The one who was started the petition was 44. Weird. He should know better that in no time he will be a enior citizen himself.
Wonder what kind of values is he imparting to his children?? If his kids petition like he did, put him somewhere far & hardly visit him, he will know what kind of 'εΎ·' he has accumulated. :nunchuk: -
Orh.... Your title no head no tail.... I thought simi lai eh...

out of the 40 storeys, the first 10 are shopping mall, the next 10 are tuition centres like TLL etc, and make the top 20 storeys to become luxury condo priced cheaper than HDB ...... sure 200% welcome and queue overnite to buy
..... after 2 years of rental contract with tuition centre, take back the lease and convert to nursing home .............. -

The perception of a nursing home being a place sent to wait for death needs to be changed.

Day care and nursing home are different, aren't they? The elderly in day care are definitely in good health, if not, they go nursing home already. Yet, not all elderly in nursing home are sick la. The only similarity is that the elderly are found there. I don't understand why people have such selfish mentality. There's a day care for the elderly at the void deck next to my block (in fact 2 blocks both serving the same centre). Nobody protested or even bothered when it was built. Guess everybody in my neighbourhood look forward to it.
Every morning, I can see the maids or other care givers pushing the elderly in wheelchairs to the centre. There's a ramp specially built for them and the only inconvenience I encounter is to :siam:. Their windows are opened and the place is airy. The interior is in full view of the public. They conduct activities to keep the elderly entertained. The place looks very cosy and comfortable and I can see that the elderly enjoy themselves. I look forward to enjoying the facilities there one day. :drool: Definitely better than staring at the four walls at home with nobody to interact with. :razz: DS3 mentioned when he was K2 (I think) that he would get a maid to look after me when I'm old. When I asked him what if she abused me when he's at work, DS3 said that he would install CCTV. Now no need for that liao :rotflmao: 
Seriously in years to come when they are old themselves and have a need for the centre will they petition for one at their void decks? :pokeeye: I'm sure they are enjoying the childcare centres, markets etc near their residence. Why don't they petition against these facilities? In fact, the childcare centre is more noisy than the elderly care centre, you know. My neighbour has 3 young kids and the noise that they made every day can drive burglars away. 
My ex-neighbours did complain against my children when they were small. When their grandchildren came along, they :oops: :oops: and claimed that it's normal; children will be children. :faint: Markets and hawker centers are not hygienic also lei. Don't they go to the market despite smell and risks of H1N1 from the pork and chicken? :slapshead: :slapshead:
