Besides serious littering and noise pollution, residents are see more of them doing crimes including open-air gambling dens, peddling contraband cigarettes, acting as lookouts for street prostitutes, etc.<BR/><BR/>It is getting scarier everyday when you see the deterioration of our neighbourhood.<BR/><BR/>Thanks and keep up the good work.<BR/><BR/>Jessy KohSG Neighbourhoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04742806109706843255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-927018673975567927.post-16753899298027501302008-09-12T22:53:00.000+08:002008-09-12T22:53:00.000+08:00Hi symphony of love,Respect must be earned.I under...Hi symphony of love,<BR/>Respect must be earned.<BR/><BR/>I understand these foreign workers are alone here and need to have friends and love. I'm considerate and sympathise with them.<BR/><BR/>But they have a don't care attitude. They don't care about their employers or their young charges or others' concerns. <BR/><BR/>Their mentalities are very different from ours. No matter how well I treat my maids, they turn evil and mean in the end, influenced by other maids and foreign workers.<BR/><BR/>I used to tell my friends if the foreign workers can think for themselves, they would not be foreign workers here. <BR/><BR/>It's frustrating when there are troubles, the government will wash its hands off it. Employers are made to pay.eastcoastlifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13578276762751929226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-927018673975567927.post-65774833663658568482008-09-12T20:11:00.000+08:002008-09-12T20:11:00.000+08:00I understood where you are coming from and yet the...I understood where you are coming from and yet there isn't really much we can do once our almighty governments decided on something right? I had heard of many cases of DHs and foreign workers. Of two of the cases, the DHs even bought the foreign workers back home when the employers were not in the house. I believe that everyone must be treated with respect and that respect must be earned regardless of whether you are foreign workers or local people.Symphony of Lovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11385956372502939811noreply@blogger.com
