Singapore Democratic Party (SDP) chief Chee Soon Juan took to his Facebook earlier today (6 Nov) to highlight the issue of inadequate drainage at Block 121 in Bukit Batok.

Dr Chee shared a video in his post – which was sent by a resident in the area – showing the drains outside the residence block being overflowed during a heavy downpour recently.

He stated that he has urged the Jurong-Clementi Town Council (JRTC) to “take prompt action” after informing them about the situation.

“With recent torrential rains and more thunderstorms expected during the year-end monsoons, the TC [Town Council] needs to act quickly before the situation worsens and someone gets hurt,” Dr Chee stressed.
