Saying Alot about Nothing

The Art of Saying Alot About Nothing
Civil servants must have been taught to be politically correct and safe when they respond to complaints. They are capable of saying a lot about nothing, leaving the men the in street confused, and too embarrassed to ask, "What you mean?".

Someone asked, of the public apartments, why they are high in price, and small in size.
And here's the reply that says alot about nothing:

"In pricing new flats, takes into account the location, floor area, design features, finishes, lease tenure, as well as the prevailing market prices of comparable resale flats...To cater to households with different incomes, offers different types of flats with prices that vary according to location, design tuype and size."

If you are reading it, submit your favourite and I will have it compiled into a book called "The Art of Saying alot about nothing". This will be an essential textbook for all civil servants.
