SMU Assistant Professor of Law and Nominated MP Eugene Tan shared his views on the matter of the "silent majority" finally speaking up. Earlier in June, a group of 500 residents in Mountbatten fought back against their neighbours' opposition to plans for a rehabilitation centre to be built in their estate. The group, made up mostly of elderly residents who live in Blocks 10 and 11 on Jalan Batu, petitioned the Government to stick to its plans to build the centres in the void decks of the two blocks. This came about a month after a group of 130 residents had petitioned for the facilities to be located elsewhere.
