S’PORE CONDO DEVELOPER DRAWS FLAK FOR ELITIST ADVERT THAT PUTS DOWN PUBLIC SWIMMING POOLS

MCL Land’s print ad for its Sol Acres development is elitist and offensive. It paints a picture that of a crowded public pool with a HDB backdrop as being a poor choice for its target audience. In its haste to sell its property, it is unacceptable that MCL Land turns to further dividing the haves and have-nots in Singapore.

Furthermore, let’s not forget that many of our SG swimming icons like Ang Peng Siong, Junie Sng, Oon Jin Teik, Joscelin Yeo and May Ooi all became champions by training in public swimming pools.
