On Saturday, Singapore's icon, The Merlion was struck by lightning. Part of its mane fell off, crashing to the floor. The Merlion stop spouting water many hours after. Today, in the news papers, on the front page of The Straights Times shows a picture of the Merlion being caged up. Contractors were engaged to repair the Merlion, and the public is still not allowed to access the 36 year old icon at the mouth of the Singapore River. What exactly has the Merlion done wrong to deserve to be struck by lightning, caged up, and isolated.

  1. I felt pity of the merlion because it was just 36 year old and it gets strucked by the lightning.
