我是一名退休人员。我一直关注自己的生意。多年来几乎每个周末，我都会去看望在勿落的姐姐。位 于BLK 511的小贩中心是我们日常的市场。上周，我和姐姐去市场，亲眼看到小贩中心的天花板很脏乱。实在不太体面 。如果这样的问题不得已解决，将会成为公众卫生问题。我用自己的手机拍了照片，虽然不是很清晰，我想也能准 确表达我的意图和我所关心的问题。Sylvia Lim 和WP议员Pritam Singh负责市议会。他们的工作就是确保各个地方的清洁。因此当地小贩才会支付他们费用。承包商已认同合 同内容却是如此。因此，市议会没有强迫他们根据合同履行义务。并非拥护当地中心小贩，反而为何这两位议员却 尽量保护和掩饰承包商，承包商不仅没有完成合同中付款的工作，还试图从较为贫穷的小贩那里抽取额外的费用。 我对这些小商贩的了解已有些时日。他们不想招惹麻烦。他们只想谋生。如果他们解释的太多，他们会很害怕。市 议会令他们的生活雪上加霜。事实上，小贩们很团结，他们发出了寻求帮助的请愿，只是为了表达这一切有些太过 分了，以至于他们无法再容忍下去。正如我所说的，如大多数人一样，我通常只介意我自己的生意，但是这实在是 太过分了。如小贩们一样，我也无法接受Sylvia Lim和 Pritam Singh所给的任何推辞和指责。他们应停止玩弄政治，做好他们份内之事。

Not Telling the Truth doesn't necessarily imply Lying. Reporters have to differentiate that properly. If you don't even know the truth in the first place, how can you lie?

Apparently Sylvia Lim also fails her logic...
First, she keeps asking NEA to show when did AHTC employees ask hawkers to pay extra...then she acknowledged that WP MP has written to AHTC for the case of hawkers being asked to pay extra... But wait, the hawkers' letter to WP MP has already stated very clearly it was AHTC's employee, property manager Mr Tai who asks them to pay extra! Epidemic lah! A lawyer like her cannot figure out the irony and contradictions here?

If you have a contractor to service your client, you paid everything but later you find out your contractor asked your client to pay extra, put up another quotation for something which is actually included in your contract, what would you do?
A person with integrity would have scolded the contractor for corrupt practices, ban the contractor for future work.

It is totally wrong for WP and AHTC to disclaim any responsibility from their contractor who tried to double charged the hawkers! They should have fired their contractor straight away for such dishonest act! This contractor is employed under AHTC to do the work and AHTC will have the assumed responsibility of its conduct and work ethics.
"NEA should know that ATL is an independent commercial company free to provide quotations to any party that requests it. It was the Market Association of Blk 538 Market that requested the quotation, as confirmed by ATL’s media release on 6 June 2013. Attributing the quotation to AHPETC is misleading and politically motivated to tarnish the reputation of AHPETC."

Very disappointed with Sylvia Lim when she puts this up in her statement. She claims that WP and AHTC works towards the interests of stallholders and public but apparently, this statement contradicts that claim... She, WP and AHTC would rather sit there and do nothing when their own contractor tries to double charge the hawkers for the job which is already paid by the Town Council! And the Town Co...See More

So this is the "confusing" email quoted... no where in the correspondence states that the hawkers will pay for the scaffolding... and it is strange that AHTC would not feel something is wrong as the scaffolding is supposedly provided by its own contractor....

These letters prove one simple thing, the hawkers are consistent in their claim that they were told that the contractor will not clean above 2.5m and they were given a quotation for HIGH RISE CLEANING, not only for scaffolding. They have made complaint to their WP MP, their MP wrote to AHPeTC.
The point to note is that if AHPeTC acknowledges that it is their duty and obligation to pay for everything in the cleaning, why would they expect the hawkers to pay? If there is contractual obligation for the contractor ATL to provide everything including scaffolding and high rise cleaning, why did it happily quote all these charges to the hawkers? And the AHPeTC actually knew about it but did nothing to stop ATL from doing so?

WP and AHTC don't sound consistent at all, but the hawkers sound perfectly consistent. They were told that they need to pay for cleaning above 2.5m and thus, given a quotation for high rise cleaning. This makes better sense than WP and AHTC's nonsense about assuming hawkers going to pay for scaffolding when NEA emailed them in spite of the fact that they claim they know they need to pay for everything and the contract with ATL includes scaffolding and cleaning of ceiling

So now we have something very clear from the latest evidence put up. The Hawkers were misled and told by AHTC staff Mr Tai that they need to pay extra to contractor for High Rise Cleaning, so they ask how much? The ATL, although knowing that it is their contractual obligation to clean the ceiling without further charges, happily quoted the hawkers $7200, NOT ONLY for the scaffolding but the whole package of High Rise Cleaning as well.
So whose fault? The AHTC's staff Mr Tai's and ATL's fault lah! Very simple and straight forward!

By the documented proof, it is clear that the hawkers are not telling lies. The quotation given by AHPeTC's contractor ATL is about the whole HIGH RISE CLEANING, not just scaffolding. It means that hawkers are telling the truth that the contractor didn't want to clean anything above 2.5m without additional charges.
If this is included in AHPeTC's contract to ATL, why did ATL put up such quotation to hawkers for extra cost? The mystery reveals itself....

What day job does he have? or is he paid by the PAP?
Please do not criticize GMS, merely because he speak against WP.
You may disagree with GMS, but perhaps I could draw your attention to Leong Sze Hian. Mr Leong critique AIMs saga, and analyse the flaw. Do you notice he remained silent throughout the AHPETC vs. NEA saga? Isn’t Mr Leong’s silence curious?
Mr Leong is certainly qualify to defend WP in such accounting and financial matter, yet he remained silence and choose not to defend WP.
We all like to give support to WP, but bear in mind, WP may not be 100% saint. WP may make error too, if we let our blind fondness blind our eye, it can be dangerous…… Our parents were blindly supporting PAP, and you know the consequence. Take a leave from Taiwan, the people supported Chen Sui Bian, almost idolsing him, and the outcome is well known.
Remeber when Yaw SL sage first come out, every protect Yaw,merely because he is a WP MP, and the outcome is well known too.
The least we need, post-PAP, is daft Singaporeans blindly supporting yet another party again.

I don't think most WP supporters will give 100% support to WP in the same way GMS is giving 101% venom to WP.
You are also wrong on your facts about Leong. He wasn't silent.
