Another bureaucracy to tackle? 又来多一个官方机构？

HDB (which stands for Housing & Development Board) will have a new department known as Community Relations Department (CRD). This new department may duplicate the work of the National Integration Council (NIC) [what is NIC??? Never heard of it leh!!!]. This newly created CRD is supposed to help Singaporeans to develop a strong "sense of community responsibility and ownership" that extends beyond their own flats.....see how 'COOL' (bo chap) we are .

Does this mean that complainants on cats related issues will have another channel to pour out their grievances? And for the caregivers, hopefully that it will not be another bureaucracy, in addition to the town councils to tackle. Would this CRD be just an additional organisation to create more confusion and more pushing around of responsibilities?

OMG!!!

建屋发展局将会成立一个新部门叫做 Community Relations Department （直译为：社区关系部门）. 这个新的部门的性质可能与 National Intergration Council （直译为：国家联合会）相同[这是什么leh?都没有听过有这样的东西]。这个社区关系部门是为了提高新加坡公民对自己的社区的归属感和责任感。由此可见我们是多么的‘冷漠’。

这样的话那些喜欢投诉的人，尤其是喜欢投诉猫的人不是又多了一个管道让他们审冤吗？对于那些照料社区猫的居民来说，这个部门会不会是除了市政理事会以外的另一个官方拌脚石呢？还有，它会不会为居民制造更多混乱还有造成各个部门互相推卸责任呢？

我的天啊！
