What made the moment even more special was that the driver, despite being Chinese, had gone the extra mile to embrace the celebration. The car’s interior was adorned with Hari Raya decorations, and the driver even played festive songs to lift the mood.
“On my way to work this morning in an e-hailing ride. Appreciate the effort even though he’s Chinese. The Raya decorations and music really brightened my day,” the user wrote.
