Singapore Flash Flood vs Flood in USA Hurricane Sandy

After a heavy rain in Singapore this afternoon 31 Oct 2012, couldn't help but to compare the 2 floods that are happening almost on the same day.  What a vast difference!
Are we going to complain about the flash floods after watching the videos below?

Reader Derrick Tan took this video of a flash flood along Balestier Road 
outside Boon Tong Kee restaurant in the afternoon of 31 Oct 2012.





This flash flood is indeed powerful, a car was "drifted away for 50m" near Nanyang Technological University on 31 Oct 2012.

昨天中午全岛各地下起狂风暴雨,南洋理工大学校园一带发生车祸,两辆汽车疑雨天路滑,在交界处相撞,其中一辆车竟然撞破路旁沟渠的护栏,一头栽进大沟渠。

由于雨势猛烈,沟渠水流湍急,"汽车被冲走50米",车中当时还有司机和一名乘客。所幸这两人成功自行爬出车外,死里逃生。掉落沟渠的汽车过后也被民防拖出。南大受询时证实,车祸双方的司机和乘客都是南大学生,两名司机都安然无恙,乘客则受轻伤,但医护人员现场施救,无需送院。两名司机也已同意私下处理此事。( Lian He Wan Bao )
