SINGAPORE - Several shops at the two basements of Nex shopping mall in Serangoon reopened for business on Monday after suspending operations on Sunday due to water leakage.

When The Straits Times visited Nex on Monday morning, the area in front of the Food Republic foodcourt - which was operational - was cordoned off and water was dripping slowly from the ceiling.

The choke was resolved by 11pm, but the remnant water continued to leak from the unit and affected some tenants across the basements, the spokesman said. "When I arrived at 8.15am, I couldn't enter the shop. The mall's management said it was too dangerous to open," said the worker in her 60s.An Oriental Herbal Tea manager said the shop also had to close on Sunday but declined to comment further.

"It was like it was raining indoors. I thought it was a toilet leak as the water was brown," he added."You can still see the water damage on the ceiling."Mr Tay said business fell by about 15 per cent as the escalator from basement two and several entrances, including one from Serangoon MRT station, were cordoned off.

"The water was slightly brown. There's still a pungent smell in the air but our equipment and ice cream were not affected."
