Maybe someone farted?

It's always the culprit who makes this kind of statement.   

 

When I fart in the MRT train, I always cover my nose and look around

She married to an angmo residing in Bali.      

 

The volcano is more than 1 hour drive from her home.  She will be affected by the volcano ash thus need N95 masks. 

 

Its faster if she cut her bra as mask pad with thick cotton wool and use it. One for herself and the other for her husband ...

Not yesterday leh.

Hahahaha
Yesterday jb there refinery there got big fire

 

Obviously it's from Pasir Gudang which is the nearest source of air pollution in the north.

 

But obviously the pussies in NEA can't openly say that it's from Pasir Gudang la.. you know I know, maybe most of us also know why.

Better not let my MIL eat so much onions and garlic

 

when taking her to Senkang, so many people there

 

complaining now. Sorrie sorrie.

 

  

 

 

 

@mustank drove by Senkang (tested new biogas @Jamesc MIL ) .........and his double exhaust did the rest

 

 

[Dleodleo]

You should let them know no angmoh is bigger dan a volcano eruption.

 

N95 mask....

 

The hot ash will fry anyone to a crisp. The zhao tar type of crisp.

 

LOL

 

I tot it already started spewing lava ... see video

 

dun knw leh.  According to her going to but haven't erupt yet.

 

So NEA people still scratching heads? If this was a toxic chemical leak, you die, I die, everybody die . . . . . 

 

Ya lor.  This shows how small Singapore is.  If there's a toxic leak or someone want to harm us hor, very easy one - the gas will reach us very fast.

[Vidz]

Caught a whiff of a 'gas-like' odour? Don't worry, say SCDF and NEA

 

its only Mordor

 

 

 

 

[Bystander50]

complain ah? how to complain ah? fill in feedback form? or whatsapp johor sultan?

 

Write to the kuniang foreign ministar.

You have have given her container load of onions and garlic... you really love her deep deep....

What concern me is why our agencies cannot tell where the source. I can understand if they cannot tell what is the cause because they cannot go near the site of the source. Or have they determined the source? Telling us the air quality is still good is no assurance. Telling up the chemical composition and what needs to be done would be better. Cannot sample the air or too difficult?

 

What happen if we are under chemical attack? Surely the Indoor Protection Plan SCDF has been practicing should roll in. So much talk but come to real happening, clueless

[Kusje]

If you smell something bad everywhere you go.

 

 

Then maybe the source is you.

[Mustank]

Mordor people do one lah

Monday's chemical stench traced to industrial facility in Pasir Gudang, Johor: NEA

 

SINGAPORE - The mystery chemical stench that cloaked the island on Monday (Sept 25) has been traced to an industrial facility in Pasir Gudang, Johor.

 

The National Environment Agency (NEA) said in a Facebook post on Friday (Sept 29) that it contacted its counterpart in Malaysia, the Department of Environment (DOE), to seek its assistance after the smell was detected on Monday.

 

It said: "The DOE has deployed resources in identifying the source of the smell. It has traced the source to an industrial facility in Pasir Gudang, and is taking action against the operator."

 

NEA added that it will continue to monitor the air quality levels in Singapore.

 

A large zone in the 311-sq-km town of Pasir Gudang is dedicated to heavy industries, and fumes and pollutants from the area have drifted to Punggol in past incidents.

 

On Monday, complaints first poured in from residents in Sengkang and Punggol about an acrid, chemical stench that was later detected by people in estates such as Ang Mo Kio, Yishun, Seletar and Bishan. Thick smoke also hung over some of the affected areas, residents said.

 

The NEA said its officers and those from the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) were sent to affected areas to carry out investigations and ambient air quality measurements immediately after they received the reports.

 

NEA officers checked factories in affected areas, and other possible sources of gas and chemical leaks.

 

"NEA and the SCDF did not find any abnormal factory operations or incidents in Singapore that could have caused the gas smell experienced," the NEA said.

 

It added that the winds were light and there was also some convergence of winds over the northern half of Singapore during the period when smells were reported.

 

"This might have led to an accumulation, and slow dispersion, of smells in that area," it said.

 

NEA added that air monitoring stations here detected low and safe levels of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the air.

 

VOCs can be human-made or naturally-occurring chemical compounds that easily enter the air as gases from some solids or liquids.

 

They are numerous, varied and commonly present, and each individual's reaction to VOCs may vary.

 

must kpkb then they do something to trace the smell ah?

[Victor68]

Alamak, it took them that long to determine the direction har? I think it is important to advise public about the toxic fume so that people can take precaution. Already happen and SCDF/NEA also cannot stop the fume from coming, but they can warn people to take action mah.

 

I would have close door/windows and try to stay indoor. Wonder anyone went jogging

For all this emphasis on national defence and security, I don't think we're that well prepared any attack of this nature. News dissemination was so slow, I kept checking for updates on the NEA and SCDF FB pages but nothing much until the smell was almost cleared. If it was a chemical attack, many of us would have been dead before we even knew it.
