WP makes the PAP government looks so incompetent

DBSS residents petition AHPETC to waive fees

More than 300 residents of a new Housing Board development have signed a petition calling on the Aljunied-Hougang-Punggol East Town Council (AHPETC) to waive their service and conservancy charges (S&CC) between last November and this month.

These residents of the 680-unit Parkland Residences, a Design, Build and Sell Scheme (DBSS) project, said they should not pay the fees to the Workers' Party-run town council as it took over the management and maintenance of the property only on June 1.

Before that, the project's developer, Kwan Hwee Investment, had to step in to clean the common areas. But some residents complained about dirty corridors and rats, among other problems. The amount they want waived is up to $455.

The petition was initiated by corporate travel manager Melinda Teo, 37, who, with the help of fellow residents, collected the signatures last weekend. It was submitted to the town council yesterday.

Ms Teo said about 90 per cent of the residents she met signed the petition as they felt like her: "Why should I pay the town council for work they did not do?"

The law requires town councils to manage and maintain common property in public housing estates, including DBSS projects.

But in a May 28 letter to some residents, the HDB said AHPETC had "refused to perform its duty" unless the developer handed over certain documents and items.

HDB said these were not required for AHPETC to carry out cleaning and maintenance. But it worked with the developer to provide the documents, and asked the developer to clean the estate in the interim, it added.

The HDB letter also informed the residents that S&CC fees were not being collected on its behalf.

Last week, WP chief Low Thia Khiang, an MP for Aljunied GRC, said in a newsletter to residents that there was "room to improve the handover procedures between the developer, HDB and the town council".

He also said part of the fees would be used to reimburse the developer for cleaning services during the interim period and part of it transferred to the sinking fund. AHPETC did not respond to queries last night.

You can see the PAP 'fix-the-opposition' finger in this.

Residents want a waiver of fees, developer wants WP TC to pay ...and the government doesn't want to release funding require by law to WP TC.

Who cho-cho the residents to initiate this?

PAP TC closes one eye to the incompetence of HDB, so required documents for transfer are never in order.

With the WP TC, HDB couldn't get away with it. Yet, it blames the WP TC for the snafu.

Will hari-kiri ministar, please commit hari-kiri. Your incompetence can't be tolerated any longer.

Firstly ah, we don't vote based on blocks. So, your question is very stupid.

Secondly, the fault is with HDB. Why doesn't it ensure that the proper paper work is completed before handover? Why should WP TC accept liability before the legal documents are properly done?

Would you be that stupid to move into your flat before completion of the paper work? If you won't, why do you think the WP TC should take over responsibility in this case?
