A Thai food stall in Singapore has gone viral after a receipt showed a $0.20 “gas and oil” surcharge on a $7 Pad Thai. The stall owner, Mr Tan, explained that the charge was introduced due to rising costs, with gas prices increasing by about $2 per cubic metre and cooking oil by $4 per tin. He said the surcharge was added for transparency and does not generate profit, but simply helps cover higher operating expenses. The incident has sparked mixed reactions online, with some concerned about rising costs being passed to consumers, while others appreciate the clear breakdown instead of hidden price increases. #8dayssg #8dayssgtrending #singapore #sgnews #sgviral

A foodpanda rider in Singapore has been suspended after allegedly marking a customer’s order as delivered before walking away with the food. The incident, involving a $13 order, was captured on camera and later shared online. The company has said investigations are ongoing. The case has also drawn comparisons to previous incidents involving delivery riders, including reports of food being left near rubbish bins and earlier cases of alleged food theft caught on CCTV in 2024. While most food deliveries are completed without issue, such incidents continue to raise concerns about accountability and service standards in the food delivery industry. #8dayssg #8dayssgtrending #singapore #foodpanda #fooddelivery

Deputy Prime Minister Gan Kim Yong has drawn reactions online after sharing a selfie taken in a car on the way to the airport for a trip to the United States. The post comes shortly after his speech in Parliament encouraging Singaporeans to conserve energy by opting for public transport over private cars, as well as a recent appearance where he was seen taking the Punggol LRT. Some netizens questioned the choice of transport and called for leaders to lead by example, while others welcomed the move towards public transport use and encouraged further steps such as taking buses or even cycling. The discussion reflects broader conversations in Singapore around sustainability, energy conservation, and the practicality of reducing reliance on private vehicles. #8dayssg #8dayssgtrending #singapore #sgnews #sgviral
