An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:
Desmond Lee, in trying to discredit the Workers party, created a firestorm which he could not control. To start off, he tried to score brownie points with his boss by running down the Aljunid Town Council. Now, the Ministry of national Development has to come out with a statement to "clarify" doubts created by this incompetent Minister of State, after netizens challenged him......
CNA also helped the idiot to clear up the mess with their article, the first few paras attached below:
SINGAPORE: The funding for town councils is based on the number of HDB flat units and flat types in an area, said the Ministry of National Development (MND) on Thursday (Nov 20). MND said this, in response to media queries on government grants for town councils.
Questions have been raised in various forums on the grants given to the Aljunied-Hougang-Punggol East Town Council (AHPETC) run by the opposition Workers' Party in comparison to other town councils run by the ruling People's Action Party (PAP). Some alleged that government grants helped PAP-run town councils run an operating surplus instead of a deficit.
This comes after Minister of State for National Development Desmond Lee highlighted AHPETC's finances recently, saying its sharp increase in service and conservancy charges (S&CC) arrears has serious implications for residents.
MND had said AHPETC's poor performance in the annual Town Council Management Report released earlier this month (Nov 4) was of "grave public concern". The report banded AHPETC “red” in corporate governance and S&CC arrears management, as its arrears rate rose to 29.4 per cent as at end-April 2013.
