Unfortunately, the air-conditioner in your room somehow leaked in the middle of the night when you were soundly asleep and you found your $1,000 Armandi cloak soaked wet the next day.

This is a “freak” event which happens once in fifty years. The hotel would probably have your cloak replaced for free and on top of that, give you another night’s stay in its presidential suite. Such is the response expected from a world-class hotel.

Similarly, if one has the fortune of staying in a country governed by the highest paid leaders in the entire world, especially on a small island well sheltered from the unpredictable forces of nature, one should expect living a carefree life with few hassles from Mother Nature.

Of course “freak” events do happen at times as Bukit Timah residents discovered to their horror when their houses, cars and whatever became submerged by rainwater last Thursday.

According to the state media, Thursday’s intense rainfall which was about six times that of a normal storm resulted in massive amounts of water to drain into Bukit Timah 1st Diversion Canal, causing it to overflow.

Minister for the Environment and Water Resources Yaacob Ibrahim described the flooding of parts of Bukit Timah on Thursday as a “freak” event that occurs once in 50 years.

“What happened was very unusual. The intensity was tremendous. We knew the diversion canal was not big enough to take this,” he added. (CNA, 20 Nov 2009)
