FAN FALLS ON COUPLE
What has the Town Council done? On the 21st of January, a ceiling fan in Fengshan Food Centre fell on a couple. The spinning blades had hit them both before crashing onto the table and then landing on the floor. The couple had just placed their grocery bags at the table when the accident happened. Fortunately, everyone at the hawker centre came to help immediately. When the podgy woman asked a bystander to summon an ambulance, he was already on his phone calling. Luckily, for the couple, the ancient fan was not on, or their heads would have been severed. I think the Town Council was very irresponsible.
If they had checked the fans regularly, this incident would have been prevented. After reading this article, I am touched by those people who have helped the couple in need. Yes! They have shown the Singapore spirit by helping others in need. After this freak accident, I hope the Town Council will be on their guard and do more checks regularly. I think we should be more cautious and not take things for granted. I used to sit under the fan as it is always very humid in the afternoon, but now I do not think I will want to do it again.
