Baey Yam Keng urges everyone to keep estate clean after observing town council contractor at work
Members of the public have been urged to dispose of their rubbish properly after a town council contractor was seen clearing litter trapped in landscaped areas.
Tampines MP quietly observed cleaner at work
In a Facebook post last Friday (12 June), Tampines Member of Parliament (MP) Baey Yam Keng shared a video of a contractor carrying out cleaning works beside a coffeeshop at block 622A.
According to the post, Mr Baey said he had quietly observed the worker as he went about his duties.

Besides dried leaves and vegetation, he also had to remove small pieces of litter such as cigarette butts, wrappers and bottle caps that had become lodged within the bushes.
“It took him more than two minutes to clear one such landscaped area, and there are eight such areas in the vicinity,” Mr Baey noted.
He used the incident to remind members of the public that litter does not simply disappear after being discarded.
Tampines residents urged to dispose of waste properly
Instead, rubbish can also accumulate in crevices, gratings and vegetation, making it more difficult for cleaners to remove.
Mr Baey pointed out that rubbish trapped in these areas may collect water, potentially creating breeding grounds for mosquitoes.

He added that the estate’s landscaped features enhance the surroundings and require proper maintenance.
As such, he appealed to everyone to also play their part by disposing of waste responsibly, in a bin or chute.
“Please do not make the workers’ job more challenging,” Mr Baey urged.
Netizens empathise with cleaner
A netizen urged everyone to respect and spare a thought for the cleaners by throwing rubbish in the proper bins.

my guess is not local
anyway old school is the best. to pick old school lock you need skill and not everyone have it
to pick new tech, all you need is the electronic device
A 46-year-old man was arrested at a Marina Bay open-air car park after he was caught on camera attempting to open the door of a Tesla.
The car's owner found out about the man's suspicious behaviour after the Tesla's sentry mode cameras and sensors picked up on his attempt.
The man was found with a signal transmitter device.
Alert received on phone
According to Lianhe Zaobao, the car owner, Zhang Yi Li (transliteration), 39, and her husband and friends were visiting food and music festival GastroBeats, held at Bayfront Event Space, at about 7pm on Jun. 13.
They parked their Tesla at an open-air car park.
Zhang told Zaobao that her Tesla's "sentry mode" was activated at the time.
Tesla's "sentry mode" keeps the vehicle's cameras and sensors powered and ready to record if suspicious activity is detected around the vehicle.
Zhang said she received an alert on her phone that someone had tried to open the car door at around 7:23pm.
"At the start, I assumed someone had got the wrong car. I wasn't too worried as this has happened before," Zhang told Zaobao.
However, out of caution, Zhang decided to head to the car park to make sure.
Man loitered at car park
She then reviewed the car's camera recordings and saw that a man had loitered around her car and attempted to open the door.
Based on the recordings, the man had spent about 45 minutes going back and forth beside the car, Zaobao wrote.
"He continued loitering around the area for 10 minutes after I reached the car park. He kept looking at my vehicle, and he came and went multiple times," Zhang recalled.
She alerted the police after suspecting that the man was targeting unlocked cars.
The police arrived about 10 minutes later.
The man attempted to flee, but was eventually arrested, Zaobao wrote.
Signal transmitter found on man
Responding to media queries, the Singapore Police Force (SPF) said it received a call for assistance at 11 Marina Boulevard and that a 46-year-old man was arrested for attempted theft.
Police investigations are ongoing.
"The police later told me that they found a signal transmitter on the man, but did not share more details," Zhang said.
Zhang suspects that the man had hidden the device in his cross-body bag and used it to interfere with the car's receivers to prevent the car doors from locking.
She also suspects that she was targeted as there were a few bags placed in the car's rear passenger seats.
Zhang told Zaobao that she did not expect such an incident to happen at a crowded public area.
"Even in a safe place like Singapore, we shouldn't let down our guard completely," Zhang remarked.
She said that she decided to check on her car when she received the alert as she had been robbed in Singapore in the past.
