Bomb shelters a must in all flats

**carbuncle** · 13-04-12, 12:35

Topic increasingly relevant on day 2 of NKorea rocket launch and China vs Philippines spat... Whether HS house shelter or SS storey shelter. Question: does everyone here actually know how to properly use a bomb shelter and the mandatory fixtures inside??

Is there a bomb shelter in landed houses?

**fclim** · 13-04-12, 13:10

Does/Has anyone here:
1. Stocked up on canned food in the bomb shelter?
2. Conducted regular drills with your family and get everyone into the bomb shelter within 20 secs or less? Day and Night drills. One Thousand, Two Thousand....

3. Tried closing the door and stayed inside for 20 minutes with your family?
4. Tried using your mobile phone in there?

Hell no. Cos it is choke full of stuff and the maid's bed in the first place. hahaha..

Bomb shelter is a screwed up govt policy. Basically e govt expect everyone to stay at home while there r bombings ard. Given e smaller family size, bomb shelters shd b smaller without affecting e quality of life inside e bomb shelters.

If there is a fire in the house and you cannot get out, that is the best place to be in.

No need. Rich landed owners can afford the luxury of getting buried directly in the soil after kena bombed...

Quality of life inside bomb shelters.... Sounds somewhat amusing...

haha sure anot? What if I tell you the shelter is fire rated and air tight? Most people die of smoke inhalation rather than being burnt.

**ikan bilis** · 13-04-12, 13:40

possible to run out of oxygen inside ??...

How long can you survive inside if its really airtight. Oh ya maybe a fart can save our lives as it is extra gas containing oxygen...

Long enough for SCDF to come. Better than being outside or jumping off the building..

Oh ya, maybe toilet better since you like to fart often.

One fart does not often make... Come on, dont tell me there is a day go by you dont fart at all...

**carbuncle** · 13-04-12, 15:24

Actually, how many ventilation ports does your shelter have? Mine got 2

**ikan bilis** · 13-04-12, 15:29

**Rosegarden** · 13-04-12, 15:59

During an air raid, is it better to hide in a home shelter 10 or 20 storeys up in the air, or run for your lives on the ground? What's your preference and why?

Landed also have HS lah. Older ones don't have, but new ones must have

Although some get around the requirement by keeping a few columns and call it "reconstruction"...

Hide in HS on ground floor unit- may not survive the knocking and rolling about in high floor HS which comes tumbling down...

**roly8** · 13-04-12, 16:23

See below page last para for sg specific rationale. Oh boy is not even to guard against major air strikes... Only localised explosive. They based the whole concept on the premise that buildings will not collapse during times of strife....

Home shelter of course and take my chance from there. Where would you run to on the ground? You can run provided you know where the bombs and debris are going to land. In reality, you don't, so anywhere on the ground except a bomb shelter is not safe.

Buildings collapsing? Not unless it is a nuclear bomb.

Nothing is foolproof. The best is to live in landed and build your own home shelter the size of your living room, deep in the ground, with at least 36 inches of dirt and soil above it. Stocked it up with food and equip it with radio and TV. That would cost you about $100K? Would you do it?

R u waiting for enemy to land and slaughter u in e HS? Singapore lacks strategic depth for defence. Recall Singapore fell easily once Japanese hit e shore n secured e reservoirs. I wld fly my family out of Singapore if war becomes inevitable.
