Sorry guys, these lots are not for you

Q1) What were some of the reasons cited in the article why there was a need to have parking lots for women only in these buildings?

This is to let woman feel a bit safer parking nearer to the entrance and to make it less tiring for them when they are in heels.

Q2a)In your opinion, do you think it is necessary to allocate parking lots for women only? Why?

I feel that it is extremely unnecessary to give them "VIP seats". First of all, it is no fair to men. I believe that in Singapore as a place with high security and low crime rates. Women would feel safe with high security and low crime rate. In multi-storey car parks, there are lifts. There is no reason to be less tiring as most of the exit is just few metres away. It is unfair for men as they have not reason to work extra harder in this equality state. Therefore, I do not think it is necessary for parking lots to women.

Q2b)Which group of people do you then feel should be allocated such priority parking? Explain.

I feel that family with children ten and below or elderly above sixty-five should have such priority parking. It would be troublesome to bring children around or elderly around as children have no patience and the elderly had trouble in walking. These seats should be reserved instead for women only.

Help for single mum in downturn

Q1 What project was launched to help single mum?

As single mum is increasing, the project "WeCare for U" was launched. This project helps single mum to help face the current downturn, to find jobs or make use of their skills to help themselves to earn a living.

Q2) Imagine you come across a single mum is unemployed, what are some advices you can give? Who can she turn to?

I will recommend the project "WeCare for U" to her. I can also teach whatever I know to her and maybe she can make use of the skills to make a living. However, I will still want her to go because it is more effective to ask from a trained councellor than a non-trained person.
