Woodlands Civic Centre - Limitations and Suggestions

As mentioned by Ms Suji in her interview, people tend to go about their own work nowadays, instead of observing and taking in things going on around them. Especially where economic activities are concentrated, people are more concerned about themselves than others, which although is a human instinct, limits the effectiveness of common space in Woodlands Civic Centre. There are only few facilities with social activites and only those who visit the library or the CDC will step up to use the opportunities created by the physical common space. Hence, I suggest that attractive information booths should be put outside of the library and CDC so that even people who do not visit those places are aware of events and become curious to learn more. Even parents who are waiting for their kids to return from their enrichment classes can sign up for such events if publicity was better.
