If all opt out, how much will be the loss of revenue to finance Ho Ching's gambling habit?

Mailbox window flap bolted but still flooded with fliers
SINGPOST owes residents of HDB flats and condominiums an explanation: How is it possible for fliers and other junk mail to enter our mailboxes when the window flap is bolted from the inside?
I would like the Sing Post to explain what else we, as well as the organisation, can do to stop this pervasive nuisance?

Junk-proof mailbox but master lock left unlocked
MY PRECINCT in Clementi Block 320 has just completed its upgrading scheme.
Apart from the upgrading, all the mailboxes were changed to the new junk mail-proof type where residents can lock or unlock the flap. All flaps are in turn controlled by a master lock located at the top of the mailbox to which only the postman has access.
In my block, this master lock was left unlocked, making individual locks obsolete and mailboxes prey to fliers and junk-mail distributors. This has gone on for close to a month. Although I called the delivery base about a week ago to complain, the postman has yet to secure the master lock.
Two days ago, I e-mailed Sing Post but, other than a computer-generated reply, I have heard nothing from them.

Junking junk mail
"Call our hotline on 1605."
MS PATSIE TAN, senior manager, corporate communications, Singapore Post: "I refer to Monday's Forum Online letter by Mr Paul Low, 'Mailbox window flap bolted but still flooded with fliers'. Residents who do not wish to receive unaddressed ad fliers can call our hotline on 1605 to be delisted under the mail preference option."
