Letter - Additional Parking

Dear Editor,

With reference to your article "Additional Parking", I disagree with the writer and would like to state that the land bank is well kept and maintained.

I own a unit facing the land bank. A year ago, it was true that the grass was allowed to grow wildly. Even so, it did not appear unkempt but rather serene since it is green. But of late, the land bank has been well kept and it is such a pleasure and relaxing to look out the window and see a patch of green outside.

In addition, the magnificent trees, with birds chirping in the morning and the moon peeping through the foliage on moonlit nights, are a sight so calming and reflective. I think it should be pointed out that quite a few of the units bought by residents here was due to this green field fronting them.

Hence, I vehemently object to the idea for converting the lovely patch of green outside my unit for a car park. Let us save some green field in anyway we can, however small an area, for our future generation!
