These plants planted next to a pedestrian walkway are covered with sharp thorns, says STOMPer Resident. Walk too close to them and you could be in for a painful experience.
Here's what the concerned STOMPer wrote in an email today (Aug 23):
"This picture was taken at the junction of Bukit Batok East Avenue 6 and Bukit Batok Street 22.
"Planted beside the walkway are some plants with very sharp thorns and if you are not careful these thorns can cause you a lot of pain and discomfort.
"Plants planted near public walkways should not be a hazard to pedestrians. I hope this plant can be removed."
