My town council sent some workers to clean up my window ledge last weekend. I must say this is a very pleasant surprise, given that i had not expected to receive any response, let alone action on my email complaint about the litter that has been accumulating on my window ledge.
When I was in NZ, I was so bored that i wrote an email to complain about the litter on the window ledges outside my kitchen and bedroom. I had read an article on Today Online about HDB cleaniless, and that kinda triggered off the whole email. An officer from my town council actually replied and said that he will send some workers to clean up the litter for me.
Last week, when i came back, the litter was still there. Plus, i seem to be having a lot of bugs in my house, which i attributed to the litter outside (which was ridiculous, but i just wanted to blame something / someone anyway). So i sent another email to complain, this time attaching photos of my terribly littered window ledges.

This is how my window ledges look now after the cleanup.
Basically, the cleaners just sweep everything off the ledge and let the litter fall to the ground floor. I could have easily done that myself!! But if i get caught, i will be fined for littering.. haha.. Anyway, i guess this is better than nothing, although it's only a matter of time before the stupid people above my unit starts throwing stuff down again.. Sigh.. what is wrong with all these inconsiderate people!! Because of them, nobody dares to hang their laundry out to dry anymore..
