The Straits Times newspaper said the Ferrari was a limited-edition model that Ma had bought for S$1.8 million (RM4.4mil) for his 30th birthday last year.Pictures from a video of the accident published in local newspapers showed Ma’s car apparently ramming the taxi after he allegedly ran a red light following a night out with friends.Hundreds of indignant comments were posted.
“I hate to drag nationality into this tragedy but the stupidity of a single (Chinese) possibly drunkard driver has caused such catastrophic damage to so many people,” Tan Wee Meng posted on Facebook.Singapore’s population grew from 4.4 million in 2006 to 5.2 million in 2011, largely the result of a higher intake of immigrants as well as guest workers and professionals.The accident came two months after a Malaysian cleaner at Singapore’s Changi Airport was killed after he was hit by a taxi hijacked by a Chinese guest worker.
