Neighbour disputes Continued efforts to encourage mediation, foster mutual understanding

We thank Mr V. Balu for his letter “Step up community efforts to prevent neighbour disputes from turning violent” (Sept 26).

- 

We are saddened by the recent incident in Yishun Central and extend our deepest condolences and sympathies to the families affected.

We agree with Mr Balu that neighbours should build strong community bonds and be open to dialogue.

To preserve relationships and harmony in the community, it is important for neighbours to attempt to resolve issues by initiating conversations with one another. To achieve this, we encourage neighbours to reach out to one another to resolve issues amicably.
