wonderamazement SG This Friday 10pm... Surprising to find that a singapore disaster will be featured... I think the next will be the Nicoll Highway collaspe... RIP to those who lost their lives.
alleggerita SG Wa..even wikipedia has an article about this disaster..no wonder “Seconds from Disaster” will feature it..
Ponders SG i think this Discovery episode have been around for a year. But i am more surprised of the truth. When you ask ppl who remembered the incident.. they normal will tell you because the developer cut corners.. which turn out not to be the case.
wishboy SG repeat damn lots of time liao tat time i rmb discovery channel oso got a documentary on sg history almost take 3 days of ?? hrs each day to complete
oldkid SG For those who have cable TV, you will notice that when Sg’s National Day is approaching, Discovery Channel will feature shows about Sg.
Master -_- SG oh tell me about it...endless re-runs of those "patriotic" MVs glad to be an Ex SGean by the end of this year
Ponders SG This month our neighbour's national days too... so after Singapore they will have a week of Indo disasters then after that Malaysia;s?
Ponders SG i forgot.. watched it a year ago. ahah i think some contractor knocked some pillars down that is not supposed to be knocked down. or a cracked pillar was ignored.
chillz88 SG if i remember correctly, there’s some cracks on the base of the hotel .. a few people notice it though
ADsolutE SG think is due to a mistake by the engineers. the load of the building is not calculated correctly. as times go on, the main structure of the building weaken, cracks appeared and the building collapsed.
de_middle SG yes my classmate's dad died while working in UOB located in that hotel there were already cracks & was supported by wooden beams........so its sad
