LORONG TAI SENG AREA (Installation of post-box)

Mr Tay Boon Too asked the Minister for Communications if the Postal Services Department will consider installing a large posting box at the junction of Lorong Tai Seng and Upper Paya Lebar Road, after completion of the widening of Upper Paya Lebar Road, in view of the growing population in the Lorong Tai Seng area.

The Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister for Communications (Mr Phua Bah Lee) (for the Minister for Communications): Mr Speaker, Sir, I have been asked by my Minister to answer.

Sir, the Postal Services Department is now checking the number of letters and other mail posted at the existing post-box at the junction of Lorong Tai Seng and Upper Paya Lebar Road. If there is a need for a bigger post-box, it will be installed immediately.
