Watch Out
for Inconsiderate Practices at Communal Spaces
Last issue’s quiz was about inconsiderate practices that we should avoid when using communal spaces
such as void decks. Did you get the answers correct? Check them against the list below.
Do not install any
permanent fixtures on
the walls of the void deck
No ball games allowed
Do not park your
motorcycles/ BICYCLES
ILLEGALLY at the void deck
Do not smoke at
the void deck
Be responsible when you use the void deck,
and avoid installing any permanent fixtures
which can damage beams or columns of the
walls. The void deck is common property,
and your deposit will be forfeited if the void
deck is found to be in an unsatisfactory
condition after your event.
A void deck is not built for activities such
as ball games, which can be dangerous as
the ball may hit passers-by. The excessive
noises created during ball games will also
disturb residents.
Park your motorcycles and bicycles at the
designated parking area and bicycles racks
respectively to avoid getting a fine.
As of 15 January 2013, the void deck is a
designated smoke-free area. Please stub
out your cigarettes before entering the void
deck.

But t erfly Garden
On 21 March, Member of Parliament, Mr Lee Yi Shyan officiated the opening of the Butterfly Garden at
Garden Hill Park. Residents, as well as students and teachers from the nearby schools came to admire
the floral and fauna of the garden, which is situated right at the heart of the neighbourhood at Bedok
North Street 1. There were plenty to see— Crown Flower, Coromandel, Scarlet Spiral Flag, and most
anticipated of all, the butterflies. The residents were excited at being able to observe the butterflies up
close, and had the opportunity to handle them as well. This is a community effort, and residents have
been appointed as ‘Garden Ambassadors’ to help care for and maintain this green oasis in our Town.

River Hongbao 2015 to Kampong Chai Chee
The lanterns were on display in front of the Bedok Interchange Hawker Centre located at Blk 208B New Upper Changi Road.

East Coast Care 2 15
On 22 March, residents who participated in the event, East Coast Care 2015, had a taste of nostalgia at the Bedok Temporary Bus Interchange. A replica
of the obelisk similar to the one at the now defunct Great World Amusement Park, which was wildly popularly in the 1950s, formed part of the main
entrance. There was an exciting line-up of activities such as cultural performances, a showcase of vintage cars, favourite childhood games, and rides for
the children. Members of Parliament, Mr Lim Swee Say, Mr Lee Yi Shyan, Dr Mohd Maliki Osman and Ms Jessica Tan were present and joined the residents
as they relived their fond memories. It was an unforgettable night where residents from different divisions, age groups and races bond among themselves.

O ur Town
Mdm Maryam Andy, 73, and Mr Chow Keng Sun, 66, are two sprightly Pioneers whose active lifestyles inspire us. Judging from the way they serve the
East Coast community and carry out their duties energetically, it will be hard to tell their age.
MR
CHOW
MDM
MARYAM
66
73
Mdm Maryam’s eyes shine brightly as she talks about her work as a
grassroots leader — a commitment which she has kept for more than
40 years. In her current roles as the Assistant Treasurer of the Women’s
Executive Committee (WEC) and member of the Bedok Citizens’
Consultative Committee (CCC), she is able to share her experiences and
insights gained throughout the years. With her background in teaching, it is
no wonder that Mdm Maryam also has an interest in nurturing the younger
generation and to get them to volunteer. With a keen eye for aesthetics
and nimble fingers, she is known for creating beautiful fruit and vegetable
carvings, and has conducted classes to teach residents. Mdm Maryam
shares, “We are remembered more for our kindness, our generosity in
sharing, and for our contributions and services.” Clearly, she enjoys what
she does, and attributes the support from fellow WEC and CCC members
as a source of encouragement for her to continue with her service.
As the Senior Property Officer with the Town Council, Mr Chow often
receives feedback from residents on areas in the neighbourhood which
require his attention, such as damaged facilities and cleanliness of the
common corridors. It is no wonder that the first thing he does every
morning at work is to check for the emails from residents. Prompt and
methodical in his approach, Mr Chow will usually call the residents to find
out more about the problem and conduct inspections before deciding
on an appropriate solution. In instances where the cases do not come
under the Town Council’s management, he will refer the matter to the right
agency and work with the agency to resolve it. Mr Chow is equally aware
of the importance of communicating with residents on their concerns, and
takes the time explain the situation and follow-up action to them. He also
enjoys the outdoor, and engages in jogging and swimming; and was even
a canoe instructor for the People’s Association!
In the subsequent issues, look out for more stories about the Pioneers serving our estate and their dedication to our community.

Cleaner Air with the New
and Improved Eco Burners
全新的环保焚烧炉使空气更洁净
Eco Burners were first introduced by Nee Soon Town
Council in their estates in July 2014. The supplier has made
improvements to the burners after gathering feedback
from the residents.
With better air circulation within the bin and a more
complete combustion process, these stainless steel
burners produce half the amount of smoke and just 3%
of the ashes as compared to the traditional burners.
As a pilot project in our Town, we have ordered these
improved Eco Burners and placed them in various
neighbourhoods. We will continue to monitor the
feedback on these new Eco Burners, before introducing
them to every estate in our Town.
We hope that the new Eco Burners will help to regulate
the smoke generated so that residents can enjoy cleaner
air and better air circulation during the festivals.
OLD
NEW
这些环保焚烧炉是于2014年7月，由义顺市镇理事会首次在该区内启用。之后供应商
在收集了居民的反馈意见后，对焚烧炉加于改善。
改善后的焚烧炉桶内的空气循环被加以改进，燃烧过程也更为完整。这使此焚烧炉
与传统的焚烧炉相比，所产生的烟雾仅减一半，而灰烬则只有之前的3%。
我们已根据居民的反馈将这些焚烧炉摆放在之前较受烟雾干扰的邻里。我们将会继
续参考居民对此焚烧炉的意见和反馈。
我们希望全新的环保焚烧炉能帮助减少焚烧时所产生的烟雾，以让居民在节日期
间，也能享有更干净的空气。

Conversation on Budget 2015
Member of Parliament, Ms Jessica Tan facilitated the dialogue session, “Building Our Future, Strengthening Social Security” on 7 March at the multipurpose hall at Changi Simei Community Club. The session saw a healthy turnout of about 80 residents who shared their opinions about the initiatives
announced for Budget 2015. Among the topics of conversation were the enhanced CPF savings, the Silver Support scheme for the elderly, and
programmes which supported skills upgrading and parents with young children. The session was fruitful and residents expressed their appreciation at
the efforts made to engage them personally to seek their views on Budget 2015.

Lunar New Year Party 2015
Residents of Fengshan had an early start to their Lunar New Year celebrations on 24 January at the hardcourt of Fengshan Community Club (CC). Plenty
of activities were lined up for both the young and the old. Residents picked up a few tips on creating their own festive pieces – such as lantern making,
paper cutting and Chinese calligraphy – to brighten up their homes at the handicraft booths. Participants at the event helped to decorate four large
panels which showed well-wishes for the year in Chinese characters. The panels were subsequently displayed at the CC as a Lunar New Year decorative
centrepiece. Member of Parliament, Mr Raymond Lim joined residents in this meaningful event.

Locking Hearts
There are many ways to show your affection for your loved ones. Residents, both young and old, chose the fun and fit way by participating in the
Valentine Run 2015 held on 15 February. Decked out in the event’s purple T-shirt, participants were in high spirits and there was an air of excitement at
Bedok Reservoir Park where the run was held. Members of Parliament, Mr Lee Yi Shyan, Mr Lim Swee Say, Ms Jessica Tan and Dr Mohd Maliki Osman
were also present at this event. During the Pledge of Love, residents showed their love and commitment to their family and friends by attaching a lock
on a red heart-shaped structure.

Spreading Love TO THE ELDERLY
Under the Spreading Love Showing Care - Give a Heart Project 2015, a group of seniors, led by
volunteers, visited the Trick Eye Museum where they had an enjoyable time striking their creative
poses with the 3D paintings. This meaningful event reached out to the elderly who were staying
alone and/or in the lower-income group to spread the festive joy to them during Chinese New
Year. After the visit, a buffet lunch was held and the event ended on a heart-warming note with the
seniors gathering together for lo hei it was certainly a great way to kick off the Lunar New Year!
