Serious 12 Sept 2020 - The Day John Tan's Home Nearly Got Flooded! My Maids Stood Ready With The Sandbags!

[JohnTan]

The national water agency, PUB, even had to issue a flash flood warning at 12:36pm.

Water levels in drains and canals reached 90 per cent of their capacity at Dunearn Road, between Yarwood Ave and Binjai Park, as a result.

The water levels only subsided after an hour.

The water level in the canal next to Dunearn Road in Bukit Timah was filled to the brim.

Should the heavy rain continue, there could have been a flash flood in the area.

Thank God for the PAP. They made PUB widen the canals a few years ago. With the increased capacity, the new canals ensured that the best children of Singapore stayed safe from floods.

Still road area used to flood in the past right up to early 80s, canal made bigger and solved the flooding issue for slightly over 2 decades? I lost count on the number of flooding over the last decade alone.

definitely, those days it was "still" known as flooding - not ponding, as the pappie pondans call it nowsadays!

There is no flood, there is only ponding. Please use the correct term.

The construction of the Marina Barrage was supposed to solve these flooding problems, but it looks like it didn't work too well.

Parallels with China's Three Gorges Dam.

Evacuate to a higher area e.g. Rifle Range Road if the flood becomes too severe.

Before evacuating, I will take all John Tan's valuables, gold bars, his Rolex, Audemars Piguet watches , all his cash money and run..

John Tan will twist his maid's nipples if she's not wearing any bra.

Glad to know your GCB home in that area was not affected. Your prayers were answered. My ground floor rented flat in Toa Payoh was spared too. Allah is great.
