thrown out of the vehicle, shortly before a passenger alights to pick it up. Moments later, the female driver steps out, opens the boot, and hurls a folded wheelchair onto the pavement. A second passenger exits the vehicle, and the first returns briefly to retrieve another item. The cab driver then slams the doors shut and is seen physically pulling one of the passengers out of her way before shutting the boot and getting back into the driver's seat. The dashcam footage was captioned: 'Not to put her job at risk, but her attitude towards them was truly unacceptable. The old lady was crying, by the way.' A ComfortDelGro spokesperson has since confirmed to Stomp that the company is aware of the video and has launched an investigation. 'The well-being and respectful treatment of all our passengers is paramount,' the spokesperson said, 'The actions of the cabby are unacceptable and do not reflect the professional standards we uphold.' The company clarified that the passengers involved were not fare-paying customers, but relatives of the driver. 'Our investigations reveal that the incident was a personal dispute involving the cabby and her own family members, who were being ferried in the vehicle at the time,' the spokesperson added. 'Nonetheless, we take a serious view of any misconduct by our cabbies. We will be addressing this matter internally with the cabby concerned and will take appropriate disciplinary action in accordance with our company policies.' ComfortDelGro has not disclosed the specific disciplinary measures being considered.

11 best stalls at Redhill Food Centre to keep on your red-dar
One of the loveliest things I've come to realise is that heartland hawker centres are home to some of the best eats islandwide. Case in point: Redhill Food Centre. Nondescript as it is, this food centre in the heart of Redhill is packed with a star-studded line-up of stalls that have made it onto the Michelin Guide, best-of listicles and even the ex-PM's radar (read on and you'll see). Here are the 11 best stalls at Redhill Food Centre that'll keep you returning time and again. 1. Fu Ming Cooked Food (#01-49) Despite its unassuming name, Fu Ming Cooked Food serves up a mean plate of fried carrot cake that many foodies swear by. Don't believe us? Its Michelin Bib Gourmand should do the convincing. Keep an eye out for their iconic ultra-retro signboard, adorned with hilarious stickers of a drooling Mickey Mouse. I'm already tempted to swear that no Redhill Food Centre trip is complete without their Black Carrot Cake (S$3/S$4/S$5). This glorious dish features soft, supple radish cake cubes stir-fried with eggs, a generous amount of chye poh and plenty of sweet black sauce — which gets drizzled on once more before serving. The result is a perfectly sweet-savoury dish, rich with wok hei that keeps you going for bite after bite. The White Carrot Cake (S$3/S$4/S$5) isn't too shabby either, with a pronounced smokiness balanced out by umami chye poh bits. Their meat-loaded Bak Zhang (S$2) and Nyonya Zhang (S$2) are worth a try, too. +65 9641 0565 Wed to Fri: 11am – 7.30pm Sat: 12.30pm – 8pm Sun: 7.30am – 1.30pm Closed on Mon & Tue 2. Hong Seng Curry Rice (#01-74) Sometimes, happiness really is as simple as a plate of wonderfully messy Hainanese curry rice. You can get your daily dose from Hong Seng Curry Rice, which serves up an indulgent rendition made with love. Founded by a family matriarch to feed her family of 7, this stall has called Redhill Food Centre home since 1995. The stall offers a selection of 10 curry rice sets,with the most popular options including their signature Fried Chicken (S$4.70), classic Braised Pork Belly (S$5.50) and the fuss-free Value Meal (S$5.30) — piled with essentials like pork chop, braised cabbage, fried egg and a generous ladle of curry. Hong Seng's curry gravy is undoubtedly the star of the show, with its moreish aroma and luscious consistency that pairs well with — trust us — everything. Another must-try is the crispy pork chop, crusted with a layer of cream crackers and deep-fried to golden perfection. +65 9876 2288 Mon to Thu: 11am – 8.30pm Fri: 11am – 4pm Closed on Sat & Sun Facebook | Instagram 3. Yan Fried Bee Hoon (#01-19) Ah, here's the one with the stamp of approval. Yan Fried Bee Hoon, more famously known as Eng Kee Chicken Wings, shot to fame in 2014 when it became the subject of SM Lee Hsien Loong's patronage. Yes, their chicken wings are so good he had to get them personally. And if that's not enough to pique your interest, I don't know what will. While this may look like your run-of-the-mill economic bee hoon stall, its perpetual queues show it's anything but. Start with a base of Bee Hoon (S$1.20/S$1.40) and Kway Teow Mee (S$1.20/S$1.40), then go wild with the usual suspects: Luncheon Meat (S$0.70), Seafood Ngoh Hiang (S$1.20), Egg (S$0.70), Xiao Xi Dao Fishcake (S$0.80) and perhaps some greens like Long Bean (S$0.90) and Cabbage (S$0.80). Of course, if you've only got space for one item, let it be the Chicken Wing (S$1.60). These fried delights boast a crispy golden brown skin that gives way to tender, well-seasoned flesh — one bite and you'll see why customers order them by the 10s and 20s. Mon to Fri: 11am – 7.30pm Sat: 9.30am – 6pm Closed on Sun Facebook | Instagram | Website 4. Redhill Pork Porridge (#01-90) You can always count on a simple bowl of piping hot porridge to perk you up when you're down, and that's exactly what Redhill Pork Porridge offers. This Michelin-recognised stall is a crowd favourite for the comforting dish, with folks in the area waking up as early as the crack of dawn for a bowl. It also closes by the early afternoon, so be sure to arrive early to secure your share. The menu is straightforward as can be, with just one offering: their titular Pork Porridge, priced at an affordable S$4 and S$5 for Regular and Large portions respectively. Great news if you like your porridge with a little bite — the grains in this rendition hold their form, although it's simmered long enough for each spoonful to hold a robust porky flavour. It comes studded with an ample portion of ingredients, including liver, tender pork balls and pork slices, along with several ginger slices that lend a welcome kick. Oh, don't forget to add on an Egg (S$0.50) for that extra pop of creaminess, plus some doughy You Tiao (S$1.20) for good measure and a satisfying textural contrast. Mon to Sat: 6am – 1pm Sun: 6.30am – 1pm Facebook | Instagram 5. Hock Shun Traditional Home Made Curry (#01-66) Yes, we already have a curry spot on this guide, but I had to include Hock Shun Traditional Home Made Curry. Their incredible speciality of old-school homemade chicken curry oozes flavour as much as it does nostalgia; too good to exclude, if you ask me. What's most interesting about this stall is that their gobsmacking curry comes bubbling in claypots, served in 5 variations: Curry Chicken Drumstick (S$5.50), Curry Chicken Wing (S$5), Curry Veg (S$4), Assam Curry Fish (S$6) and Curry Yong Tau Foo (S$4.50). We highly recommend the Curry Chicken Drumstick, which features a huge, fall-off-the-bone-tender chicken drumstick and a sizable hunk of breast meat, all cloaked in that luscious, thoroughly aromatic curry. For something with a little more variety, the Yong Tau Foo version comes packed with a variety of fish paste-stuffed items that'll certainly keep each bite interesting. You can also complete your meal with a carb of choice from 3 options: White Rice (S$0.80), Turmeric Rice (S$0.80) and Bread (S$0.80) — the latter of which we recommend sopping up the gravy with for maximum satisfaction. +65 9145 8876 Sun, Mon, Wed to Fri: 9am – 9pm Closed on Tue & Sat 6. Bak Kee Teochew Satay Bee Hoon (#01-40) Teochew satay bee hoon is a delicious yet sorely underrated dish — and a pretty rare find these days at that. Lucky for you, Bak Kee Teochew Satay Bee Hoon is still going strong as one of Singapore's best spots for a solid plate, and its snaking queues agree wholeheartedly. Their titular Satay Bee Hoon (S$4.50/S$5.50/S$6.50) is prepared with a recipe that dates back to the 1960s, when the stall first started out as a humble roadside establishment. The dish features bee hoon studded with goodies like pork slices, pork liver, taugeh, kangkong, taupok and cuttlefish, all cloaked by a rich peanut sauce made with over 20 ingredients and spices. So moreish you'll be licking your crockery clean. In fact, the peanut sauce became such a hit that the stall's owners eventually started a factory business to manufacture and sell it. +65 8380 7745 Mon to Fri: 7.30am – 7.45pm Sat: 7.30am – 6pm Sun: 7.30am – 3pm Facebook 11 best stalls in Mei Ling Market & Food Centre for ling-ering bites 7. Rong Xing La Mian Xiao Long Bao (#01-77) Every food centre needs a xiao long bao stall, if I do say so myself. Well, thank goodness for Rong Xing La Mian Xiao Long Bao — Redhill Food Centre's resident Chinese la mian and dumpling stall. It's run by folks from China, so you know their fare's legit. Their dumpling selection covers just about every quintessential Chinese dumpling you can think of, including Beijing Shui Jiao (S$6.50 for 10 pieces), Steamed Chive Dumplings (S$6.50 for 10 pieces) and Cabbage Pork Pan-Fried Dumplings (S$6.80 for 10 pieces). Of course, who could forget the Shanghai Xiao Long Bao (S$4.80 for 6 pieces, S$7 for 10 pieces)? In other news, I personally vouch for the Chilli Oil Dumplings (S$5.50 for 10 pieces), which come chock-full of tasty pork filling and lathered in a tangy mixture of vinegar and fiery chilli oil. The stall also offers an expansive noodle menu starring their chewy, hand-pulled la mian, with delectable options like Zha Jiang Mian (S$4.80), Tomato & Egg Ramen (S$4.50) and fork-tender Braised Beef Dry Noodles (S$5.80). Tue to Sun: 10am – 9pm Closed on Mon 8. Seng Heng Braised Duck (#01-28) If you claim you're not a morning person, Seng Heng Braised Duck may very well change your mind. This stall prepares as few as 20 braised ducks a day, operating for just 2 to 3 hours on average before closing shop as early as 9.30am. But you know what? We'd say it's worth waking up for. The Braised Duck Noodles (S$4.50/S$5.50/S$6.50) are a sensible choice, featuring simple ol' yellow noodles tossed in savoury chilli sauce and crowned with slices of the elusive braised duck. Now, don't be fooled by the meat's drab appearance — it's incredibly tender and surprisingly flavourful. There's also Braised Duck Rice (S$4.50/S$5.50/S$6.50), if that's more your thing. If you're down to ball first thing in the morning, you could splurge on a Whole Duck (S$48) or its Half (S$25) counterpart. Though fair warning: that'd mean less for the rest of us. Mon, Tue & Thu: 7.30am – 9.30am Wed & Fri: 7.30am – 10.30am Sat: 7am – 10.30am Closed on Sun 9. Fei Zai Xiang Shao La Wanton Mee (#01-92) The moment you've got even the slightest hankering for wanton mee or delightful roast meats, I implore you to head straight to Fei Zai Xiang Shao La Wanton Mee. At the helm of this vibrant stall is Roy Chan, a cheerful chef who honed his roasting craft under none other than the famed Fatty Cheong. Fei Zai Xiang's Wanton Mee (S$4) is one of the best I've ever tasted. The mee kia noodles are free of any unpleasant alkalinity, tossed in a tasty dark sauce perfumed with shallots and lard. They're accompanied by vegetables, 2 silky meat-filled wantons and brilliantly charcoal-roasted, caramelised char siew with a succulent mouthfeel. The 1kg Char Siew (S$45) is surely my next target. For a more roast meat-centric meal, you can opt for the Char Siew Roasted Pork Rice (S$5), Roasted Pork Noodle (S$4.50) and even Roasted Duck Noodles (S$5) or Duck Leg Rice (S$8). Tue to Sat: 11.30am – 8.30pm Sun: 10am – 8.30pm Closed on Mon 10. Jia Xiang Mee Siam (#01-35) As you can probably tell from its weathered stall sign, Jia Xiang Mee Siam has been around in Redhill Food Centre for quite some time — more than 5 decades, to be exact. This beloved fixture is a two-dish wonder that doles out bowls of crowd-pleasing Lontong (S$3.50) and Mee Siam (S$3.50) you'll spot on just about every table nearby. This also happens to be LO Pritam Singh's favourite mee siam spot! You'll be pleasantly surprised by just how much Mee Siam you get for only S$3.50. A generous portion of thin bee hoon is bathed in a bright red broth with a punchily tangy profile rounded out by a gently sweet edge. It's accompanied by the usuals: hard-boiled egg, tau pok, tau kwa, taugeh and spring onions, plus a dollop of addictive chilli for extra oomph if you like. The Lontong also promises a treat: the bowl brims with hefty ketupat cakes blanketed in luscious, aromatic coconut curry and piled on by a medley of stewed vegetables that lend a welcome earthy contrast. Daily: 12pm – 6pm 11. Shunli Ah Ma Lor Mee (#01-07) Lor mee enthusiasts have another reason to go 'TGIF', and that's Shunli Ah Ma Lor Mee. This stall opens on Fridays through the weekend, and on Monday too — which also means no Monday blues, heh. Their glorious Lor Mee (S$5) is the reason why cameras eat first. A colourful host of ingredients — fried fish nuggets, ngoh hiang, braised egg, tender braised pork belly slices, plus coriander and minced garlic — are deftly arranged atop the velvety gravy and noodles. It tastes superb, too: chewy yellow noodles well coated in a hearty lor that's deeply savoury with light herbal notes, made even better with a splash of vinegar or some chilli. +65 9106 4876 Fri to Mon: 6am – 2pm Closed on Tue to Thu Facebook 11 best stalls in Alexandra Village Food Centre that'll win you over The post 11 best stalls at Redhill Food Centre to keep on your red-dar appeared first on

From Sandton to the world: Redhill netball team makes history on the world stage
Johannesburg is buzzing with pride after Redhill School' s U17 netball team made history by bringing home gold at the 2025 World School Netball Cup. The Sandton-based school is now officially the first South African school to ever take the top spot in the prestigious international tournament, and they did it with serious style. Held in Loughborough, England, the annual World School Netball Cup attracts the best young talent from across the globe. Redhill not only held their own but dominated the court, outplaying elite teams from Australia, England, New Zealand and beyond to claim the title. This isn't just a win, it's a watershed moment for school sport in South Africa. The Redhill team showed off not just athleticism, grit and technical brilliance, but the kind of teamwork and spirit that champions are made of. "It was surreal and emotional. Seeing our girls lift that trophy after going unbeaten in every match was something I'll never forget,' head coach Ashleigh Gray told TimesLive. 'This was our first time competing in the World School Games, and to walk away not only as participants but as champions, representing South Africa with pride, was a moment of magic,' she added. With netball's profile rising rapidly, especially in the wake of last year's Netball World Cup hosted on local soil, this win adds fuel to the fire. It's a moment of inspiration for the next generation of athletes, and a major reminder that South African teams can compete and win on any stage. This is just the beginning for many of these rising stars. For now, though, Joburg can take a collective victory lap, because Redhill just put us on the map in the most unforgettable way.
