say no to a columbarium next to our future home!

We respect the dead. However, we hope that the govt can respect the living. A columbarium in a highly densely populated estate is not appropriate for many reasons. 

In the Chinese culture, many shun upon living near the dead. Also, the noise and smoke (if burning is present) is bad environment to stay in. 

The building of temple for such use is only make known after the flats have been balloted. This is extremely unfair as 90% of the people will probably not select these units if known. 

I believe that a more appropriate place could be used for such purpose. And since we are the main residents staying in that area, our voices should be heard. Creating a condusive environment for living i believe not only involves providing us with infrastructure and shelter over roof but also include considering the wishes of residents when building such sensitive facilities.
