YOG BOO HOO...

Well, YOG is over for about a month, and news of it is still making its way to our daily national newspaper, and in the negative way.

The latest 3, the wrong signature was sent to the printer for the certificate of appreciation for the volunteers mind you 45000 copy of it, 2nd the wrong timing was sent to one particular school for the entry to Universal Studio, and 3rd F1 tix. For those who were promised of the Grandstand Ticket to the 1 and only night race in the F1 calendar the Singapore Grand Prix, BELIEVE IT A NOT it arrive 1 day late or for some...have not even received it. Well F1 is over, so they need the ticket for? For a nation like us who are proud of the efficiency we have all these..translate to short of efficiency.

For the first blunder, did anyone check the signature before sending to the printer? And even after it is printed did anyone check the signature before sending out?

The second blunder, doesn't the person at MCYS know the difference between 24hrs and 12hrs clock, if unsure ASK. Trying to act smart by using 24hrs time, but ended up sending 0630 - 2300 instead of 1830 - 2300. Well if this is not a big blunder, what about the F1 ticket.

It was claimed that the tickets were sent out by MCYS latest by wednesday. But how can anyone explain the stamp on the letter shown 24th Sep 10 which is a Friday? Meaning the letter was collected and process on Friday? Lost mail? Then it is a truck load of lost mail. Anyway we all have to wait and see what Singapore Post reply so lets wait and see.

I mean people look up, what is going on? Very very disappointed with the run of events out here. Wrong timing? Maybe. But lets take a look back from the time when we got the YOG. First stadium not torn down or rebuilt into the sports hub like promised, games village changed, 3times the budget, poor allocation of tickets, food poisoning, certificates, timing, and the F1 tickets. Well all this does not add up does it. My question is who is going to bear the additional cost of printing the certificates and resending them? How are they going to please the volunteers who were promised of the F1 tickets? So at the end of the day, is YOG a success like some Doctor have say it? But I guess all these are over-shadowed by India poor preparation of Commonwealth Games, what a good timing right? Hmm..I think it is a SUCCESS if we are compared to India, I rest my case.
