Proprietor of long-standing family goldsmith business Lau Shiew Choi woke up to a shocking discovery after finding his storefront vandalised by an unknown group.
The incident occurred in the early hours of August 21, marking an unfortunate turn in the business’ nearly five decades of operation in the Belait District.
“Never in the 50 years of running our humble shop have we encountered such an incident,” Lau shared during an interview with the Bulletin.
Lau recounted the distressing moment he learned of the incident, describing how a barrage of messages from friends alerted him to the presence of red paint splattered across the front barriers of his store and his vehicles.
