SINGAPORE - Food delivery rider Shahrulnizam Ramli, 32, used to take his two children, aged four and five, out cycling around his Tampines Housing Board estate every weekend.
But he is worried that doing so now would risk a fine of up to $5,000, after the introduction of a rule banning the use of personal mobility devices (PMDs), bicycles and power-assisted bicycles in all common properties in HDB estates.
