'Ah Gua', Middle Finger And Rubbish Throwing: Neighbour Dispute Goes Viral

A TikTok user, softhearted_kelly, has posted a series of videos purportedly showing a confrontation with a neighbour. The videos have since gone viral, with the creator claiming that the neighbour resides at 182 Rivervale Crescent.

In the videos, a man who appears to be of Indian descent can be seen confronting and allegedly harassing the creator's family.

In one video, the man is seen throwing rubbish near the creator's home, leaving a mess before walking back towards his residence.

In another video, the man can be seen raising his middle finger at the creator and seemingly challenging them to a fight. He is also heard engaging in a heated verbal exchange with the creator.

In one of the videos, the creator can be seen walking towards their residence.

According to the caption, the neighbour allegedly called her husband "ah gua", a derogatory Hokkien term commonly used to insult or mock a man perceived as effeminate or lacking masculinity.

The creator: "The thing is my kid 7yr old play scooter go till his house he ask my kid go away so she angry take his shoe out at other place but we call him and apologise already den he report us about our pma park outside so town council come up we shift our pma down Liao den my family or friends come he not happy report police my kid jump report I watch tv or video very loud police come up I told the police my house where got tv. My kid big already jump what. He report false statement Ma. Jio my husband come out my husband dun wan he say my husband ah gua."

In response to a comment, the creator provided more context, saying her child had ridden a scooter towards the neighbour's home and moved his shoe after being told to leave.

She said the family apologised, but claimed the neighbour later made several complaints over issues including their mobility aid, visitors and noise from her child.

The incident comes amid longstanding concerns over neighbour disputes in Singapore, where complaints can range from excessive noise and littering to harassment and confrontations.

Just recently, in June 2026, a 72-year-old woman was fined $2,500 for repeatedly failing to comply with a Community Disputes Resolution Tribunals order to move furniture and reposition a CCTV camera facing her neighbour's door.

The long-running dispute also involved noise complaints.
