Re: HEAVY FLOODING AGAIN Long-Kang-Yaacob to pay back in votes!

their method of clearing longkang is very simple. wayang & clear the debris from 1 longkang, then dump the rubbish into the next longkang. last week stamford & rochor longkang choked, so after clearing, there's going to be another longkang choked.

however, their pockets never choked.

The barrage at Singapore river must go !

=> How to go? Ass Loon had happily told Najib he didn't need his water anymore! Expect his brilliant scholars to divert the water to the PHole Estates as a solution.

Bedok condo residents trapped as flood hits carpark and lift lobby
Posted on 25 Jun 2010

The drivers who parked their cars in the basement of the carpark at a condominium around Bedok South
were trapped because of the flood. But they were not the only ones affected. Residents were also trapped
within their own estate as all the gates leading out broke down, and the lift lobby was flooded.

STOMPer Tricia said:

" Many residents were trapped due to the flood, and the security gate at all lift lobbies had malfunction!

"When I call Town Council, the line is line always either engaged or busy. Is there any authority to help?

"What a morning!"

Morning storm wrecks flood havoc all over S'pore
Posted on 25 Jun 2010

The heavy rain which started at about 5am this morning (Jun 25) has caused flooding in multiple areas of Singapore. STOMPers have reported flooding in the northeast and east regions like Thomson, Moulmein, Paya Lebar and other areas. In some areas, the waters were at knee level.

STOMPer Edward sent in a video of commuters wading in knee-high water at a Thomson Road bus stop.

"Flood water reached knee height with minutes," the STOMPer said.

STOMPer Seb reported flooding along Changi Road.

STOMPer Linda sent in pictures of flooding along Tampines Road:

"Heavy rain in Hougang area (Tampines Road) caused 'mini flood' similar to Orchard incident last week!

"Flood took about 20 to 30mins to subside."

What's the excuse now that the drains were cleared? That the Ministers and French chef perm secs are underpaid?

To the Christians it must be the wrath of God that caused the flood. The 3 IR building looks like 3 big joss sticks praying to other Gods and not Jesus.

PAP have offended Jewish God Yehweh and Jesus (Gentile God) and now the wrath of these 2 Gods have had decented on Singapore - flood ... ah!!!!

Over 60% of June rain fell during morning downpour, causing road chaos

Traffic chaos after intense downpour




SINGAPORE: Heavy and intense rain fell in many parts of Singapore early Friday morning causing road chaos with fallen trees and floods.

The PUB said 100 mm of rain fell within an hour, between 8 and 9.30am.

That's the same amount of rainfall on June 16 which led to massive floods in Orchard Road. That amount is more than 60 per cent of the average rainfall for the entire month of June.

PUB says the heavy rain caused localised flash floods in a number areas and the waters subsided within 30 minutes.

During the heavy downpour Friday morning MediaCorp received several calls about floods in various parts of Singapore.

Among the areas affected were Upper Thomson Road near Sin Ming Road, Jalan Boon Lay, and Bukit Timah Road after the Balmoral Road junction in the direction of Corporation Road.

Several roads also had traffic diverted due to fallen trees.

An uprooted tree fell across the entire northbound carriageway after the junction with Ang Mo Kio Ave 1 in Friday’s morning's heavy downpour making the expressway impassable to traffic.

The incident caused a massive jam which tailed back several kilometres.

A van was also trapped by the fallen tree and the SCDF said two people in the van were injured and were sent to Tan Tock Seng Hospital.

Traffic Police were also on hand to divert traffic away from the CTE towards SLE in between the Ang Mo Kio Ave 1 and Ang Mo Kio Ave 3 exit due to the fallen tree.

On Orchard Road, a fallen tree near Orchard Central blocked two lanes of traffic.

SCDF personnel were also called in to help evacuate children from a childcare centre at Telok Kurau Lorong G, affected by the floods.

They also had to pump water out of the childcare centre.

Traffic police officers were also kept busy regulating traffic and directing motorists at jammed up roads.

At the junction of Balmoral Road and Bukit Timah Road, traffic had to be diverted away from due to flood caused by heavy rains.

100mm is only four inches - our drains should have been able to handle it. They deliberately used the lower denomination to make it look like a lot of rain - they could have said 10cm.

No lah! this is the start of a new 50 years cycle, so there will be no more flooding in the next 49 years.

It is not just an localised area.. e.g. Bukit Timah or Thomson..
