  When did that happen?
  
  On the front page of Friday's edition of Berita Harian, the article about massive floodings over at Geylang/Paya Lebar, had a picture of a Habit Bendy Bus of Service 61, being pushed by 10 students from the nearby Geylang Vocational Institute at Jalan Turi.
  
  On the front page of Straits Times edition on the same day, a picture of passengers alighting from a Service 28 Mark 3 bus accompanied the report on the floodings.

  Here you go... I couldn't believe it happened just outside my place, but I was in school then. My brother said the scene was like a large lake.

  Thanks a million for the picture Yusry. Never have thought the floods was that serious. And to think this was the second widespread flooding in less than a week. See how bad the Geylang floods were.
