    FOR one morning only, StarHub chief executive Peter Kaliaropoulos had a special job. Donning a bright green company T-shirt, Mr Kaliaropoulos became a delivery man to a 53-year-old general manager of a cleaning company who had been a loyal StarHub customer since 2000.

    The delivery package? A newly-launched iPhone XS Max, with a pair BNP Paribas WTA Finals Singapore Racquet Club passes worth S$4,288 to top it off.
