We’ve heard stories of family members accidentally left behind at rest stops during the busy holiday seasons – but it’s a different case when it was on purpose. A video of a local woman publicly sharing how she abandoned her mother at a bus terminal recently went viral – and netizens are understandably furious at her story.
The video was first posted on TikTok and subsequently shared on Twitter by user Januar Haikal. In the video, the woman talks about how she and her husband planned out a way to abandon her mother at the Melaka Sentral bus terminal. She shared that she left her mother at the terminal’s restroom, running away while the elderly was distracted.

It is unknown why the woman abandoned her mother but it was shared that the mother is apparently suffering from a mental illness. After the video went viral, many netizens were outraged at the woman’s unfilialness, calling her heartless for abandoning her mother at a bus terminal.
Many netizens were also shocked that the woman’s husband and children were also in on the plan to abandon the elderly. Several netizens also questioned how she could boldly share the story without any shame, even going as far as to pinpoint the exact moment when she abandoned her mother.
While it’s unconfirmed, the mother is supposedly safe and currently living in Johor – but it’s still heartbreaking to hear that someone could do something so vile to their mother.
