KARTer 2nd Gear December 31, 2011 Share December 31, 2011 (edited) Last time the excuse was that the drains were designed for "1-in-50-year" occurrence. Next excuse was oh flash flood, flash flood bo bian BO BIAN!!! Following this was new excuse of Liat Towers' own problem of low basement/insufficient pumps. Now LL have to admit the now-infamous old Stamford Canal once again could not cope. So all the will-not-happen-again promises, the expensive gadgets inside the drains, the SMSes/alerts basically gone down the drain once more... I guess no one bothers to check if the major developments around Orchard Road area has any adverse effect on the Sramford Canal to date. Is it a mindset of if it ain't broken, don't fix it? how complicated can it be? ---------- total up catchment areas/surfaces (and hence volume) which channel rain water into stanford canal and check if the size of the canal can take the total in the worst case scenario (high tides)....... it maybe involve tedious calculations, but it's not rocket science............ yet they screwed it up big time Edited December 31, 2011 by KARTer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KARTer 2nd Gear December 31, 2011 Share December 31, 2011 Heard that Minister is among Professional Engineer, as well? looks like today's ministers regardless of their background (P engineers, whatsoever etc) have mod-ed / converted themselves to million-dollar men with no specific interest in anything except the monthly pay cheque....

KARTer 2nd Gear December 31, 2011 Share December 31, 2011 They must had thought sweep under carpet will do. Just yakult had to abscond to other ministry latest update on english usage: last time we said : sweep under carpet now, just say: yakult ----- (verb, meaning: as above) one word says it all Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KARTer 2nd Gear December 31, 2011 Share December 31, 2011 we lucky we don't have air craft carrier..... since trains nowadays get stuck underground, why not conver them to river/canal boats to carry passengers, even floods wont affect their service using water... in fact, more floods means more places / further these SMRT river boats can carry their passengers.. killing 2 birds with one stone: no more trains stuck in tunnel, more passenger, cheaper (flood water is free), faster (no jam or tunnel breakdown).... lim swee say will love this Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KARTer 2nd Gear December 31, 2011 Share December 31, 2011 How many ministers does it take to realized that sgp has a flooding problem? Ans: none. Yet. Minister A says: happens once in 50 years. Minister B says: drainage blocked by rubbish thrown by sgp ppl. Minister C says: oh it's an honest mistake, let's move on. Minister D says: I will apologize if what I said offended you. The above is meant to be a joke. I will apologize if it offended anyone,minister included. this is definitely "Team Work"... all trying to cover up with "joint efforts"............... problem is: all ended up shooting their own feet now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
