15:26 Min

The Building and Construction Authority is conducting an independent investigation into the Tanjong Katong sinkhole on Saturday. It will include soil and rock analysis, and could take several months to complete. The ground situation at the incident site has been stabilised, after PUB refilled the sinkhole using liquefied stabilised soil material. Authorities are doing further checks for other sinkholes, using radars and probes to hunt for empty spaces underground that could cause the ground above to cave in. Sabrina Ng reports.
