For those of you who have fantasised about whether Singapore will ever survive a zombie apocalypse if one were to ever break out, it seems like we stand a good chance of dying -- as well as a good chance of surviving.

Who we are and what we are made of will be our greatest weakness -- and strength.

 

Here are 8 reasons against Singapore suriving a zombie apocalypse:

1. Too packed.

7,540 people per sq kilometer, infections will spread fast.

 

2. Too many blind corners.

Zombie surprise!

 

3. Surrounded by water.

Zombies + humans marooned on an island = No good

 

4. Massive bottlenecks.

A lot of underground vaults and subterranean places to hide. But super small entrances and exits.

 

5. High rise buildings.

6. No one owns guns at home.

What you going to do? Fight close range?

 

7. Flat terrain

You cannot even climb up a molehill to spot zombies in the horizon because there isn't even a molehill. Yes, there's Bukit Timah but how can many people can Bukit Timah take?

 

8. We cull stray dogs

Zombies are easy meals for packs of hungry dogs.

 

Here are 8 reasons for Singapore suriving a zombie apocalypse:

1. Hole yourself up in Mustafa Centre.

A few lifetimes of supplies awaits in there until help arrives.

 

2. The heat

Zombies won't stand a chance in Singapore's heat and humidity. They are, after all, rotting corpses.

 

3. The SAF can use zombies for target practice.

4. SARS crisis taught us how to quarantine

5. Gardens By The Bay

Lure them there, and snipe them from MBS.

 

6. Lure them underground

Seal the entrance.

 

7. Run down over with our cars.

And then bash their brains out.

 

8. Lock yourselves indoors and wait it out.

We have watched enough movies to know what not to do.
