Dear HDB,

Has the queue for HDB rental flats ended?

If it still has a long queue then why they are not given priority for these flats (Blocks 32 and 33 Toa Payoh Lor 5) even these flats are being used for short-term rental? If the queue has ended then why HDB need to build 7,500 units of new rental flats in the next 3 years?

According to your reply at 11 Jan 2010, these flats will be demolished, they are less suitable for HDB's Public Rental Scheme as the tenants would then have to move in a few years time. Does it mean those currently waiting for a rental flat will no need to move from the place they are staying now when they get their new rental flat from HDB?

According to your reply for Mr Leong Sze Hian at
http://www.todayonline.com/Voices/EDC100113-0000022/Priority-given-to-truly-needy
(Subject: Priority given to truly needy, Date: 13 Jan 2010), the flats cited by Mr Leong are no different from flats available for open market rental. Any person, Singapore citizen or otherwise, can also rent similar flats from the open market without waiting. If this is true, then why HDB not asking the foreign workers rent similar flats from the open market and let the poor Singapore citizens to rent these two flats with rents as low as $26 per month?

Why HDB must rent the flat to you?

Who U?

You are so big shots, sio big mouth and so demanding. Serve you right for being poor and having to find tiny flat to stay.

Why so hopeless and useless? You should feel shameful of your behavours.

English can wirte until so good, still cannot find 3 meals and a roof?

Waste time finding faults.

Who gives you the right to QUESTION people?

So what if HDB doesnt want to rent the flat to you?

This type of no big no small, got eyes no see Tarzan, no IQ no EQ people all end up like you. hahaahaa......... Sky got eyes.

Don’t over use the term “priority”.
Next time, there will be someone claiming that Singaporean must have the priority to take a seat on the bus and MRT.

The onlinecitizen website always like to dig out this kind of things, which is actually nothing.

Onlinecitizen is VERY GOOD AT OVER-EXAGGERATING issues.

Dont have to bother with them. THEY HAVE A MOTIVE BEHIND ALL THEIR POSTINGS - TO FIND FAULT WITH THE GOVT AND TO BLAME THE GOVT FOR CITIZENS' OWN FAULT AND OWN PLIGHT.

If you are poor, go and do something to make more money.

Poor people every countries have. Not only Singapore.

Disable and poor old people need help, not poor people.

Poor people all have the same characteristics:

Idle, lazy (nice word is contented), inflexible, got brain but never use or never use.

Do these people deserve help? NO

The more you help, the more they become lazy.

Rice comes open mouth, Money comes stretch out hand.

Black Heart says, the govt should send their earth cow to chase these people out.

(Dont say I black heart)

Hahaha......... TOC TOC , the homeless now are cursing you....... hahahha.
=======================

These people are lazy, that's why they are homeless. If they study hard when at school, don't play guitar at void deck and marry so young, sure they could have better lives. But of course, these minority people cannot be helped. Foever lazy people. No need to pity them. this online citizen also kaypo and make a big deal about them.

i thot i saw some already, dun worry, prc are used to sleep on the street, the problem is our peoples, the true singaporeans, cannot take hardship and hardknocks in life.

likeyou SG

I disagreed with "cannnot take hardship and hardknocks in life"

Depends on which groups of workers you are referring to.

Cannot simply say spoeans are like that.

Cannot see 1 bad egg, all are bad eggs.

angel7030 SG

i see it that way, few bads will lead one to join them..that is life.

you work hard, other seat around, and then later PRC or FTs come in to work and get promoted at a lower cost, all others laugh at you, in the end, you joined them, heckcare so much and life goes on

Howlheje SG

ALL Singapore is interested in is to SHOW THE WORLD AT LARGE what a beautiful place it is AT THE EXPENSE of the poor and homeless.

LOL!!!!

The reply from HDB:

I refer to your email dated 16 Jan 10.

2 As mentioned in our earlier reply, there is already a block of flats, i.e Blk 28 Lor 6 Toa Payoh, which has been set aside for the Interim Rental Housing. These flats, which would eventually be demolished, are offered to rental applicants who need interim accommodation while waiting for the allocation of a 1- or 2-room flat under the Public Rental Scheme.

3 We thank you for your feedback.

Yours sincerely,

SIM HWEE HUA (MS)
AG HEAD, RENTAL HOUSING POLICY & PLANNING UNIT
HOUSING ADMINISTRATION DEPARTMENT
==========================================

So what next, Mr Joker ?

=======================================================

Does it mean Blk 28 Lor 6 Toa Payoh (only 1 block) 100% would be enough for all of the applicants in the long queue wating for HDB rental flats?

If it is then this block should be a huge block! The largest block in this world! Am I right? Has it been recorded as the world record? Then Singapore has one more record of the first at this world!

And when will reply for:

Those currently waiting for a rental flat have to move from the place they are staying now when they get their new rental flat from HDB?

Will HDB ask foreign workers rent similar flats from the open market?
