http://goo.gl/akOk8 - NewspaperSG archival samples of similar cases at Pandan Reservoir (Sep 1987, Oct 1987, Apr 1992, Jan 2002). However, the majority of previous incidents there went unnoticed & unreported by the mass media.

For those "worried" about water quality, it would be good to logically consider the reservoir volume (vs. any remains - human & otherwise), as well as the fact that the reservoir water in S'pore is filtered, treated & chlorinated, before it reaches your tap.

As for the callous toxic remarks freely tossed around in this forum, do consider the following:

"There are so many ways of being despicable it quite makes one’s head spin. But the way to be really despicable is to be contemptuous of other people’s pain.

People who treat other people as less than human must not be surprised when the bread they have cast on the waters comes floating back to them, poisoned."
