Boosting GDP ....

Post by Barnsley » Sat, 08 Oct 2016 3:12 pm

Is this how Singapore creates GDP ....

Just gone passed Tampines Central, grassy patch next to Tampines MRT , and I saw that they are setting up another event there.

The weird thing is, The area was re-grassed in the week following a Pasar Malam , wouldnt you think that if it was going to boarded over again this weekend, they wouldnt have bothered regrassing it in the week?

To me it looks like the re-grassing was a waste of time, money and resources. Why not wait til this new event has ended then do?

I am sure there are smarter people than me that can come up with an answer, other than its two different departments and there was a communication breakdown :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
