I’m sure many of our fellow citizens know about this news about the death of a cleaner in the Singapore Zoo. Malaysian, Nordin Montong from Sarawak who had been working in the zoo for 4.5 months,had jumped into the white tiger enclosure. He was seen shouting and flinging items shortly before he vaulted a low wall and landed in a moat in the enclosure.
Carrying a yellow pail and a broom, he walked up to where the tigers were resting and agitated them with the broom. As 2 of the tigers approached him, he covered his head with the pail, lay on the ground and curled himself in a foetal position. When the keepers finally reached him, he was already lying there motionless. He was bitten on the neck and suffered a fractured skull. He was already dead when the police arrived.

Colleagues later mentioned that he was acting strangely minutes before his death. The man said, “Goodbye, you won’t be seeing me again.” to them in Malay before riding off in his bicycle. Even though I wasn’t there, I am quite traumatised by this incident. The face, the video… Well anyway, I do not wish to upload the video here… But here’s a link for you to watch it… Viewer’s discretion is advised. Watch it here. Many, many thanks to Yat!

Btw, this incident happened 2 weeks ago.. and this post is for those who missed out on the articles (I know many did) and for those who have yet to watch the video..
