SMU Dean of Students and Professor of Sociology Paulin Straughan and Senior Research Fellow at NUS Institute of Policy Studies Dr Mathew Mathews, yesterday released the results of the Public Cleanliness Satisfaction Survey that was done from late last year to March 2017. The survey results revealed that Singaporeans are generally satisfied with the cleanliness of public spaces like MRT stations and HDB town centres but not so with hawker centres.
Prof Straughan said, "Considering the number of people who frequent hawker centres, it is unlikely that the army of cleaners can keep up with clearing tables and keeping the tables clean without patrons also pitching in."
