With their strong arm tactic, need you ask ?? Of course it is PAP. What irk me is that the guy actually say, the law requires us to pay up. I ask him not to mention law since the law allow him to sit there and do nothing and expect the people to just pay up... it not fair to poor people like us !!!Originally posted by TIB1133B:Is it a PAP town council
Originally posted by ORIGAMIST:My town council didn't sweep our common area for the last three months. Since there is much litter around, no body care to complain. But when you miss paying the fee, they are very quick to give warning letter. Then that is about the time, the staff will pay visit to you to ask you to pay....
No lah... my block each floor only got 6 houses. Not much people moving around except going to lift only, so doesn't look that bad. but I realised the floor was not sweep as the tissue paper had been lying at the same place for 3 months. They claims not possible because monthly they wash, I challenge them to come and see but before they come, one blangadish came and sweep the place... clever huh ?....Originally posted by crazy monkey:3 mths ? rubbish overflowing liao.

Photos don't lie. If they are confronted with such proof, it is hard to deny. Better still, if you had taken the photos, you could have sent them to the press.Originally posted by gerrykoh:U should have taken a photo as proof.
Go & see the MP if problem persist.
SP computer system screwed, still wanna squeeze you all dry? Fark them.Originally posted by ORIGAMIST:The litter problem, I did want to do that. But thought they are capable to rebluff that. I don't know how many of you had tried to see the MP. You have to repeat so many times what is your problem and the lackey will try to solve for you. Only when you insist, then they will come to your house and tell you what time to be there to see the MP. I got one this experience with regard to SP problem. Guess what, the MP say SP now privatise, not too good for Government to interfere. SP got right to cut water and electricity supply if we don't pay. But then the problem started with SP computer system that did not deduct from GIRO for don't know how many months. Then ask we one shot pay over $2 k. How to afford when now only my wife working..... ? The meeting with the MP ( who is also a Minister) was a great dissappointment. !!
So asking to see MP, who incidentally is in charged of the Town Council, is not going to help you much... That's my two cents worth .....![]()
Went down to their HQ to plead for a installment plan. They treat you like dirt. Appointment made and they make you wait. Then say they have no appointment with you. You give them names as who asked us to go down, they then say PIC in meeting, want to wait or not. About an hour, cannot wait, go back to counter to be served by counter staff. Counter staff will tell you how much to pay per month, They don't care you can afford or not. It's like take it or leave it. Not happy, go wait for officer.... I left without having any arrangement made. I did not meet their installment demand, they send lawyer letter, then they came and cut off electricity. After still no payment, they reduce water supply.Originally posted by iveco:SP computer system screwed, still wanna squeeze you all dry? Fark them.![]()
Can see... but the things is, the way they behave is like we cannot do without them.. you know, every little bit we go to MP. If we can solve, why bother to go to MP... In the first place, problem arises from the civil services.... then we get suck into their stupid system. You expect them to reprimand their own people, no they don't. Instead they go round and round until you gave up.... So call MP working for you. Mind you they are paid just to be MP siting in parliament to listen to debats. And you don't have to attend to all the sessions too. Isn't that good money. CAn't even help a poor soul who need help ....Originally posted by ejl:Insider info: Actually no use seeing MP. They only assist if you're illiterate and can help you write some petitions in English. Since you obviously can write in English, do it yourself. Save waiting time and talking to the lackey.
I had written two or three times to ST but letter never got published. Maybe, English not good or topic too damageing... Give up writing to press....Originally posted by nightzip:hmmm write to Today forum or ST. forum and "expose" them!
these people never do job and just collect money from us!...![]()
Singapore press only published what the regime wants to see. No use writing to them. For the true picture of life as a poor Singaporean, look for Sammyboy.Originally posted by ORIGAMIST:I had written two or three times to ST but letter never got published.
