Thanks for all ur concern..... 我不是在批评新加坡 只是觉得很感伤 在新加坡那么严格守法 讲求处处重罚及法律 的国家里 还会有这样的人存在~~~而且不是少数 这~~不也让人觉得失望及可笑吗???

I’m a Taiwanese working in Singapore. My husband and I just got our new home renovated, but realized the renovation company used “ FAKE” Paint. We felt really helpless and has no one to turn to. Just want to share my story. The company we chose is "Lourve” and they are not cheap. the designer is called Dennis and when we discussed about what paint to be used, we specifically chose ICI "light and space" and "all in one", to be painted in the kitchen and all other walls respectively. Then he quoted us $1700 for the area of 1400 sqft. I am very particular about the paint because I’m very sensitive to the smell and certain chemicals. Exposure to them will cause my skin to develop rashes and my heart to beat very fast. Thus we don’t mind spending more money to get the ICI green label paint because it is supposed to be very environmentally friendly, without the chemicals I’m allergic to. To my horror, during the handing over, we realized they used "Maxilite" paint instead of what we asked for. We found out because the workers were careless enough to leave behind the "Maxilite" paint bucket, with the code number of ICI "all in one" and "light and space" pasted on it. We felt so cheated and we lodged a complaint directly to the ICI main office, only to be brushed off with the reply: “even if Maxtlite paint was used, all the chemicals and smell will be gone after one week” And when confronted, Lourve offered to repaint our house using the paint we wanted, but that means we have to move out and how inconvenient will that be! We do not understand how this could have happened. We were told by the representative from ICI that we are not the first victims of such practice. These companies try to rip consumers off by shamelessly using regular "Maxilite" paint to pull off as “all in one" or other Green label paint, and usually people will not notice the difference. ICI obviously know that this is an ongoing practice but they are not about to do anything about it? How could this be? Even though this is a case of frad, it is too minor for lawyers to entertain. We went to CASE too but have to wait for 3 months We finally decided to give up and accept the compensation of a mere $500 from Lourve. I would never expect this to happen in a law abiding country like Singapore. When consumers get cheated like that, it is so difficult to seek justice! I can’t help feeling, how is this different from the China milk powder case that killed so many babies? Just because using poor quality paint will not cause death doesn’t mean people should treat it lightly. If I had stayed over night in the house when it was freshly painted, I could very well be lying in the hospital! Other than feeling extremely upset, I am also losing faith in Singapore. Just want to share my experience with all of u who are reading, and hope you guys will not be cheated like we were.

我是个台湾人，因为工作的关系住在新加坡快五年 ’刚买了房子装修完，发现新加坡设计公司(装修公司)给我们"假的"油漆， 我们真的投诉无门，希望大家评评理 我们选了一间不便宜的设计公司"Lourve，设计师Dennis在与我们讨论油漆时我们选择了ICI "light and space" 还有"all in one"二种油漆分别涂在厨房跟所有其它的地方，总共报价1700 大概只有1400平方尺的空间，因为我本身对於油漆味及一些化学原料过敏，全身会开始起红疹，心跳加快 所以我们愿意付高价选择ICI标榜低VOC的二个有环保标章的油漆，却没有想到房子在交屋的过程，我们发现他们 竟然给我们的是"Maxilite"油漆!!明明是Maxilite的油漆桶，却贴上"all in one"或者是"light and space"的油漆编号标签， 我们深感被骗!! 我与老公二个人直接找ICI总公司的人投诉，得到的回应竟然是"就算用的是maxilite的油漆， 油漆干掉后的一星期，就不会再有味道及化学原料散出"而打发了我们， 而Lourve公司又说如果我们真的在意，那可以请我们搬出去，他们会派人重新涂上一层我们要的油漆！ 我们不知道到底是哪里出了问题，会让ICI明明知道这种油漆公司会拿"Maxilite"的油漆假装是"all in one".... 或其它有环保标章的产品来贩卖给消费者，却无能为力，无法可管!!!而我们也不是在新加坡第一件发生这样事情的消费者 在大律师不愿意接这种虽然是欺骗案子却是小案例，去case要等三个月之下 纵使我们握有证据及ICI的化验报告 我们只能放弃追诉，并接受此L公司的"小小赔偿"，我们万万没有想到在法律甚严，人人守法的新加坡会发生这样的 欺骗消费者事件，这和之前中国不肖商人卖假奶粉毒死很多的婴儿有什么两样??只是用不好的油漆毒不死人，所以没有人 愿意在意~~而我们除了痛心也对新加坡愈来愈失去信心!!!
