@channelnewsasia: Singapore actress Joanne Peh broke down in a TikTok livestream on Wednesday (Jun 17), after cancelling a separate sales livestream while she was in China. In an emotional rant, she stated that her decision to walk away was based on the disrespect she experienced from the merchant, whom she did not name. #singapore #singaporenews
I don't think she actually meant it when she said "offer a glass of water when we sit down". I am guessing it is a figure of speech she used just to show how there was no respect or basic etiqutte between one person to another. Just like how you would offer a drink to someone you invited to your home as a form of courtesy, you do not act disrespectful after someone accepted your invite. You asked them to be there, so there should be some form of gratitudes as they agreed to come over.

I am never offered a glass of water in my 2 years of live-streaming. What’s the big deal about the lack of drinking water? I always bring my own bottle with water.

So no free water = Disrespectful? She didn't give any examples of what disrespectful things the merchant did.

respect goes both ways. Just because someone pays the piper doesn't mean we don't have to respect the piper. Give respect to get respect. If basic respect is not even shown it's very hard for us to respect the brand yeah?
