In their relentless pursuit for greater profiteering, the ‘good office’ of the Hammerrhoid Town Council continues to create more inconvenience, more anxiety to the hawkers, patrons and residents as they experiment around with their ‘new cleaning invention’:
WP town council, hawkers reach agreement

Instead of sparing some of their peanuts on setting scaffolding so that the hawker centre could be thoroughly and properly cleaned at one single cleaning session in shorter time, the Hammerrhoids insist on cutting cost for greater profiteering and are toying the hawkers’ daily lives with their ‘new cleaning invention’ which involves many cleaning sessions and taking even longer time.
Now the Blk 511 hawker centre ‘will have its floor and tables cleaned later this month, and its ceiling cleaned next month.’ This is absolutely unnecessary and wasting hawkers’ time. All the cleaning could have been done in one single month at one cleaning session. Yet the Hammerrhoids have to break up the cleaning session into two. Talk about efficiency! “First World Productivity”!
Worse, if the tables and floor were to be cleaned this month, and then the ceiling were to be cleaned later next month, all the dirt will fly all over the market when the ceiling were cleaned. Then the Hammerrhoids will still have to re-clean the tables and floor again. Isn’t this wasting everybody time and money?
And how about this:
‘The cleaning of the high areas would be done when there are "not many customers around" and "in segments”’.
How big is one hawker centre? 1 football field? 5 football fields or 10 football fields? And how many segment can 1 small little hawker centre be possibly divided? To clean the high ceiling of a small hawker centre, even if it’s to be done in many, many tiny segment, it will still affect the other segments. And how many customers will dare to eat in 1 small little hawker centre when other segment is undergoing cleaning? Will anyone want to risk their health and hygiene, eating their food while the dirt from the nearby segment flying around?
If they are cleaning the ceiling without scaffolding, then they must be using long poles to do so. So dirt and dust will have to fly around all over the small hawker centre even if it is to be divided in segment.
And will the stalls still be canavas when cleaning is done in segment? If no, how the dirt not fly into the stall and into the patrons’ food when the ceiling is cleaned? If yes, how can the hawker be worked, cooked and breathed inside the canvas?
“When are there are not many customers around”? How about those few customers who happen to be around? They have to sacrifice their health and hygiene when the Hammerrhoids are doing their ceiling cleaning. If they were to be chased away, it would be unfair to the hawkers as they would be deprived their income.
Again, all these inconvenience and anxiety which the Hammerrhoids are deliberately causing to the hawkers and all their patrons and residents can be totally avoided if the ‘good office’ of the Hammerrhoid Town Council has not been so possessed in chasing greater profiteering at the expense of public safety and hygiene.
Spend the money on scaffolding and clean the whole hawker centre in one cleaning session and in the shortest possible time instead of breaking up into many cleaning sessions that would take even longer time.
Think about public hygiene and safety first, before profiteering.

….. The parties present agreed that the food centre at Block 511 will have its floor and tables cleaned later this month, and its ceiling cleaned next month. Block 630, Bedok Reservoir Road, will be cleaned from top to bottom later this month.
Block 511's hawker association secretary Chan Kheng Heng said they were told that the cleaning of the high areas would be done when there are "not many customers around" and "in segments”.
