Despite winning the elections for Aljunied, Sengkang and Hougang, Workers' Party MPs still have to hold their Meet-the-People's sessions in make-shift cubicles at the open-air void decks. Contrast this to the PAP losing candidates, who still get the role of 'grassroots advisors' and are freely allowed to use the CCs and RCs for their grassroots activities.

A Sengkang resident is unhappy with the amenities at LRT stations as they create inconveniences for the elderly and wheelchair-bound. Shouldn't the LTA or grassroots leaders do something to make their lives easier?

A Woodgrove resident defended MP Ong Teng Koon against a complaint that he did not visit the estate as promised. The resident gave an example of the MP's exemplary attitude in solving her complaint within 12 days and was certain he will do the same if the complainant bothered to drop him an email.

Former National Solidarity Party Secretary General Lim Tean does not accept Macpherson RC's explanation for selling cheaper open house tickets to new citizens. He said Grassroots leaders should have been aware of the sensitivity and demanded for Singaporeans to be treated equally.

Following an uproar over MacPherson Resident Committee's (RC) decision to charge local Singaporeans higher ticket prices than new citizens at a community event, representatives of MacPherson RC have come forward to offer their apologies and an explanation for the pricing decision.

Singaporeans are sick and tired of being made second class citizens in their own home.

Having a potluck Iftar event is acceptable. In fact it is very much encouraged in Islam to share foods with others, what more during Iftar. However, the inclusion of non-halal foods in the Iftar could have been an oversight on the part of the event organisers. Appropriate advice should have been given earlier. Iftar is not just another dinner. Iftar has its special meaning to Muslims, and there is decorum associated with that special meaning.

I would like to let everyone know that my association with the Nanyang zone 2 Residential Committee ("RC"), community herb garden at Jurong West St 91, Blk 938 had ceased on 31st May 2017, with much regret.

Gerald Giam from the Workers Party (WP) spotted this door pamphlet during his rounds in his ward and decided to show just what kind of tricks the WP has to deal with from the incumbent People's Action Party (PAP). According to the pamphlet, the PAP is looking for Residents Committee volunteers and openly advertised some major benefits for those who do join. They include priority queue for Ministry of Education primary school registration exercises, Ministry of National Development Grassroots Organization Scheme, HDB Special Parking Label and free education courses.

Saw a pile of novelties discarded by the RC i assume when they could have been distributed among children or residents instead of discarding them. 1. Waste of monetary resources due to over purchase when funds could be used for resident activities or estate upgrading.
