RE: No freedom at Pelangi Village Government Welfare Homes!

Dear Mr Chua,

Thank you for your email. Welfare Homes are gazetted under the Destitute Persons Act for the reception, care and rehabilitation of destitute persons.  For the safety and rehabilitation of residents, activities and programmes are scheduled and there is close supervision by staff.  Residents able to care for themselves would be granted more liberty to go out of the Home for work or to attend to personal matters.

Warmest regards,

No freedom at Pelangi Village Government Welfare Homes!

Dear Sir/Mdm,

I wish to inform you that in Pelangi Village Government Welfare Homes, there is no freedom, that's Singaporeans who are sent there by Ministry of Social and Family Development, cannot go out on their own.

 

If there is a single individual (human being) in Singapore who has no freedom, then I think we should speak up for him or her or whatever.

 

The place which I mentioned is at:
