Republic Poly Students think HDB void deck is opium house

EVERY day, more than 100 students from Republic Polytechnic (RP) blatantly flout smoking rules by lighting up at the void deck of a Woodlands block.

Students are not allowed to light up on campus and the school has also established a "no smoking" zone around its premises.

Block 806, Woodlands Street 81, a seven-minute walk from RP, lies within the smoke-free zone.

The students appear there during their lunch break, which is from 11.30am to 2pm.

After The New Paper reported last week that some Choa Chu Kang residents were unhappy that students from ITE College West caused a nuisance in their neighbourhood, we received complaints about students from RP and the Lasalle College of the Arts smoking and littering.

Housewife Jane Koh, 51, who lives in the opposite block, said that from her second-storey flat, she usually sees "40 to 50" students gathering at the void deck of Block 806 every day.

Smoking should ONLY be allowed in marked desigated areas. Every other public domain outside these marked areas, it should be illegal; this way, non-smokers, and especially people with respiratory problems will be safer. This is not difficult to implement, airports are already like that.

Cheers!

Not just that, these students threw the cigarette butts all over the void deck n also the empty can drinks. After that the cleaners still have to clean up for them.

You know what? These Republic poly students are worst than wild cats and dogs. Those wild cats and dogs when they go to trees and shit, they still know how to dig and cover up. If students can't even do this simple thing by throwing the butts into the bin, then they are worst than animals and go school to study for what? Study so much also like that.

Isn't it also a shame that not one among them will tell his/her pals, "Eh, c'mon lah, at least don't litter lah." These are not restless nothing to do layabouts, these are tertiary students.

Total disrespect for common property. Not my house, so why worry? So much for tertiary education. Actually, so much for education!!!!

Those NEA enforcement officer who lack of quota can confirm hit his/her target lor... Judging from the crowd, 1 day's work can fill up at least 1 month's of quota....

The next thing is to invite the illegal ciggy sellers there... The demand are all there man.

U see the photo even got red chairs at the void deck for them to sit down and smoke. Republic poly is doing nothing to ease the situation but pushing all these smoking students out. They should designate 1 big yellow box in the poly premises for their students to smoke and not let them go out and make a nuisance and litter all over.

If NEA officer go, how many can he catch, he go only, all run away. :p

Any NEA officer attempting that better arrange for police escort.

Any NEA officer attempting that is confronting gangsters, likely to be armed and senselessly dangerous.

Great suggestion. Any idea if they prefer cigs from Indonesia, Malaysia or duty free S'pore? Being students, they are likely to be budget conscious so I will get my friend sell them cheaper than the lorongs in Geylang.
