SINGAPORE : A former kitchen assistant has been ordered in a district court to perform 200 hours of community service for stabbing an ex-colleague at a Resorts World Sentosa eatery on February 11.
Wong Phee Hon, 58, stabbed Mr Vong Wah Lee, 27, in the stomach in the kitchen of Ho Yeh Cafe after the younger man had accused him of being "stupid".
Wong was opening a
tin of kaya when Mr Vong, a cook, shouted at him, telling him that he
should use another type of can opener instead.
Insulted by this sudden provocation, a furious Wong picked up a knife, walked over to Mr Vong and stabbed him.
Wong was detained by a security officer while Mr Vong was sent to the Singapore General Hospital for treatment.
Mr Vong had to undergo surgery with injuries to his intestines and was discharged five days later.
The court heard that Wong has to complete performing all 200 hours of community service within a year.
He could have been jailed up to three months, fined a maximum of S$2,500 or both.

200 hours of community service for a stabbing ? ...
man .... who's his lawyer ?! ...
Not considered as armed assault or something like that?
AND WHY MOLEST WILL KANNA HEAVIER PUNISHMENT?
he could have killed the guy.
More appropriate sentence would be charging him for attempted murder?
Even causing grievous hurt also doesnt warrant such a light sentence?
Someone else stab him and do 200 hrs of CIP lo, see how he feel.
Another Lao hero bites the dust of his broom. XD

I would also do that. I would cut him open and take out all of his insides.
