Singapore Man Left Behind by Coach in Malaysia

Imagine you get off a bus for a quick break. Then, you see the bus drive away without you. This happened to a man from Singapore at 4:15 am in Malaysia.

A Singapore man named Ernz said this happened to him on a recent trip to Kuala Lumpur.

Ernz told a news site that his trip started normally but became very stressful.

The bus stopped, and Ernz got off to use the toilet. But when he came back, the bus was gone.

Ernz said, 'I saw the bus drive away and leave me behind.'

Ernz's friend was still on the bus and told him that he had told the staff Ernz was left behind, but they didn't stop.

Ernz's friend thought the stop might not have been a scheduled break.

Ernz tried to flag down a car, but then he stopped because it wasn't safe.

Luckily, Ernz found a car nearby and used an app to book a ride.

The driver was using the same app, so Ernz was able to get a ride.

Ernz didn't know where he was, but the app said 'Pusat Servis SONY'.

There were only a few people around, and no one from the bus company.

Ernz was glad he had his phone and passport with him.

His friend on the bus helped him get his belongings back.

Ernz's trip had already had problems before he was left behind.

The bus company changed his departure time without explaining why.

Ernz had to wait a long time for the bus to arrive.

Ernz was lucky that things didn't get worse when he was left behind.

What bothered Ernz most was that the bus company didn't respond after the incident.

Ernz tried to contact the bus company, but they didn't answer.

Ernz had paid for travel insurance, but he didn't think it was worth claiming.

Now Ernz wants to research bus companies before he travels.

A news site tried to contact the bus company, but they didn't respond.
