Dear Friends,

Rationale for black-tee idea against implementation of triple room

Once the idea of triple room was being brought upon the student leaders, we began by conducting survey¡¯s with students to find out whether the majority are for or against the idea. The results show that the majority even after hearing the school¡¯s rationale for implementation are against the idea of the triple room sharing scheme.

Main reasons are decrease in comfort level (insufficient space in rooms), social issues (difference in culture) and lack of hall amenities (such as toilets, reading room etc). Up till now, the NTU administration has not been able to solve problems that will arise from the implementation of the triple room sharing scheme as stated above as it is not easy to tackle them.

As prospective freshmen are skeptical of the idea of triple sharing, the NTU administration has announced that they are not allocating all triple rooms to freshmen only which means seniors will also be allocated triple rooms.

We have voiced out our concern by showing them statistics and even counter proposing against the idea of triple rooms with the idea of having off-campus accommodation on the basis that off-campus accommodation would not put the student¡¯s welfare at stake. We believe that the idea of triple room sharing is something that many would not like to see being implemented.

As student leaders, we have fought and are still fighting for the welfare of our people. We had done all we can by giving constructive feedbacks and suggestions to the NTU administration but all our attempts have been to no avail. With this, the school will be making their final decision on 26th March. Hence, it is necessary to use other avenues to voice out to the school that majority of the student are against the idea of triple room sharing. As such, we have come up with this event, ¡°My Voice¡± which will be on Tuesday, 25th March. It will be a day for all students to voice out your personal opinions against triple room sharing. We will be appealing to all students to wear black to school and in halls if you are against the triple room sharing scheme.

This is in the hope that after looking at the number of people who are against this idea, we can convince the NTU administration to change their mind for the well-being of the students who are currently living or are considering living in NTU in the future. We appeal to all to voice your opinions through ¡°My Voice¡± to influence NTU¡¯s decision on triple sharing. Together with a common voice and a common cause we can create a better future and most importantly a better tomorrow.



Yours Sincerely,

Hall Presidents Council
