I would like to express my
compliments and gratitude to the
Security Department at Capital Tower.
Last October, I fractured my right
ankle and needed to go through an
operation. I went back to work at the
end of December 2007, but had not
fully recovered. I travelled to work via
taxi daily as I could not walk, and
needed to use the wheelchair to move
around. When I arrived and left the
building each day, the team of friendly,
polite and dedicated security guards
at Capital Tower would always come
over to help the taxi driver with my
wheelchair, hold the taxi door open
for me, and keep me safe from traffic
whilst wheeling me to and from the
lift lobby.
Through my daily interaction with the
team of security guards at Capital
Tower, I realised that they are very
dedicated to their jobs and are great
examples of what it means to "go the
extra mile" in service. They repeatedly
told me that it is perfectly fine to help
me as helping those in need and
keeping them safe is part and parcel
of their job. I find this very
commendable indeed.
Although I am up and walking now,
but still limping a little, whenever the
security guards see me they still give
me their best regards. I truly
appreciate what they have done for
me as one can be pretty helpless and
dependant when one is not able to
walk and has to move about
frequently. To the Security Department
at Capital Tower - thank you for all
the help and keep up the good work!
Best regards,
Vivian Cheah

CapitaLand officially launched its "Building A Greener Future" programme on 15 May
2008 at Raffles City Singapore. Dr Yaacob Ibrahim, Minister for the Environment and
Water Resources, was the Guest-of-Honour at the event.
Speaking at the launch event, Mr Liew Mun Leong, President and CEO of CapitaLand
Group said, "CapitaLand is happy to use its extensive real estate footprint to help spread
the green message to as many individuals as possible."
The "Building A Greener Future" programme comprises a series of green initiatives to
engage staff, tenants, shoppers, schools and the general public to adopt a greener
lifestyle. The CapitaFrog mascot was specially created to help spread this message to
the community. |

Two green initiatives were launched in May 2008. One initiative was the placing of
customised recycling bins for waste paper, metal and plastic at CCT's buildings in
Singapore to encourage tenants to recycle. In another initiative, over 100,000 re-usable
CapitaLand Green Shopping Bags which came with loyalty cards were given out.
On 10 July 2008, a third green initiative, the "Green for Hope" project, was launched.
Aimed at encouraging primary school students to recycle and help their needy classmates,
the project was open to all primary schools in Singapore. CapitaLand has set a target
for the participating schools – to collect 875,000 kilogrammes of recyclable waste. For
every kilogramme of recyclable waste collected, CapitaLand Hope Foundation, the
philanthropic arm of CapitaLand, will donate S$2. The estimated donation of S$1.75
million will be deposited into the schools' welfare funds to help needy students with their
education expenses. |
