Okay. I'm posting to clarify all matters regarding the unit chalet.
Take note that the decision was made by us only because it was the possible way out.
If everyone does not pay regardless of their attendance, then we would not have a single cent to even book the chalet because about 22 of us in this squad aren't turning up for the unit chalet since most of us are having our class chalets on those days. So if we didn't implement the idea of collecting money regardless of attendance, then we'd simply have not enough capital to even carry this out.
We seriously hope you all would understand that point. It's not easy organising activities like that for the unit because all these disputes happen, especially since we haven't been in touch for a long while. We know $14 is a huge sum to pay for those who're not going and that most of you would feel unhappy, but please, try to understand because our squad will be the organiser for the chalet.
Yes, and even I myself am not going to turn up for all three days of the chalet. On the contrary, Peihao and I are leaving on the morning of the second day once everything has settled down because we're going for our class chalet. So we're not being biased when we want everyone to pay up.
You may ask, why do we not cancel the unit chalet? No doubt, as much as we want to do that, we can't. It has been an ongoing tradition for ages and it wouldn't be appropriate to cancel it.
We just seek your understanding and appeal to all of you to work with us because it really isn't easy to organise a chalet on such a large scale.
Please understand our rationale and I hope this post clarifies everything. It's fine if you have any additional queries to ask me.
Ken.
