Are water tanks safe from terrorists?
-
May 20, 2011 - ST Forum
I AM concerned about the safety and security of the Housing Board's water tanks after reading the report on the discovery of a maid's body in a rooftop tank in Woodlands on Monday.
Are our water tanks safe from intruders? In another case in 2002, a group of boys threw washing powder into a similar water tank. Looks like our water tank areas have easy access.
Do the town councils and private property management committees have a plan in place to control access to water tank areas?
Such reports would give ideas to terrorists to harm residents. Since we are living in a time of terrorism and Singapore is a potential target for terrorist attacks, are our water tanks really safe from sabotage that could cause a great number of deaths?
What steps are being taken - or have been taken - to prevent such fatal intrusions?

Why bother with water tanks when C4 strategically placed on 5 columns of a 25 storey hdb block can bring it down?
-
do u think terrorists will be stupid to put c-4 on the water tanks?

C4 can't bring in.
Laxatives are readily available here.

So easy for terrorist to drop cyanide or strychnine into, even a banglah with no technical expertise can readily gain access.
Can even drop anthrax or small pox into.
We can create a new post for WKS, like Minister in charge of toilet and water tank security, he has experience in dealing with limping terrorist.
Which political party in charge of running Woodsland?
If it's PAP then it's an honest mistake.

so easy.....shoulda turned the water tanks into my personal swimming pool when i had the chance!!!good breeze......clean crisp water.....damn...what a waste of a good tank of water that i could swim in!

Terrorists can poison our water tanks with with biological weapons and chemical weapons.
-
The dead maid is a biological weapon, Hitman using sunblock is a potential chemical weapon.

Terrorists can kill ppl and put them in HDB water tank to pollute the water. Best and cheap way ,dont even need to research biological and chemical weapons.

In medieval times during way, I heard they used dead bodies to start biological warfare and to pollute water source of their enemies.

Who cares man? If my water tank is polluted by a corpse, and i die, so be it!
If i'm destined to die, then i will still die no matter wat i do.
We all have to die sooner or later.
Don't boher abt such unimpt issues.

Should increase the population of Singapore.
The chances of you being hit by a terrorist act would lessen with the increase.
