A COBBLER, who made headlines in November after he was evicted from Katong Plaza where he had worked for more than 11 years, has now set up shop at a location less than a kilometre away.
Ng Ah Bah, 71, resumed business at Block 86, Marine Parade Central on Sunday, Chinese daily Lianhe Wanbao reported yesterday.
He had received an eviction notice in October after a drunk man was found sleeping behind Mr Ng's pushcart and turned violent when asked to leave.
The cobbler, whose wife of 45 years is in a nursing home after a stroke in April 2014, had worked at Katong Plaza's sheltered walkway for more than 11 years.
The news drew the attention of Tin Pei Ling, Member of Parliament for MacPherson, who facilitated the setting up of Mr Ng's new stall at a bustling location with a FairPrice supermarket, post office and banks nearby.
