SENGKANG RESIDENT COMPLAINS ABOUT HDB BLOCK LOOKING “MOULDY” AFTER ONLY 5 YEARS

0

A ESTATE JUST MOP , LOOK LIKE HAUNTED HOUSE. I NEED MORE VOICE BECOS MY VOICE ARE UNHEARD. TICKET SUBMITTED TO TOWN COUNCIL CLOSED WITHOUT PROPER REASON.

town council is responsible to maintain this area .
Sorry hor , this 2 years is super duper horrible.

A huge question : a HDB of 5 YEARS. just MOP.
Look like worse than 30 years old building.

is it possible to have such mouldy effect?
Even open window also mould on the external wall . Referred last 3 photo , that is from my window . Area near a river with forest downstair, near expressway .

Feedback to town council , their replied is wait for new paint coat which will take place in 2 years or later.

My son is asthmatic + chronic hives , ive tried dehumidifier , air purifier which costed 2k , hippo in all cupboard yet he have eyes allergy + nose issues. Exterior i totally cant help it.

Interior of flat are perfect fine! i must highlight it, there is no MOULD at my living room , room etc . I need them to buck up on the exterior.

Walk around the estate , the location are prefect , very cooling , comfortable.

I cant accept the ways TOWN COUNCIL highlighted to me , to ask me wait for another 2 years & closed my ticket.

See below comments of my old post, where do you find the location that is sooo green ?

Thanks for the tag. I had tried to comment on the original poster’s page, but commenting seemed to be turned off for me, so I’ll share what I sent directly to her (she had contacted me via our hotline, too). For starters, I agree that the state of the block is poor, and that is this disappointing. It does not look appealing, and for a block that is only 5 years old, it does look older than it should.

That said, it’s important to recognize why this is so. I’m not a building expert, but I’ve been told that one contributing factor could be the choice of paint. Many new builds do not utilize the most anti-mould paint available. During the first R&R exercise, these are often upgraded. That will be the plan for the cluster, as it has been for other clusters that SKTC has overseen R&R works for.

Another factor could be the location of the building. It is located beside a river, and receives a fair bit of direct sunlight. The condition described is mainly for the C and D blocks, but not A and B (which are less exposed). Since the cluster was built at the same time and is maintained by the same team, it suggests that the source of the problem lies beyond simply the quality of development by HDB, or maintenance by the town council.

All that said, it’s fair to ask if there is anything that we can do to help address the issue. I’ve been in communication with the town council, and we are working out a plan to accelerate the R&R works for this cluster, so that it will occur sooner than the usual 7-year cycle. This will be subject to approval, and there are the usual necessary procedures—designing the project, calling for open tender, and the like—that mean that the issue might not be addressed instantaneously. But rest assured that we’re working on it, and we will be keeping residents updated on the status in the meantime, and request their patience.

MAN DOESN’T KNOW HOW TO TELL GF WHO WANT KIDS THAT HE’S IMPOTENT

0

I am a 33-year-old man who has been in a committed relationship with my girlfriend for the past two years.

We have had many conversations about our future together, and I am confident that she is the one for me.

However, there is one problem that I have not been able to bring myself to tell her. I am impotent.

I do not know how to tell my girlfriend that I am impotent. It is not something that I am proud of, and it is something that has caused me a great deal of embarrassment and shame.

I have discussed having children with my girlfriend, and although she has not brought it up lately, I know that she has been thinking about it and is interested in having a family with me.

But how do I tell her that I am not able to have children with her? I do not want to hurt her, and I do not want to make her feel like less of a woman because of this.

I want her to know that she is loved and accepted for who she is, despite this limitation.

At first, I thought about trying to hide this from her and hope that she would never find out. But I know that is not the right thing to do. I have to tell her the truth and let her decide if she still wants to stay in the relationship with me.

I also have to make sure that I am honest with her about the possible options that she may have if she chooses to stay with me, such as adoption or surrogacy.

I am still unsure of how to go about this conversation with her. I am scared that she will not understand or accept me and our relationship will be over. But, I also know that I have to be honest and open with her if I want our relationship to work.

The first step is to think about how I am going to bring up the topic. Do I just come out and tell her, or do I try to ease into the conversation?

I think it would be best to start off by telling her how much I care for her and how much I want a family with her. Then, I can tell her that I have something that I need to tell her, and I can explain to her what is going on.

The second step is to figure out how to explain the situation to her. I want to make sure that she understands what is going on and why it is happening.

I also want her to know that I am still the same person, and that I still love her and want to be with her, despite this limitation.

Finally, the third step is to figure out what options are available to us if she still wants to stay in the relationship.

I want to make sure that we both have a clear understanding of what our future could look like, and I want her to be aware of the possible options that she may have if she chooses to stay with me.

I understand that this is not going to be an easy conversation, but I also know that it is something that I must do.

I want my girlfriend to know that I am still the same person that she fell in love with, and I want her to know that I am still committed to our relationship, despite this limitation.

GUY GOES HOLIDAY WITH HIS ‘XIAO SAN’, BUMPS INTO WIFE WITH HER ‘FRESH MEAT’

0

It was a holiday that I’ll never forget. I was with my ‘xiao san’, and we were having a great time exploring and enjoying the sights of our destination.

Little did I know, my wife had also decided to take a trip with her new ‘fresh meat’.

The day started off as any other. We were out exploring the city and taking in the beauty of our surroundings.

We were laughing and having a great time, completely oblivious to the fact that my life was about to take a major turn.

We were walking through a local market, enjoying the sights, smells, and sounds of the area.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, I heard a voice that I recognized. It was my wife, and she was with her new ‘fresh meat’.

At first, I was shocked. I couldn’t believe that my wife would be in the same city as me, especially with another man!

But then, I realized that it was a sign. It was time to finally confront her and let her know how I felt.

I knew that I couldn’t just walk up to them and start a fight. I took a deep breath and calmly walked over to them, introducing myself to her ‘fresh meat’ and politely saying hello to my wife.

I then asked her if we could talk in private. She agreed and we went to a nearby cafe.

We talked for what seemed like hours. I told her about my feelings, how hurt I was, and how I was trying to move on.

She listened intently, and then proceeded to tell me her side of the story.

My wife explained that she had been feeling lonely and neglected for a long time.

She said that she had been searching for someone to make her feel special and loved, and that her ‘fresh meat’ had been able to provide her with those things.

I was devastated. I had never thought that my wife would be capable of such betrayal.

But I also realized that I had made mistakes too, and that I had to take responsibility for them.

At the end of our conversation, I finally expressed my forgiveness and understanding and sought her forgiveness for cheating on her as well.

We hugged, and I wished her the best. We then went our separate ways and got a divorce when we were back.

BF CONTROLS WHAT GF WEARS BECAUSE HE DON’T WANT HER SHOW ‘LONGKANG’

0

I used to be a controlling partner. I thought I was doing the right thing by making sure my girlfriend dressed modestly, but I was wrong.

I thought that if I controlled what my girlfriend wore, it would stop other guys from looking at her ‘longkang’. I was wrong.

I tried to tell my girlfriend that she needed to dress more modestly when we went out.

I told her that if she wore something revealing, it would distract other guys and they would think badly of her.

I thought that if I kept her clothing choices conservative, I could keep her safe and protect her from unwanted attention.

At first, my girlfriend didn’t like it when I tried to control what she wore. She thought it was unfair and controlling.

She felt like I was trying to control her and make her feel ashamed of her body. She felt like I was trying to police her body and her choices.

I was wrong. By trying to control what my girlfriend wore, I was actually making her feel worse about herself.

I was telling her that her body was something to be ashamed of and that she needed to cover it up in order to be “acceptable”.

This was never my intention, but that’s how she felt.

It took me a while to realize how wrong I was. I realized that by trying to control what my girlfriend wore, I was actually making her feel worse about herself and her body.

She felt like I was policing her and making her feel ashamed of her body.

I realized that the best thing I could do was to accept her body and her choices. I accepted that if she wanted to wear something revealing, that was her choice.

I also realized that if other guys were looking at her ‘longkang’, that was their problem, not hers.

I also realized that no matter what she wore, there will always be people who will judge her. People are going to judge her no matter what she wears, and that’s something I can’t control.

The only thing I can control is how I treat her, and that is to accept her body and her choices.

I now realize that by trying to control what my girlfriend wears, I was only making her feel worse about herself and her body.

I now accept her body and her choices, and I no longer try to control what she wears. I accept that she is in control of her own body and her own choices.

MAN THINKS HE’S A DOG IN HIS PAST LIFE BECAUSE HE KEEPS DREAMING OF IT

0

I’ve been having some strange dreams recently. In these dreams, I am a dog.

I know that I am a dog in the dream and I’m aware of my canine identity.

I feel like I have been living a dog’s life for some time now and it’s been quite an interesting experience.

At first, I simply shrugged off the dreams as random, meaningless things that happen from time to time.

But then, I started having recurring dreams about being a dog, and the more I thought about them, the more I began to wonder if maybe I was actually a dog in a past life.

I have always been a big animal lover, and dogs have always been a special favorite of mine.

I have always felt a strong connection with them, so I thought that maybe this connection was an indication that I had been a dog in a past life.

I even started to recall certain memories of my life as a dog.

I remembered running through fields, chasing after squirrels and rabbits and other small animals. I remembered spending time with my owners and playing with them.

I remembered the warmth of the sun on my fur, and the smell of the grass and trees.

I also started to notice certain characteristics in myself that I associated with being a dog. I am fiercely loyal and protective of those I care about.

I have a strong sense of smell and hearing and I always seem to know when something is wrong.

The more I thought about it, the more I became convinced that I must have been a dog in my past life.

I started to do some research on the subject, and I was surprised to find that many people actually believe in reincarnation and that it is possible for a person to have lived multiple lives, including past lives as an animal.

I have also become more mindful of my dreams and I take the time to really examine them and analyze them.

I have found that when I do this, I can often find deeper meanings and connections in my dreams, which can help me to make sense of my experiences in this life.

So while I may never know for sure if I was a dog in my past life, I like to think that it’s possible and that my dreams are a way for me to connect with my animal past.

PRC DRIVER CAUSED FATAL ACCIDENT, KENA WHACK BY PUBLIC UNTIL HE BEGGED FOR MERCY

0

A 53-year-old Chinese national who allegedly caused a fatal accident on KM13 of the Jalan Klang-Banting-Port Dickson road, was beaten up by Malaysians until he had to beg for mercy.

He had allegedly caused the death of a delivery rider, who got run over by a lorry because of the man’s reckless driving.

District police chief of Kuala Langat, Supt Ahmad Ridhwan Mohd Nor @ Saleh, said in a statement that the accident occurred on 31 December at about 4.30pm, involving a number of vehicles.

The Chinese national was driving a Toyota Hilux and heading from Klang to Banting, when he made an illegal turn at a traffic light junction.

A 51-year-old retiree was was driving a Daihatsu Charade behind the China man, had to swerve to the left lane because he didn’t see an incoming SYM 110 motorbike from the same direction.

THe motorcycle then hit the front of the retiree’s car, resulting in the motorcyclist being thrown under a Volvo FM12 lorry on the left lane.

The motorcyclist, who worked as a delivery rider, succumbed to his injuries and died.

The China man was then purportedly dragged out of his vehicle and beaten up by the Malaysian crown until he started bleeding on his face.

He was seen in photos kneeling down and begging them for mercy, as one of the public members took a photo of his passport beside him, according to China Press.

The Malaysian police added that the China man is being investigated for driving without a valid driver’s license, as well as causing death by reckless or dangerous driving.

He also didn’t file a police report against the public members who assaulted him.

20 Y.O WHO RAPED 11 Y.O SISTER & ANOTHER 13 Y.O GIRL, GIVEN REFORMATIVE TRAINING

0

A man who raped his 11-year-old sister as well as another 13-year-old girl, was sentenced to 12 months of reformative training.

The now-20-year-old had assaulted his sister in the past, and raped his sister while she was sleeping before he got caught and released on bail, according to The Straits Times.

The then-secondary school student then raped another 13-year-old girl while he was out on bail.

He admitted to two counts of rape, as well as pleading guilty to a charge of assaulting his sister with penetration in June 2017 when the victim was only 8 or 9 years old, as well as another charge of voluntarily causing hurt to the victim in 2018.

He cannot be named or identified because of a court order protecting the identities of the victims.

Background

The accused lived in the same home as his sister, who was in primary school at the time, when he raped her on 29 January 2020.

The victim had initially opened her eyes to see what her brother was doing, but then closed her eyes and pretended to be sleeping because she was afraid he would hurt her if she reacted to his actions.

He was then released on bail on 1 February 2020, and he then reoffended in August that year, inviting a 13-year-old girl to meet him at his HDB block.

He met the victim at a staircase and he suddenly kissed the girl on the lips as they were talking, and the victim then tried to push him away but to no avail.

She then felt the accused inserting his tongue into her mouth, before he made her perform an explicit act on him before raping her.

The victim managed to kick him and fled the scene, before the accused texted her later that same day and told her not to tell anyone else what happened.

0

Former Singapore national football team defender Baihakki Khaizan, was seen laughing during Singapore’s 4-1 loss to Malaysia in the AFF Championship and was objectively crucified by netizens who called him out.

He was seen laughing while being seated with the Malaysian fans in the VIP section of the Bukit Jalil Stadium in Kuala Lumpur during the match.

The 38-year-old took to Facebook and Instagram to apologise for the incident, saying that he was laughing at a non-football related joke with those around him.

He said that he is sorry to those who misinterpreted the situation and that he was not laughing at anybody, and that “sometimes I think you are just unlucky, being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Baihakki’s statement

Hi guys,

I saw the footage about me laughing after full time. My apologies for the incident.. i was unlucky to be caught in a non-football related jokes with the malaysian fans during the photo session..

How i wish the camera showed the time i smashed the bottle when the goals went in. However, I’m sorry for the misunderstandings.

The boys did their best but Malaysia wanted it more and showed hunger for victory.

A video emerged online showing a family of 4 working together to pump petrol into their Singapore-registered car in Johor Bahru.

The family of 4, consisting of an elderly woman and three youngsters, performing “CPR” and bouncing their vehicle up and down while pumping.

They shook the car for about 2 minutes straight from the trunk, as a woman filled it up with petrol at Caltex.
