4 OCTOBER: A TikTok video went viral recently, showcasing a young man’s act of kindness towards an elderly woman at a toll booth on the SUKE Highway in Malaysia. The woman, who was stuck in a Touch ‘n Go lane with an expired card, was left stranded due to the absence of staff at the booth. The kind-hearted man offered his Touch ‘n Go card to help her pass through the toll, while he used the RFID lane for himself.
After the toll, the man stopped to retrieve his card from the woman, who expressed her gratitude for his generosity. In his video, he not only highlighted the importance of helping others but also pointed out the inefficiency in toll booth management, urging toll operators to ensure better staffing to avoid similar incidents in the future.
This heartwarming gesture drew widespread appreciation from social media users, who praised the man’s selflessness and called for more acts of kindness in everyday life. The incident also reignited discussions on the need for improved toll systems and better support for those facing technical or payment issues.
This story serves as a reminder of how small acts of kindness can make a big difference in someone’s day as stated in Astro Ulagam.
