The weather is insanely hot and humid. At least 4 workers fell down at PSA due to heat stroke yesterday

Usually, there should be more rainfall during this time of the year, but we get dry spell instead. Our country is getting lesser trees for reason of massive construction everywhere.

Indeed. That nice chunk of forest opposite Singapore Poly, next to Dover MRT, has been cut down to build more HDB flats. :roflmao:

I believe some of the trees there were older than most Sinkies.

There are a few very very old trees at holland village, near the main road

Exactly, hot till like in a oven.
 
If you or anyone in your family know of anybody who works in PSA as a blue collared worker, tell them to quit.
They work under slave labour conditions. With plenty of term that can incur penalties for their performance.
Also for the past few decades there were many many cases of accidents that causes deaths in PSA. They sweep it all under the carpet the the prostitute media are complicit in not reporting it

Often, when one is suffering heat exhaustion or the beginnings of heat stroke, the symptoms will show up first - confusion, disorientation - not knowing what is up or down, right or left, red patches on skin, dizziness.

Thus, should one encounters such a person, immediately evacuate him/her to a shady area & lie down. His/her body temp would be rapidly rising along with his/her heart rates. Calm him/her down & tell him/her to calm down, to slow down the heart rates. Remove any thick outer clothing that he/she may be wearing - such as jackets, ties, etc, to allow better air circulation & heat transfer to the surrounding area.

This must be done before calling for medical assistance, as such assistance will take at least more than 10mins to arrive, & many things can happen to that person with rapidly rising temp & heart rates, which will burn up Human organs, within 10mins...

First aid for heat exhaustion or heatstroke victim. From Mayo Clinic, USA :-

Fan the person while misting with cool water. Place ice packs or cool, wet towels on the neck, armpits and groin. Cover the person with cool, damp sheets. If the person is conscious, offer chilled water, a sports drink containing electrolytes or another nonalcoholic beverage without caffeine.

You want cold weather, can go to places of high latitude to enjoy the cooling atmosphere. Because we are at the tip of the plasma, we are expected to experience the heat

For workers who work under direct sunlight:-

1 Drink 3 glasses of plain water before start of work to keep body hydrated.
2. Wear loose light colored cotton made uniforms to absorb sweat, reflect heat & allow air circulation within body.
3. Wear transition lens glasses to protect the eyes from harmful UV rays. Those $5 sunglasses sold at shops do not have UV protection.
4. After every 2 hrs of work, take a 15 - 30 min break in the shade, not under aircon as the sharp drop in temp will harm the body. & drink another 3 glasses of plain water..

Using such measures, productivity may drop but the cost of hospitalization for workers suffering from heatstroke will be far far more expensive

For students, it would be best if school uniforms are made of cotton T shirt material to absorb sweat & wear plain colored Bermuda shorts than long pants for better air circulation, as well as cotton socks & not Polyester, Spandex or Nylon, such which does not absorb sweat.

The climate is changing, & thus measures will be needed in place to protect citizens, as well as personal responsibility for one's health.
Last few paragraphs I differ,we have more worker if you want to. There's no productivity lost.

Why do you need to rebuild and rebuild?
Last I heard Robertson walk will get some more revamping.

Orchard road should leave it as it is.

How else to reliably grow the GDP? Totalitarian shithole regime with POFMA law, where maverick wrongthinkers are not tolerated, you can forget about having a Samsung or TSMC.

Build, demolish, rebuild, revamp, upgrade, expand, enhance, widen. 'remake', Same old. :cool:
