HDB's Flawed Policy Direction

another reason is verious PAP ministers denial about the PRs effect on spiralling HDB prices. although PRs might not necessary be the highest bidders /winner...

The CNA interview of Minister Mah was nothing more then a set-up to polish the deteriorating public image of the minister in preparation for the expected elections.

There was a PAP Member of Parliament to distract the hard questions posed by a third guest - who was a Housing Agent - while the moderator was no more then another distraction to guide the entire staged event for the minister.

Can the HDB unit be used as a source of income for one who retires - when there are so many sticky rules governing rental ?

Only a week ago, an HDB unit was repossessed by the HDB for breach of the rental guidelines - and nothing was further mentioned if the HDB owner received any market rate compensation based on current valuation.

In the period before 1957, when the British Colonial Government was still governing Singapore - our forefathers had more liberties and choices in housing, whether to live in the rural areas or in the city.

A young graduate can own a house within the first year of his working life, and need only to take a housing loan for no more then 10 years, and begin to save for his retirement in the next 15 years of his working life to enjoy full retirement at 55.

Since the PAP got into power in 1957, despite all the direct intervention of the PAP in the lives of Singaporeans - from family planning to education, from health to racial quotas in public housing, from jobs to CPF for retirement - Singaporeans are living in a deteriorating quality of life compared to our forefathers under Colonial Rule.

The PAP needs to have Singaporeans fully dependent on their talent - to have all Singaporeans living in HDB estates - so as to contribute to the huge annual surplus that this government claims to have the talent to produce.

It begins with moving Singaporeans staying in HDB estates - and the milking process starts to drain the financial resources of Singaporeans into the PAP Government Treasury.

Is it any surprise that this PAP Government can report glowing annual surplus - when Singapore do not export as much as Hong Kong or Taiwan or even South Korea - and Singapore has a ‘Foreign Exchange Reserve’ that is higher than all these countries ?

Uncle, why alway mingle on those old days, let move on. We rather be independent than be dependent on those colonial white master ya. And when we obtained independent, we must work hard and show to the work that Singapore, a small country without any natural resources can survive. And indeed not only we survived, we also progress ourselves much better than most big country who have natural resources and lands. And if you ask British to come and colonise us again now, they will be most glad to take over...covert yr Reserve to British Pounds and send back to their Queen Chest. Please, please...let move on from here for a cheaper, better and faster Singapore.

Thank you

Thank you

If you do not know anything about Singapore's past - are you qualified to speak about Singapore's present and future ?

Stay out of Singapore politics and you will not be insulted repeatedly.

Can Singaporeans depend on foreigners like you with the intelligence of a Taiwanese 'hum' begin and end at its ‘Labia Majora’ and ‘Labia Minora’ ?

All you are capable of is to indulge in rapturous idiocy - can anything of any substance flow from your hopeless brain that is no bigger then the size of your ‘clitoris’ ?

angel7030 SG

I know, i studied modern Singapore History and gets a 3 grade in my O level ok.

But past is what make today, and what we do today will determine the future, so it is very important to concentrate on the present so that the future will be brighter ya, and not to mingle much on the past.

By the way, singapore only have a short history, everyday keep repeating, i never study for history (jump class go shopping and watch movies) also can pass

You will benefit Singapore if you not only jump class but jump out of the school window and it will be one foreigner less.

Your intelligence begins and end at its ‘Labia Majora’ and ‘Labia Minora’ - which only help with your useless indulgence in rapturous idiocy.

...my class in that Haig girl high school was down stair, my landed house just opposite only, ya, u r rite, i jump our of the window, outside the window is a garden, from the garden we reach a fench which someone had cut a rabbit hole out of it, then from there we run away...go catch butterfly..so happy during those days..hmmm

Atobe SG

Is anyone interested in your personal history ?

Is it any surprise that the Taiwanese 'hum' will flap its ‘Labia Majora’ and ‘Labia Minora’ in rapturous idiocy - just to attract attention to itself as an 'Attention Seeking Whore' ?

everyone knows the hdb policy is full with flaws. that why they keep changing and changing , bend here and there. but until now, they still cannot rectify the problems. i pity the agents also. if they got caught by the change in laws, they held responsible for it. but when govt policy are caught with so many flaws, no one held responsible for it.

transparency is the problems. if transparency is not upheld in all govt ministeries and minister alike, complaceny will result in more future more potent flaws that will drag singapore into the abyss!!

that why more singaporeans are going aust and NZ.

i also heard many singaporean are marying malaysian woman to migrate there when they are old!!

angel7030 SG

oh, then Singaporean gal like me marry to who leh???? all singaporeans men go NZ, OZ, malaysia, taiwan, thailand and part of China to marry there...left only Bangala, chinamen and indian men here....aiyo, cham liao...

Atobe SG

Which part of your CBM are you now using - the outer ‘Labia Majora’ or the inner ‘Labia Minora’ ?

Do we need to indulge you with your irrelevant idiocy that flows from your hopeless brain that is no bigger then the size of your ‘clitoris’ ?

I think one of the main problems is that the real wages of the general population is not rising in tandem with the rise in prices of HDB flats.

And if you have to divert the majority of your money to financing the purchase of the flat for 20-30 years, you have very little left for retirement and savings.

You nail the issue headon! transparency! Subsidies, price of building a flat and land cost. Factors that are still shrouded.

I hope in future elections if a new leader could provide public housing pricing public housing for the 85% singaporeans and scrap COE and ERP. Just limit the COE based on 1st come 1st serve basis , no need price the COE. Also, allocate certain number for business and non-business eg. 70:30 allocation.

can still limit the number of cars on the road without any cent.

Its not like the COE solved traffic congestion problem.

If it did, all countries in the world would have implemented it. as simple as that.

The issue of rising real wage in tandem with rising price of HDB flat may look politically sound. But not economically.

If we take the perfect scenerio where real wage rises in tandem with rising flat price, sustains over a long period of time. What next?

We will be faced with a diminishing lease conversely with a mushrooming price.

Will future Singaporean be happier living with a leasehold of 10 years or less with price tag of $2 millions?

As smart as you are, you fail to see the exploitation part of the govt, as long as wage lag behind housing price, peoples will have to work forever, that is the objective of the govt, so, how can they allow peoples wages be in tandem with housing prices?

There are many ways to slavery and the worst one is silence slavery, slave until you also dunno what is happening.

If that is what you want a new leader to do, i think corruption will set in.

The Taiwanese 'hum' is no more then a sly hypocrite in this Speaker's Corner - supporting the PAP Government in the other thread in the call for Singaporean workers to improve their skill - and chastising Singaporeans for not taking up the call, while hypocritically explaining in this thread the reasons for the PAP Government reluctance to tie wages to housing prices.

Do we need a Taiwanese 'hum' to spell out the obvious as if Singaporeans are dumb and dim witted ?

If corruption can be created by providing cheap housing and scrapping all the social and economic straight jackets that the PAP Government has created to generate revenues for themselves - the Taiwanese 'hum' is obviously a foreigner that is ignorant of what life was before it even existed on our shores.
