  "summary": "A video of Malaysian passengers helping each other evacuate an overturned express bus in Johor has gone viral on social media, showcasing the country's spirit of unity. The incident occurred on Tuesday when the Singapore-bound bus lost control and overturned into a drain on the north-south expressway between Pagoh and Yong Peng. Despite the main door becoming inaccessible, passengers worked together to evacuate, with some climbing out through the driver's door and a side emergency exit. The rescue effort was widely praised on Threads, with users describing it as a reflection of Malaysia's \"one heart, one soul, helping one another\" spirit.",
