Got service or not?
Suntec security behave like 'ruffians': They make threats, yank shoppers out of queue

STOMPer Damien went to Suntec City on Saturday to check out the deals at the electronics fair but ended up seeing security shouting that they would slap people and hauling shoppers out of the queue.

Said the STOMPer:

"Suntec City $88 madness.

"Just thought I'd pop by and see what the $88 that was introduced on the front page of the newspaper was all about.

"I headed down around 10+am. Knowing such stuff will always end up in long queues and I was never a fan of one, I tried nevertheless.

"What started out as a normal man-made queue was dismissed by the management and I heard them shouting to chase off everyone.

"They even shouted, 'Leave this place or I'll give you a slap'.

"What happened next was more disturbing. The supposed security staff of Suntec grabbed and pulled people out off the queue.

"Are hooligans and ruffians in charge of Suntec security now?

"Do people deserve this kind of treatment?

"I thought Singapore is a first-class country with first-class services. I'm appalled."

The security guards were pulling out people who form their own new queues and those who thick-skinly cut into the front part of the main queue...

this stomper probably wasnt aware of the actual situation n starts blabbering like a mad dog trying to bark the alphabet.
he thinks that he is 'speaking up' for some poor foreigners / shoppers but on actual fact he just portrays himself as a pathetic soul caught up in his unicorn world of happy endings, ignorant to the fact that security officers have a tough time doing their job with that lot of kiasu ppl & underhand ppl like him who dares not confront, only dares to Stomp.

If these foreign trash behave like animals, then they better expect to be treated like animals. People from these countries wont bat a lid at stampeding all over a small fallen child just to get a discount for a tv set. Go security!

Look at the unruly crowd. How do u control that without being assertive? Maybe choice of word could have been better. It's an ugly sight.
