You know how much we, Malaysians adore good food, often taking trips to Ipoh or Melaka just to satisfy our chicken rice cravings. But this customer truly took it up a notch, ordering chicken rice all the way from Singapore.
In a TikTok video, a man dressed in a Grab delivery rider uniform was spotted boarding a flight from Bangkok with his Grab bag, later seen at Singapore's Changi Airport to collect the chicken rice order.

The video garnered significant attention, with the OP mentioning her encounter with the delivery man at the airport. However, she didn't inquire about the cost or the person behind the delivery. While many found it amusing, some were left puzzled, speculating that only someone affluent could afford such an escapade.
Despite the buzz, a Grab representative clarified that the video was fictional, emphasizing that Grab doesn't provide such a service. Additionally, the individual portraying the delivery partner in the video is not registered with Grab. The spokesperson also highlighted that Grab's only current "cross-border" delivery service is the 100+ Cities Delivery (BETA), enabling users to send vouchers, gifts, and food to loved ones across more than 100 Southeast Asian cities.
Even if such a service did exist, we're certain there would be numerous customers using it. It would undoubtedly be entertaining to live through their experiences vicariously.
