I was dismayed to read about the big cleanup after the New Year countdown party ("After Marina Bay's big party, it's the big cleanup"; Jan 2).
I am glad the amount of rubbish left behind this year has reduced, but I am sure we can do better.
Singaporeans need to step it up and bin their rubbish, instead of leaving it behind, thinking a cleaner will clean up after them.
This year, let us aspire to be the cleanest country in the world.
