Whose fault is it?

You may not have seen/heard this news, if you are outside of Singapore.

OR u don't read local papers.

Anyway, there was some drama that occured outside Caldecott Broadcast Center-aka-Mediacorp, between a 'citizen' and a cabby. Sigh, so much for the advocation for taxi-drivers 2 entries ago and this thing happened. I guess the rest of Singapore (and maybe the whole world) are having this negative cloud of perception against all Singaporean taxi-drivers.

It happened that this fella-aka-filmer was having the argument with the cabby for parking the wrong way. And expletives were exchanged, where 2 innocent CISCO officers tried to make peace. It ended up embarassing the cabby big-time, because even his car-plate appeared in the video itself.

Still dunno what i'm talking about? Click here to view the video. I have to warn you, that the 4th word u are hearing is an expletive, which will repeat itself within the 3 min video. Please put your kids away before clicking it.

An update to this drama was just out and pipping hot.

Now, Whose fault is it, exactly?

Everyone is entitled to their views on this. You can't say neither. If not, where will this drama come from?

Is it the driver? Is it 100% his fault? The update seem to get the cabby to absorb all the blame. Yes, he was rude and used expletives, and the fault started with him, because technically that's where the whole thing started.

Is it the filmer? Is it morally right for him to film this in the middle of an argument, and posting it up on the most happening video-gathering site, YouTube with the cabby's full face and car-plate. The whole of Singapore will see it, and soon the whole wide world.

'Marvellous' work, smarty-arse, the whole world now knows how ugly we Singaporeans are.

为何为了一个人打翻一艘船？

One cabby may have attitude, but no ALL cabbies are like that. Next time, tourists wouldn't dared to take cabs when they depart from Changi Airport. Man, i foresee a massive jam at Changi-Expo-Tanah Merah Stations, if this comes to fruitation.

My take is, both are at fault. That's why the taxi-company apologize wha. But i'd figure his career as a cabby should be over, since the taxi-company HAS to protect their image. Worst, the color of the cab and car plate are so obvious, everyone will shun that car-plate definitely. The filmer earns more and more brickbats for displaying bad behavior (dirty linen) to the whole world.

What do you think? Whose fault is it?
