Several instances of public urination near the road despite the availability of public toilets within the station have been witnessed
SINGAPORE: Residents living near the Little India MRT station have expressed growing concerns about large gatherings of foreign workers in the area every weekend, citing issues related to noise, littering, and public safety.
“They sit on the ground, bring food and drinks, and set up loudspeakers to play music,” he explained. “It’s not just loud talking; they even sing and dance when they feel like it.” Residents have also been concerned about the accumulation of litter. According to Mr Deng, food remnants and disposable tableware are often left behind, creating a significant mess.
Residents say the gatherings typically start around lunchtime and continue until late at night, with some lasting until 10 pm. However, as life has returned to normal, the weekend gatherings have resumed, and, according to him, the situation is getting worse.Residents have formed groups to discuss the issue and explore possible solutions. But despite attempts to address the issue through petitions and increased cleaning efforts, the problem persists.
