Let's clean up the country

This letter is in reference to the news “When system fails” published in TDS on January 4, 2015. It was so heartening to see the volunteers cleaning up the streets being frustrated by the authorities' oblivion. I really hope others will learn from them and develop a civic sense and stop throwing rubbish and litter everywhere. Not littering the streets is half the battle won. Cities in all our neighbouring countries' are cleaner and well taken care off than ours.
Thanks to the volunteers for their work.
