Tampines - Sigh! Tampines no more what it used to be

1 January 2007 - William, 26, a bank officer, is a concerned resident who wrote in to STOMP about the "messy state" of Tampines.

This is his email:

I lived in Tampines for 20 yrs and I am worried that Tampines is nolonger the heart-warming Heartland place i used to live in. These pics are taking near the small mac area in btw HDB office towards businterchange & MRT stn. Abt 10 mini shops were set up there sellingitems frm VCDs to TAKA cheapo diamonds to cheap umbrellas.

Sounds 'cool', but problem is the small & cramp lane towards MRT/businterchange is so jam pack that I sometimes have to "queue" up to walkfrm Bus INT to MRT or frm MRT to bus INT.
Another major concern is, those shop owners usually man their shops alone and after they finished their "ta pau" meals, they jus left it there waiting for the next day morning shift cleaners to clear. OMG, wats wrong with my Heartland tampines?

I wish to take this opportunity to get the Town Council awarness to do their part in order to get revive the heart-warming Heartland place that Tampinean used to enjoy. Thk U!

STOMP empathises with you, William!

What Bugs Me
Posted on 24 Oct, 2007
STOMPer Eber, a flight attendant and resident of Punggol, sent us this photo on 22 October via MMS, of a taxi stand at Compass Point being used as a bicycle stand.
He told STOMP:"There is a sign that says, 'No Parking of Bicycles'. But I have seen all the bicycles there for more than a month."It makes me wonder about all the law abiding citizens who keep doing this at Compass Point," he said.
