Renovation & Repair Contractor Who Preys on HDB Residents (Part 2)

It has been a really busy year for me & i really do not have time to sit down to write a proper blog for quite sometime. I have been preoccupied with lots of research & experiments & apart from eating, sleeping & going to toilet, i hardly have time for anything else. But recently, some incident had happened that prompted me to hit the keyboard again - not to write my journal paper, but to write a blog to update u guys of the above-mentioned title. To recall what has happened, please click here to recall.

On the 7th October 2011 (Friday), i received a comment on one of my blog posts from a blogger called Green Dragon in regards to a HDB (Housing & Development Board)-registered renovation contractor cheat. He told me that the company owner of ATRIA Interior Art Decor is still at large & continues to prey on old & defenseless housewives at around the Serrangoon area. I think he not only operates at Serrangoon, but also at Ang Mo Kio area too because i got a friend called Celestine, whose mum got conned last year lives in Ang Mo Kio. That idiot stays in Yishun thou at Block 712, whose name is called Sim Wee Kiong (Freddy) (IC no. S7302910D), around 38 years old. Celestine had already made a police report at Ang Mo Kio Police HQ, but seems that our Singapore police is not doing anything to apprehend this idiot. I heard from Celestine that when she called the police again one week after making the report for any updates, the police who answered her said that 'this is not a police case because the contract is signed & asked Celestine to look for HDB instead'. Later, Celestine called HDB & HDB told her that under their listed of approved & registered contractors, ATRIA Interior Art Decor is not under their list, therefore this case can be classified as a cheating case & should ask the police to handle. But still, nothing has been done by the police till now because that HDB cheat is still at large!!!

Anyway, the blogger Green Dragon arranged for the daily 'Wanbao (晚報)' to come & interview both his mum & Celestine's mum on the 8th October 2011 (Saturday) over their whole ordeal. I did not join their interview because i have some experiments to do for my thesis & is whole day spent inside my lab. The news came out on the following Monday (10th October 2011) on page 2. I was so happy that both old ladies got their sweet 'revenge' & hope that more victims will be more brave & willing to come up & report their cases, otherwise our HDB & Singapore Police will just have time to shake legs & drink coffee, or maybe pushing the case to each other & making the victims go round & round without solutions. I would like to quote something from our variety show 'Huan Le Dian Feng (歡樂巔峰)' spoken from Mark Lee (李国煌):-

沒有事情發生,就在office理面吃花生。
沒有人來投訴,就在office理面喝teh susu。

I have attached the news printout in this blog for everyone to see & take precaution.
