Unable to get up again after taking a hard fall to the floor, an elderly man living alone in the Jalan Kukoh area called his church friend for help. When the latter arrived, the man surnamed Chin, who is in his 70s, was trapped in the kitchen of his cluttered two-room flat and could not open the locked door to let his friend in, reported Shin Min Daily News on Wednesday (July 3). The friend, Terry, managed to use a hook to retrieve Chin's house keys through the open window.  Terry found the elderly man lying on a very messy floor and called an ambulance.  While Chin was in the hospital, Terry thought of cleaning up his home, but realised he could not do so alone due to the large amount of clutter. He then contacted charity organisation Helping Joy, which helps hoarders declutter, on June 18. Volunteer Irene Woon told Shin Min that 25 volunteers decluttered and cleaned the flat on Sunday (June 30). They cleared about six to seven large bins of items from Chin's home, she added. In a Facebook post on Monday, Helping Joy shared photos of the flat before and after it was decluttered and cleaned.

Is this form of artistic expression creative or plain weird? Well, either way, it certainly has sparked conversations. Over the weekend, a banner was put up at the foot of Pinnacle@Duxton along Cantonment Road, encouraging passers-by to stare at the windows of the homes above. It reads: «Choose one apartment window above to look at. Keep staring until the inhabitant catches you staring.» Look closer and you will find, in smaller print, that it is a part of a public art initiative by the Singapore Art Museum (SAM). There is also a QR code where participants can leave their feedback. But it has made some residents at the HDB estate a little uneasy, Shin Min Daily News reported. 'It all feels weird'  Resident Huang Xizhen (transliteration) said that she was aware of the banner, but added that she would feel harassed if strangers were to stare at her window from outside. «It does not matter if it's just looking or being stared at. It all feels weird,» said the 35-year-old. «I hope this form of art doesn't affect others.»
