SSSSSSTUCK NO MORE 🐍] On Tuesday morning, AVA were alerted to a python sighting in a canal drain at Queen’s Road. When AVA arrived at the scene, the python was found stuck in the canal pipe, with one-third of its body exposed. The python was successfully rescued after a few minutes and sent to Wildlife Reserves Singapore, where it is doing well now.

AVA advises the public not to approach, disturb, feed or try to catch any wildlife. Keep a safe distance from all snakes and avoid confronting or cornering the animals. Do not interact with the animal, and ensure that young children and pets are kept away as they may be curious and approach it.

The public can refer to the advisory on snakes on our website, and contact AVA at 1800-476-1600 to provide feedback or request for assistance.

Two old Singaporean uncles arguing over one blocking another’s way while disembarking from the plane. Who is right? Kudos to the cabin crew stepping in to stop the quarrel from further escalation. Come to think of it can’t we have a little more patient and be more gracious to one each after all there no prize for being the first to leave the plane right??

There is a lack of punch…

ICA officers at Pasir Panjang Scanning Station detected 69,048 cans of duty-unpaid beer in a consignment declared as fruit punch on 19 Feb.

The duty and Goods and Services Tax of the duty-unpaid beer amounted to about S$86,580 and S$20,140 respectively. Investigation by Singapore Customs is ongoing.

13 immigration offenders arrested

ICA officers conducted an inland operation around Singapore on 22 Feb. Among those arrested, nine had overstayed in Singapore. The remaining four persons, a Singaporean and three foreigners, are being investigated for employing or harbouring immigration offenders.

The ICA takes a serious view of attempts to overstay, enter or depart Singapore illegally. Homeowners are advised to exercise due diligence in checking the status of their prospective foreign tenants to ensure that their status in Singapore is legal.

I have not edited this video or tried to dramatise it with special effects .This is the sad state of affairs in our country today ( 24 Feb 18 ) and it just looks set to get worse unless we have a Minister of Common Sense in our Cabinet . 18 of these majestic trees that line bukit batok west avenue 3 were uprooted to make way for building more HDB flats in 2016 (which I have documented on Youtube). Now, more of them are sadly being uprooted again, & residents like me have no clue as to why. These trees have an appearance which many mistake to be unhealthy but they are strong, can outlive many generations and survive some of the toughest conditions.

The first sign a tree is sick is when it loses its foliage, but as you can see in the footage, the trees have healthy foliage . The base of the trees which have been cut are bright & strong . There are no signs of decay in any of the cut trunks from the largest to the smallest branches. They are in tip top condition. These majestic trees which have been here for at least 30 + years are breathtaking to look at – but what is most important is that in terms of impacts on our health, trees in urban areas are substantially more important than rural trees due to their proximity to people . A very large study in Toronto showed that an additional 11 trees along a neighborhood street improves health in a way comparable to “being 1.4 years younger.” It is the opposite over here – we face a double whammy . We are being suffocated by the eradication of our country side & have not much option but to spend time in fake, superficial amenities like malls, indoor & outdoor playgrounds that are made of material which emit harmful chemicals for us & our children . Is it any wonder why the authorities need to build more hospitals as singaporeans continue to be afflicted with all types of diseases and at a younger age too. Trees such as these must be removed only if there is a compelling reason to do so ……pls STOP the Tree Cutting Campaign in Singapore.
