A Grab driver is reportedly under investigation after a passenger shared a video showing him making repeated remarks about her appearance, ethnicity and age during a ride that left her feeling uncomfortable.
Content creator Sarah Lim uploaded the one-minute clip to her TikTok account, @sarxh.lim, on July 11, where it has since garnered more than 222,100 views, 14,000 likes, 279 comments, 1,157 saves and over 6,600 shares.
“When I first got into the cab, I felt the convo started getting weirder and weirder so I immediately started recording in case he said anything out of line,” Lim wrote in the caption.
“He was asking me quite a bit of personal questions… and I just overall felt uneasy.
“I wasn’t too sure if what he said counted as out of line or not, so I told my friends and parents about it and they agreed that something was a bit off.

“Maybe he was trying to be nice but it just came out wrong?? But yeah, just a reminder to be safe and (wary).”
Text overlaid on the video added that she “didn’t know how to react” and felt “a bit uncomfortable and disturbed”.
‘I love Cantonese girls’
In the video, the driver can be heard commenting on Lim’s appearance, telling her: “For a Chinese, you got really nice tan skin.”
“You’re charming,” he adds.
He also remarks that there is a “demand” for women like her.
The conversation then turns to Lim’s background, with the driver asking what dialect group she belongs to. When Sarah replies that she is “a bit of Canto”, the driver responds: “Oh my God, I love Cantonese girls. They’re so good looking, man.”
