If any of the condos use public funds for their repairs, they should be made to open up some of their facilities to public.

Beginning with the private condos along Dunearn Road

CECAs are snakes even at Mandarin Gardens. Who support these rats as a traitor?

Up to 40% of residents/tenants of Mumbai Gardens are CECAs.

There are many visitors using our swimming pool, gym, tennis courts and BBQ pits; especially on weekends. Most are friends of residents, but there are trespassers who merely follow residents in by the back entrances to use the pool and gym.

The public should be allowed in officially if MCST take public funds. No free lunch. If condo residents not happy, they pay up and top up the sinking funds

Did the prices of Mumbai Gardens go down?

Judging from the number of tenants paying between $6K - $10K monthly rental at condos along Bukit Timah and Dunearn Road, CECAs are earning far more than the typical S'porean PMET.

The starting salary of Xiaxue’s ex Husband who is an Ang mo was ard sg$6500 in 2009. That is a lot for a junior engineer those days and CECAs are earning way more and their companies paying for their rent and children’s international school fees

All CECA Indians are snakes, not only in Mandarin Garden

If CECAs are paying between $6K - $10K in monthly rental for condo units along Bukit Timah and Dunearn Road, you can bet that their salaries are more than double their rental. Even if their employers are paying for the rent, these CECAs must be occupying high professional or management positions to receive such perks.

All Indians (including S'poreans) are snakes, but CECAs are double-headed snakes with poisonous fangs.

We know why more CECAs like Ramesh are flooding in

There are much earlier cases like the 5 Malays on PMDs who assaulted a lone middle-aged Chinese woman who advised them not to speed on the footpath. I am looking forward to see how the judge deals with these "terrorists on PMDs".

Lying and playing the victim come naturally to CECAs; it is in their genes.

Aging condos will not get public funds for lift maintenance, renovation and redecoration works - BCA

Government co-funding will be targeted at safety upgrades for older lifts, to add safety features that were not available when they were installed. These include systems to prevent lifts from moving unless the doors are fully closed and secured, or to automatically stop them if they move upwards too quickly.

“We do not intend for (co-funding) to be used to support R&R and maintenance works, or to pay for the costs of general lift repairs or lift replacements,” BCA said. “Such costs should be funded from the private development’s sinking and maintenance funds.”

The problem with ageing condos is that the lifts usually become obsolete i.e. no more spare parts, so the entire system has to be overhauled. That may cost more than $10K per household, so the ground floor units will definitely vote against this. In fact, some elderly retirees staying in higher floors may also not be in favour of a refurbishment because they cannot afford it.
