PUB's million dollar new facade reservoir (active beautiful clean MY ASS) is today opened by Ass Loong Son, as some other parts of Singapore is flooded to become reservoirs - every where.
Idiot opened the wrong reservoir lah.
He should be officially opening Orchard Reservoir, Bukit Timah Reservoir, Thomson Reservoir, Paya Lebar Reservoir, Geylang Reservoir... etc, all together at once! Moron!
Entire red dot is one big reservoir!
The huge billion dollar land reclamations not only cause Kota Tingi (Johore) to had flooded, by narrowing the Straits of Johore & flow of Johore River, plus Marina Barrage is sinking Sinkapore into the sea.
Singaporeans must learn? TOO FUCKING LATE!

S'pore must learn from recent flooding episodes: PM Lee
SINGAPORE: Singapore must learn from the recent flooding episodes and upgrade its infrastructure and systems, said Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong.
However, he added, it is also not realistic to expect the country to be completely free of floods.
And, individuals need to also take responsibility.
Mr Lee said this at the opening of the PUB's Active, Beautiful, Clean or ABC Waters project at Lower Seletar Reservoir.
After a S$10 million facelift under the ABC Waters programme, Lower Seletar Reservoir now has new facilities, among them, a 170m bridge which extends from the banks of the reservoir, allowing residents to venture over the water.
Children can also have fun at the new water play area and wading stream.
The ABC Waters programme is a long-term masterplan to transform Singapore's waterways and reservoirs into vibrant community spaces.
Visiting the revamped area on Sunday, Prime Minister Lee reminded Singaporeans to be responsible for the facilities even as they enjoy them.
He said: "We all have parts to play to keep public places and our waterways clean. We must prevent the litter from choking up our drains, otherwise the litter will find its way into the drains, into the canals, into the reservoirs and pollute our water supply."
Turning to the recent floods, Mr Lee said Singapore must learn from the episodes and upgrade its infrastructure and systems.
He said: "We will continue to implement new drainage works, improve the design of the drainage systems and to deal with more intense storms. But I don't think it's possible in Singapore to expect the place to be completely free of floods. Because if you're going to do that, you'll have to have huge tracts of land put aside for huge monsoon drains which will be empty most of the time, the land is tied up, the infrastructure will cost a lot of money."
So, Mr Lee said a more realistic objective is to prevent widespread and prolonged flooding and limit the risk to lives and damage to properties.
He added that contingency plans should be in place to ensure that if there's heavier rain than usual, the relevant agencies are able to respond quickly to deal with the problems.
