Dear Sir,
Knox City Council – Reference Aged Care
I recollect that the Aged Care was to be given to private
industries to introduce competition. While the government has the right to
decide, it is disappointing to note that the GOA wants to save money from aged
care.
“Seniors built this nation, while the children will
build the nation furthermore in the future”
I had several trips and falls within my yard at various times
of the day due to old age. Cats and possum issues are disgusting in Rowville. People
want to have pets but they do not want their pets to poo in their backyards. It
has become our duty to pick up poos of walking cats within our yard and on nature’s
strip every day. Please forgive me for bringing this up. KCC should decide about
the cats and dogs, please.
Aged Care
I needed help and KCC Helped me to have some services like
home service, gutter cleaning etc. I had to stop cos of the Corona pandemic.
This year I need some support safety railing in the front
steps and backyard steps. I spoke to Maria and she was quite helpful and courteous
and promised to address the issue.
Recently Grace called me and said that I should find my own
OT and get the job done. She was quite rude and bossy. I request, politely that
Governments service staff could be courteous, friendly, and polite with Senior
citizens, not rude and bossy. KCC could have let me know in writing if they can’t
do the job.
Me and my wife are orphans as I do not have a father, mother,
brother or sister in Australia. I have nowhere to go for help and consider that
Government is responsible for our safety. KCC should not read this as
threatening or intimidating, however, as a polite appeal, please.
Where can I go, Sir? I am an Australian and Australia is responsible for its
citizens, please.
Thanking you.
Yours Obediently
Kanthar Balanathan
