MORE than 100 residents gathered at a local playground yesterday to voice their objections to a foreign worker dormitory planned for Serangoon Garden

Good luck to you all living in S'goon Gardens. You can protest but to no avail. S'pore does not has enough space for these foreign talents to live. Next time round,the govt will ask you to rent them your rooms to let these FTs learn how to fit in.

Looks like Serangoon Gardens will have to be redrawn to a new GRC. Aljunied GRC was a bit shaky the last GE. Merge it into Marine Parade for maximum safety.

Good news. Serangoon Gardens will be very happening soon. I heard xiao wei is going to tramp on this turf. The residents will have more varieties to choose from.

"They called for the complex to be fenced in and suggested shuttle buses be arranged on weekends to ferry workers to places like Bishan or Ang Mo Kio Central."
Well.. ferry them to places other than their own. This speaks volumes of the mentality these people have.

AMK residents! Don't waste time. Go direct and talk to your heavyweight minister lah!

My objection to the dorm has never been just about the welfare of Gardeners, but also the welfare of Singaporeans of every creed living in Singapore.

Changing the way in or out of that dorm compound is just shifting the problem from one place to the other. It doesn't resolve the problem. AMK residents should voice their concerns if they have any, and I am sure they do have concerns.

The idea of having a dorm there is just poor planning. It's like wearing a dress for a cocktail party, and then putting on flip-flops to go with it.

I have a feeling that the dorm's go-ahead has to do with Mr Mah's ego. He most probably made the decision a long time ago, and refused to give in to the wishes of the residents of SG. In addition, I think only Mr Mah could have come up with such a silly and simplistic 'solution' to the problem - Serangoon Gardeners not happpy? Oh, just change the exits lah.

Mr Mah has a record of making simplistic policies - 'Oh, traffic jam ah? Just increase the price for using the road lah.'

I have to clarify before I get sued, though. The above is just my hunch as to what transpired. It may or may not be a fact, so please don't sue me for just making a guess without evidence. Thanks.

I suppose if the plan by the government is to increase the plot ratio of Serangoon Garden to build a 5-star luxury apartment at the same site, the residents at SG will not be complaining about the trucks, crane, noise, traffic congestion, bus load of foreign workers going in and out of the site and most of all, the ang mohs who will come live next to them as neighbours, sharing the same food court and shopping center.

I am glad that I am not living at SG. I cant imagine myself having to put up with such a self centered community

We must learn to love one another and any other who help build our concrete infrastructures. Feel for others , feel for us too. welcome all to stay in Serrangoon Garden, Seranggon Central, Serangoon Ville, anywhere in Singapore is just nice and safe all the same.

Wecome to a Healthy and Wealthy Singapore too

Why must a 5-star luxury apartment house only ang mohs? Indians, PRC Chinese, Arab expats could live there. Some people have yet to understand that this is not about 'white being better'. I am sure the Gardeners would not want ang mohs who look like they would rape them as neighbours either.


But it would've been good if Mr Mah had thought that foreign workers would not be able to put up with such a self-centred community. Whether this thought is wrong or right, at least if Mr Mah had that thought, the gahmen might not have decided to build that dorm there.
