When 31-year-old entrepreneur Kevin Wee stood outside Waterway Point with a pile of gifts and a sign inviting people to take what they wanted, a member of the public threatened to call the police on him.
Mr Wee, the creator behind TikTok account @radical_kindness_, which aims to promote acts of kindness toward strangers, told Stomp that he had made a similar video in 2023.
This year, he recreated the video – standing blindfolded outside Waterway Point with children’s toys and a sign that read: “If you would like Christmas gifts for your kids but find it tough, come take one.”
Mr Wee added that the initiative aims to raise awareness of an upcoming three-day barefoot walk across Singapore to raise $30,000 for children with special needs.
