If not pollution, then don't tell me it's the "northern lights".
We're no where near the north pole lah.
I used to have a friend who lives in Jurong West. On certain days, a few times a month, the air there stinks of acrid chemical smell. If you lived there all your life you won't know.

That was many many years ago liao...now all are uncontrolled by Gov, less pollution, less smell but more and more shopping mall, more pc....etc..If not pollution, then don't tell me it's the "northern lights".

If there is process upset, e materials will be sent to e flare stack. If e flare stack doesn't operate properly, u will get these chemicals into e air. But sometimes harmless steam also gives e same illusion so need to check e source.
Junior
bro, read some science fictions might helps....
why u see more of such when you are staying at west side because sunsets on Earth have a red, orange or golden color and as the sunlight passes through so much atmosphere as it comes over the horizon that all the blue light gets scattered away. ok for now?
even if it is dusty atmosphere, it is probably a few hundred of miles away...

As a matter of fact, i know some people who works/worked in jurong island. They were givenhigher salary bcos of air pollution. Some of my friends kept falling ill.

Do note that Punggol and Yishun also have such flare and chemical smell sometimes. Most probably from pasir gudang refinery and heavy industries in johor.

oh boy... jurong vested people will come out in full force to rebut and flame!

Hehehe, some of u are just funny. Pollution? Look at Beijing...that's call pollution. Look at HK, Shenzhen, that's call pollution...
Sin is 42km in length and with a wind speed ranging from 10-40km/hr, in no time almost the whole island can smell or see if there is really pollution. And either with north or northeast, south or southwest direction, it almost covers the whole island.....island I mean. That's how small we are. The terrible thing could be coming up north due to less stringent regulations....my opinion.

Senoko power plantin the north could be the culprit.Do note that Punggol and Yishun also have such flare and chemical smell sometimes. Most probably from pasir gudang refinery and heavy industries in johor.

Pulau bukom where shell refinery is located will ave impact on west coast. Pasir gudang in johor will have impact on ponggol. QUOTE=leesg123]oh boy... jurong vested people will come out in full force to rebut and flame![/QUOTE]

What impact does ethylene have on human health? Please google it.

No kelong no guni.
More kelong = more guni.

You guys worried too much:

Be careful what u wish for. More stringent pollution control and regulations to have cleaner air? Possible when the factories all shift out of Singapore. Then more people will be jobless and suffer from poorer nutrition and quality of life.

Surely Singapore can survive on cleaner energy and technology

You are right brother. Alot of people in sg just not happy with everything.

It's good to appreciate what we have, but also be aware and cautious about threats that can arise - this is precisely what our Govt asks of us.
If Govt says we have to build nuclear plant for economic reasons, what would you say?

Oh no, you all better don't talk bad their turf! They will tell you: What pollution? Everywhere in Singapore is the same! (like real!)

With respect to singapore's west generated pollution:
1) with NE wind, S is safe.
2) with SW wind, N, S, E is safe.
So overall S part of Singapore is saftest? Mmm, that is D1-3, D9-11?

Vehicular emissions in traffic jams r more dangerous. U will have breathed in NOx, SO2, CO, unburnt hydrocarbons like benzene (carcinogenic), particulate matters, O3, n other toxic by products. No place in Singapore is safe. Just stay healthy n pray ur immnune system can fight back.
Senior
Maybe stay in The Raintree for minimum pollution?

Haha, good attempt to trying buy cheap at Jurong.. Well,i think buyers and sellers are smart enough to judge the value.
Junior
no need to talk about hazardous gases. have you whiffed in the "chocolaty" smell when living around boon lay area?
it stinks, period!!
Newbie
Chocolate smell is not the problem. On some days, there's very strong smell like burnt plastics.
No wonder so many people here kena lymphoma for no reason.

is that an established correlation between the two? i don't live in the west, but i have faith that NEA keeps an extremely tight standard on air safety
Junior
not sure how many of you have seen this.Do note that Punggol and Yishun also have such flare and chemical smell sometimes. Most probably from pasir gudang refinery and heavy industries in johor.
when plane take off from changi airport in NE direction, sometimes you can see haze hovering in johor side. don't know why singapore side is relatively clear the few times i saw the haze in johor. (maybe wind direction?)
Newbie
How about you volunteer for an experiment? Move to Jurong island, breathe in the air morning and night. Don't use aircon. Let us know after 5 years.
