Waterway Point Gets a New (Drenched) Nickname from TikTok
Everyone thought Waterway Point was named because it’s right beside the Punggol Waterway. Turns out the mall’s new title spilled out of an unexpected place—yes, from a TikTok video.
How the Leak Made Headlines
On Monday, December 13th, TikTok user @joysuki2515 posted a quick six‑second clip. It caught a sudden water drip from the ceiling, forming a big puddle right outside a basement store.
Adding some drama (and a little humor), two “Safe Distancing Ambassadors” appeared in the frame, waving their arms as if they were about to call in the fire brigade.
Thanks to that dramatic splash, the clip zoomed past 177,000 views, turning the moment into a viral sensation.
What TikTok Fans Are Saying
- “I guess Waterway Point is more like LeakyWay Point now!”
- “Mall‑waterfall? At least this place gets its own rainfall!”
- “Did the mall appoint a new mascot, the ‘Waterway Whisperer’?”
Even the mall’s name is getting a fresh twist thanks to the viral video. Whether you’re a mall‑hopper or a TikTok follower, the news is sure to make you chuckle.
Waterway Point’s Unexpected Basement Showdown
Picture this: it’s a crisp Monday morning, and the Waterway Point basement is buzzing as usual. Suddenly, at 10:45 am, a rebellious kitchen waste pipe decides it’s time to party. Instead of the usual quiet, the pipe bursts open and sends a tidal wave of water crashing into the common area.
What Went Down?
- Leak source: A broken kitchen waste pipe.
- Time stamp: Around 10:45 am.
- Affected zone: Basement 2’s shared spaces.
Who’s at the Rescue?
Security personnel and service staff sprang into action, lending a helping hand to shoppers and retailers alike. Think of them as the Base‑Level Band, ready to patch things up and keep the flow going.
Mission Completion
By 3:30 pm, the area was drenched but finally dry. The cleanup crew had finished sprucing up the spot, and everyone could breathe easy again.
Past Leak Memories
It turns out this wasn’t the first time Basement‑level drama had the mall community ruffling their feathers. Last year, a similar mishap at Basement 1 of Jewel Changi Airport had tenants spending about 30 minutes standing in the obvious “who‑ops” sludge.
So, if you’re planning a trip to Waterway Point, keep a towel handy and maybe double-check that your basement isn’t about to start a new water‑feature trend.
