A resident who resides in Pasir Ris said that a construction site by SMRT is operating even in the middle of the night.

She then uploaded a 3-minute video (April 18), where noises can be heard every few seconds. Typically a handphone is unable to record noises from such a distance. Meaning the actual volume of the noise that is generated from the construction site is even louder than that.

Here is what she said:

SMRT! it’s Monday 0037h and your construction site at Pasir Ris is still working and generating noise at this hour. Please see to it and put an stop to unnecessary noise at this hour. We residents have to get enough rest for work and school later today.

The law

According to NEA noise Control here are the timings and noise level permissible for late at night

55 dBA is equivalent to the noise of a maker.

No-work rule on Sundays and public holidays

In addition to establishing permissible noise limits, NEA has also implemented rules which prohibit work on Sundays and public holidays for construction sites located within 150m of residential premises and noise-sensitive premises.

A woman picked up a stack of ringgit from in Malaysia, Johor Custom. She then posted on Facebook seeking the owners of the cash.

While the post has gone viral and many people are commending her for her honesty, many “fake” owners have since contacted the woman on Facebook to claim the cash.

Greedy people trying to claim the money

After the post went viral with over 2,500 shares, her Facebook inbox was flooded with messages from a lot of people claiming ownership of the cash.

She later updated her Facebook post telling people to be honest.

She said that she will only return the money to the person who knew the exact amount of ringgit in the bundle.

Greedy people have been trying to guess the amount of cash and she reluctantly appealed: “Please be honest, thank you.”

She stated that the owner has yet to come forward.

A Facebook user, Yulia Anakova, shared a post on the Facebook group Complaint Singapore, that she was at the swimming pool of Heartbeat @ Bedok ActiveSG, when she saw the benched lined up with bags on them.

She also lamented how the music being played there was “uncensored”.

Here is what she said

Imagine how inconsiderate some people are. They value their bags which are just filled with clothes more than the comfort of other humans.

Seen at ActiveSG Heartbeat Bedok pool. They are doing some water exercises and they place their bags all on the benches for 2 hours.

And others sit on the floor while their kids have swimming lessons. Faces blurred for privacy.

And all the staff from ActiveSG also do not take action, such a poorly run place.

Edit: No one comes out of the pool to sit on those benches, ie. They aren’t reserving them. I’ve watched this the past 3 weeks.

They come, place their bags on the benches instead of under, do their water work out, get out and leave.

PS. If you have children, be careful because the music played here is uncensored.

Otters are very bright and inquisitive creatures. They have a highly developed sense of hearing and smell. They spend the most of their time foraging and exploring their territory. They are active all year, day and night.

A large group of otters were spotted trying to get into a condominium located along Alexandra Road.

At least 12 otters were seen trying to figure out how to get past the gate and a few of them managed to squeeze through.

It is believed that the otters are looking to get in the pool for a quick dip in the hot weather or looking for Koi fish for lunch.

Squeezing

Netizens said that some of the otters are too fat and were struggling to squeeze through.

A driver shared how he witnessed an accident happen right in front of him, and when he tried to help the victim, he was told off by the driver.

The incident happened on 16 April at about 12.54pm, along Holland Road.

Here is what he said

16apr2022 1254hrs

Holland road right after 6th Avenue going towards Holland village.

driver who made a U-turn at Holland road and collided with a motorbike.   I was the first car there  when the accident happened right in front of me.

I immediately put on my hazard light to block all oncoming cars  as the boy was laying on floor beside his bike  in front of my car.

I got out of my car, approached the boy and started to talk to him.

But driver scolded me and asked me to get lost and mind my own business.  (He say: I can see you are in your golf attire, get lost and go for your golf!!”) I was totally appalled by his behavior.

driver was so aggressive towards me, I do not understand why and asked me to leave. Another lady came and asked me if she should call the ambulance and I said YES!!!!   I don’t know why this driver  don’t allow me to talk to the boy. 

I have video evidence and it clearly shows the driver making a u-turn and cut across 3 lanes very fast and knocked this motorbike.   Motorbike was going straight.

driver try to move his motorbike but I told him don’t move anything until police arrive as police have to take pictures.  What in the world was this drivertrying to do??

He behave like he’s the boss and don’t even bother to call ambulance.

Why didn’t he ask the other lady to get lost?  Why ask me get lost?

Lucky we called ambulance immediately.
