You are not right on this, the ban was imposed, this happened so long time ago, when a family living in HDB flat ( where I have forgotten), was loosing the packs of firecrackers in their hall, when someone upstairs threw firecrackers down & some dropped into the house...it started a fire & I forgot, how many died...that was when it was banned...
How come...only LHL & members can play with firecrackers? from the recent photo? so unfair...ha ha ha ha
