Crash of Nicoll Highway
Sigh.
The more I listen to/watch/read the news of the crash of Nicoll Highway, the sadder and more despondent I get. I practically cry every night...and this is no drama. This is -reality-. Something I thought will never happen to Singapore has happened, and I still can't bring myself to believe it. Whenever I read about the children and spouses of the deceased, I feel an overwhelming sense of sympathy for them. To just see your dad alive and kicking one night, and dead the following night DUE TO CRASH OF A HIGHWAY is.......horrendous. The two siblings interviewed...I felt so sad for them. Features distorted beyond imagination...and they had to face it without going into hysterics. The smses the elder daughter sent to her dad was so heart wrenching...I was like tearing for their whole family.
And I felt so sad for Mr. Heng...his body will actually lie under the buried rocks forever. Oh man. His family didn't even get to see his body for the last time. [Which makes me wonder what condition his body is like..considering the state the last body found was in...] I mean, it is understandable why they had to start reparation work, but...but...if he really wasn't dead yet, then he was practically buried alive! God, I really hope he didn't die too painfully. Sigh. May him rest in peace.
Sigh. The good dies young, huh?
