Taman Lau Geok Swee landslide: Who will take responsibility?


I HAVE just returned from an overseas trip and was shocked and deeply saddened to learn of the recent landslide at Taman Lau Geok Swee, Paya Terubong, which reportedly claimed the life of a resident and affected several others.

My heartfelt condolences go to the family of the deceased. My thoughts are also with the affected residents, who are understandably concerned about the safety of their homes and families.
