I just returned from a residents' dialogue with the MP...
Some kan chiong asshat in the RC told him to come at
8pm, but announced to the estate that it was at 7.30pm. As a
result we waited 50 minutes for him (due to another dialogue in Toa
Payoh) and the refreshments weren't even brought out. The MP
shouldn't be the one apologising for the SAF-esque scheduling.
Anyway it was quite plain to see how passionate some people can
get about their housing assets. Hopefully the LUP plan we'll get
stops at our doorsteps rather than on the landings, and we're told
that we'll get to see the plans before voting.
The only stumbling block might be the PR owners, because they
have to pay $30K for it instead of $3K if there isn't a single
S'pore citizen in the household. Oh, and those who rent out their
flats too.
