Fly your National Flag now!

Singapore's National Day, August 9th, is coming around again. Singaporeans are strongly encouraged to display the national flag outside their homes ahead of National Day celebrations.

Like every year, Rainbow Ville Resident's Committee has reserved a few weekends to put up the flags in our precinct to display our love and patriotism for Singapore.



If you have not displayed your National flag yet, please get into the act now to show your love for our country by flying the flag.



Some pics to share with you....

Not an easy task to work under the scorching sun! A BIG thank you to Mr Soon Wan Leng & Mr Chua Cheng Hock for waiting patiently at the basket ball court for the flag to lower down from 25th storey.

We have a great sea-view from the top floor!

We have a nice partial Bedok Reservoir view too!

Our effort paid off!

We hope to see more members come to join in the fun next weekend. C'ya!

Lift Upgrading Programme (LUP) Polling Results for Blk 401 to 404 Bedok North Ave 3

With changing lifestyles and aging population, direct lift access has become a priority. Our precinct has been selected for the Lift Upgrading Programme (LUP). Polling was conducted for eligible voters from 25 Jun 2010 (Friday) to 28 Jun 2010 (Monday).

We are pleased to announce that we have achieved an average of 95% votes in favour of the LUP. Residents can look forward to greater convenience with lifts that give them direct access to their homes.

Heartbeat of The East - Bedok P1

The three sites at Bedok, Yishun and Jurong West are from the confirmed list under the government land sales (GLS) programme in the second half of the year. The Housing & Development Board (HDB) is handling the tenders.

Of these sites, the 99-year-lease one at New Upper Changi Road/Bedok North Drive attracted the most attention because it can house a commercial-residential development which will be integrated with a bus interchange.

The 2.49 hectare site is at Bedok Town Centre, next to Bedok MRT Station, and is surrounded by amenities such as supermarkets and a library. It has a maximum permissible gross floor area (GFA) of 938,157 square feet and can yield an estimated 475 dwelling units.

DTZ South-east Asia research head Chua Chor Hoon believes this plot is the most attractive of the three because it is centrally located in a well populated town. Also, 'there are only a few mixed sites available at the heart of HDB estates in the GLS programme', she said.
