  SINGAPORE: Another Singaporean has died after being hit by a falling tree in Mount Ophir, Johor.
  
  48-year-old Abdul Razak Abdul Hamid, a security officer at the Changi Airport, was killed at about 10pm on Saturday when a tree fell on him following a storm.
  
  Muar police said a post-mortem showed the cause of death was massive abdominal and chest injuries.
  
  Mr Abdul Razak leaves behind a wife and three children.
  
  According to the Malaysian Star newspaper, he had gone to the mountain with 11 other Singaporeans.
  
  He was killed not far from where a Singaporean climber died on May 15 after being hit by a falling tree.
  
  27-year-old trainee teacher Mohammad Rohaizam Tumadi was asleep in a tent when the incident happened at 5.15am.
  
  He suffered severe head injuries and was pronounced dead on arrival at the Tangkak Hospital. - CNA/ir

  i'm really wondering about something... cause lets say, if i cause a car accident and damaged government properties like lamp post, signboards, trees etc, i have to pay fine to government right?
  
  then what if all these government properties cause damage to innocent people properties or even lifes? dun they have to pay us???

  You'd be surprised but yes. If you drive your car and knock into a tree, prepared to pay a 7k fine

  I heard from duno where that we can sue the government or who, for fallen trees which caused damage.
  
  One saturday, one tree fell and crushed into my neighbour's house and it caused damage to the roofs and walls.
