1: Saving the Walkway

The photos show the Walkway from the end of Jalan Isnin leading down to Shunfu Road.
The Walkway has been in existence for more than 20 years, beginning from a footpath down the slope, and then improved upon over the years, culminating in this present state of convenience to a host of Thomson Garden residents:
1: Kindergarten children being led down the Walkway by their mothers and maids to a PA Community   Kindergarten below @ Shunfu Precinct,
2: Working adults use it to go to the nearby Marymount Station of the MRT Circular Line, 
3: Housewives use it to go to Shunfu Mart to buy food to cook for their families,
4: The elderly use it to access the shuttle bus service below to connect with other transport services to AMK Polyclinic
5:  Children & young adults use it to go to Thomson CC for Karate lessons, & other community activities.

But now it is in danger of being lost as Shunfu Ville next door is going on an enbloc sale and potentially seeking to annex/demolish  it to enhance their land development.

Surely, after a long history of use, even before Shunfu Ville was built, the residents of Thomson Garden have a moral right to continue using it.

The question now is: Who can help to create a win-win solution to both parties?
