Hi there

I hope you're not feeling too flustered by the few comments I've left on your talk page so far. There are a few issues to be dealt with. Let me put it to you simply:
 * From your edits and your username, you appear to be working for or on behalf of PUB. Do take a moment to note the conflict of interest guidelines.
 * Your username is not appropriate in view of our username policy. Do take a moment to review, and request a change at WP:UNC.
 * WP is not a platform for public relations; the goal is to write an encyclopedia. Wholesale copying of your (presumably) websites like http://www.siww.com.sg/ violates copyright. Furthermore, the tone is promotional, and not suitable for a neutral, encyclopedic article. See WP:NPOV This applies for NEWater and Public Utilities Board as well.

Do take a moment to consider these issues. If you need help, you can contact me on my talk page, or you can place here and someone will be over shortly. Happy editing. --Rifleman 82 (talk) 18:58, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
