SINGAPORE'S iconic Merlion statue, was damaged by lightning on Saturday afternoon during a thunderstorm, causing parts of the statue to fall near a group of startled visitors.
The very symbol of Singapore got struck by lighting.
This could be a very bad omen for the even worse times to come. A very bad year for 2009.
