I was at a laboratory in Ang Mo Kio for an X-ray on Jan 22. When my turn came, I entered the X-ray room and was asked to lie down on the table.

I found hair on the pillow provided. The radiographer asked me to flip over the pillow, but the other side had even more hair.

I have written to the management and have not received any reply so far.

I have also highlighted this to the Ministry of Health, which replied that hygiene matters fall under the clinic's purview.

Bingo; we have either no reply or a standard reply! Let us encourage one another to send in feedback! Morons are in today's society. We knew because we have dealt with them in some way or other!; February 02, 2021 5:34 PM

There is one big difference between genius and stupidity; genius has limits.

Things get worse under pressure.

Things go right so they can go wrong.

One can't bear burdens and eighty per cent of all people consider themselves to be above average.

Enough research will tend to support your theory.

Error is often more earnest than truth. Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

Even if the grass is greener on the other side: they, like you, still have to cut it.

Every silver lining has a cloud around it.

Every solution breeds new problems.

The D'Resort team said that room-sharing was the Ministry of Health's (MOH) decision, but when I contacted MOH, it said it was a D'Resort policy.

I hope my predicament will be noted and the matter raised with MOH to avoid pain for those affected in future.

This was caused by the high volume of calls and messages received, which resulted in the office being unable to respond to Mr Ang.)

I called the hotline repeatedly but the only response I have received so far is that the line is engaged. I left a message.
I have been calling the hotline and leaving a voice message "EVERY DAY". As at Wednesday, six days after I dropped my wallet, I have yet to receive any call.

Observers suggest additional scrutiny could come in the form of requiring developers to declare how much they pay agents.

The compelling explanations why do they need support? Is it because it is harder to do businesses now than long ago? You don't hear about all kinds of support during the first and second Prime Minister's time? Vouchers, handouts, baby bonuses, subsidies, grants and cannot keep track. Wah Piang eh. Identify the problems not keep handing out plasters!
