A motorcyclist parked her motorcycle at One Raffles Place and was charged $48.07, leaving her in a state of shock.
She shared that she was attending a SkillsFuture course at Raffles Place but had trouble looking for a place to park.
She parked for a total of 9 hours form 9am to 6pm.
Here is what she shared:
“I was riding my motorcycle and circulating buildings in the vicinity for a place to park as I am not familiar with the place.”
“I noticed that many buiildings did not allow motorcycle parking.”
“I came by One Raffles Place’s back lane and saw its carpark did not have a sign that motorcycles could not enter so I entered to park.”
“I also noted there was no indication on motorcycle parking fees so I thought it would be free.”
“I was shocked to see the parking fee was close to $50, an amount that no riders would have in their CashCard.”
“Five minutes later, the security came with a CashCard and said I have to pay him cash.”
“He assisted in lifting the barrier after inserting his CashCard.”
“This sum for riders is hefty and not many riders can afford to pay such amount, especially those who are making ends meet amidst the pandemic.”
“I was shocked that motorcycles are charged the same amount as cars.”
“I wrote to the management at One Raffles Place to appeal to pay half the fees.”
“However, they were not flexible even when I explained my predicament and that the carpark sign did not properly indicate parking fees for motorcycles.”
“I would like to highlight this and alert other victims who have to pay so much for parking after earning a day’s hard work.”
“I am sure this is not the first time as the security had his cash card readily.”
We recently posted a video about an Army instructor confronting a member of the public with expletives after the member of the public approached him to mask up when talking to his recruits at Pasir Ris interchange.
The Ministry of Defence (MINDEF) issued a statement on the incident on Tuesday (July 27), saying that the Singapore Armed Forces have completed investigations into this matter.
They confirmed that the man in question is a SAF Commander and that he did not comply with Safe Management Measures (SMMs) while addressing Basic Military Training recruits.
MINDEF has said that the commander will be disciplinarily dealt with.
“SMMs are critical to ensure the safe conduct of the SAF’s training and operations, and our commanders are expected to set a positive example as well as enforce those rules to protect themselves and their trainees,” MINDEF added.
We wonder what kind of punishment would he receive as well.
