Mr William Tan asked the Minister for Health whether he is aware that Kampong Tiong Bahru, around the area where the anti-malarial and monsoon drains meet, is always flooded during rainy seasons; and whether he will take immediate steps to prevent such flooding.

Mr A. J. Braga: I am not aware that this area is always flooded during rainy seasons. If the hon. Member will be more precise in his indication of the flooded area, I am confident that the City Council will investigate the problem.
