Punggol Swamp

[Americano]

Punggol is considered a new town. Could you imagine how bad it could be in anoth 5 years time?

pardon me for sayin but such water puddles can be found EVERYWHERE in s'pore rite.. even where i work in raffles place.. of course its better that we dun have such but to say tat our town is poorly maintained compared to others because of this is a bit.. u know... exaggerated.. 

Yah... i agree with ultramanz...
At least we have drainage.. if not we would have been flooded... just only need to look across the Causeway the last time there was heavy rain... we all had the same amount of rain, but their flood water stayed for two weeks.... ours was only in Upper Thomson and it subsided within a few hours..
Think we shld count ourselves quite fortunate..

Er. MM said that we are 1st world. So you think flooded pathways are part and parcel of 1st world living? 

Erm true but so you think other 1st world countries dun have flooded pathways? at all?

I think what the photos shown are on residential areas. Within our own pedestrian pathway which is poorly maintained. During GE, they were boasting their Town Council is doing good job. They boasted about the cleanliness of Punggol,etc...Punggol is considered new town 5 years with this kind of maintenance?

Upper Thomson has been existed many years.
Johor has been existed many years.

Ofcourse boast la.. or else will you vote for them???
I heard that there were a few projects during the contruction of punkgo estate delayed due to construction co. wind up.
one plot was the block 230 area where project was delayed and some people didnt get their keys as per schedule.
i really doubtful of the quality of the flats here...
with so many cracks on the wall, paintwork so fast wear and tear, craking and poping tiles like pop corns...
paying between 100-300k for such quality.. 1st world???

the issue here is the integrity of those promises made by highly-paid jokers out there.
