SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/Asia News Network): When Rich Liow, 47, set out for a kayaking expedition on Monday morning (Aug 22) with his friends, he did not expect that they would end up in Pandan River, where they discovered the body of a 60-year-old man.

The group had planned to kayak from West Coast to Pulau Hantu, but decided to detour to Pandan River when they realised they did not bring a safety boat to help them navigate the open seas.
