The Sentosa Development Corporation (SDC) on Monday said it had adhered to all emergency procedures after an Australian tourist was injured in an adventure ride accident just over a week ago.
The flying fox ride, one of the attractions at Sentosa's MegaZip Adventure Park, has been closed since Sept 11.
It will resume operations only after the authorities are satisfied that all safety considerations are in place, the SDC said.
