A resident, Angel Yong, complained about how the ledge at her corridor beside her HDB block’s rubbish chute has been the dumping grounds for smokers for many months.
She shared photos showing the disgusting sight of the cigarette butts filling up the space.
She alleged that since February 2021, no enforcement actions have been taken despite her emails.

A video emerged online showing a YP in a very curious position.
He lifted his legs up to the back of his head and held it there with his hands.
A netizen commented that he was fulfilling his lifelong dream of becoming a cockroach.
Another commented that he finally did what no man could do, look at his own butt in person.
Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong announced in his National Day Rally Speech yesterday that Singapore will be passing a new law on racial harmony, to complement it’s existing law.
The new law will be called the Maintenance of Racial Harmony Act.
The new law will put together the government’s powers in handling racial issues while at the same time incorporating “softer and gentler touches”.
PM Lee said:
“Each new generation has its own perspective on racial issues. Older Singaporeans lived through Singapore’s independence journey. They think: discussions can become disputes, disputes can become quarrels, better don’t talk about such things too much.
Younger Singaporeans didn’t personally experience the racial tensions and riots of our early years. Their living experience has been largely racial peace and harmony. They believe: we are mature and stable now. We want to improve the status quo. We must talk about racial and religious issues more openly, and relook our policies and assumptions afresh.
These generational differences in views are perfectly understandable and should be accommodated.”
He also added that Singapore is very much exposed to external racially motivated issues like the Black Lives Matter movement.
He added:
“Our own circumstances and context are completely different, and these are not our quarrels, but they do affect our people.”
“We should do so with caution, because race and religion will always be highly sensitive issues. We have to take the time to discuss respectfully, make sure everybody understands, and build a consensus before we make any move.”
PM Lee also added that “Chinese privilege” in Singapore is “baseless”.

A video emerged online showing an auntie stopping her car in the middle of the road.
She was purportedly stopping her car to answer a call.
The traffic was blocked and cars behind had to drive around her by going in the opposite lane.
A 13-year-old shared how she was asked by a 19-year-old man to be his girlfriend.
He offered her $1,000 and said that he wants to “hug” her, be her “first kiss” and give her “alot kisses (SIC)”.
The girl’s family then baited him out and confronted him in real life, and the man then ran away whilst being chased by her family and some members of the public.
The man was eventually caught and pinned down to the ground.
Here is the story:
I have a boyfriend that my parents don’t know about and recently I found out that I’m pregnant.
My parents keep telling me to focus on studying and graduate uni first that’s why they don’t allow me to date, anyone, now. I did hint to them that times have changed but they got so angry with me and even threatened to chase me out of the house.
My parents are very traditional and to them having a degree is like a number 1 thing for students. To them, Without proper education aka a degree, how can I raise a child properly. I’m so lost and don’t know what should I do now. I love my parents but I really hope they’ll listen to what I have to say also.
Anyone can give some advice on this?
