Geology

 Singapore is not only home to flooding, but landslides and mudslides as well. Any country that has significant amount of rain and loose dirt is bound to have mass wasting. Although Singapore is relatively flat when it comes to topography, there are still areas that can have slides. Landslides and mudslides occur on lands that are sloped. When rainfall exceeds more than 189mm of rain, the chance of landslide becomes higher. The image below shows a picture of the Clementi landslide. Located at a construction sight, this landslide happened because of soil failure. Rainfall caused the soil to become to heavy causing a landslide that would block major drainage systems. If a landslide were to occur nearby, always listen to city officials, avoid the damage area, and make sure you have a plan in mind in terms of transportation. Landslides often block roads, limiting transportation. For more information on Singapore and its mass wasting risks: View the following links:  https://www.mnd.gov.sg/
