Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

The shopping mall is very convenient, and it is surrounded by China Town. The security is also very good, and the sense of security is sufficient.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

If you have any needs, you can ask the service staff. They are so friendly. I will try my best to help wherever I need it. There are even Chinese-speaking service personnel, which really helps us a lot and saves time in communication.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

I knew that this place had a good location and good security before I moved in.
