This means war - or at least that's what this resident thinks of the design theme of a neighbourhood in Tampines.
'Terribly distasteful': Tampines resident urges removal of 'war-like' plane designs on block, MP Baey Yam Keng responds
Baey stated that the resident emailed their town council to complain about the repainted blocks, claiming that it was an "attempt to disguise warplanes". "After discussing with the town council, checking with some residents and grassroots leaders, and thinking through it, I support the town council's decision to stick to the original design concept," he asserted.
"It would not be fair to the majority to change the design now," Baey said. "I understand that the resident was not involved with the voting as he does not live in this cluster of blocks." Recalling his reaction to the email, he said that it had made him wonder if this complaint was a more common view than expected, because the resident had mentioned that "a few residents felt the same".
