Heartbeat of Zone 9

7 Oct 2011

Recently on 20 Sep, due to strong winds in the middle of the night, a tree about 15 feet tall behind Block 771A Multi Story Car Park fell and we are pleased that it did not hit any vehicles in the car park or anyone on the foot-path. The fall was so neat that it did not block the walkway at all !! Residents please do not underestimate the strength of the wind, as such, kindly secure anything that is left hanging or exposed externally.

We had just concluded the Children Day Handicraft party and were glad to hear parents giving kudos in organizing an event of such a different nature. Different nature as parents have lots of time to chat with neighbors, children are occupied with handicraft work and rarely to find such an informal and relaxed event, where the main thing does not come from the stage. In Dec, we will be having students from NTU taking care of a Chinese Storytelling session and hopefully, in January 2012, we can bring in Ronald MacDonald.

On 1 October, we have a new batch of Town Council cleaners in our estate, as such, we would like our residents to give them time to settle in. I can speak for the RC too, as we have to re-work the close working relationship and understanding we have with the former batch of workers. Our RC is indeed sad to lose them but we shall also welcome the new workers in our midst and allow them to settle in here as soon as possible.

Last but not least, in November, on all Fridays, we will be having our annual storytelling cum sing-a-long session. Look out for our posters and banners for updates.

Till the next edition,

This resident must be new to the estate.

He must have some "connection" as he was allowed to install CCTV in front and back of his home to monitor the activities of the other residents around his house.

He may use his "connection" to get the town council to remove the court.

We welcome new residents to contribute new idea to improve the estate in consultation of older residents who have live here all our live.

RC may invite new residents to join in the activities so that they are less "hostile" towards their new neighbours.

thanks for the comment.

just to update that the court is in full view of all residents staying in the block so there is no need for CCTV to monitor the activities at this area.

whatever connection the person may have, there is a need to do consultation with residents, grassroots on their opinions of the court before drastic actions can be done to the court, as it is a community court, not a personal one.
