After conducting 153 tests across various water sources in The Parisian, the Health Services has confirmed that, despite three samples taken still having values over the limit, the exterior of the hotel and interior fountains were allowed to be re-opened, given that no samples of the bacteria were found at the two locations. The suspension of activities at the two zones was lifted June 2 and 6, respectively.
Two of the samples showing bacteria levels over the limit were in the bathrooms of the shopping area, while one was in a faucet of a hotel room.
Given that Sands China ‘invited water specialists from Singapore for a complete evaluation of the water supply system’ and that the ‘hotel is taking a variety of cleaning measures of the water system’ the Health Services now only request that the ‘hotel take the necessary precautions of cleaning and disinfection and continue to accompany the case, conducting new tests’.
Business Daily contacted Sands China but no response had been received by the time this went to press.
