Received an email today from someone. At least I am not alone in finding out how secretive the SSC is. I know how this person feels because I myself encountered many brick walls when I was asking questions.
Hi
I saw your post about the BMX track being closed and I thought I would call the number to ask anyone there about the situation with regards to the BMX track. My son and some of his friends used to ride on that BMX track on a regular basis but now it is closed and totally levelled out. When I called the Singapore Sports Council, I was promised calls from some of their "media" folk but no call came, considering the fact that I left my number for them to call. I asked them how soon the BMX track will be up and why would it be closed till after the Youth Olympic Games I got no answer but the person that took my call was very helpful but only because she had no access to information.
It is almost as if the Singapore Sports Council or SSC do not want to answer questions or evade any questions asked.
My son and his friends do not have any other place to practice. That was the only BMX track, or rather, a resemblance of a BMX track and in land-scarce Singapore, we do not have much choice when it comes to places to ride in. From what I can read in your blog, they are being pretty cagey over this. So much for a professional sports body.
Well, there you have it. Yet another person upset about the lack of communication from the SSC. Keep sending in your mails!
