Tampines GRC MP Baey Yam Keng said he supported the Tampines Town Council's decision not to change the design on an HDB block after a resident's complaint.

Tampines GRC MP Baey Yam Keng said he supported the Tampines Town Council's decision not to change the design on an HDB block after a resident's complaint.

The resident continued:"It concerns me greatly that drawings and paintings depicting fighter jets or missiles targeting residents were deemed appropriate. This trivialises the severity of global conflicts we face today, suggesting that war and hitting targets are merely a game. "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 for the following reasons."

"I understand that the resident was not involved with the voting as he does not live in this cluster of blocks." The MP also cited another case where the walls were repainted after feedback from residents that the paint job cast an eerie glow into their flats.
