Elderly man drowned after absconding from welfare home, prompting tightened measures on missing residents
SINGAPORE - A 70-year-old man drowned at the Changi Beach Park after he absconded from a welfare home where he was staying, but the police was not immediately informed that he had gone missing.
The death of Poh Hwe Chee - a resident at the Tembusu Home at Pelangi Village at Buangkok Green - on Nov 9 last year has prompted the authorities to tighten procedures when welfare home residents go missing or unaccounted for.
