To Whom It May Concern,
Hi, yesterday I had a close shave with the lift system yesterday. Me and my two sons was waiting for the lift. When the lift door opened, my older son ran in and I followed in but with my younger son was still outside. The lift closed suddenly on my right hand before I can react. Both the motion sensor of the lift door and the “fail safe” mechanism failed to work and my hand was stuck for a few seconds.

I couldn’t retrieve my hands because I was carrying a bag so I was basically stuck. I also couldn’t reach for the lift button because it was at my back. Luckily the lift did not move at all. I quickly asked my older son to press the open door button to open the lift door again. If he hadn’t done so, my hand would have been severed. Yes, this is again a Sigma lift.
I called the lift emergency helpline and informed them about this incident. From their tone, I can sense that to them it’s like any other day. She wasn’t concerned at all.
I wish to bring up a few issues.
One, with recent incidents, it’s apparent that our lift system is not reliable at all. Maybe slightly better then our train system but still considered problematic and pathetic.
Two, I don’t see why we would need to pay more SC&C in order to upgrade our lift systems Island wide. The old lifts never had such issues. We paid for the lifts when we bought the flat. We didn’t get to chose the lift system. We did not sign up for this Sigma hand chopped off lift system. We are already paying the highest SC&C island wide. Not that we can’t afford it. I am questioning the rationale behind it and why should we be waiting for things to happen and the funds to come in before reacting?
Three, the lift system is made of metal, sensors and electrical systems. This technology has been around since 1880. I find it disturbing that we cannot fix the door or lift issues that we have island wide without changing the entire lift system. This is at the expense of life and limps.

The Independent Singapore reported that a fake doctor Shyam Acharya, who is wanted by the Australia authorities for working fraudulently in 4 New South Wales hospitals for more than 10 years, has allegedly fled to Singapore and may be working here.

Name: Shyam Acharya

Shyam who is wanted by the Australia authorities for working fraudulently in 4 New South Wales hospitals for more than 10 years, has allegedly fled to Singapore and may be working here.

The neighbor told the news site that he would frequently go to Singapore to work in a treatment office as a specialist after receiving the following SMS.

“I have been doing a ton of forward and backward treks to Singapore. I will be back on 31st March.”

Sigh.

What was supposed to be an exciting experience turned very upsetting all thanks to this couple.

A lady in front of me was squatting down and taking a picture of her lil one. I wanted to cross over but I waited for her to be done as the walkway was really very small and crowded. I was holding Bb Z’s hand.

Ever since his facebook video post he has been thanked by netizens while most made fun of him with sarcastic comments such as…..

Netizens wrote

“Hi pastor Kong Hee, I am truly blessed by your oil. Never felt so refreshed before. My girlfriend loves it when I apply on her.”

One netizen, Muhammed Fazrul, wrote:

“Can use for my motorbike? Inside have devil always kena saman.”

Marcus Tan:

“Don’t waste oil la brother Kong. Use as cooking oil to cook for hungry people in poor countries sounds like a better idea bro”

Wesley Goh:

“Its sad how we Singaporeans pride ourselves as a nation of intellectuals and yet many remain credulous to believe in nonsensical imaginary sky unicorns and talentless imbeciles like Kong Hee.”
