Based on the media reports so far, one can easily conclude that the Geylang Serai market’s management committee have neglected its duties on at least two counts:
1. Failure to call for spring-cleaning of the premises only until last week in the aftermath of the mass food poisoning.
2. Failure to maintain basic standards of environmental hygiene at the premises which were infested with rats.
NEA has long insisted that it is in charge for the hygiene of permanent markets only.
In the case of temporary markets, ensuring cleanliness and tackling vermin infestations are the responsibility of the centre’s management committee.
Since the management committee of Geylang Serai temporary market has obviously flouted the rules, why are they not taken to task yet now that both MOH and NEA claimed they have “completed their investigations”?
Up to now, we are still kept in the dark over the identities of the members from the management committee.
The state media could have gotten hold of the information easily. Why are their identities being protected?
However, we do know that the Geylang Serai temporary market was a “project” by the Kampong Ubi Citizens Consultative Committee.
