Residents' Alerts! Dengue and Theft

Dear Friends and Neighbours,

two alerts for your well being in health and safety:

DENGUE:
The hot season is coming by again, and with it, plus the intermittent rains, the increased risk of dengue being spread by mosquitoes breeding in nooks and corners where you least expect it.

Please follow the preventive checks as advised by the NEA Dengue Prevention website - www.dengue.gov.sg - to keep yourself, your loved ones and your neighbours safe!

THEFT:
There have been recent reports of break-ins at the rear end of the pre-war estate - where the streets are quieter. Please remember to keep your front AND backdoors locked, especially the common door at the bottom of the back escape staircase.

While thefts are thankfully rare in our estate, it is better to take precautions.

One helpful way is to also look out for each other - that's what neighbours are for.
And even better, if you know the shops downstairs - they are not only convenient, but the shopkeepers, if you know them and they know you, are our 'eyes on the street'.

If you see anything suspicious - call your local police post:
