Show some respect, please: Tiong Bahru residents use S'pore flag as curtain

STOMPer J feels it is disrespectful of these Tiong Bahru residents to continue to hang the Singapore flag in this manner, despite having received an advisory from the town council.

Said the STOMPer:

"I spotted this flat in Tiong Bahru using the Singapore flag as a curtain.

"The flag is meant to be displayed on the flag hooks on the parapet, not hung from the windows and definitely not used as a curtain to keep out the sun.

"This is utter disrespect to our national flag.

"We have reported this to the Town Council, and the Town Council has advised them to show proper respect to the flag, but they are still using it as a curtain.

"The flat is owned by a Singaporean couple who are overseas and have rented the flat to a group of expats who have also thrown loud parties till 3am until the police had to be called in.

"It is one thing to not respect your neighbours but to not respect the national flag of your host country is really too much."

This unit was rented to a french engineer. The windows have blinds on them. Should be a deliberate attempt to mock Singapore.

They may be too poor to afford? Check it out and offer to sponsor them curtain then to shame them here. If they can afford decent curtain or they are FTs trying to be funny, report to police.

Call police post everytime the noise stay past 10.30pm. Clock in enough call to the PP, then raise a court order.

The pulleys were installed and tilted, facing towards to the outdoor so the flag could be displayed outside the windows.
