Don't know why they think they see army camp, school got tray return section than they pass it down just like that.
Think most agree that whatever our G pass down, they don't discuss or debate the issue with Singaporeans.
They think can do just pass it down like army, encik say what you must do don't complain.

A lot of contributing factor whoever pass the tray return never consider:

- Area where the tray return section.
Some hawker/food center don't have very big space for tray return section.
If the area isn't big but the place have high human traffic than it cannot cope.

- Understaffed as cleaners are not paid very well.
TBH to survive on $1.4k pay check in todays living standard is impossible.
This should be the primary issue to tackle not pass down such campaign than impose a fine.
Set a livable wage so more household wife or auntie can take on the job as well as
flexible hours.

Working as cleaner isn't easy neither so comes my next point.

- Automation
Hawker/food center with high human traffic can invest in dishwashing machine.
But with machine still need manpower so doesn't mean lesser worker.

- Use PA system to remind diners to return tray
SG is very scary even never return tray will be fine.
The approach should be educate public not issue fine.

A lot of points I share does incur cost which is why the whole Tray return campaign don't say stupid but
it just to help bosses save cost and maximize profit. If the Tray return section doesn't have enough manpower
than pest will come feast on the leftover and this is a hygiene issue.

If you have any points want to add feel free to share.

its just a PAP gov scheme to benefit food centers owners for them to sack more of the cleaning staff to earn a larger profit

The cleaning companies bosses should be driving big cars and jumping queue to send their kids to school every day.

if anyone got notice, those coffeeshops that are near birds habitat, when implement this tray return, the birds will flock to the tray return area especially after peak hour and make even bigger mess.

Cos its done by PAP
Typical PAP flop

They'll scream just get it done!
And when cock up like this, the elites will pretend ALL the initial problems raised were never raised to her before & just tell underlings to get it done

Its very OBVIOUS
So many issues raised and much later eggslug said OH! Those order from restaurant style stalls don't need to clear table when stall have helpers..
Ya right.
Why don't dare to say initially?
Only raised now as an afterthought

Its OK
The purpose if tray return is to meet eggslug's KPI
Birds spreading disease is NOT her KPI

Public education doesn't work here. Sometimes I wonder why. Look at the supermarket trolleys and shared bikes being dumped everywhere. And footprints on public toilet seats or toilets not flushed in public loo. The list goes on and on.
