Fitness instructor Gan said he sent feedback to his town council on two areas that needed attention at the start of the year. The year is almost over, and nothing has been done, he said.

"Beginning this year, I sent feedback to Tanjong Pagar Town Council," he said in an email this morning (Dec 7).

One was about a damaged returned mailbox and the other was a water ponding problem below a covered linkway between Block 62 and Block 63 of Commonwealth Drive.

"The officer replied to my mail, saying repair works will be carried out and works will be completed by end Jan 07 on the mailbox and Feb 07 on the water ponding problem.

"It is now December, and nothing has been done," he said.

The STOMPer said he sent feedback again on Oct 15 about the indiscriminate feeding of animals in his estate. He said he was told that a pest control operator would be engaged and signages advising residents not to feed the animals would be put up.

"All this did not materialise. So, do you think they deserve the 2.5 months bonus?" he asked.

"I am happy to learn that Singapore’s economy is doing very well and that all civil servants will be getting 2.5 months bonus.

"However, not everyone deserves this Special Bonus," he said.

STOMP is contacting Tanjong Pagar Town Council for comments.
