  A SET of skeletal remains has been uncovered by two land survey staff in the forest next to the Tanah Merah MRT station.

  The police were alerted to the discovery at about 3.15pm last Saturday. Officers found the remains of an unidentified person at a forested area along New Upper Changi Road, which is next to the MRT station.

  The Straits Times understands that some items were found near the remains, including a blue haversack and cash.

  According to Chinese daily Lianhe Wanbao, the skeleton was clad in a tattered black T-shirt.

  An old mobile phone and some cash were also found nearby.

  Indian foreign workers Pandi, 26, and Kumar, 32, who made the discovery, told the newspaper that it was difficult to tell if the deceased was male or female as the body had fully decomposed, leaving only the bones. A piece of rope was also found hanging on a tree branch about 4m away, according to the report.

  Not everybody can find bodies, only有缘人can find.  Have you people thought of what will you do if one day you stumble on a body or a heap of skeletons? Is it a crime for not reporting ?

  Instead of saying "suay" 衰人, I say 有缘人 sounds nicer. I also don't want. That is why I ask is it a crime to turn a blind eye, not to report.
