Taxi driver Kenneth Chan was ferrying a passenger from VivoCity to Toa Payoh on May. 5.

Little did he know, the interaction he had with the passenger would be a memorable one.

Passenger works as a cleaner

Recounting his experience in a Facebook post, Chan said that he had a chat with the passenger as he drove towards the destination.

Through their conversation, he found out that she works as a cleaner and stays in a one-room HDB flat at Lorong 5 Toa Payoh.

Gave S$10 tip

When they reached the destination, she gave him S$25.

But the taxi fare was S$15.87.

Chan declined her tip "many times" but she was persistent.

He said: "She insisted in giving me as she knows times are very hard."

According to Chan, the passenger was also aware that not all taxi companies waive off rental rates.

He wrote:

"She has a very rich heart and may God bless her...she doesn't judge people for who they are...she just have this simple virtue in her heart nor did she asked for any conditions of any individuals...for I tell you...it is easy to mark a person for mistakes done...but to give unconditionally like that lady is truly remarkable...there are people like that...they see beyond mistakes but look upon the struggling individuals and such people these days are rare...super rare...and when i think about it...and that to me is very rare to find such good passenger. (sic)"
