Spike in complaints from Woodlands residents over foul odours
#1

SINGAPORE — In the past couple of months, growing numbers of Woodlands residents have reported foul odours wafting through town. They have described them variously as smelling like cow dung, rotten eggs, natural fertiliser or even dead cats.

However, the residents told TODAY that the stench is not so strong or prolonged as to disrupt their daily activities. To date, no one seems to have identified the cause or causes of the stink, although farms in nearby Lim Chu Kang are under suspicion.

The malodorous issue got a public airing on Monday (Oct 4) when Ms Hany Soh, Member of Parliament (MP) for Marsiling-Yew Tee Group Representation Constituency, submitted a question to Parliament about it.

Ms Soh wanted to know the number of complaints that the National Environment Agency (NEA) has received in the past month regarding the foul odours and how the agency goes about investigating the cause.

In a written response, Ms Grace Fu, Minister for Sustainability and the Environment, said that the agency received about 140 complaints regarding foul odours from Woodlands residents between Aug 1 and Sept 24 this year.

Could be an undiscovered dead body in one of the flats. If a single old folk dies at home from Covid, nobody will know.
