It goes without saying that regardless whatever conflicts or disagreements that one may encounter, it is always best to approach the situation with a level-head instead of resorting to violence. But a group of local contractors did the exact opposite and were caught on video assaulting what is believed to be two foreign workers outside a Setapak condo unit just earlier today (15th December 2021).
