White Christmas? Foamy water flows out of drain, soaks Ang Mo Kio HDB flat

It became a white Christmas of sorts after an elderly couple in Ang Mo Kio found parts of their flat flooded when foamy water flowed out of from their balcony drain. Ng, 77, and his wife Li, 74, noticed that foamy water was continuously seeping out from their balcony drain on Monday (Dec 25). As a result, the balcony and parts of the living room of their sixth-floor unit at Block 710, Ang Mo Kio Ave 8 were flooded for about 2 hours. Speaking to AsiaOne, Ng suspects that the cause of this incident was a blockage in the drainpipe and heavy rain on Monday. The couple said they immediately contacted the Ang Mo Kio Town Council for help and eventually, two plumbers were sent over to dredge it. The drain stopped spewing water only after it was dredged and the foamy water flooding the flat receded shortly. Not their first rodeo This is the third time since September this year that they have had this issue, but previous instances were not as severe, Ng told Shin Min Daily News.  However, Ng and Li are starting to get worried.
