Cowardly tactics

Dear Residents,

We have received an interesting comment from Madam Chan of which is extracted and posted for your reading:

Dear Committee,

I am very grateful for the good works on the overall project. The sad thing is someone is using my address to report about the perimeter fencing. The person is so cheeky to use my address and someone name to do the MPSJ report.

How do I found out, by coincidence my pet tear open the letter and since it was from MPSJ I have it piece together to see what is it about. To my dismay I found out the it contains the report of the perimeter fence. I was so mad I immediately go to MPSJ to cancel the report.I also found out the person also uses a false Tel. No.

They are cowards out there who do things using people's addresses, I am really very angry about this issue.

But I am giving all the thumbs up for all who have sweat over this project. A BIG THANK YOU TO COMMITTEE OF USJ11/3.

Mdm Chan/3A

As you can read from the comment posted above by Madam Chan, there are people who have nothing else better to do but to try and make our projects fail. They will do anything to sabotage something which is positive and beneficial for our community including using other people’s names and disguise. As Madam Chan has rightly put it – these people are COWARDS! So, why are people like that?

I was talking to the contractor who was busy working on the fence a few days ago and he told me that there was this man who had tried to stop them from carrying on with their work. He had also questioned the contractor about who had given him the authority to build the fence.

The contractor managed to identify this man, a non-paying resident from No. 10, 11/3K who had lodged a complaint against us to MPSJ before when we started many months ago. But he does not have the guts to meet with the Committee! We are ever ready to meet with him and ask him what his problem really is so that we can work towards resolving it. But he never did come forward but choose to intimidate the contractors who have been awarded the works by the Committee.

The Committee is very open and is willing to meet anyone. So, do step forward if you feel strongly that what we are doing is wrong. We will try our best to address your issues with us. But please also be reminded that with mandates from more than 500+ residents, we represent the majority, the people who are behind us. That means, we speak on their behalf as well!

Anyway, I told the contractor to pass on the committee members’ contacts should he come across such cases again but work should not stop but in fact should be expedited.

In any case, the reason for publishing the comment above was to alert you that some people are trying to sabotage our efforts (reasons only known to themselves) in our efforts to make our neighbourhood a better place to live in. The Committee is resolute in implementing what we have planned for the common good of all. In fact, such cases will only make it stronger!

We will not fail in our efforts to carry out our plans as the mandate has been given by you, our residents of USJ 11/3. And we, the Committee, promise you, there will be more initiatives to come.
