'DENGUE CLUSTER AT FARRER ROAD CONDO'(The Straits Times Friday,June 16 2006, HOME Cover Page)Write 4 reviews in the holidays, 1 per week.

My feelings:
After reading this article, thanks to the irresponsible residents, I no longer feel safe in Singapore. Especially with those mosqitoes around. I mean, which sane person in this world would feel safe living so close with dengue mosqitoes?

Instead of regretting their mistakes, these residents blamed instead on the construction workers working nearby on the new Circle Line MRT outside their condo, which goes to show how irresponsible and selfish they are. After giving out so many pamphlets and fliers to the residents, they should have been more careful already. To think officers could find, just in one flowerpot alone, one hundred larvae of the dengue-carrying Aedes mosqitoes!

Through this incident, I hope that Singaporeans would be more careful now. I also hope that officers would redouble their efforts in controlling these dangerous mosqitoes.
