I REFER to Monday’s article “Hope for owners fighting en bloc”. I am a staunch “stayer” in a condo which has tried to go en bloc many times.
There is a saying by Confucius: To have harmony in the nation, there must be harmony at home. Home, to many of us, is one of the most basic and important building blocks of a nation. But with collective sales, what is “home” when a majority can sell yours without your consent?
I do not think this is the type of message we should be instilling in our young: “Your home is your home only until someone else sells it for you – without your consent.”
If every 10 years or so, your home goes on sale en bloc, how do you cultivate the emotional belonging and commitment to the home? Subsequently, without “home”, how are the young going to cultivate the feeling of belonging and commitment to our nation? The young are the future pillars of our nation.
What are we showing our young with the current en bloc situation, whose message seems to be “profit is everything”?

Hi Folks!
Just wanted to share my new experience.
If your system fails to run due to an error corresponding to lost HAL.DLL, invalid Boot.ini or any other critical system boot files you can fix this by using the XP installation CD. Simply boot from your XP Setup CD and enter the Recovery Console. Then run “attrib -H -R -S” on the C:\Boot.ini file and delete it. Run “Bootcfg /Rebuild” and then Fixboot
Cheers,
Carl
