Maybe he should have written to our dear MND Minister for help since he is the anchor in Sembawang GRC... From STOMP: http://singaporeseen.stomp.com.sg/stomp/sg...len_branch.html Posted on 11 Nov 2011 Car hit by fallen branch: TC's contractor refuses to pay because it's 'act of God' STOMPer Super's car was damaged by a fallen branch, but the contractor responsible for maintaining the trees in Woodlands Drive has refused to pay, claiming that the incident was an 'act of God'. The STOMPer said: "This incident happened in April 2011. "I parked my car at the unloading/loading bay in front of my block in Woodlands Drive to fetch my son from school. "I returned with my son to see horrible damages to my Honda Civic. "The windscreen and many parts of my car was hit by the fallen tree branches. "After so many months of my insurer trying to claim from Sembawang Town Council's main contractor for the maintenance of trees, their insurer has refused to pay. "As a result, my no-claim discount decreased from 50% to 20%. "What is this? They even told me this was an 'act of God'. "It was not even raining or there was no strong winds that day. "After the incident, the trees around the area were trimmed. "If nothing had happened, they wouldn't have trimmed the trees. "Imagine if the branches had hit my son, what will happen then?"
