Kindness goes a long way, especially in Singapore.

On Tuesday (Nov. 19), one Faiz Roslan took to Facebook to share an incident that taught his child the importance of kindness:

"Shared some chocolates, exchange a flying kiss. Thank them for keeping our hometown clean. Teach them to spread kindness from young."

Gave chocolates to Sembcorp truck driver

Along with the above caption, he posted two photos of a woman carrying a baby boy, giving what appears to be chocolate to the driver of a Sembcorp garbage truck.

The incident, according to the photographs, happened at an open air carpark at 551 Choa Chu Kang street 52.

Faiz later told Mothership that the woman is his sister, and the boy is her son.

Singaporeans respond positively

Many Singaporeans reacted positively to the post, with some stepping forward to affirm the importance of kindness:
