With HDB’s units right beside each other, we can often hear noises if our neighbours are too loud.
Most of the time people will ignore it and bear with it until the noise is over. But not for this Yishun resident.
“KPKB! I want sleep!”
In the video, he recorded someone singing from the bathroom and he could hear it from his unit.
He then shouted “Oi!, diam la, people want to sleep lah KPKB!“
Here are what people don’t know about noise-related offences:
If a resident is continuously noisy the neighbours have the right to file a claim with Community Dispute Resolutions Tribunal in the State Courts.
If the plaintiff wins the case they are able to seek damages from the defendant.
Previously, In 2017 a Clementi resident had a similar kind of dispute and was ordered to pay the plaintiff almost $2,000 in damages.
Here are what netizens think:
