Smooth entry to S’pore malls on first day of mandatory vaccination status checks

SINGAPORE - Entry to shopping malls was smooth on Wednesday (Oct 20), the first day that rules barring unvaccinated individuals from entering malls came into effect, following a one-week grace period. Malls had been allowed a week to roll out vaccination-differentiated safe management measures, where people's vaccination status will be checked before entry. Just before noon at Parkway Parade, there were up to 15 people waiting to enter the mall at any one time, with staff conducting meticulous checks at entry points. Despite that, the queue moved quickly. Queues were shorter at other malls like Nex, AMK Hub and Kallang Wave Mall, but fast moving as well. Nex has introduced fast-entry lanes for tenants and delivery riders picking up food orders at two entrances in Basement 2, so that these individuals can check in quickly.

He added that checking in via SafeEntry will continue to be mandatory at the mall's fast lanes. Along with signs to inform shoppers of the measures, the mall has deployed add...

Large crowds throng Rail Corridor on Good Friday

SINGAPORE - Visitors hoping for a relaxing stroll in nature at the Rail Corridor between Hillview and King Albert Park on Friday (April 2) were shocked by the large crowds. Some said the former railway line was so packed that there was hardly any room for social distancing. The 4km stretch reopened on March 22, with restored bridges, among other new features. Visitor numbers peaked at around 8am, according to the National Parks Board's website, reported Chinese-language daily Lianhe Wanbao. One Yishun resident who was there with his family, including four children, told Wanbao he did not expect such huge crowds. Many of those interviewed told the paper that it was their first visit to the Rail Corridor. The carpark at the nearby Rail Mall was also full, forcing many to park on the road. Users on several outdoor interest groups on Facebook warned others to avoid heading to the area due to the crowds. Outdoor adventure tour group X-Trekkers urged: "Do avoid Green Corridor (aka Rail Corridor) during the peak hours (8am-12pm, 5pm-7pm), on public holidays and weekends. "Too crowded and safe distancing is not possible." People walking on Rail Corridor (Central) despite the rain, as viewe...

Ventilation duct at Nex mall fell due to accumulated water, says BCA after probe

SINGAPORE - The collapse of the ventilation duct in a Nex mall cinema was due to "a significant amount of water" accumulating in the insulation material surrounding the duct. The investigation findings were released by the Building and Construction Authority in a statement on Monday (Dec 7), following the incident at a Shaw Theatres cinema hall on Aug 30 that left two moviegoers injured. The water accumulation was a result of "unforeseen excessive condensation over a sustained period", and its weight had overloaded the air-conditioning and mechanical ventilation (ACMV) dropper duct. This overloaded the brackets supporting the ACMV duct, causing it to give way. The acoustic material surrounding the duct typically serves to regulate the surface temperature around the duct to prevent water from forming due to condensation, and to insulate the noise caused by air travelling through the duct. Checks on other cinemas' ACMV systems and ducts had found no such excessive condensation, said BCA. A spokesman for Nex said in a statement on Monday that it will “continue to support and work closely with (its) tenant, Shaw Theatres, throughout the course of rectifications for the planned reopenin...
