Public transit continues to be a forum for Singapore鈥檚 ugliest behavior, with another episode of racist harassment reported yesterday.
A woman identifying herself as Z. Hidayah online took to social media with video of a woman she said tried to start a fight by shouting and threatening to report her to the police for giving her 鈥渄angerous eyes,鈥 and even referred to her as a 鈥渂rownie.鈥
鈥淛ust keep on doing what you want to do, I didn鈥檛 do anything,鈥 Hidayah鈥檚 voice can be heard saying in the 41-second clip, to which the woman shouts back, saying: 鈥淲hat, you didn鈥檛 do anything? You shot your dangerous eyes at me!鈥
I just took a seat behind her and she started to yell at me and stared at me. Then proceeded to yell at me wanted to report me to the police??? – for having 鈥榙angerous eyes鈥? i just wanna get to work bro.

Hidayah said that she was seated behind the bespectacled woman when she began harassing her. After moving to the front of the bus, she said the woman 鈥渒ept making a scene.鈥澛
鈥淚 just took a seat behind her and she started to yell at me and stared at me. Then proceeded to yell at me [and] wanted to report me to the police??? – for having 鈥榙angerous eyes鈥? [I] just wanna get to work bro,鈥 Hidayah wrote.
She has not responded to 颁辞肠辞苍耻迟蝉鈥 messages seeking comment.
鈥淸S]he made [a lot] of comments under her breath – 鈥榶ou brownies are the problem in my country, in this country鈥 – [I] have now felt racism towards me, targeted to me & honestly it鈥檚 the shittiest feeling,鈥 she wrote, adding: 鈥淗onestly the one thing that got to me is the fact that she is being racist. Targeted to me, in my face.鈥
Last month, a serial harasser鈥檚 YouTube channel of hate was unearthed after one man documented his encounter with her. She had created years worth of videos, many on public transportation, in which she belittled train commuters in monologues boasting her supposed elite status.
