Another SBS employee is singing the company's praises on Facebook.

This comes after the Malaysia lockdown kicked in on Mar. 18, leaving many cross-border workers struggling to sort out their living arrangements.

To ensure that their services continue unaffected, Singapore transport companies have put up their Malaysian staff at local hotels.

This left one SBS Transit employee so touched that he wrote a Facebook post about it.

Here's a translation of Liu Jiacheng's caption:

"Due to the lockdown, I ran to Singapore without even bringing a single piece of underwear. I thought I would have to sleep on the streets, but the company actually put us up at a 5-star hotel. I was so touched I cried, I won't leave such a good company even if you beat me to death!!! I love you SBS Transit!!!"

(Note: "Even if you beat me to death" is a common Chinese phrase to mean "no matter what happens".)

Liu then shared some photos of his life in Singapore since the lockdown.

Besides taking photos of himself at the various facilities, Liu also made a finger heart to express his gratitude.

Liu revealed that the hotel he is staying at is Oasia Hotel Novena.

Searches online show that it is a 4-star hotel, however.

Maybe Liu was just very grateful.

He is also not the first employee to express his thanks online:
