The sun is shining and it is time to get some chores done. Mum washes the clothes today and hangs it out for the sun to bake them dry. When you come home, you expect to wear fresh, clean and nice smelling clothes.
But no. The clothes you come back to are still wet and dripping.
Wait, is that a black stain? Mum doesn’t wash black and white clothes together. You look up and notice your neighbour’s black pants dripping dye stained water down onto every other resident’s clothes.
That is exactly what a Bedok resident goes through every time she intends to dry her clothes on the poles outside her home.

The original poster had already gone to speak with her neighbour about this issue 10 times, but there was no improvement.
As a result of this neighbour’s behaviour, the entire block of residents living underneath her unit is unable to dry their clothes outside.
What would you do with a neighbour like that?
Formal Complaint
A formal complaint has been lodged to the Housing Development Board (HDB) and together with the town council, a statement was released addressing the issue.
“We urge residents to exercise good neighbourliness and be considerate of fellow residents. This is crucial in building a harmonious living environment for all.”
In the meantime, if you’re facing this problem and needs dry clothes, you can consider indoor drying, because it’s going to be pretty rainy until 2021 comes.
