Where to Play Fireowrks Legally in Singapore?

[AhMeng]

Where huh? Long time never play since childhood...

Why Chenghu never set up a Fireworks Park and let us go there and play fire crackers until shiok shiok...???

Yeah, I know its a crappy feeling since 1971/2 when it was banned. Nearest place is to drive up to Johor. My colleague lives in Batu Pahat and has invited me to go over and visit during CNY. May just do that. Also, agree that the local authorities should allow it with certain restrictions (eg. only firecrackers, no rockets) at designated playgrounds. The sound of firecrackers changes the whole mood of CNY. In Malaysia, it is banned too, but the cops are not going to waste their time searching for offenders when they hear the crackers, turns out likely to be young boys firing them. They'd just pretend they didn't hear a thing.

Cheers!

Sports Hub is a good location! The grass is inferior quality anyway...

If the size of the crackers are restricted to the small ones, any basketball/badminton court will do. Actually, void decks at HDB estates should do to. Players should stop all play by 11 pm though.

the original purpose of the ban was to avoid starting and spreading mass fire to kampong/attap houses.......nowadays all concrete liao how to spread fire.....nobody would be dumb enough to light the fireworks within the shoeboxes anyway.....

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

Maybe you were sucking on tits or teats then to remember , from wikipedia "Singapore – a partial ban on firecrackers was imposed in March 1970 after a fire killed six people and injured 68".

True. I was there - the smell of fire crackers brought back old memories.
Happened during last Saturday's lighting up at Chinatown.
The other funny thing was that the entire proceedings were conducted in English - in the heart of Chinatown!
