SINGAPORE — With climate change expected to cause more erratic rainfall patterns, Singapore's approach to dealing with flash floods has been expanded, said national water agency PUB chief executive Ong Tze-Ch'in.The Government will continue to invest in drainage infrastructure, but on top of that, PUB recognises the need to build up societal resilience against flash flooding, he added.«We have come to the realisation that we cannot possibly prevent every flooding event,» said Ong, 50, in an interview with The Straits Times on Nov 28, as the country enters the rainy north-east monsoon season — the wettest period of the year.According to Singapore's third national climate change study, the growing amount of planet-warming gases in the atmosphere is expected to bring heavier, more intense and frequent storms.In January, monsoon surges — weather events that happen during the wet phase of the north-east monsoon — dumped large amounts of rain over the country in a short period of time.
While returning from a friend's wedding in Johor Bahru, a Singaporean couple was stopped by Malaysian immigration officers at the checkpoint for a car inspection. Not knowing that their handbag, which contained documents, bank cards and $4,700 in cash had fallen out of the vehicle during the check, the couple continued their midnight drive home, reported The Star. Interior designer Tan Zheng Guang explained that he and his wife were worn out from the journey and only realised the bag was missing upon reaching home. The 36-year-old thought the item might have been left behind at the hotel in which they stayed from Nov 3 to 5, but it was not the case. Tan immediately cancelled his bank cards but held back from lodging a report «as I had a feeling that someone would find my bag», he told the Malaysian news outlet. Sure enough, he later received a call from the Singapore Consulate-General in JB, informing him that Malaysian immigration officers had found his bag. «Initially, I thought it was a scam call until the person sent me a picture of my identity card,» he recalled.
Motorists who make payment for their composition fines for traffic offences within 14 days of receiving the notice of offence will get a discount of $30 from Jan 1, the Singapore Police Force said on Monday (Dec 1).In a statement on Dec 1 (Monday), the police said that significant resources have been used to deal with a «high and increasing volume» of composition fines and appeals. According to the police's statistics, the Traffic Police (TP) issued an average of about 6,000 notice of traffic offence to motorists and processed more than 1,000 appeals per month in 2024.«The vast majority of the appeals were rejected as TP only accedes to appeals in exceptional circumstances, such as if there was a medical emergency, and with supporting documentary proof,» the police said.The introduction of an early payment scheme (EPS) is intended to encourage motorists to pay their composition fines promptly and reduce meritless appeals, thereby saving TP significant resources and allowing these resources to be reallocated to more critical areas such as enforcement.

A Lalamove driver accepted a job in the wee hours of the morning for “learning experience”. But he ended up with $200 in debt after borrowing the money to pay for a client’s order in advance — which turned out to be a scam. While the incident happened last March, the delivery rider told Stomp in an article on Sunday (Nov 30) that he wanted to bring it up now due to the recent prevalence of similar scams. He described his initial reluctance to accept the job at around 2am, which promised a $140 commission. “I’ve never done this kind before as the previous jobs I accepted were all paid online,” he reportedly said. “But on that fateful night, no such jobs were available. So I decided to take it up as a learning experience.’ “What’s more, it was on the Lalamove app. What could go wrong?” The client, who messaged him using an Indonesian number, first asked the delivery rider to buy $23.80 worth of food at an eatery in Bedok using his own money. He was then asked to buy drinks, potato chips and tissue paper packs amounting to $5.75 from a 7-Eleven outlet opposite the restaurant.
