I agree, it happen to my area as well, you call them, they clean up, I dont know what the suporvisor ’s work are for. is not the workers, or the cleaners, but the people/department overlook them.

When you breed robots for the system, you can’t expect much. The typical civil servant works on the following algorithm:

Criteria to be a civil servant by the way is Think Less Do More….

That’s a darn good one Ganga, so accurately described!

My neighborhood also have many mosquitos.
Been like this since about half a year ago.
They spray here and there sometimes but apparently
the mosquitos still are alive and well.
So, the thing i dont know is what is the effect of their work?

When I was young, I come from a kampong. Mosquitos are common. But never was there dengue problem I was aware of . bites were just itchy and no risk of dengue. Nowadays, with modernization, seems like i have to face risk of dengue in a developed country where the land space is not big compared to usa or other 1st worlds.

a few of my neighbors have been hospitalised recently.

when i was living in another estate sometime ago, there was no mosquito problem for about 10 odd years.

then there is the TB thingie. being asymptomatic, no one really knows how many are infected until it triggers a symptom. Where does it come from? is it getting mo and mo? so what could be the cause? I dare not give my real opinion for my personal salvation.

I wonder why recently years more and more crimes apparently? is this true?
to me it feels that way altho I cannot prove it.

Maybe HDB also lost money in the MiniBons, that’s why cant afford a supervisor to do the rounds.

I hope that this mosquito thingie can be solved.

Afterall, this 1st world is so small compared to even HK.

So, with this in mind and recalling the wonderfully gifted talents we have,
and their world standing, I feel that this problem should not persist for eternity.

Lets see the problems solved . I think they can. But 1st the mosquitos have to disappear.

1 life too many.

1. have a website showing the spots where mossies still a problem.
2. gather stats on what kinds of mossies they are : aedes or non aedes.
from experience, 50:50 composition.
3. neighbors must start communicating with each other.
some have mossie problem but never tell neighbors since most come home, sleep, wakeup go to work, never greet neighbors or talk frankly and openly unlike the good old kampong days.

4. encourage ‘whistleblowers’ such that anyone who encounter mossies can immediately notify the whole block and neighborhood blocks. Have a public notice board large and prominent enough to allow residents immediate posting of mossie encounters.

spray and spray. but mossies must disappear and disappear.
some may be OBLIVIOUS to this problem if they come home late at night only as the DENGUE types usually typically attack in the day and morning. Yes. its behavior is different from the harmless mossies which hunt you usually at night .

The PAP govt don’t care. they are all rich rich FAT CATS.

If our super educational system and civil service is producing robots then “Little Red Dot” is sunk. Unless somebody complaint then nothing is done is an early sign that the system is breaking down not by design but apathy. Super efficient SinKapore having rubbish piling up and remain so until member of the public compliant otherwise nothing is done. This is news indeed. I am sick and tired reading the gahment controlled medias- basically it is a mouth piece of PAP. Only good news favourable to them and opposition party never have a look in. We the young SinKaporean must be prepared to do what younth demand- change and to keep to good old tradition we must be rebellious and not be Yes Sir 3 bagful type. We demand change and must continue to do so until its happen. What have we to loose? Wait for more FT/FW to take our jobs and queue up for free food? Enough is enough. If more of us(in ten of thousand ) dare to demonstrate then the table will be turned. Only when we stay as spectators that the PAP regime could continue to divide and rule. They could target a few leaders but if we join in spontenously without a clear leader for the regime to target, then maybe the message could get through that we have had enough of LKY and PAP.
