We have a good chairman and very good ex chairman on the committee thank God. They both asked me to run for a seat and now I know why (they needed some commonsense to help counter the Indian "fine everyone" bitch and a mad Chinese woman who wants to double check every single cent spent on the accounts in every meeting - even is it takes 5 hours).x9200 wrote:For all my years here I have known only one reasonable person from the condo management that it was possible to talk to using logical and common-sense arguments. Sadly but not surprisingly she was recently replaced by the most popular, hard-head-wired robot. Still not that bad as from time to time you can also encounter some arrogant halfwits acting like they would own the whole place with the occupants included.
Access cards have expiry dates tied to EP instead of lease. So, if you signed a new lease with a condo owner and your pass expires 4 months into the lease, you have to apply for a new one, even though your lease isn't up, not until 20 months more.movingtospore wrote:I think we should start a new thread called "what is the stupidest condo rule you've seen in Singapore".
Mine:
1. No shoes within 100cm of the pool (as opposed to 90, or 150, or 77 ...)
2. No eating or drinking by the pool (in spite of the fact there are picnic tables there)
3. No plastic inflatable toys in the pool (WTF!)
4. Sign in the gym, in the empty shelves, where there is an ugly decorative trophy: "This area is under surveillance. Please do not move things from their original position." (I couldn't help myself I deliberate turned the trophy sideways).
Really they just need a rule that says "No throwing food in the pool you stupid Sinkies" - at Calarasi the pool ALWAYS had food in it.movingtospore wrote:I think we should start a new thread called "what is the stupidest condo rule you've seen in Singapore".

Ah that goes into a whole discussion about car park spaces... unlike Australia a strata unit is NOT entitled to a car park space - the car parks are a common area and under the control of the management committee. This carries onto the car park gate access system as you can imagine.Hannieroo wrote:Poor Alfred. Surely everyone who lives there is entitled to one apiece?
