I'm the spouse of the victim involved in the accident on 3rd March 2016 @ 7.10am along Hougang Ave 8/2. My husband left behind with 2 kids age 7yo and 18months. I would really appreciate if someone who was driving on that morning witness the whole incident. Please come forward and explain the whole accident to the Traffic Police.

According to the news, it was mentioned that and I quote 'the younger tattooed man' at the first sentence of the news. This is one of the less-obvious problems with the media platforms in current times. Is it a necessity to include the description of the victim? Is it of any relevance to this case whether or not, he is heavily tattooed or not? The appearance of the deceased, tattooed or not, is immaterial and unnecessary. I am disgusted and equally appalled at the insensitivity and condescending attitude of the contributor of this post. It is no secret that Asians are stereotypical towards individuals who are 'inked', often linking tattooed men to crimes, negative social behaviours and often judged and seen as a 'bane' to the society. The unnecessary inclusion of the word, 'tattooed', gives birth to a negative impression that the deceased was the aggressor and by looking at the comments and responses to this article, I felt a strong sense of disgust and sympathy. I have seen displays of insensitivity and the lack of human touch with comments claiming that the victim deserves it. Some comments even mocked at the demise of the victim. Are these the signs of a society that is moving forward according to time? I beg to differ. I sense that our society is moving backwards. Some comments even supported directly and or indirectly at the acts of the accused, claiming that his attack on the victim was justified and the victim deserved it.

I want to feedback and complain abt the sandwich from breadline! I bought the sandwich at 710am today at hg central interchange and I open up and eat at 8am the sandwich has turned sour! I feel that the shop shouldn't sell overnight bread or sandwich esp with ham and egg in it and waste my $2.50 too!

I came back from my In-Camp-Training this evening after another fruitful day in green, only to be informed of a posting on the Fabrications about the PAP facebook page alleging that the Aljunied-Hougang Town Council’s cleaners had left a mess at the bin centre “for weeks”, or more precisely, "left to rot. For weeks". I messaged the Town Council staff for their side of the story. In about half an hour I received some pictures and a reply, “the cleaners were breaking and clearing bulky items into skip tanks. This is done almost on a daily basis during this period. The Bin Centre area is always cleared everyday and not as reported.”

Yesterday morning (20 October 2015), IT freelancer Jasper Lee got a nasty surprise as he tucked into the Big Breakfast set which he ordered through McDelivery. He had taken a few bites before spotting something moving on his sausage patty. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be worms. Jasper lost his appetite after that and made a complaint with McDonalds over the disgusting incident.

For more than 4 months, 66 year-old Yeo Choon Lan has had to live with the fear - and stench - of faeces being hurled out of their neighbor's upstair unit, which have landed with loud "plopping" sounds outside Madam Yeo's ground floor unit at Block 694, Hougang Street 61.

It’s dangerous if we live with a narrow perspective of the reality – so this General Elections I made up my mind to visit as many rallies of as many parties as I can. Hougang was my first stop as it’s the well-known landmark of the Workers’ Party.

According to a resident, a perverted man has been spotted flashing his genitals at young children at a residential estate in Hougang. He would first wait at the corner of Park Villas Terrace and once they left home for school, he would flash them before leaving.

One of the boys threw my son's toy car at my son but this maid of his, happily talking to her friends and i had to tell the child off not to do it again. I told her that she should have come up and say sorry. I told her off that a few occassions i saw her pinch the boy or sometimes hit the boy. The boy stayed quiet. She asked me if i got proof. I witnessed it just now and even my mother in law witnessed it everytime she pick up my son from school.

The PAP announced on Saturday that grassroots leader Lee Hong Chuang will be sent to contest in Hougang SMC during the upcoming GE against WP incumbent Png Eng Huat. Mr Lee replaces "Hougang Boy" aka Desmond Choo who contested twice and lost during GE2011 and the by-election after WP MP Yaw Shin Leong was expelled from the WP due to an extra-martial affair.
