Given we have so many foreigners among us, it will be very hard for them to grasp people mentalityWhen u have a grasp of their mentality, u know what to do and how to prevent such incidents
Covering up reservoirs is a superficial solution

Yes patrolling is another option.With control center monitoring the areas.
We might need more manpower resources.

good suggestion.....but there should be a central guardhouse with routine patrol.....with all life saving devices as mentioned by Milo ...
but suciders will still change spots the whole island and it would soon become a very police state amidst our bureaucratic system...

time to resource top grade social counsellers .... currently many are volunteering staffs due to its mentally tough and psychologically taxing scope of works without much public accolades and recognition...
greater recognition and motivation for our social workers that have been a great help to those who attempted suicides and regain back their consciouness and courage to relive again....its time also to salute them as the great defender of social and moral conscience.....

We know very little about the causes behind the bodies.
1. First we need to check if the reported suicide rate is accurate. This can occur if bodies are classified as "unnatural death" or "case unsolved" instead of "suicide". Suppression of suicide rate is popular in some countries.
2. If there has been an increase, check the causes for suicide. Since today's methods are different from those of the past, it is likely today's causes are different.
Examples of suspect new causes are increases in loanshark harassment, population density, loss of purchasing power, increased unaffordability of life needs etc
3. Check if new methods of suicide are popular: reservoirs vs MRT tracks, preference for group suicide vs individual etc.

Take it as a lesson that one day, terrorists might posion our water. What should we do to prevent this from happening? Did the authorities brainstorming this kind of sceniro?
there are 1001 different ways to kill someone or commit suicide.
and there is no foolproof way to prevent everything.

The support groups need more reach to help the suicidal.... Keyword: Reach.

Thanks buddy, not only prevent suiciders to commit suicide by jumping into the water, we can also prevent terrorists attack on our water too.

Shouldnt the authorities install a form of sensitive devices in the water to detect any abnormal particles in the water such as water poisioning liquid. That will trigger an alarm to the control center and also tramistted a smses to the officers in charge.

Sensitive devices are unable to detect the millions of unknown poisonous liquids around the world
a biological indicator using human cells is a much better way

That is why they allow those turtles, fish and monitor lizards in the reservoir right? If there is a sabotage, the eco system in and around the reservoir will be affected.

NopeHuman cells respond differently to poisons & toxins, especially when it is targeted at humans
The animals will not be affected in any way, but when humans drink from it, humans will die
