SINGAPORE: The heavy rain across Singapore this week has caused a leak at an elevator in a Hougang public housing estate, leading the town council to suspend operations before the issue was resolved.
Netizens responding to the video expressed concern that the rainwater seeping into the original parts and mechanism of the elevator may cause an electric shock to passengers. A spokesman for the town council said: “After our on-site inspection, we found that rainwater flowed from the roof of the group into the elevator machine room . Although there was strong wind and heavy rain at the time, this was an unprecedented situation.”
