  1. This guy shud write in this forum i/o ST forum lah. What does he expect to be done by writing to newspaper? Feb 25, 2011 Refreshing rooftop space a turn-off now SOME 10 years ago, when my wife and I were looking for our first home, we were attracted by the living environment in Punggol 21. We especially loved the implementation of a garden concept on the multi-storey carpark's rooftop. We even bought a unit on a same level and facing the garden because we wanted to enjoy the ambience of children playing while happy parents socialised and interacted with one another. Ten years on, that ambience is gone. Our children, now aged two and eight years, have stopped going to the garden altogether for several reasons. Every morning, the garden is littered with dog poo left to fester by inconsiderate pet owners. Some owners even let their dogs do it on the rubber mat cushioning the floor of the playground. The cosy pergola, conveniently located near the playground for parents and grandparents while the children are playing, has now been co-opted as a rowdy, after-school rendezvous for teenagers, who smoke, shout and swear in full view of the neighbourhood children, including mine. The playground has also been vandalised and pockmarked by graffiti. And often, you find broken beer bottles lying around. Perhaps the rooftop garden is an easier target for antisocial activities because it is relatively secluded. Refreshing garden concepts of common spaces warrant regular maintenance and checks by the town councils and the National Environment Agency. Install security cameras, for instance. If such elevated common spaces cannot be maintained in as pristine a condition as when they were first opened, it would be better to close them because, instead of serving the estate, they cause social problems.

  2. Just like to share my detailing experience. My fren's 2 and half yrs old lancer looked rather "tired" when I saw it although it looked decent from far. Upon closer inspection, i found my fren's ride to have rather deep scratches near the door handle areas with minor ones all over the car. After Here's my process: 1) Wash with Meg's NXT shampoo 2) Claybar 3) Interior wiped down with Meg's All Purpose Cleaner (Diluted 1:10), leather applied with Meg's cleaner and conditioner 4) Optimum's Hyper Compound wif yellow cutting pad wif PC7424 (DA polisher) Speed 6 and followed up with orange light cut pad and PO106FF speed 6. Some of the tougher scratches were taken out using 4"spot buff pads (yellow cutting pad) with Hyper at speed 6 5) Sealed with OCW Time taken: 7hrs 1) Before: Scratches at driver side before spot buffing 2) After: the spot buff pad managed 2 minimised scratches, but leaves some hazing 3) Scratches near door handle 4) Door handle area glossed up after spot buffing 5) Dunno how my fren got this scratch 6) Had a tough time taking it out Finished product: Menzerna's PO106FF working wonders. Very dusty stuff but superb results Mugshot: Sori for the super long post.
