I think this is the ONE.

Yeah !

 

[Medicated Oil]

Yeah !

BRCS should be next.
Just see how long the craze will continue and die off.

All these aren't news
Happened before will happen again
These aren't well designed stuff

Of course it will suit me if everything is working and available but Singapore is like that now

Why people expect things to be working in Singapore ?
I know this isn't civil service but i ever asked a civil servant and his reply to me for another thing is do you make mistakes? I mean its not a mistake. Its a system wide issue they don't have resources & wherewithal to make good

Imagine if Japanese civil servant when faced with an obvious c0ck up tells public do you make mistakes? What will happen to him

Jap will go to Hara Kiri?

Two of my cans kept rejected so I am now holding onto them. They are large Sapporo beer cans from Donki with past3d BCRS stickers.

Tried again at another machine and this time both went through easily

The return on the paper one is pathetic man, 6 cents per kilo which eventually got halved to 3...

The only paper I have at home is from junk mail, and the occasional delivery box

I wondered what is the returns of the can and plastic bottle that they collected back.
Should be not worth the effort in the end.

there a TikTok video showing town council cleaners with a bag of cans.

There 2 camp. One say ok. One say not ok.

So is ok or not ok?

I already said before
Definitely these cleaners and hawker centre cleaners and street cleaners are doing it.and they have unfair advantage over others
Simply cos their pay is low and getting $5 a day isn't bad
I say $5 cos I know at a popular hawker centre seems like cleaners are competing with each other to get most cans for themselves
I seen them openly during working hours throwing cans in machine and its not 5 cans
More like 10 plus each
And machine there always always full

Grace is obviously lost and inept
Amy wasn't any better
She can't address the issue

This going to be a silly discussion again.

 

[articland05]

not only that...
all along town councils workers also selling junks to karang guni
they make use of a store room next to the refuse area and stuff ppl discarded away like tv, washing machines, electronic stuff to make money

 

[Medicated Oil]

Need to change their t-shirt and they will be ok.

 

[Medicated Oil]

They should stir more till the whole project is cancelled.
And we will be getting cheaper drinks from ABC shop liao.

Mdm Pasta should bang table for this kind of disgraceful dispute.

 

[ahnyaahnya]

Hardworking? Did they do free OT to dig out the cans from the bins? And also to deposit the cans in the machine?
Time spent doing so should have been spent on doing their cleaning .

 

[keenklee]

IMHO. IIRC.
Foreigner workers are not allowed to work outside their job scope and get supplementary income ?

[pohw0008]

The machine downstairs my house was removed.. don't know why.. and the website still show bin full at the location.. i see like 30% of the machines are all full already.. don't think they can keep up with the rate..

This going to be a silly discussion again.

Why are Singaporean citizens taxed in this way onlie for foreign workers to benefit? That is the question.
