Lift upgrading confirmed..

one of the promises used during election will finally come true for my block.. for my whole life, I have been living in this flat.. I have been so used to not having a lift that stop at my storey liao.. everyday when I go out, I will climb two flights of stairs up to take the lift.. sometimes to exercise, I will also climb the stairs all the way down to the ground floor.. lift that stops every floor seems like not necessity to me at all.. have or not also not very impt lah.. but seems like it is a trend for all flats to have it liao.. so why not.. we voted yes for it.. and now the results out, more than 75% of the residents in my block have voted in favour so it's on next year..

having a lift that stop every storey may not be a necessity for me.. but it still benefit many people such as the large portion of elderly and senior citizens who are living in my block.. when moving bulky stuff.. having a lift near you also good lah.. my block really has many old people leh.. no kidding.. you can really see them when they gathered at my void deck for the variety show or should I say getai.. so coincidently, I have a RC at my void deck and they set up the polling there lor..

talking about the getai, it really irritates me.. during my exam period, they have this show for the launch of the lift upgrading programme and imagine it was so loud and all the songs are so old.. all tailored for the elderly lor.. make me wonder whether I am the only young ppl living there.. no programme for youngster at all.. yah.. and it is so loud that even staying 10 plus floors above also can hear clearly and making studying and watching tv so difficult..

okay.. I accompanied my mum to the polling for a while and just nice, the MP was giving his speech in front of the packed audience, mainly made up of aunties, uncles, ah peks and ah mas.. seats are insufficient and many also stood at the side.. the MP gave a Mandarin speech first.. I must say that this MP must really improve his mandarin. he's a Chinese.. He can speak Mandarin but not very well lor.. don't know is it on purpose for the sake of the elderly.. he speaks really very slow in Mandarin, word by word.. he really has difficulty say out a sentence fluently from the script.. I must say I was really bored by it.. finishing the Mandarin speech.. finally.. he has to say a english version exactly the same.. that time I already not hearing liao..

I went to the polling station with my mum.. it is electronic polling.. just select the option by touching the screen.. each station has a friendly staff helping you to use the machine.. it's nice of them of having ppl there to help.. but I think ppl will not dare to vote against it lor.. as the older ppl always have the mentality that they will be blacklisted if they don't support the government policy.. this might also be a factor that help to raise the number of people in favour of the project bah..
