A maid helped rush an 86-year-old neighbour to safety when the latter s third-storey Yishun flat caught fire yesterday morning.
The maid s employer, who wanted to be unnamed, told Chinese evening daily Lianhe Wanbao that she also alerted their neighbours on the same level to evacuate. She told me that the elderly woman had left the unit at first, but she later returned and locked herself in. My helper rushed back and banged on her door, asking her to leave quickly, before she finally opened her door and came downstairs, said the employer.
